Hi,

I want, that 2 C4D-Versions (R16 and R17) are sharing the same content library.
I know that this was possible, but I cannot find it anymore how to do it.

Maybe someone can help?

thanks
Mike

I think you need to use symbolic links. I'd like to try this too. This might help:

Well, that was easy. Worked a treat. I also used this link to help, its shorter and clearer:

Ah, I see the problem. It doesn't work in R17 for some reason. R16 is fine with the symlink, so, for now you can leave the 'master' library inside the R17 folder and create the symlink to that for previous versions of cinema.

thanks!
Yes, Link Shell Extension was the thing I was looking for
and it works how you said. R16 to R17.

But strange, that its not working with R17 ???

thanks
