SkyBlox is a straightforward, semi-modular plugin for Cinema 4D to quickly assemble realistic buildings for exterior architectural visualizations, scene extension, or background renderings in just a few clicks.

Skyblox’s great strength is its expandability with new various types of buildings via Expansion Packs available at the Expansion Marketplace.

The Starter-Pack includes 5 realistic buildings.
SkyBlox uses the so-called Triplex 3-Layer System. Every building consists of 9 modules: 3 basements, 3 mid-levels, and 3 tops. You can choose between these 3 variations for each section, stack the mid-levels infinitely high, and customize the roof and basement styles. This allows you to quickly achieve different varations of a building.

Asset Manager: SkyBlox keeps your core installation lightweight by hosting textures and distance files externally on a dedicated webspace, bypassing Digistore file-size limits and eliminating the hassle of downloading bulky updates. Instead, the built-in Asset Manager handles everything seamlessly, allowing you to download and update your essential textures and distance files with a single click while ensuring your library stays automatically optimized and up to date.

Night-View Mode: Experience your SkyBlox builds like never before with the immersive Night-View Mode, a powerful feature designed to bring your layered structures to life after dark by dynamically activating individual lights level by level with randomized placement for a stunningly realistic night aesthetic. Please note that this high-performance visual feature can be quite demanding on your hardware, as a single building level can easily contain twenty or more individual light sources.

Memory Saving (Master-Slave System): To help keep scenes manageable, copying a building creates a “Slave” instance. This saves material and memory overhead while still allowing you to alter the appearance of individual copies.

SkyBlox is built specifically for Cinema 4D, comes with all ready-to-use materials/assets, and more expansion packs are planned for the future.

LICENSING & HARDWARE

Skyblox uses a node-locked system (hardware-bound license). Your serial key allows you to register the plugin on up to two computers simultaneously (e.g., a workstation and a laptop). This applies to both private users and commercial entities. To maintain flexibility, you can release your licenses twice a year (every 30 days) to activate them on new hardware. After the initial assignment of the two nodes, you have a one-time opportunity to release and reassign them. Thereafter, this is possible only every 30 days. In special emergencies, please contact info@3deoskill.com. 3deoskill reserves the right to deny activation requests that appear suspicious or unusually frequent.
