You have to get the filename with the BITMAPSHADER_FILENAME ID, see code below. If you are using relative paths you have to check manually for the project directory and the texture paths of the Cinema4D preferences.

Hello Matthias,

sorry for the delay. I don't checked "E-mail Notify me of Replies" when posted this question.

ok.. i know how to read the container.. but i hoped in a faster way to get the complete filename from the xbitmap.

I made by hands like you suggest :)

thanks
