A core Cinema 4D 'Prime' application, a 'Broadcast' version with additional motion-graphics features, 'Visualize,' which adds functions for architectural design and 'Studio,' which includes all modules.įrom Release 8 until Release 11.5, Cinema 4D had a modular approach to the application, with the ability to expand upon the core application with various modules. On Linux, Cinema 4D is available as a commandline rendering version.įrom R12 to R20, Cinema 4D was available in four variants. With v4, however, Maxon began to develop the application for Windows and Macintosh computers as well, citing the wish to reach a wider audience and the growing instability of the Amiga market following Commodore's bankruptcy. Initially, Cinema 4D was developed for Amiga computers in the early 1990s, and the first three versions of the program were available exclusively for that platform. The "Lite" variant is dependent on After Effects CC, needing the latter application running to launch, and is only sold as a package component included with AE CS through Adobe. This is part of a partnership between the two companies, where a Maxon-produced plug-in, called Cineware, allows any variant to create a seamless workflow with After Effects. "Lite" acts as an introductory version, with many features withheld.

The difference is now only in licensing.Ģ014 saw the release of Cinema 4D Lite, which came packaged with Adobe After Effects Creative Cloud 2014. There is no technical difference between commercial, educational, or demo versions. It replaces all previous variants, including BodyPaint 3D, and includes all features of the past 'Studio' variant.
