EJ Hassenfrantz takes a look at some of the newest features of the Text Edge Effects Bevel Kit for Cinema 4D. Text Edge Effects is being updated to version 1.4 and not only provides a fast and easy way to add custom bevels to type, but it also provides a more flexible way to create edge effects on 3D type, logos, or any spline shape in Cinema 4D.
