Aliasing issue with Cinema 4D renderer

Hi all

I looked around for a solution for a long time, but couldn't find. Feel free to point me in the right direction if this is old hat.

I'm modelling a simple iPad type device in 3d and my mac pro is only configured to use the Cinema 4D renderer (can't use ray traced).

The problem is this, as I rotate the camera around the object looking slightly up at it, I'm getting a lot of aliasing. Is there any way to avoid this?

In After Effects, under the Cineware effect settings, go to render and set to render settings to "current" instead of "viewport". I was looking around a long time for this small piece info, its an easy thing to miss when "current" doesn't sound like the HQ setting one looks for before rendering

I do have this problem too, everything is maxed out in the settings of C4d renderer, but i am facing to the aliasing problem with per character 3D layer... 😞

Well, what are actualyl your render settings in the C4D scene? Typically one would simply crank up the AA settings and use a more advanced filter like Sinc or Gaussian...

Hi Mylenium, thanks for the reply.

Forgive me if I come across a bit naive, the scene is built in after effects with an extruded shape layer using C4D renderer in AE. The quality settings (and so the AA settings too) are cranked up to max. It's rendering at full resolution too. If I switch back to Classic 3D, obviously the extrusion disappears, but so does the aliasing.

You say use a more advanced filter - are you talking about an effect in AE? It sounds like you're talking about the extruded shape as part of a C4D render.

I'm trying not to use C4D as I'm due to pass this on to a total newbie, who wants to be able to mess with the camera angles easily and render out quickly.

Please feel free to slap me down for being stupid here

I also you Mac book pro with cinema 4d Render, make sure the Fast Preview is set to Final Quality & Draft 3d is off. Refer the screenshots.

Draft 3d & Fast preview is set to adaptive -

Draft 3d is off & Fast preview is set to Final Quality -

I have also set the Cinema 4D render options to Maximum/Extreme in the composition settings & View to 100% in the composition panel.
