What CINEMA 4D Lite can't do
As we've seen, Cinema 4D Lite is incredibly full featured for a free application, but there are a few things it can't do, and this movie is to highlight those. I've opened Cineware_Comparison_Chart.PDF from the project files folder, Chapter One. And here we have a document that was made by Maxon and highlights the differences between the different versions of Cinema 4D, those being, Prime, Visualize, Broadcast, Studio, and Lite. Lite is most similar to Prime but there are some things that are missing in Cinema 4D Lite that aren't in Prime. The Python C++ API, for one thing. But most things are supported, it's cross platform 64 bit architecture, open GL support and Coffee is also supported. Now, if we go down to Interface and Workflow, much of it is the same between the applications. Couple of things to note, XRef external instancing and referencing system isn't supported in Cinema 4D Lite. And sadly, 3DConnexion 3DMouse support isn't in Cinema 4D Lite. And I really miss my 3D mouse…
