Equiloud (Uwe Schweer-Lambers) shares a quick tip that will allow you to use deformers with cloned objects in Cinema 4D. If you group your cloner under a null object, and apply the deformer on top of that, you will find that the deformer will distort not only the group, but the shape of the objects as well.
[pullquote]Using Deformers with Cloners could be annoying. But there is a work around with the Matrix Object![/pullquote]This might not be what you are looking for, when you think about deforming a cloner group. If you want the deformer to deform the group itself, without the underlying geometry, you can do this be way of a Matrix Object. If you use the Matrix Object for the cloner, you can apply the deformer to that,and have the results you are looking for.
