If it cannot do so, the licence will stop working and you will need to contact us by email through our support email address. After that it will not need to validate the licence every time you run Cinema, but it will need to do so once within every 21 day period after installation. When you click the 'OK' button X-Particles will validate your licence by communicating with our dedicated server. A dialog box appears like this:Įnter the name and email address used to purchase X-Particles into the relevant fields, and enter the licence supplied by us into the 'Licence' field. When you restart Cinema after installation, you will need to enter your licence. If you do do this, X-Particles will still run, but the online updater may or may not work correctly if X-Particles is not installed in this location, for the reason given above. If you install X-Particles into the same location as the Cinema 4D executable

The reason for this is that if you install X-Particles into the plugins folder where the Cinema 4D executable is located, the online updater will sometimes fail, due to the protection given by the operating system to the Program Files (Windows) or Applications (MacOS) folders. Unzip the downloaded archive file into that folder. Within that folder you will see a folder named 'plugins'.

The user data folder for Cinema 4D can be found in Cinema itself by opening the Preferences dialog and looking at the bottom of the ‘Interface’ tab: It is strongly recommended that X-Particles is installed in the plugins folder in the user preferences folder rather than the folder containing the Cinema 4D program file.
