    when i finish my c4d render and start rendering it, its very very slow. i mean it would take me 2 hours for 1 render. i got a good pc so i dont think hardware is the prog here.

    Its a common problem, just either lower the render size in pixels or lower the quality, but I'd say lower the size.

    Cinema 4d is a 3d graphics application, like 3ds Max, Maya & the low low end Bryce.
    You can find out more at http://www.maxon.net for trial and purchase info.

    If you check out the tutorials section you'll see many ways of using cinema 4d renders. :D

    About the render times... well a really good and detailed render can take upwards of 4 hours!!! Just look around to see what kind of settings you should be using for rendering. If you turn on caustics or global lighting you're looking at 6 hours or higher most likely. Good luck. :D
