[Release] Vertex Normal Tool 1.0.5 for Cinema 4D
The plugin packs a robust set of utilities into a lightweight, scannable menu interface. 1. Target and Align Normals
Select edges and instantly define them as hard or soft, similar to "Creasing" but with direct control over the shading data. Vertex Normal Tool 1.0.5 for Cinema 4D
By default, Cinema 4D uses a to automatically average these vectors based on angle thresholds. However, when dealing with CAD data imports, bevels, or game assets, automatic averaging fails. VNT 1.0.5 allows you to manually manipulate, lock, and align these vectors to fix shading errors without adding unnecessary geometry. Key Features of Vertex Normal Tool 1.0.5
By default, C4D calculates shading based on the average of the polygons meeting at a point. This is fine for smooth, organic shapes, but it creates two major headaches: [Release] Vertex Normal Tool 1
Keep polycounts incredibly low while mimicking high-poly smooth shading.

If you are a Cinema 4D user who values clean shading, crisp edges, or optimizing low-poly assets, It solves one of C4D’s long-standing weaknesses—the lack of intuitive, manual control over vertex normals—without costing a cent. It is intuitive, stable, and fills a gap that Maxon has yet to address adequately.
This is the standout feature for hard-surface artists. VNT 1.0.5 allows you to automatically calculate face-weighted normals. This technique forces the large, flat areas of your polygon mesh to stay perfectly flat while shifting the shading bevels entirely to the edges. 4. Normal Flattening and Alignment
The workflow is refreshingly simple:
