Cinema4D & Melange

Building

To enable Cinema4D file support, you'll need to grab the Melange SDK from Maxon's website. Assimp has been tested to work with versions 16.X.X of the SDK.

Unzip the SDK and rename the unzipped folder to Melange, then drop it in Assimp's contrib folder.

Melange only supports x64 builds through MSVC 10, 11, 12, or 14.

When generating the CMake files, use this command to set the flags and force an x64 build: cmake -D ASSIMP_BUILD_NONFREE_C4D_IMPORTER=ON -G"Visual Studio 14 Win64" CMakeLists.txt

Then open your MSVC IDE and build normally.
