Hey, I hope you had a good start into the new year. In this tutorial I am explaining you how you can retopologize your high poly mesh and use it in a softbody simulation. 

Here is the link to the free remesher: https://github.com/wjakob/instant-meshes (thanks to Wang & Söderström for that nice tip)

Also interesting: https://github.com/hjwdzh/QuadriFlow

Nice one mate!

Great tips once again! Thanks a lot. Happy 2020!

Great tips mate! Dont use quadriflow. Very limited in polygon count and installation is far from ideal in c4d. At least the version I own. Happy new year!

Hey Vincent. Any tips with softbodies and hair settings ? Ive had some odd issues with redshift and flickering and hair too

Jason James

apparently if you up the retrace threshold under irradiance point cloud it fixes flickering in animation scenes in Redshift.. from rich nosworthy

21:55 - "every one of you is using octane or redshift" - Not true! some of us aren't able to use those just yet. Ha! Hopefully soon though. Tough times. But *****Exxxcellentttt***** tutorial Vincent! Loving it all! This stuff is keeping me sane during these challenging days! :)

Hi Vincent, About your wind setup (at 10:35) I have my guys bumping into each other, but they soon drift apart - if I don’t make them drift apart, they explode from the Attractor. Do you know any other way to get them to tumble like yours? But I’m in R20. Thanks for your thoughts!

I have been trying with Instant Mesher and Quad Remesher it works great on the retopology, but I'm having troubles with the UVs tag. Is there a way to keep the tag? Or how do you adjust the material on Redshift? Triplanar node is not doing much.

Hey Rogelio, you need to create new uvs. I will talk about that a bit in the next tutorial (November)

05 is gone, that was a bonus video. Not a real month.

Hi Vincent ~ I’m a new fan. I always can’t do the hair stuff right , so... how can I get that soft teddy bear look hair on this cover? Is there any tutorial recommended ?

Dondi Dondiego

Hi Vincent!! Cloud you say me how do you do the wind setup at min 10:30? Thx!

vincentschwenk

The wind is directed into the middle and they are in a cloner. Also they have a falloff, so they will always pushed into the center.

Hi Vincent!I want to get this project document

Arjun Kumar

Hi Vincent! Now that C4D has Remesh, I was wondering what are your views on that vs Instamesh or QuadriFlow? What do you recommend?
