Install cinema4d

When you restart Cinema after installation, you will need to enter your licence. A dialog box appears like this:. Enter the name and email address used to purchase X-Particles into the relevant fields, and enter the licence supplied by us into the 'Licence' field. When you click the 'OK' button X-Particles will validate your licence by communicating with our dedicated server. After that it will not need to validate the licence every time you run Cinema, but it will need to do so once within every 21 day period after installation.

If it cannot do so, the licence will stop working and you will need to contact us by email through our support email address. Please note that therefore your machine MUST have access to the internet before you can use it for the first time.

If the licence cannot be validated the plugin will not work. To use the tool you will need the first 11 digits of your Cinema 4D multi-licence these start with the digit '2' and your X-Particles licence.

This will generate a licence in the format required by the MLS. Instead it has its own entry in the main menu bar. If you have difficulty entering your licence, please see the support pages on our website in the first instance. Go to the support page on our website then enter the requested details and the nature of the problem. If you still having problems, you can contact us by email.

I don't even know where it installed itself as I had absolutely no say in it, it just appeared when I turned on my PC. I can't find it in the control panel. I also don't have AE installed currently. The best 3D tool for motion grahpics not only has direct integration with After Effects via the Cinewave plug-in , but a lite veresion of an application that costs several thousand dollars on its own is included.

It's installed in a way that's in keeping with the other 3rd party products that are integrated like MochaAE, Keylight and the Cycore Effects. I'm not sure what there is to be upset about here. This is entirely to the benefit of the end users. Cinema4D is integrated into After Effects.

Without the lite version of Cinema4D, we would have parital integration. It's not a separate offering. Don't get me wrong, I'm not mad that Cinema 4D is installed, I would want that installed anyway, and I understand the dependency on it being installed, but as a user, I should not have to go on the internet and google keywords to find out how come I suddenly have Cinema4D installed on my machine, don't you agree?

Why not? Do I not deserve to know what goes on my computer or is Adobe just going to do whatever it wants with my computer? Give me a dialog that it's a dependency on many features. I'll OK it. And NO software company owns my PC and tells me what to install and what not! This applies to forced Cinema4D install and the Adobe Suite itself I have to disable the auto-start services on every update of the suite again, because Adobe and Co think their software is the most important thing for every user and has to run all the time the PC is on.

Spoiler: It isn't. That's why people invented Addons for example, so people can dis- or enable features on demand. Speeding up start-up and lowering memory footprint. This whole thread reminds me of one in the Adobe forum about 15 years ago when someone asked why Adobe products do support multi-screens so badly and do not have customizable keyboard shortcuts. And the first answers where "No one needs more than 1 screen and customized shortcuts! If you do you have a problem with your working pipeline".

Heaton, please read the posts you are replying to, carefully. Thank goodness for extended desktop! It's one of the many things that drew me to the Mac platform back in the s when it was non-existant on Windows. During the past years, this terrible behavior in thei installers got a little better, but not yet pretty standard.

It is because of people like you that companies like these abuse their terms. I barely want the Adobe CC crap consuming my system, now I have to uninstall unwanted software as well? Even dodgy software installers give you options to decline extra offers, but no, not Adobe. They do what they want.

Between my newly installed Windows 10 and Adobe CC, I'm rapidly losing my patience with software companies. I hear you saying that you are unhappy with Adobe and Maxon and Microsoft. You do not need to purchase their products. You have a choice. I'd expect better responses on a professional forum, Warren. I've been in the motion graphics industry for many years, however can also attest to not being a C4D user or any 3d user for that matter. However it is a rather legitimate concern to raise when software is unintentionally installed.

That aside, your 'you do not need to purchase their products' comment is quite unbecoming of someone with a 'community professional' tag. I would say this isn't professional behaivour in the slightest. Aaron, thanks for your comment. Some people like a world without criticism.

On my art school I had lots of them. Everything that Apple and Adobe does is always right. You are not allowed to complain! Criticism is a very! And the topic here is NOT a bug or something no one is perfect, and software will always have its flaws , it is once again a bundle of actions against the user. Just because the company knows they can do what they want without any competition out there , especially when it comes to privacy issues. Still remember the times when you downloaded some free software for your machine and it was bundled with some anti virus software, realplayer, search bar, chrome browser and other stuff you never wanted to download and install?

Did you, Mr. Heaton, like this behavior? Because more is always better? If there's anything on your computer that you don't like, you should remove it - especially if you do not trust the source. If you do trust the source, there is no harm in leaving it.

This document describes how to call the CLI as well as all the various parameters that are possible by doing so.
