it doesn't work for me in the R20 versions, even if i take it into the plugins folder on the root (my plugins are here and work like arnold x particles etc)
@@visualsbyjasper For R20 version you need to download different hot4dR20 file and follow as the same in the video here is the link www.valkaari.com/?product=hot4d
Thanks! I see you were working on Cinema4D R17, gotta say that the process for follwing cinema4D's are a bit different but it still works. Thanks again
hey sir, thanks introducing us to the most epic plugin. BUT can you please tell me how you did the "isle" on your desktop ? i need exact this sort of scene for my project. would be awesome if you can show us a little " how to". thank you sir, have a nice and good new year . bye
very clear straightforward instruction - thank you. I didnt realise about the extra files needed to get it to work in Windows! Presume you can unzip straight into the plug in folder too ?
+0oseven7 Thank you very much :D. Glad you found the tutorial helpfull :). Yep you can unzip each folder to the specified directory :D. Just make sure that the fftwdll file is under the maxon plugins folder, and the Hot4D plugin is under the C4D preferences folder. :) Thank you for your comment :D.
Sooooo gooooooood - thank you so much, finally got hot4d running again! I couldn't use it for a while since I work in R18, but now it's back again ;) Thx for sharing that process!!!
This is maybe because of the R25 version, but i can't find that Plugin menu between character and Octane in C4D, even after linking HOT4D. If someone has the solution, it would help me a lot
Hi! i need some help!, I´ve already instlled this plugin, but it appears like "?" icon and the parameters are missing..... someone help (pardon me by my bad english), need help please!

Hello Brandon. Thank you for your comment. Sorry It took so long for me to respond to your question, It didn't send me an email notification for some reason. Were you able to find an answer to the issue? If its still giving you trouble let me know, i'll try and help get it running :).

Hello :D! Thank you for the comment! I think the Cinema 4D Light version is stored in a different location than the regular version of C4D. You can get to your C4D light folder by going into your Adobe after effects folder, and then the C4D light folder should be located there somewhere. Let me know if you can find it :). Also, I might be wrong, but I don't think HOT4D can actually work with Cinema 4D Light, from what I read, it only works with Cinema 4D R145 and higher. I might be wrong though, so it's worth a try :).
Nice tutorial man! but i have still a problem! i followed all but at the end, when i try to open c4d, tell me that a file: libfftw3f-3.dll can't be found! can u explain why??? thanks
Hello, David :)! Thank you for the comment! Did you make sure to download and place the fftw3 files in your Maxon folder like I show at the end of the video?
John Burdock damn i putted the files in maxon on c4d r16... AND I USE R15! Why i an so stupid! Haha anywhere thank too! Really cool tutorial! I was watching your videos because i'm doing a pirates of the caribbean fan Made trailer and i need a lot Of water haha! Thanks
Oh no, your not dumb, that happens to everyone :). its easy to get that mixed up :). Thank you very much! Glad my tutorial was helpful :D! That's awesome your making a fan made the trailer of Pirates of the Caribbean! Id love to see how it turns out once its finished if its ok :D.
Hello :D. I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble with the extracting process. I've never heard of this particular issue before, but I found this on the web. answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-files/cant-extract-zip-files-extract-all-isnt-on-the/60406193-3362-46d6-a3e4-20f503f0eadb?auth=1 The guy on this post had the same problem, and the answer fixed it. let me know if this helps you :D.
Thank you for the fast reply. That didnt really work but it got me going on a short mission. The problem was I had win.rar installed. I found a forum post that recommended removing it. I now have HOT4D and going to build an ocean. Thanks a lot John. I'm going to also check out your site. Also a thumbs up and I subscribed.
Awesome! That's very interesting, I never thought it would have been the win.rar. Thank you for that info :D! If it ever happens to me, I'll know how to handle it now :D! Thank you very much for the follow and the thumbs up :D! Let me know how the Ocean turns out, I would love to see it :D!
Hello Travis :D! Thank you for your comment :). Very true, dragging and dropping it, after it's been unzipped, will do the same thing :). I found unzipping to the location was easier for me, but either way is fine :D.
Stephen M Oh when you download the files, it doesn't install it like normal software. What it does is it downloads the files you need, then you have to manualy drop them into the correct folder in the C4D plugins folder.
hmmm. Do you have the HOT4D file in the plugins folder under preferences, and then do you have the fftwdll file in the Maxon Cinema 4D location under Program files? Do you have both files in the right location?
Not to be 'that guy' but why on earth do you have to go through all this just to get this plugin to work in C4D? ALL modern plugins are a case of 'drag and drop' into the plugins folder. Update this process please.
Hello Hoofer, thank you for your comment :). I'm sorry to hear that HOT4D is giving you trouble. Do you have a Mac or windows? Also, did you make sure to install the Hot4d alpha file into the C4D plugins folder under the C4D preferences?
Hmmm this is strange, have you tried installing a new version of the download? I would recommend deleting all of the Hot4D files that you have, and redownload new ones. After you get the new files, try doing the process of installing them again. you might have already done this, so sorry ahead of time if it is, just covering all the possibilities :).
Hello Roms :D! I'm sorry to hear that HOT4D is giving you trouble. What type of computer do you have? Is it a mac or a windows? if you have a windows pc, make sure to also extract the .fftwdll file in the Cinema 4D folder under preferences. :) Sorry if this is something that you already did :). Hope this helps :D!
thx for replying ! but i fixed the problem it was like hooferdrinkles but in another way like i didnt put the right files in the right folder. but thanks again your tutorial helped me a lot and you can you have french followers because im french ! thx again !
A man Thank You without guys like you i would be totally lost i'm self taught animationist learned strictly from youtube and i really learned a lot and came a long way and this plug in is very useful i will be given my donation friday well worth it
Thats awesome! Becoming an animationist is a really great goal :D! I've been doing the same thing. I'm fully self taught, and I feel your pain by learning on youtube. it can be very hard. I'm very happy that my tutorial was helpful :D! Its one of the reason I make tutorials, because I know how hard it was for me to learn it the first time, I want to make it as easy as possible for others :). I'm glad you like HOT4D :D! Its such an amazing plugin! I wish I could take credit for it, but I only made the download and install tutorial, I didn't help make it at all :).
:P dude i see you use 3d ripper....i have a trouble....im about to rig a map from Call of duty 2 but i cant open 3dr file with 3ds max 17 only obj file but its without textures....any solution? may i try with older 3d max?
Hello, and thank you for the comment :D! Hmmm, that is a good question. I'm afraid that I only used 3D ripper for Cinema 4D, I've never tried it in 3Ds max sadly :(. I would definitely give it a try on an older version of 3ds max. Would be interesting to see how that works out :).
I did make a 3D ripper tutorial, though. It only shows how to capture an obj file, though, and open it in Cinema 4D, so it doesn't really show what you want to do sadly :(. here is the link though if you want to check it out :) ruclips.net/video/KRCo0zJSiEA/видео.html
yes i started to use 3d ripper from this vid...my issue is the same like in the video i have got the .dds files in texture folder but it cant load with .obj file :(
Ah I see. What operating system are you using? Windows or Mac? Also, did you make sure to extract the fftwdll files in the Cinema 4D folder under preferences? You only need to do this if you have windows.
Hello Derix :D! Thank you for your comment. I'm sorry to hear that Hot4D is giving you trouble. Can you fiend your Maxon folder under program files? Also, make sure you don't click on Program Files (x86). This file doesn't contain your C4D Maxon files. Only the Plain Program Files has Maxon in it. Let me know if this helps :)
you're just the best tutorial i've ever seen. it seems you just put yourself as you were a random viewer and explain very well thanks a lot
Will this plugin work with R23? I can't seem to get it to install following these instructions.
C4D R20 hangs on loading screen when you add this to the plugins folder.
