Go into the folder and delete all the *.xdl64 (on windows) and *.xlib (on macOS) files except for the one you need for your version of Cinema 4D. Manual Installation for Individual plugins Note: Make sure you already have the Plugin Manager installed. If the installer can't find Cinema 4D at these locations then you will not be given the option to install the plugins for those versions. By default this is set to 'C:\Program Files\' When using the installers they expect to find Cinema 4D at its default install location.įor windows users you have the option to select a different root folder to tell the installer where it should look for the Cinema 4D folders.
If you choose not to use the installer then you will need to manually download and install the Plugin Manager as well as your plugin. The installers also come with the PluginManager, which is required to run the plugins. It will install the plugins directly into the plugins folder for your copy of Cinema 4D. If your plugin comes with an installer then please use that.
