Title: Can i use keyshot plugin inside cinema 4d like other rendering software ?
Post by: Spartos on February 14, 2017, 08:46:01 AM
I tried out Keyshot render on the character i built. Yeah It's great, But i was wondering if there was an in built keyshot plugin for cinema 4d, something like That of Octane so i can render the animation. :o

We do have a plugin for C4D here: https://www.keyshot.com/resources/downloads/plugins/

But no, you can't use keyshot INSIDE of C4D ala Octane. The plugin exports a bip file to be opened in KS. Or am I wrong?

That's correct, it sends it to KeyShot and does not run inside C4D. Sorry for the confusion.

This was important for me to figure out as well a while ago, as I'm a long time C4D user that is starting to use KS for the javascript web outputs. The workflow works great when you follow all the proper steps. I haven't done it in a while, but I will be getting back into it here in a bit, so it will be neat to see what's changed in the plugin.
