i cannot reproduce this, neither on console nor on plugin level. sending a nonexisting plugin id
doesn't seem to be a good idea., but it doesn't crash c4d for me.
cosnole output (1000001 is a dummy plugin for testing)
[OK] c4d.GePluginMessage(1000001, None)
False

Hey thx for the reply. 1000001 seems to work but just passing 1 crashes on my maschine. I think that's enough of information to continue working 
Thanks again!

just to be clear, 1000001 is the ID of an plugin I have ** ** installed for testing purposes, so
if you do not have a plugin with that ID (which is one of the free tesing IDs) it basicly doesn't
matter if you pass 1000001, 42 or 0. If the passed ID doesn't exist things might get messy
when C4D tries to call the nonexisting or existing (but not of unknown type) plugin asigned
to that ID.

This is not the id of the plugin but of the message itself. The docs say that the message is sent to all plugin modules. So every plugin which implements PluginMessage() can react on the message with the given id.

Hi, I can confirm that passing an object for the second parameter might crash on some systems.
If it does on your system please remove the optional argument for GePluginMessage(yourID). Will be fixed.
It depends on what you are trying to achieve but c4d.SendCoreMessage or c4d.SpecialEventAdd might be an alternative.
