How to convert c4d to 3ds file

Your best shot for conversion of CINEMA 4D graphics (.c4d) to 3ds Max formats (.max, .3ds), i.e. c4d to 3ds conversion, would be to use some 3rd party conversion programs with support for this conversion. This is because 3ds Max does not support import of Cinema 4D format without proper plugin (for example Okino). It should be noted that CINAME 4D itself should (at least in some version) possess an export function to 3ds Max formats.

Understanding C4D and 3DS file formats

The C4D file format is associated with Cinema 4D, a popular 3D modeling, animation, and rendering software developed by Maxon. It is widely used by professionals in the fields of motion graphics, architecture, and design for creating complex 3D models and animations.

On the other hand, the 3DS file format is a legacy format used by Autodesk's 3D Studio, which is now known as 3ds Max. Although it is an older format, it is still commonly used for transferring 3D models between different software applications due to its wide compatibility.

How to convert C4D to 3DS

Converting a C4D file to a 3DS file involves exporting the 3D model from Cinema 4D and saving it in the 3DS format. This process allows you to use your Cinema 4D models in other applications that support the 3DS format.

Best software for C4D to 3DS conversion

The best software for converting C4D files to 3DS is Cinema 4D itself, as it provides a straightforward way to export your models. Follow these steps:

  • Open your C4D file in Cinema 4D.
  • Go to File → Export and select 3DS from the list of available formats.
  • Choose your export settings and click OK to save the file.

Another option is to use a dedicated file conversion tool like Autodesk FBX Converter or Blender, which can import C4D files and export them as 3DS files.
