Help Installing Arnold

Anonymous — Tue, 25 Feb 2020 15:23:46 GMT

Hello,

I'm having an oddly troublesome time trying to figure out how Arnold gets installed for C4D. I just subscribed for a month and i downloaded the file it shows in my products page. The file is called "Arnold-6.0.0.0_SDK_MacOSX" and it seems to be the only package i can find to download on the page.

Once downloaded, the instructions say to click the installer files, yet there doesn't seem to be a dmg or anything of the sort in the folder. It's almost like this needs to be placed somewhere, but the instructions don't say to do that (i'm guessing the installation guide is generic for any software, perhaps except Arnold).

What do I do with the folder "Arnold-6.0.0.0_SDK_MacOSX"? I tried referencing the PDF, but it was like reading a second language so hopefully I dont need to code anything.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I am no Arnold whiz but it looks like you need to download the Arnold to C4D plugin from this website:
