I've downloaded the shaders from the Cinema repository, but which folder do you put them in? The docs don't mention this. I have a MAT folder below the main Cinema folder, is that it?

C4D materials are really just collections of settings, and sometimes include a referenced external bitmap image file.

To use a preset, open up the "filename.c4d" file, click on the little sphere in the materials window that you want to use, copy it and paste it into the materials window in your new doc.

Now apply the material to your model.

If it includes a reference to an external bitmap image, put that anywhere you want, and correct the file path in your new material
