Invalid login credentialsthe second link does the exact same thing.

RE: How to convert an Xpresso Object Rig into a downloadable Plugin?
Thanks Ricardo,
So I came across the solution of locking my Xpresso set up, protecting it and hiding it with layers but the last part of hiding user data may have been explained the wrong way,
Here is a screenshot of what I would like to hide from the "users" side:
On the right hand side is the User Data menu accesable from the Attributes manager with my whole interface built in there, what I would like to do is hide all of that data from the "user"I understand that this might need to be re-built in python using the correct string layout.
also from my research I would need to write some python to be able to add an Icon to my Null object in place of the C4D Icons: I would like to know if its possible to change the icons which appear on the left so that my object rig will appear with its own custom icon in the object manager.
Are there any step by step tutorials on here which can give me a basic tutorial on writing a plugin that has similar properties? for example a "hello world" script which include a few lines of user data in the attributes manager with buttons and sliders as well as basic folder structure and must haves for a c4d plugin?
Thanks, Shir

RE: How to convert an Xpresso Object Rig into a downloadable Plugin?
Hi Ricardo,
Thanks for your speedy reply!
at a most basic level I would like to have the Xpresso rig exist as a file which can be loaded
and then have my user data controls available for people to use, but I'm interested to know how I could completely replace the tag and user data with a script as wellI essentially just want to hide my Xpresso and user data so that people have the functionality of my rig without being able to edit the input fields.
The final intention of my rig is a downloadable object creator which contains custom controls.
Thanks,

How to convert an Xpresso Object Rig into a downloadable Plugin?
Hi Everyone,
I've managed to build a complex Xpresso rig which I'd like to turn into a plugin,
I have no scripting knowledge besides copying and pasting or finding where the files should go so bare with me.
I would like to:
Hide my user data or transfer it to a script? it's currently on a null object and connected to an Xpresso tag
Add an Icon
convert my object plugin into a script or one file that people can download.
Sorry if I'm not specific but I'm having trouble figuring out what files should be in my folder structure and whats important or not.
Thanks!
