Checking upcoming AI render engine for Cinema 4D - Airen 4D

A demo video for Airen 4D, the upcoming AI render engine for Cinema 4D, has been released in February by Cinema 4D plugin developer Merk. It’s introduced to use the Stable Diffusion AI models to turn simple block-out geometry into photorealistic renders, adding “intricate details, lighting effects and realistic textures”.

How does Airen 4D work?

The developer has integrated Stability AI’s Stable Diffusion AI models with Cinema 4D, and you now use it via Airen 4D. The render engine can generate ‘rendered’ images from simple source geometry and text prompts.

It’s similar to the effects of adding geometric detail, materials and lighting. You can work and set materials on a per-object basis, then render the scene in a conventional way.

The render engine runs offline, and users can choose which of the Stable Diffusion AI models to use.

If you are worried about the quality and render time, it’s said that there are no resolution limits to the images generated, and rendering will be “quite fast”. And the ability of it is not just what we have seen on the video, but much more, including generating AI backgrounds and 360-degree skies.

What is Airen 4D for?

Right now Airen 4D is best suitable for still images, particularly for early design exploration. The plugin developer Merk said that it’s not good enough for consistent animation or detailed visualization yet. There will be a long way to reach that.

However, users can choose how much the AI will affect the geometry, including opting for a “a one-to-one pixel-perfect copy” of the original.

Price and system requirements

Right now, Airen 4D is compatible with Cinema 4D. You can pre-order the render engine for $199.99 for Windows only.

Can you use Airen 4D for Cinema 4D on iRender?

You can use this render engine – Airen 4D for Cinema 4D on iRender’s remote computers. iRender provides you a high-performance and configurable server system for 3D rendering, AI Training, VR & AR, simulation, etc. We believe that design and creative activities are private and personal that only you artists will know what you want with your animation.

You can create a machine with pre-installed Cinema 4D, then install this render engine on our remote machine (first time access only), add license, and render by yourself there. Right now there’s no information about Airen 4D can use single GPU or multiple GPU, so we suggest trying on our single RTX 4090 server first.

If you use Cinema 4D with other render engines, such as Redshift, Octane, V-Ray, Arnold, we suggest our multi RTX4090s or RTX3090s.

Let’s see some of Cinema 4D benchmark with Redshift, V-ray and Octane on our package RT4090s:

Not only those powerful configuration, iRender also provides you more services. NVLink for large scene on our server 4N – dual RTX 3090s. Free transferring tool named iRender drive for macOS or Linux users. For Windows users, we recommend using our all-in-one application iRender GPU to work, and you don’t need to come to our website. Our price is flexible with hourly rental which has pay-as-you-go basis, daily/ weekly/ monthly subscription with discount from 10-20%. Plus, you have 24/7 support service with real human who will support you whenever you encounter an issue.

Especially, if you use Cinema 4D and Redshift, now you can access our remote servers without having to install the software and plugin. We have an option to choose pre-installed Cinema 4D and Redshift, and now provide you one license free.

Register an account today to experience our service and enjoy a very big promotion 100% bonus for new user first top up. Or contact us via WhatsApp: (+84) 916806116 for advice and support.

 

Thank you & Happy Rendering!
