Running Forester On Catalina / Big Sur

 

Mac OS Catalina /Big Sur and later versions require plugins to be manually allowed in order to load normally.

The following steps should be performed only once, and the the plugin would load normally afterwards.

Running Forester or any other 3DQUAKERS plugin on Mac OS Catalina / Big Sur or later:

  1. Forester running on Mac OS Catalina might give a warning the first time it runs. To enable Forester to load normally, open the Mac System Preferences – Security and Privacy, while Cinema 4D is loading.
  2. When a warning window pops up, like “ForesterR21.xlib” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified click on Cancel, and in the System Preferences – Security and Privacy click Allow Anyway. Repeat this for all issued warnings.
  3. Close Cinema 4D and run it again, this time when you get the warnings, click on Open. From then on, Forester will load normally without issuing any warnings.
