Melange is Maxon(tm)'s proprietary interfacing library to read and write C4D files and it is a necessary dependency for assimp-cinema4d. For this reason, this code lives in a separate repository to make clear that it has proprietary dependencies and is therefore not fully free software (and its use is subject to the Melange terms of use).
To build:
- clone from https://github.com/acgessler/assimp-cinema4d
- download melange (v6) from www.plugincafe.com and put it into
contrib/so thatcontrib/Melange/_melange/includesandcontrib/Melange/_melange/lib/WINare available. - run cmake, enable the
ASSIMP_BUILD_NONFREE_C4D_IMPORTERflag - build either
DEBUGorRELEASEwith VC9, VC10 or VC11 (only these will work as these are targets supported by melange)
Currently no other targets other than Windows with MSVC are supported.
