Quixel Bridge LiveLink for Cinema 4D

Official forum thread of the Quixel Bridge LiveLink for Cinema4D. This LiveLink provides one-click export from Bridge to your Cinema 4D projects.

Note: You will need Cinema 4D R19 or later in order to use the Bridge LiveLink. The Bridge LiveLink only supports metallic workflow for now and may not work properly if you are using an unsupported renderer.
The Bridge LiveLink will use the current set renderer of your Cinema 4D scene. It is important to set the specific renderer you will use in the Cinema 4D Render Settings before exporting anything from Bridge using LiveLink.

Core Features

Import geometry
Setup LOD groups
Create material/shader graph and import textures
Apply material (surface asset type only) to selection
Support for Physical/Standard, Redshift, Octane and Arnold render engines
Auto-detect project's render engine

Future plans

Add support for the Specular workflow to all supported renderers
Adapt custom naming convention
Add support for the Corona and V-Ray render engines

Exporting from Bridge to C4D Redshift stopped working out of nowhere. I did not do any updates or reboot my computer. It was in the middle of working on a project.

Where is the Log file?

Need answers ASAP
