.C4D import
Hello Greg,

I've some c4d files I downloaded on http://tf3dm.com/ I wanna import into EE. I don't have cinema4d to export them in another format...

It will be great if EE can import C4D files grin

I have an other model with a lot of C4D files just for all animations (this one http://tf3dm.com/3d-model/big-dragon-40-...20634.html )

I don't think there's any public C4D file format spec available.
The best way I think is to open them in Cinema4D and export to FBX.

I believe C4D has Melange interface library for read/write for C4D format, However I am not sure as to their usage license regarding it.

I also found
https://github.com/acgessler/assimp-cinema4d

You wouldn't actually need source code to make this plugin yourself, as I know this has been done with C4D and EE before.

Thanks Zervox, Melange library could just be what's needed for that.
I've added C4D importing to the roadmap.
