    Oof?
    When your rendering it, it's to do with your save settings.
    Been a while since I've used it but I think it's make sure "Alpha Background" or something along those lines is enabled, and make sure you save as a TGF not jpg etc.

    Broken I think you mean TIF

    And if you turn on Alpha Channel within the Render Settings within the save option.

    Turn it on, and save as Quicktime png, and it will be transparent. Unless its something 7000x7000+, it will save as png, but it wont save, as in no data will be there


    edit

    wait do you use even use c4d, I think i read it wrong, as in I thought you make c4d renders, but do you do photoshop photoshop

    When you open a tif in photoshop press the channels tab at the top of the layers pallete.

    Then ctrl + click on the small thumbnail of the alpha channel.

    Drag the c4d into the sig.
