@m_magalhaes
Thank you for a quick reply!
I'm sorry, I made an idiotic mistake. I simply didn't add
the following piece of code:
case C4DPL_INIT_SYS:
{
// load resources defined in the the optional "res" folder
if (!g_resource.Init())
return false;
return true;
}
in the main.cpp
Thanks, again.
I hope my next questions will have more sense.
It should be an architecture plugin in the end :)

Dear fellows, I'm trying to write my first plugin in c++.
I followed instructions, and with the help of the projecttool created the plugin folders.
I managed to create a plugin that draws a cube in viewpoirt.
Even more, my plugin has its own logo.tif in the r21 <extensions menu> in cinema4d r21, but it has a blank space instead of a name.
As far as I understand the name comes from the file myplugin/res/strings_en-US/c4d_strings.str
I created this folder and c4d_strings.str file with
STRINGTABLE
{
IDS_MYPLUGIN "Make Cube";
}
Here is my registration line in the myplugin.cpp
RegisterCommandPlugin(1054040, GeLoadString(IDS_MYPLUGIN), 0, AutoBitmap("icon.tif"_s), "MyPlugin"_s, NewObjClear(MyPlugin));
However, the name of the plugin is still missing in the extentions menu in c4d.
What do I do wrong?
Yaroslav.
P.S.
I'm newbe in c++ and had only python experience before.
