The Cinema 4D API provides classes to describe complex 3D scenes and tools to edit polygon meshes.
-
modeling: The Cinema API provides the base classes for modeling in Cinema 4D. The MAXON API provides further, advanced modeling tools.
-
rendering: The Cinema API provides tools to render a given BaseDocument
-
scene_elements: Information about scene settings, take system, objects, tags, materials, shaders and animation.
-
animation: Keyframe animation of parameters is organized in tracks, curves and keys.
-
materials_shading: Handling materials, shaders, and texture paths.
-
scene_elements: Handling objects (Camera Object, Instance Object, etc...) and tags.
-
scene_management: Scene management such as layers, markers, undo, etc...
-
take_system: The Take System makes it possible to handle variations of a scene in one BaseDocument.
-
-
simulation: Contains code examples for the simulation tools of Cinema 4D, such as its particle system.
