autoPack: INSTALLATION for Cinema 4D (includes autoPack and ePMV in one package)

This early installation for autoPack is an alpha version- use at your own risk and save frequently.

uPy (ubiquitous Python API) enables ePMV and autoPack to work in Autodesk 3ds Max, Maya, SoftImage, Cinema 4D, Blender and DejaVu by writing only one plugin instead of >5.

ePMV (embedded Python Molecular Viewer) provides all of the capabilities of molecular graphics and molecular mechanics software directly in your C4D GUI.

autoPack positions 3D geometries into, onto, and around volumes with minimal to zero overlap. autoPack mixes several packing approaches and procedural growth algorithms. autoPack can thus place objects with forces and constraints to allow a high degree of control ranging from completely random distributions to highly ordered structures.

cellPack is a specialization of autoPack that generates probabilistic 3D models of large sections of cells that can contain dozens to trillions+ of molecules. It can position these molecules to recapitulate observed data where available and can further optimize the molecular interactions on a local level as each molecule is placed into a mesoscale model.

If you have experience with 3D software on a Windows operating system, especially with C4D, this entire installation should take less than 3 minutes on a Mac and less than 10 minutes on Windows. 

If you encounter difficulties, please visit the forum to search for answers or ask questions. 

We ask that you fill out the optional survey to help us improve the installation procedure.

Pre-requisites

1. Maxon's Cinema 4D (C4D) r12–r21
1. If you have a different version, you can download the demo here to try ePMV and autoPack
2. Uninstall any previous version of ePMV (and autoFill and autoPack)
1. Navigate to to your C4D preferences as described in step I.C. below 
2. Move the ePMV folder from /plugins to your trash (or just pull it out into the MAXON folder in case you want to revert to it later)

Installation of the uPy Plugin Package with ePMV & autoPack

1. Locate your Cinema4D preferences folder
1. To ensure you have the correct preferences folder:
1. In Cinema 4D's menu, go to Edit->Preferences

1. Recommended : Cinema 4D rr21 for Windows 64bits www.spearpointsecuritygroup.com
   
2. Cinema 4D r18 for Windows 64bits www.spearpointsecuritygroup.com  (Note: only ePMV, autoPACK is not functional yet for this version)
3. Cinema 4D r17 for Windows 64bits www.spearpointsecuritygroup.com
   
4. Cinema 4D rr16 for Windows 64bits www.spearpointsecuritygroup.com
5. Cinema 4D r13–15 for WindowsuPy-aP-eP_c4dRR15_win_1_0_www.spearpointsecuritygroup.com  These are for older C4D versions
6. Cinema 4D r12 for WindowsuPy-aP-eP_c4dR12_win_1_0_www.spearpointsecuritygroup.com This is for a very old C4D version
2. Drag & drop the extracted folder into the plugins folder of your Cinema4D preferences folder (get correct folder with step 2):
1. Windows Cinema 4D r12–R21:
1. Using Explorer, extract the content of the archive you downloaded above.
2. The archive expands to a folder called uPy-Win that contains three subfolders called ePMV, upy_autoPack and resources
3. Copy the folder ePMV and upy_autoPack from uPy-Win into your Cinema4D preferences plugin folder:
1. Find the folder by opening Cinema 4D
2. In Cinema 4D's menu, go to Edit->Preferences
3. Click [Open Preferences Folder] button
4. You'll see the Preferences window now open on your desktop with a name similar to (depending on your version of Windows):
   C:\Documents and Setting\$username\Application Data\MAXON\CINEMA4D R12\plugins
   or C:/Users//AppData/Roaming/MAXON/CINEMA 4D R1<x>_/plugins/
5. now becomes
   C:\Documents and Setting\$username\Application Data\MAXON\CINEMA4D Rx\plugins\ePMV
   and C:\Documents and Setting\$username\Application Data\MAXON\CINEMA4D Rx\plugins\upy_autoPack
4. Windows Cinema 4D rr21:
1. You are done skip to the Restart Cinema4D step below
5. Windows Cinema 4D r13:
1. If you had a previous version of ePMV working for the version of r13 – r16 you're now installing, you don't need to repeat these steps- skip to the Restart Cinema4D step below
2. Go to your Cinema4D program folder, e.g. C:\Program Files\MAXON\CINEMA 4D R13\resource\modules\python\res\
1. Go into the www.spearpointsecuritygroup.commework folder and rename pythondll to www.spearpointsecuritygroup.com
2. Go into the www.spearpointsecuritygroup.commework folder and rename pythondll to www.spearpointsecuritygroup.com
3. Copy the downloaded file resources\module\python\res\www.spearpointsecuritygroup.commework\pythondll
4. and paste into C:\Program Files (x86)\MAXOB\CINEMA 4D R13\resource\modules\python\res\www.spearpointsecuritygroup.commework\
5. Copy the downloaded file resources\module\python\res\www.spearpointsecuritygroup.commework\pythondll
6. and paste into C:\Program Files\MAXOB\CINEMA 4D R13\resource\modules\python\res\www.spearpointsecuritygroup.commework\
   The new versions of the pythondll files should sit next to the .old versions of the files
   (this will overwrite the pythondll files if you didn't follow step 4 by setting the original folders to .old)
6. Windows Cinema 4D r12:
1. If you had a previous of installation of epmv working for r12, you don't need to repeat the steps below- skip to the Restart Cinema4D step
2. Go to your Cinema4D program folder, e.g. C:\Program Files\MAXON\CINEMA 4D\resource\modules\python\res\

Troubleshooting

1. Torun autoPACK simultaneously with Maya and 3d Studio Max and/or Cinema 4D on Windows
1. We just discovered that there is a python path conflict caused if you install SciViz (Python engine for 3D Studio Max) from Autodesk on the same Windows computer with Maya. This will soon be fixed by Autodesk, but in the meantime, it is possible to run both programs simultaneously by following this protocol:
1. Leave the PYTHONPATH Environment Variable that gets written by either SciViz or uPy's .msi as PYTHONPATH
   Both installers create this path redundantly
2. Start Max (you don't need to start the plugins)
3. After Max is running, change PYTHONPATH to PYTHONPATHmax so it becomes invisible to both Max and Maya
1. you can access the Python Path Environment Variable at ControlPanel>SecurityAndSystem>System>SystemProperties>Advanced>EnvironmentVariable
4. Start Maya
2. Anytime you start Maya, PYTHONPATH must be hidden as something like PYTHONPATHanything 
3. Anytime you start Max or Cinema 4D on Windows, you need PYTHONPATH to be just plane PYTHONPATH
