In this video, we’ll go over techniques for setting up dynamics for complex objects using super fast and accurate spheres. Additionally adding the challenge of a very small scene scale.

There is a “Fast Forward” version of this tutorial that gets to the meat of the concept assuming you already know C4D pretty well. Let me know what you think of it!

00:21:36 – Importance of Density and Mass
00:30:33 – Building Sphere based proxies
00:36:32 – Why is the Compound Collision Shape jittering?
00:41:24 – Update the rest of the gears
00:51:02 – Customize the gears. It doesn’t affect the dynamics!
