: The material system in Redshift 3.5.24 has been enhanced, offering more realistic material responses to lighting conditions, and a wider range of material types, including better support for metallic and translucent surfaces.
Maxon’s December 2023 and February 2024 releases have ushered in a new era for digital artists, with CINEMA 4D Studio 2024.2 and its companion GPU renderer, Redshift 3.5.24, forming a powerhouse combination for motion design, VFX, and product visualization. While the 2024.2 update focuses on massively upgrading C4D’s core simulation and exchange workflows, Redshift 3.5.24 targets raw rendering performance—especially for Mac users—with optimized hardware ray tracing.
