Cinema4D Materials

Does anyone have a good source for architectural Cinema4D materials? It doesn't have to be free, but worthwhile.

I have downloaded the "Additional Surface Catalog" available for SSA users, and it's helpful but still not a comprehensive collection.

Hi, where can you download the Additional Surface Catalog? I've been trying to look for it but can't seem to find it. Thanks!

Eduardo. I tried the suggested way and that sends me to the ArchiCAD program and library update page. I am a SSA, user BTW. It looks like they send you to the wrong place

That is a bug. I am getting redirected also and previously I could log in.

It worked for me too just a few days ago but now I am redirected to the library update page as well.

Yes I checked earlier today for another post and it is working.

However the link to the BIM Component Portal does go to the website but I can't find any surfaces when I search there.
But if I do search in the surface dialogue I can find one there in BIM Components ("C4D Grass" - maybe there is only this one - it is the only one I have found so far).

Why can I see it in the surface dialogue search but not the BIM Components search?
