2023.1.0 SDK and API Documentation Releases

Dear Cinema 4D Community,

On November the 9th, 2022, Maxon Computer released Cinema 4D 2023.1.0. Alongside this release, a new Cinema 4D SDK and SDK documentation have been released, reflecting the API changes for 2023.1.0.

The major changes in this documentation update are in C++ the addition of the Color Management and OpenColorIO manuals. In Python, the documentation of native Python magic methods such as __init__, __iter__, or __getitem__ has been updated and the c4dpy interpreter now supports more of the native CPython command line arguments.

To see the latest version of the C++ SDK Online Documentation and Python SDK Online Documentation you must still refresh your browser cache by pressing CTRL + F5 once on the landing page. We have decided for now not to remove the caching.

• 2023.1.0 Python Documentation
• 2023.1.0 Cpp Documentation

Updated have also been the extended SDK code examles on GitHub:

• Extended Python SDK: Only minor changes in scripts/05_modules/node have been carried out reflecting changes in the Nodes API.
• Extended C++ SDK: Two plugins in example.image have been added, documenting Color Mangement and OCIO workflows with the Image API. These examples align with the two new manuals in the C++ documentation.

See the 2023.1 release post on developers.maxon.net for details.

Happy rendering and coding,
the Maxon SDK Team
