Download the appropriate Installer of NumPy (for Python 2.6) and choose the Python installation of C4D for installation.
But note that there are some problems when using 3rd party packages, especially C extensions.

- 32 Bit and 64 Bit must be installed seperately  
- Most C packages do not support 64 bit  
- The user using your plugin must install the 3rd party package

I'm sure there are some more, just to point out the most important ones.

Locations that might interest you:

Python binary location:      .../MAXON/Cinema 4D/resource/modules/python/res/PythonXXX.framework  
Python extension locations (win / don't know on mac) : %APPDATA%/MAXON/Cinema 4D/library/python/XXX/

I expected as much on the 64bit side of things.

Thanks for the pointers, I'll give it a go tomorrow I think.

i still cant in install numpy for c4d
it shows

Python version2.6 required, which was not found in the registry

but i cant change the directory of numpy installation

You cannot use the default installer because C4D is not registered as a Python environment in your system. If you have a Python-2.6 installation on your system you can use it as a target and copy the files over to the Python directory of C4D, unless the package contains C-modules (which is for example the case for Numpy).

In that case you can't use the official installer of Numpy either because it was compiled with a different compiler. For Python the compilers must match exactly and therefore the only way to run Numpy properly in C4D is to compile it by yourself with Visual Studio 2010 (including all updates).

I've got a compiled version of Numpy 1.9.1. You can download it from my Website: http://blog.niklasrosenstein.com/2015/04/numpy-in-cinema-4d/

Thanks a lot Nicklas!

Hello
About Cython

Has anybody such issue with Compiling with cython.inline > http://docs.cython.org/src/reference/compilation.html#compiling-with-cython-inline
It can not find vcvarsall.bat in c4d (having of vs2012). I try different modes, even simply return file with arch=x64
For example i can compile from pyx files in cmd or from bat file

To compile with Cython you need the same setup as to compile any C Extension for Python.

Hello Niklas. Thank you. I build pyd slightly differ
Yeah i do it, search over net, i found trick, that adding sys environment VS90COMNTOOLS = %VS110COMNTOOLS% . I was very unmindful
(without any mods in lib dir/pyDir or continuously adding of environment variables in pycode)

so we get inline codinig, closer in houdini :clap:
