i'll see about soft shadows, but with regards to GI. Theoreticaly its allready there. The final production will be done in Cinema4d, so the team will have to do GI by them sleves.
My main concern is lighting/direction/color and textues. These parts will transfer from Blender to Cinema. GI will not
But I'll try to tweak the available GI like ambient oclusion to tweak it some more. Update comming tomorrow.
