@m_adam it's strange, but this small script works fine without any problems with cinema 4d s22. cinema 4d r20 show this error only.

Hi @wob there is noting built-in for that in Cinema 4D. but you can use the regular python way to kill the current process

import signal import os os.kill(os.getpid(), signal.SIGTERM)

But I just let you know, that it may be useless by nature python should be pretty good at not creating any memory leak, and should free the data as soon as possible, moreover your approach ( I don't know the whole pipeline) but may also be a big issue for a user since this will clause Cinema 4D without asking for saving. People may lose their work. So I really encourage you to be very careful with the use of this.

Cheers,

Hi @wob unfortunately this is not possible, c4dpy is a regular Cinema 4D executed as command line with the NoGui, and as all NoGui Cinema 4D execution, GeDialog is disabled.

So its a limitation, and as said by zipit there is no Tkinter shipped with Cinema 4D in order to force people to use Cinema 4D dialog.

So possible workarounds are:

Install pip and install any 3rd party GUI module (but this is not officially supported by Cinema 4D so you may have some odd issues, but it should work). Execute a python script before from a system python installation that will create the Dialog and later execute c4dpy to do the Cinema 4D work.

Cheers,
Maxime.
