Look for the Cinema folder and inside it there should be another folder called plugins, just drop your plugin into that folder and you should be able to use it.

Welcome to the forum Jrunk Guy, so you work with C4D too? You should post some of your work here sometime, we would love to look at it. =)

Welcome?  
hehe, Yeah, thanx Mang.  
Yes, I use C4D also. Neato Program.

As for renders,  
I’m not that much of a modeling-type guy. I’m more into Animation.  
I know this’ll have to change soon.  
🙂

Yeah Guig0, I saw his renders, they lookted great.

thanx.  
I personally thought it sucked. It’s kinda an old render, wayyy wayyy back in my modeling days.

Here’s another.  
Gold came to mind.

</div>

I forgot. But, I’m sure there’s a tutorial out there somewhere.  
I read the tutorial early back when I had version 7.  
The render time took 1hr 13 minutes.  
That’s another reason, I don’t like modelling to much.

wow it took that long to render? It doesn’t look that complex, I would expect it to be a fast render. I’ll try to look around for the tut, I think I came across it once, but forgot too. I’ll post it here if I find it.

I do some 3d animation at school and my teacher and I would have to hook up atleast 2 G4’s with 512 memory each to do our renders. I have a pc, but I haven’t done any hardcore animation renders here, just static renders.

</div>

oh. Most of my friends own G4’s. They keep telling me to switch, I think it’s about time I did.

For the soccer ball I only used primitives.  
Just a platonic object, made it editable, extruded it a little, hypernurbed it, and textured. Pretty basic if u ask me.  
But the ■■■■ render time. :bad:
