The new Effex is a modular, object-oriented framework inside of Cinema 4D that offers a variety of effects to be modelled, animated, simulated and rendered. Each object acts on its own and offers a certain functionality to extent the framework or existing functionality.
Its repertoire covers a wide range of features (but is not limited to these) from volumetric modeling to fluid simulation.
Plants is a procedural modeling and animation plugin to generate organic structures especially suited for trees and plants.
It contains tools, objects and shaders that allow users to create arbitrary types of plants and trees with high flexibility. The algorithms used are based on L-system like behaviors but are not limited to rule-based generation but rather enable the user to apply rules on a procedural basis.
