There is little to no access to the animation paths in CINEMA 4D so no not really we wouldn’t be able to do anything that the Anim Curve 3D plugin offers. It is a trade off though the Anim Curve 3D plugin is somewhat unstable (not to the point of unusable and one just need to keep an eye on their graph editor, the spots where the interpolation corrupts are easy to spot as there is literally no line joining one key to another) Cinema’s is still highly usable and honestly i do use it more as a visual guide than manipulating directly. n that case one can always use a tool like tracer as well to get a path that can be seen even when the controller is not selected. It may seem annoying to have to play the animation through once to get the tracer to show the animation properly, but honestly in Anim Curve 3D, if the object doesn’t have keys directly applied in local space then it won’t make a curve without some workarounds, and then its functionality quickly disappears as the curves do not refresh or update automatically and cannot be manipulated of course.

I love c4d animation curves…shouldn’t be to hard to get script or plugin to add extra functionality should it?
