关于 Cinema 4D R10 软件及文档本地化建议计划

, , , ...

直接目标:
创建标准的能够同时用于Mac、PC平台,甚至Linux的Cinema4D简体、繁体中文用户界面、帮助文档。

现有资源:
1.VISUALBOMB论坛成员;
2.Tonkv的快速指南手册(不确定格式);
3.R9.6中文化文件(不确定格式)、R9.5中文化工程文件;
4.可协作本地化工具。

作用对象:
1.可抽取的Cinema4D语言资源文件;
2.可抽取的 Html Cinema4D帮助文档;

项目难点:
1.专有词汇如mograph难以使用合适的中文来表示,当然也包括其他的一些有争议的术语,尚未有公认的定义;
2.目标任务量十分巨大,涉及需要处理的英文词汇量多达781223 [帮助文档] + 37108 [程序界面] 条;
3.因任务量巨大必须采用团队形式完成,随之的问题有:
  • 团队的组建——用什么样的方式组建,成员的招募等等;
  • 协作的形式——怎样的协助形式最高效和易用;
  • 任务的分配——怎样把任务分配到最合适的成员手中;
  • 成果的检验——如何确定任务成果是正确、有效的;
  • 团队的驱动——因为全部是基于网络的交流和沟通;
  • 团队的监督——怎样的监督能保障团队方向和进度;

GOOD HAIR DAY AT MAXON

GOOD HAIR DAY AT MAXON

3D software developer MAXON is pleased to announce the first completely integrated professional CINEMA 4D module for the creation of hair, fur and feathers.

MAXON, December 6, 2005 - Known simply as "HAIR", this new module lets users quickly and easily add astonishingly realistic hair to objects. The hair can be styled using HAIR's extensive tool palette, and a custom 3D shader gives artists complete control over the appearance of the hair. HAIR is not only easy to use, it's very fast, offers excellent rendering quality, and requires very little memory. An average configuration can easily render millions of hairs.

HAIR adds to MAXON's already impressive array of features for character designers. Characters will come alive through the combination of HAIR and the MOCCA module, which includes the cloth simulation tool, Clothilde. Naturally, all features work seamlessly together within CINEMA 4D. The editor view is updated in real time and the preview quality can be adjusted as desired.

Much attention was given to achieving a high level of interactivity. An extensive and intuitive toolset was created with over a dozen tools, such as brush, comb, curl and cut. The look of the hair is defined by a special HAIR shader. In addition to such properties as shine, frizz and thickness, a texture can also be loaded to define a color pattern for the hair.

Dynamic forces, including collision detection, can be used while styling and animating the hair. Forces such as gravity, wind, turbulence or twist can be used to create breathtaking animations. HAIR also offers an impressive cache functionality, which makes viewing the effects of dynamics or preparing a file for network rendering a breeze. Artists can even edit individual frames after they've been cached.

MAXON HAIR requires CINEMA 4D R9.5. Special introductory prices are available until Dec. 31, 2005. Read more...

Free CINEMA 4D R9.52 Update - Also Available for 64-bit

, , , ...


[ MAXON, November 23, 2005 ] - Software developer MAXON is pleased to announce a free upgrade for CINEMA 4D Release 9.5. In addition to a number of bug fixes, this update boasts over a dozen optimized features and additional improvements. Since MAXON was the first developer worldwide to release a 64-bit version of its software, CINEMA 4D R9.52 is also available in 64-bit!

The R9.52 update includes such improvements as changes to the Content Browser that make it even easier to use, expanded drag & drop functionality and an improved menu structure, making this easy to learn application even more efficient. In addition, a new shader has been added to CINEMA 4D - the ChamLum shader. This shader illuminates the surface of objects with a soft, slightly fuzzy look - great for rendering realistic skin. Furthermore, a Content Browser library containing shaders, light setups and a bunch of useful goodies is also available for free download.

New "ChanLum" shader
The ChanLum shader creates a blurry illumination on the surface, offsetting the lighting and (self)shadowing an object receives. The Chanlum shader is ideal for use in creating realistic-looking human (or other) skin.

Expanded drag & drop
You can now do more with fewer clicks of the mouse. For example, an image file can be dragged from the Explorer/Finder or the Content Browser directly onto an object. A material containing this texture will automatically be placed into the Color channel and applied to the object. Also, a C.O.F.F.E.E. script can be executed by simply dragging & dropping it into the editor view.

Expanded menus
Major CINEMA 4D modules such as Dynamics and MOCCA can now be directly accessed via the main CINEMA 4D menu. In addition, submenus have been improved.

New “Cylindrical Lens” post effect
This new post effect is especially interesting for digital matte painters. This option offers distortion-free vertical rendering, and a 360-degree horizontal view.

Content Browser workflow improvements
The Search function now selects the active directory as its path, user-defined presets are organized into subgroups, and the management and use of user-defined libraries has been made easier.

NET Render workflow improvements
Using administrator privileges, NET Render (server and client) can be restarted remotely in the Browser interface, e.g. to activate subsequently installed plugins.

Additional features and improvements

  • Content Browser: Integrated into the standard layout, with a simplified overview.
  • Advanced Render/SKY: Expanded settings for moon rendering.
  • NET Render: Improved support for network Multi-Pass rendering.
  • Text Splines: The shape can now be saved in the scene, without having to install the font.
