I thought C4D Lite disabled object export? Has that changed in the new release?

Once you are in C4d, lite or otherwise, you can save that file and bring in the whole scene as a .C4D

if you just want to bring in the geometry you can save as a obj, c4d, etc and bring it in to element 3d where things move a lot faster

Thanks Teddy,
 
Can't wait to try it out.  So, to the earlier gentleman's comment then, I guess I can open C4DLite, design something, export to OBJ and then bring it back in to AE?  Or perhaps output to OBJ and use Element.

Go to file -> new -> MAXON C4D file, it will open your C4D lite version.

Yes it is not the full package. But you can do a lot with it. Do you really need muscle deformers? A full Broadcast license pays for itself anyways...

Todd,
 
Wow.  I did not know that.  I understood it as a limited version not the full C4D.

If you have After Effects, you have Cinema 4D. We include it.
