  Installing Materials

  Posted by Ryan Bechtel on December 13, 2011 at 12:31 am

  Hi, I’m a newbie when it comes to Cinema 4D. I found some materials I want to include in my project but I don’t know how to install them.
  When I load the material preset (the .c4d file) it just loads black.

  My system is an iMac 2.93Ghz Intel Core i7 8GB RAM, Cinema 4D R12

  I used load material presets in the media manager.
  I also tried double clicking the file and that’ll bring the material into the project. I can got to save material from there but that doesn’t seem like it would be the easiest way to do it.
