z-ASCII, Cinema 4D plugin
DESCRIPTION
zASCII is a post-effect plugin for Cinema 4D that allows you to transform your current render into ASCII art. With zAscii, you can customize the appearance of your ASCII art by choosing the font, size, color, and even the list of characters to use.
This plugin is a post-effect, meaning it is applied to your render after it has been generated by Cinema 4D. This allows you to add ASCII ART effects to your render without having to modify your scene.
