FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What versions of Cinema 4D does RKT Field Driver and Field Pack 1 work on?
- RKT Field Driver and Field Pack 1 work with Cinema 4D R23 and above.
- If using Cinema 4D 2023, make sure it’s updated to version 2023.2.2 or above.
- If using Cinema 4D 2024, make sure it’s updated to version 2024.4.1 or above.
- RKT Field Driver and Field Pack 1 are compatible with both Mac and PC.
How many computers can I install RKT Field Driver and Field Pack 1 on?
- One license of RKT Field Driver and Field Pack 1 entitles you to install it on one tower and one laptop. Looking for a group license? Contact us.
I’ve correctly installed RKT Field Driver and Field Pack 1, but they’re not showing up in my Extension/Plugin dropdown.
- The most likely cause is that your C4D is not fully up-to-date. Newer versions of C4D often break older plugins. Update your C4D.
- Remember, the RKT Field Driver Tag appears in the right-click tags menu, NOT the Extensions dropdown.
Do RKT Field Driver and Field Pack 1 work with other plugins like X-Particles, Octane, Redshift, Arnold, etc.?
- Yes! As long as another plugin has parameters that can be animated, RKT Field Driver and Field Pack 1 should be able to affect them.
- In regards to various material Node systems, it’s best to drive with: Arnold – Attribute: display_color. Redshift’s Attribute – RSMGColor
What happens if I send a file to someone who doesn’t have RKT Field Driver and Field Pack 1?
- C4D will display a warning that there is a missing plugin, and the RKT Field Driver and Field Pack 1 objects in the Object Manager will show as question marks. If a scene file is saved on a machine that doesn’t have RKT Field Driver or Field Pack 1, but includes the question marks, once it is returned to a machine that has RKT Field Driver and Field Pack 1 installed, it will automatically work again (assuming the RKT Field Driver and Field Pack 1 objects weren’t deleted by the user).
- A RKT Field Driver and Field Pack 1 can be baked in the Advanced Tab.
Can I send a file with RKT Field Driver or Field Pack 1 to a render farm?
- The render farm will require RKT Field Driver and Field Pack 1 to be installed. If a third-party farm does not have RKT Field Driver and Field Pack 1, have the vendor contact Rocket Lasso.
- Bake down RKT Field Driver Tags to ensure correct rendering on a render farm. Bake down Cloners using Field Pack 1 to ensure correct rendering on a render farm.
Why isn’t my viewport Widget Feedback Widget showing up?
- First, check if under the RKT Field Driver “Advanced” tab you have “Viewport Feedback” activated.
- Next, is the Object your tag is on hidden? Are the Stop Lights red dots, or a parent’s Stop Lights red dots? If the object is hidden, the feedback is hidden.
- Is the Object that RKT Field Driver on turned off in the Viewport~Filter settings? For instance. If the Field Driver is driving a Joint, but Joints are hidden in the Viewport, the feedback will be hidden as well.
