Supports Cinema 4D 2023+, tested on 2023, 2024.4 (OSX/Windows)

Improvements
- Indicate assets purchased but not-yet local with a gray checkmark, so that local assets with a green checkmark are easier to identify
- Added signal to remotely inform how an initiated download completed, so we may better monitor and improve asset download reliability
- Improved readme installation instructions contained inside the plugin download
Fixes
- Resolved issues with loading and rendering materials in Octane
- Resolved importing issues in C4D 2024.4, which would potentially cause incorrect material loading in V-Ray and Arnold due to new user C4D render preferences
- Resolved issue where notification header area could be rendered as a black bar
- Resolved an error which could occur when displaying total asset balance
- Resolved not downloading next closest resolution if the given asset being downloaded doesn't have a resolution exactly matching the one specified in plugin preferences
- Resolved issue where sometimes asset URLs would not open correctly
- Resolved issue where sometimes using the top-right refresh button could corrupt some data

Supports Cinema 4D 2023+, tested on 2023, 2024 (OSX/Windows)

Improvements
- Integrate checks for update with one-click update installation. Next time an update is available, users will be notified in the header of the plugin with a link to the changelogs as well.
Fixes
- Fixed loading materials onto some model assets like PlantMonstera001, which would sometimes result in unhandled errors. Note: Some older model assets such as this Monstera may still have inconsistently rotated meshes, we are working to resolve these issues through asset updates.
- More stable handling of missing thumbnails on server. Previously, a missing thumbnail could have rendered the UI much slower or even caused crashing, now it will gracefully move past the asset with any problems, and better yet, fall back to downloading the next best thumbnail.
