Here are the scripts (original and modified), as well as the c4d file if that is helpful

Thank you, by adding the "import c4d" at the beginning of the script and "c4d." in front of the lines below, that solved the issues with the
StopAllThreads()
CallCommand(12410) # record

However, now line 16 says:
line 16, in <module>
c4d.SetFrame(user_start_time) # Set the current frame of the time slider
AttributeError: module 'c4d' has no attribute 'SetFrame'

When I try that, I get an error that says "NameError: name 'c4d' is not defined"

Hey all, I found this post from 11+ years ago by a user named
"bandini" that has a bit of code to bake animations. I am trying to update the code so that it works with the current version of C4D. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

This is what I've converted so far but I am receiving an error on line 11 that says:
in <module>
while current_frame <= user_end_time:
NameError: name 'StopAllThreads' is not defined

Here is the "updated" script that is giving me the error

user_start_time = 0
user_end_time = 90

fps = doc.GetFps()
bake_start_time = doc.GetTime()  # needed to initialize a BaseTime object

doc.SetTime(bake_start_time)  # set the time slider to the user's start time
current_frame = doc.GetTime().GetFrame(fps)

while current_frame <= user_end_time:
    StopAllThreads()
    CallCommand(12410)  # record
    user_start_time += 1
    doc.SetFrame(user_start_time)  # Set the current frame of the time slider
    redraw = DrawViews(DA_STATICBREAK)
    EventAdd(EVENT_ANIMATE)
    if redraw:
        current_frame = doc.GetTime().GetFrame(fps)
