Hi,
you can find the latest stable versions by visiting your personal Downloads area:
https://render.otoy.com/account/download_archive.php

You need to select your license type from the Select Software pop up:

Or you can visit the forum in the Maxon Cinema/Releases/ section here, the latest version is always on top:
viewforum.php?f=85

which version of C4D are you using?

Hello,
thank you I see okay... (C4D 23 I have)
I just wanted to figured out what version I installed and according to that info I could check is there any new version or not.
(After that I saw 2020.2 version and I wanted to try it. And I realized that 2020.2 has no C4D plugin it was a standalone version. I guess so I skipped that version)

anyway, I saw that I installed latest currently.

thank you.

Hi,
un the Downloads section you can find only stable versions.
XB or RC versions can be downloaded only via Otoy Forum.
You can find c4doctane 2020.2-RC6 here:

Hey Beppe,

is there a way to find what version is currently installed on my system (I use the cinema4d plugin) trying to match version on a new computer with other license. Just like the original poster I cannot find where it is noted. I dont want to reinstall newest version atm because Im mid project.

Thanks,
Silan

Hi Silan,
please go to c4d menu Script or Extensions/Console, (Shift+F10), the currently installed c4doctane version is always listed in the first lines of the Default console output:

ciao,
