C4D image -> Photoshop?

[II_ROBZOR_II]

Ok so i just got to grips with C4D today and have started making texts, but i want to edit and add to my finished text in photoshop.

How do i get my C4D image to open in photoshop, and how do i make sure it has no background when i open it in photoshop?

Any help would be great!

Alright click on the button in the top left

Go down to the Save row and check Alpha.

From there, you'll want to render it in C4D

Click save as

Save it, and you should be good to go!


If you run into any problems feel free to let me know

Thanks for the reply - PM'd you.

Alright then you obviously have floors and walls.

Easiest solution?

Click this (by right clicking on whatever is in the way[Compositing]):

And uncheck the "Seen by Camera" box:

Should be good to go

 

[II_ROBZOR_II]

Can't find the 'seen by camera' part - am i right clicking on my top layer?

Sorry getting a little confused here lol.

 

[Jiwi]

Haha not a problem.

Right click on whatever is in your way, whether it be the wall, the floor, or whatever you want unseen in the render, and add the compositing tag to THAT.

;D

Right okay, i understand it now - so im guessing i'll need to hide the wall and floors like you said.

I only see the layers i have made up there which is:-

light
extrude nurbs 1
extrude nurbs
plane

Where can i see the walls and floor? lol

 

[Jiwi]

Haha take a picture of your whole screen, upload it, and show me it.

 

[II_ROBZOR_II]

Here we go - sorry if im a retard lol

 

[Jiwi]

Yea do it for the plane and let me know if it works!

 

[II_ROBZOR_II]

Success i now have a black background instead! - can i get this transparent?

 

[Jiwi]

When you save it from C4D it'll be transparent in PS!

 

[II_ROBZOR_II]

It comes up black in PS - I don't think im very good at this lol.

 

[Jiwi]

Haha no problem man. You sure you have the Alpha channel checked in the render settings?

 

[II_ROBZOR_II]

Yeah - double checked that - think i might need to find someone with Teamviewer to help me out lol.

 

[Jiwi]

I have it!

Just pm me your details and I'll help you out

 

[II_ROBZOR_II]
