Why we like it

Slicer earns its place in the toolfarm library for turning parallel mesh cuts into several output types within one tool, from splines to beveled alternating layers, with Matrix-object placement and animated cut controls.

What is Rocket Lasso Slicer?

Rocket Lasso Slicer, also known as RKT Slicer, cuts complex meshes with parallel slices in Cinema 4D. From those cuts it can generate splines, flat sheets, extruded geometry, or compound alternating layers with bevels, giving you a parametric route into modeling techniques, FUI elements, and advanced text effects made by cutting a mesh and then cutting the result again.

Several parameters shape the output. Smooth turns rough lines into clean organic curves, while Expand inflates or deflates the slices from your mesh. A built-in animated Rate offsets and loops the cuts automatically, and a C4D Matrix object can drive exactly where slices are placed for specific positioning and advanced animation. Splines can be output as a single object or as a series of layers, with segments colorized using random color, greyscale, the full spectrum, a Matrix Object, or the display color of your model. Pairing Slicer with a Cloner and Mograph tools opens up more elaborate series of cuts.

Slicer is the fourth Cinema 4D plugin from the Rocket Lasso team. It runs on Mac and PC and works alongside third-party renderers.

Who is Rocket Lasso Slicer best for?

Rocket Lasso Slicer is best for cinema 4D artists cutting meshes into splines, sheets, extruded geometry, or layered slices for parametric modeling, FUI elements, and advanced text effects.

Frequently asked questions

Does Rocket Lasso Slicer work with Cinema 4D 2025?

Rocket Lasso Slicer is compatible with Cinema 4D R20 through 2025, so it covers a wide span of recent releases up to the 2025 version. It also works alongside your favorite third-party renderers. If you are on a version outside the R20–2025 range, check the developer's page to confirm before installing, since support outside that range is not stated here.

Does Rocket Lasso Slicer run on Mac and PC?

Rocket Lasso Slicer works on both Mac and PC, so you can run it on either platform. It is built for Cinema 4D, is compatible with R20 through 2025, and functions alongside third-party renderers as well. For any platform-specific details or system requirements beyond Mac and PC support, the developer's page is the place to confirm the current information before you install on your particular setup.

How does Rocket Lasso Slicer control where cuts are placed?

Rocket Lasso Slicer lets you drive exactly where the slices are located via a C4D Matrix object, which supports specific placement and advanced animation. A built-in animated Rate can also offset and loop the cuts automatically. Between the Matrix object and the Rate parameter, you can position cuts precisely or animate them over time depending on the effect you are after.

Is Rocket Lasso Slicer free?

Rocket Lasso Slicer is listed as free in this catalog. Licensing terms can change, so check the developer's page for the current details before you download. Slicer is the fourth Cinema 4D plugin from the Rocket Lasso team. It subdivides meshes with parallel cuts to produce splines, flat sheets, extruded geometry, or alternating layers, is compatible with Cinema 4D R20 through 2025, runs on Mac and PC, and works alongside third-party renderers.
