The Browser is accessed from the Windows>Content Browser on the top tool bar. The following is an example of how it can be used. MAXON states "the new browser is an integral part of the future workflow of CINEMA 4D". One of the new additions to R9.5 is the Content Browser. For that reason, I suggest going to the Addendum 9.5 and, in the Bookmarks section, investigating those areas that are the most meaningful to you if they differ widely from mine. I am not an animator nor have I yet delved into creating figures for rigging and animating. I enjoy creating still frames, be they landscapes, models for landscapes, etc. It all comes down, to some degree, to the perspective of the reviewer. It is hard to choose which small fixes, improvements, and additions to describe since there are so many. I will be discussing the major new additions to CINEMA 4D R9.5 as well as many of the minor ones that increase the work flow and functionality. When there is no cross reference, the material is new such as the new Content Browser and SKY Manager for example.Īlso, check the CINEMA 4D R9.5 product feature list or from the MAXON site, click on products and, then, CINEMA 4D R 9.5. It will note what changes have been made since release 9 and where in that manual that information is described. The Addendum for release 9.5 is one of the best places to find out what is new in CINEMA 4D R9.5. Not only is the second monitor good for holding menus, but it is also good for holding PDF manuals and tutorials. Once on the MAXON site, click on downloads and, then, documentation to reach this information.Īs an aside, since so many companies are providing manuals in PDF format online, dual monitors come in very handy. If one goes to the MAXON web site, one can find a whole section with manuals for every module as well as an addendum for release 9.5. The modules that comprises the XL bundle are:ĬINEMA 4D R9.5 XL Bundle (not the upgrade) comes with a release 9 disk and tutorial disk, an upgrade to release 9.5 disk and tutorial disk as well as a disk of documentation and two of goodies.

I use a PC under Windows XP Professional. I last reviewed release 8 and a lot has happened in that interim. I will also include some of the features new to CINEMA 4D R9 and R9.1 without confusing them with those new to R9.5 so that users with different releases can see what features would be new to them. While I will concentrate on them, I also will discuss the exciting 3D software package that CINEMA 4D is as a whole. Like always, there are exciting new features in this new release of CINEMA 4D R9.5 XL Bundle.
