Option 1: copy the .py and .tif file to C4D_installation_path\library\scripts
Option 2: make a environment variable named C4D_SCRIPTS_DIR, and point it to the path of your downloaded script folder
The scripts are tested on C4D R26.107 and 2024.1, other versions may work. You can also change the script icon by replace .tif with your own file.
