Well, my answer answers that, check out the posting I linked to. You must insert a MENURESOURCE_SUBTITLE: menu.InsData(c4d.MENURESOURCE_SUBTITLE, "My Heading")

Thanks for the answer

Yes @Mats , it will 'scan' the material and convert to a description, then convert back to material. I want to achieve material conversion between different renderers, which may seem like a very labor-intensive task, but the good news is that I have taken the first step in implementing it. And thanks for your like for boghma. Cheers~ DunHou

I just simply add a plugin to C4D which creates a user menu into C4D all in one pack without adding any script into the user C4D preferences folder ( library / scripts ) . Menu and script embedded solution all in one plugin inside.

Hence I've moved your thread to the "General Talk" forum. Many thanks to @Dunhou for taking an active role of our community! Much appreciated! Cheers, Ilia

Hey @Livat1984, There are currently four commercial third party solutions for your task (that I am aware of): Forrester is a full blown plugin suite for vegetation generation. Taio is also a vegetation solution which integrates nicely into the Insydium toolkit. Laubwerk is more an asset library with an optional surface distribution plugin. Poliigon also offers bindings for its asset library to Cinema 4D, including a vegetation library. With Cinema's own Mograph (Cloner, Fields, and MoSpline) system, Scene Nodes, and our asset library you can also get pretty far. [image: 1728469619465-91d029d5-d9b0-49c9-9528-0cd69b35c60e-image-resized.png] Fig. I: Cinema's own asset library comes with substantial content in the Plants section (all the content does not even fit on my screen, there is more). Finally, a while ago a user posted here a free plant generator, but I am not sure if it is being maintained. Cheers, Ferdinand

You can compile your plugins that have been signed with the Xcode debug license in debug or release mode and run them as much as you want. You can even do this on a different machine, when you are okay with a warning here and there. When you want to get up to speed with the C++ SDK again, I would recommend having a look at Getting Started: First Steps, it guides you through all the steps necessary to compile the SDK on Windows and MacOS, and do simple things like adding your first plugin and debugging code.

Hi @filsdegraphiste, The links under the youtube video from Donnovan have been broken after updating Cineversity. I've contacted the Web team, they are working on it. As of today it looks like the links have been fixed (e.g. here is the link to the CV-Parametric selection tag tutorial on the Cineversity portal). However, it also looks like the project files are still broken. It might take the Web team some time to recover them completely. The CV Toolbox in turn is available on downloads page under "Cineversity Legacy Downloads" section. Cheers, Ilia

@Dunhou 非常感谢你的帮助，兄弟

Hi @litao , Sure, for the end-user questions you can always reach out our Support Center. Cheers, Ilia
