Speed increase is great but it seems to be very unstable. I can consistently get it to lock up in C4D 26. For example, simple scene, just environment with HDRI, and cube and activating "Fillet" on the cube while having auto scene update activated. The IPR doesn't update when I do that and if try to do a manual update C4D locks up completely and I have to force close it.

Awesome, thanks!


Dirt node is still not fixed, correct?

Please ask a question, the node editor in version 0.65 of CentiLeoforC4D2023 behaves abnormally, the line pulled out of the left-click property of the node does not show labels such as material or color, only 4 default properties, is this the reason for the C4D setting? This problem is not present in R25, and when 0.64 was tried, it was also present in R26

I will look into the problem. I usuall click "+" button at the top left corner of node window to choose the node. Maxon developers continue doing changes to node editor API and something could change on their end.

You can just re-download the package again to get update with the bugfix

I have looked more precisely into the issue.
1) the feature is available in R25 and below for both CentiLeo and native standard C4D nodes.
2) the feature is not available in R26 for CentiLeo and also not for native, Maxon have simply changed their menus
3) btw CentLeo 0644 was not available for R26

In fact when in R25 you click on the property and move and left-click and see this menu then you don't see all the nodes that can be connected. But in reality you can connect any node to color properties or single float properties such as roughness.

It would be interesting to see an example. And I think if you click "reload scene" button in IPR you can make the same trick without re-openning the window.

May you please send me a minimum example of the scene for investigating in 2023 c4d?

How much I hate the bugs that appear randomly, and not always... So hard to guess wtf with them
The bugs that are localized with a certain algorithm are like a gold. A developer finds them easilly and forget this.
In fact there were a lot of old bugs fixed during 0.65 development, especially that poping artifacts in very low subdivision scenes. The issue was so funny!
Btw, I have already fixes few other bugs (around 3) with emission materials and other things for the next release, that will be released quite soon.

Yes, the combination of UVW nodes can be used for powerfull texturing for sure, especially with the Noise shaders. And we support 20 UVW channels btw, so it's a GPU king of texturing at the moment.
Scathes shader I think will be modified. I personally miss the colored output from it where you can assign scratches with different grey levels to the Gradient and produce the scratches of different colors. E.g. it's don't nicely with the flakes shader
