Python Generator use a script

[kverhaar]

I have some python generators which all use a script in the {C4D_SCRIPTS_DIR} folder. But somehow with updating this morning, this doesn't work any more. The File that is used is PyHuisStand and I use the following rule to import this:

import PyHuisStand as HS

What do I do wrong?

Hi @kverhaar I think you confuse the two environment variable C4D_SCRIPTS_DIR and C4DPYTHONPATH3XX.

C4D_SCRIPTS_DIR is used by the script manager to know which script can be loaded in the script manager (in its dropdown)
C4DPYTHONPATH3XX is used to extend the sys.path of python, so you can import others scripts in your script via with the usual python command import {FileName}

The last environment variable C4DPYTHONPATH3XX is always bound to the python version shipped with Cinema 4D to ensure compatibility. With that said in the latest updated as said in the Python SDK Documentation - What is New we updated Python from 3.9.1 to 3.10.8. Therefor the environment variable used by Cinema 4D 2023.2 is not anymore C4DPYTHONPATH39 but C4DPYTHONPATH310.

So long story short, updating the environment variable name to C4DPYTHONPATH310 should fix your issue.
Cheers,
Maxime.
