Maxon Cinema4D C4D R21

Hey guys,

This is not an official release yet but you can give these a try and let us know how it goes.

Installation steps:

Pre-flight

These changes won’t affect jobs currently rendering as Deadline has already made a local copy of the plugin for itself. If Workers pick up a new job, they will take the new changes.

Make a backup of the following folders:

  • [repo]\plugins\Cinema4D\
  • [repo]\plugins\Cinema4DBatch\
  • [repo]\submission\Cinema4D\

Copy the files in place

Extract the following three zip files to the same folder, and copy the contents from into the correct folders (you may be able to guess from the names in the zip files :slight_smile: ). For example the folder for the submitter extracted to:

C:\Users\me\Downloads\deadline-deadline-10-DeadlineRepository-submission-Cinema4D\deadline-deadline-10-DeadlineRepository-submission-Cinema4D\DeadlineRepository\submission\Cinema4D

Inside this folder I have the same “Client” and “Main” folders as we do in the Repository:

You’ll want to copy this into “[repo]\submission\Cinema4D” and do the same for the other two zip files.

Testing

Re-open Cinema 4D to load the new submitter and submit a new job. Deadline will pick up the plugin changes as soon as the Worker transitions over to a new C4D job.
