Cinema 4D Plugin to read .MTL-files

The project is to create a plugin for Cinema 4D XL v8.1 using the SDK from Maxon ([[login to view URL]][1]). The plugin should read and parse .MTL-files which specify material settings for Wavefront objects (.OBJ). It should then update the existing materials in Cinema 4D with the data loaded from the .MTL-file. Scenario: A user loads an object which has a reference to a .MTL-file. Since Cinema 4D does not natively support the .MTL-file format it creates default materials for the object. Instead, the user runs the plugin. The plugin asks the user where to find the .MTL-file, opens it and parses it. The materials default values should then be updated with the ones read from the .MTL-file including textures, transparency and such.
