  Silently install MAXON Cinema 4D R20 on Mac computers

  Hi all,

  I have been trying to silently install MAXON Cinema 4D R20 to Macintosh computers through the terminal

  The goal for me is to see if it is possible to silently install MAXON Cinema 4D R20 on client computers without any user interaction. I am going to be using an automation system to deploy certain software to client computers and Cinema 4D R20 is one of the software I am trying to deploy.

  I was able to successfully deploy and silent install Cinema 4D R20 to Windows computers
  Now I am trying to see if this is possible on Mac computers.

  The installation command I am executing in the terminal is

  “/Volumes/R20.026 Installer Web MAC1/bin/MAXON-Inst.app/Contents/MacOS/-Inst” -noinstallergui -accepteula

  Here is what the output looks like when executing the command
  
  It prompts for administrator login before proceeding to install Cinema 4D R20 on my mac computer but normally it shouldn’t be asking this if it is ‘silently installing’. This requires user interaction.

  I tried executing this command in super user mode putting ‘sudo’ before my installation command

  MAXON-Inst runs in the background but seems to be getting stuck and doesn’t proceed to installing. I would then have to force quit it.
  

  I was wondering if anyone has experienced this?

  Thanks,
  James
