Indeed, Athanasios has done some impressive work in bridging the gap between the si-community and Maxon, especially considering he is not being paid by Maxon... Greetz Leendert -- Leendert A. Hartog AKA Hirazi Blue Administrator NOT the owner of si-community.com

I've watched Thanassis' tutorials, and I have to say they are excellent. They helped me quite a lot. The Cineversity stuff really helped, too, and it is free for 75% of it. And I don't just like Thanassis' s tutorials because I am Greek (and so is he, if you hadn't noticed his name)... The Vimeo

Please feel free to contact me if you need anything else. This applies to everybody. If you need to ask workflow questions, I could either point you to the right direction or make a tutorial for you. On my vimeo page I did some small tutorials, and I wouldn't mind doing a few more if needed. ht

Hi Steven, I don't work for Maxon, I'm just a beta tester/fanboy :-) With graphics drivers on Windows, sometimes the issues persist over a few versions. It's not always clear cut, as it may be related to other parts of your OS. The unfortunate fact is that Maxon themselves can't do anything abou

Dear Steven, C4D is by FAR the most stable program in the industry. No joke. It ONLY crashes because of 3rd party related issues (plugins, drivers and OS) and graphics drivers is the most common reason. I'm not overselling C4D's stability here. If it "crashed all the time" it's probably somethin
