Cycles 4D, a dedicated bridge plugin that allows Cinema 4D users to access the Cycles rendering engine directly inside Cinema 4D, has reached its end of life (EOL). While there will be no further updates to Cycles 4D, it is now included for free within INSYDIUM Fused 2024 and will be released to the community at no cost soon. As Cinema 4D transitions to Redshift as its primary rendering engine, we are enhancing our training for Redshift and expanding support and training for other engines, such as Octane.
