How to Seamlessly Loop a Pyro Simulation in Cinema 4D
Gilles Dillenseger walks you though how to create a seamlessly loop a pyro simulation in Cinema 4D. He even explains how to create loop if you’re using a simulation remeshed with volume mesher.
If you’re unfamiliar, the Pyro tag was introduced in Cinema 4D 2023.1, and it is used to simulate realistic flames, smoke plumes, and explosions. Add the pyro tag to any Cinema 4D object and you can emit flames or smoke. The Pyro Tag allows you to control parameters, such as the temperature of the fire and the smoke density. Pyro can use either the GPU or CPU.
Below the video, there are some other resources for learning Pyro.
