Hi JB,
My guess is that the object is actually in the scene but it’s so tiny you can’t see it. You could scale it up manually, or go to [Preferences>Import/Export>Stl Import] and change the scale to something like 100 and import again.

You have to select the objects in the Timeline — not the object manager or editor. Make sure the Timeline is in automatic mode and that “show all animated” is active (both under the Timeline>View menu).
The f-curve manager is just another mode of the timeline, you can switch by clicking on the key icon at the top of the timeline, which will then switch to a sin wave icon, indicating you’re in f-curve mode (or uncheck View>Key Mode).

First, the path has to be in Illustrator 8 or earlier format. If so, go to Cinema and use the File>Open or File>Merge dialogue and select your *.ai file. Next, create an ExtrudeNURBS object. Click/drag the .ai spline in the object manager and drop it on the ExtrudeNURBS (to make the spline the eN’s child). That’s it.
Now you can click on the ExtrudeNURBS and adjust it’s properties in the Attributes Manager.

I’m not at all familiar with scripting, unfortunately, but as far as Cinema goes, I believe that COFFEE is a standalone language. You might want to check out this site for more help: https://forums.cgsociety.org/forumdisplay.php?f=182

The easiest way to do it, IMO, is to select all your animated objects in the Timeline and then run Timeline>Key>Mirror X.

Are you sure you’re running the Win64 Cinema executable and not the standard one? If so I suggest you contact Maxon support.

These guys ship internationally: https://www.3darttopart.com/
I haven’t used them but I’ve heard good reports from several people who have.

Nice result! I believe there’s already a plugin for this but I can’t remember what it’s called. You can also do this natively in the finalRender and VRay for C4D engines.

Yes, BP has a clone tool and you can clone from imported photos.

Make Preview — in the middle rendering icon’s dropdown menu or under the Render menu. You have the option of rendering OpenGL, full renders, etc.
