Valuable community members,
from May 9th since May 16th, the SDK Support Team will deliver reduced support service levels due to the concurrent overlap with the MAXON company meeting. We’ll get back with standard support levels on Monday the 16th of May.
Apologising for any inconvenience this might cause, give best regards.

We are pleased to inform that a new release of Cinema 4D has been published.
Cinema 4D Subscription Release 24 (S24) includes functionality to easily browse and obtain models, materials and other assets, and to intuitively place them within the scene. The release also includes key workflow enhancements and a sneak peek at the continued progress on the Scene Nodes and Scene Manager interfaces to the new core.
The new release of Cinema 4D is available for immediate download on the Maxon official website, together with the full list of features.
We also invite you to have a look at our Developers Blog, where we present the enhancements for plugin developers that have been introduced in the C++ and Python APIs respectively.

Hi @mastergog the manual just illustrates the standard case and, as much as for any other snippet, it might be adapted to your scope to deliver the desired function.
Give the limited information, I can only assume that the VertexColorHandle passed as first parameter to VertexColorTag::Get() might be invalid. Have you checked if vcTag->GetDataAddressW(); returns a valid pointer? Can you share a code to reproduce the issue? What's the instance scope in the code of the PolygonObject you've inserted to Tag into?
VertexColorHandle
VertexColorTag::Get()
vcTag->GetDataAddressW();
PolygonObject
Cheers, r

@trideshnik said in How to decompile cdl64 file?:
Hmm.. so.. Comrades, before getting the necessary information, I was told 100500+ times about copyright. Everyone saw fit to indicate this. Dear, do you think that the person asking this question needs a triple copyright notice? If you do not want to answer or help, no one is forcing you, but making idiots out of people is bad form. I got a ton of off-topic information. reasoning, warnings. and only a fraction of the information I need. so nice. but. Thanks to those who indicated the direction in which to dig. P.S. it seems to me that this is such a lifestyle. okay) khkhgxghzhuxvvldqkdfnhuv

Fellow developers,
in Cinema 4D R23.008 and only on macOS, it has been discovered an unexpected behaviour that causes the installation of a module via pip to crash.

We apologise for any inconvenience it might cause and we'll keep you post on its resolution.

Dear Development Community,
due to some recent "module ID" conflicts we've seen reported in the last months, we remind you that the module ID used in the projectdefinition.txt MUST be unique to the dynamic library. The module ID is used by Cinema 4D to distinguish modules and, "similarly" to plugin ID, it's supposed to be unique. The practice of using any of the projects shipped with the sdk.zip as a template is fine as long as you keep attention on changing the module ID provided by default. Finally it's worthy reminding that the module ID should follow a reverse domain notation order as suggested from the value available here where based on your username and, eventually, the website used in your profile, we suggest a potential root representation.

Dear Community,
with the incoming Winter Holiday season, being most of the Team in vacation from December 23rd to January the 2nd, you might experience slowdowns in the usual support workflow. Please be patient until the full team is back in January 2020.
Best wishes, The Maxon SDK Team

Hi rui_mac, thanks for reaching out us.
With regard to the issue reported, I'm a bit surprised to see c4d.documents.KillDocument() executed considering the way garbage collection is handled in Python (i.e. you don't have to take care of freeing memory - if not on very explicit cases - since Python does it automatically)
Nevertheless, if you could provide us with a simple code to reproduce the issue we could get a better understanding of the cause.

Hi final3d, thanks for writing us.
Please file your suggestions and recommendations on Maxon Support page paying attention to select "Suggestions and Ideas for Maxon".
This forum is only aimed to discuss development-related topics.
Best, Riccardo
Being the SDK formerly known as Melange renamed in Cineware SDK, the category hosting the related discussion has been renamed accordingly.

Hello,
by default, the MSVC build settings of the Cinema 4D R21 SDK activate Advanced Vector Extensions. This can cause issues on client systems that do not support AVX (the plugin will not show up for them).
The AVX settings are defined in the frameworks\settings\Base.props file.
To disable AVX support, simply remove the line
<EnableEnhancedInstructionSet>AdvancedVectorExtensions</EnableEnhancedInstructionSet>
The new major version R21 of Cinema 4D has been officially released and is now available for download. Everyone can now create accounts on the new MyMaxon portal (my.MAXON.net) and download the latest version of Cinema 4D.
An overview of all new development resources can be found on developers.maxon.net.
Cinema 4D Release 21 has been announced. The new release introduces several relevant changes for plugin developers.
More information on Cinema 4D R21 is found here:
The adapted C++ and Python SDKs will be published with the release of Cinema 4D R21 in September.
