So, you use the cinema4dsdk.vcxproj file with the original name?

Howdy,
Yep, I simply copy all of the relevant project files into a new project folder with my plugin's source files, and then open the sdk project and replace the source files with mine, then add the search paths specific to my plugin and change the name of the output file.
Adios,

What is that of the search paths, Dan?
I just have a res folder and a source folder. Do I need to change anything more? -

Howdy,
Well, not everything in Cinema 4D is in the "resources/res" folder. For example, if you need to access Xpresso nodes' data, you'll need to add the path "resources/modules/gv/expressiontag/res/description" to your project's search paths.
Or if you have some common functions that several of your plugins share, you'd add the path to those files. For example I have a folder named "CD_Global" in my plugins folder that has all of the common c++ and header files that several of my plugins use.
Adios,

Oh, good to know that
Luckily, my project is very, very simple.
I will fire up Parallels and try that as soon as I get home.
Thank you, Dan.Rui Batista

Damn!!! I tried to do what you said and I still get the same error
I just copied the cinema4dsdk.vcxproj and projectsettings.props files to my folder. In my folder I already have my res and source folders.
Then, I changed the Output file name to $(ProjectDir)MyPlugin.cdl64
And then, when I choose Build Solution, I get the same error:The project file '' has been renamed or is not longer in the solution.

Howdy,
I'd get rid of the "$(ProjectDir)" and have it just say "MyPlugin.cdl64".
The files that I copy into the new folder are:
cinema4dsdk.sln
cinema4dsdk.vcxproj
cinema4dsdk.vcxproj.filters
projectsettings.propsAdios,

Hi,
glad you got your problem fixed.
I just want to add that there are guides on setting up projects for Visual Studio (and Xcode as well) in the new SDK documentation, e.g. Visual Studio: Setup Project by Cloning cinema4dsdk
