Thanks Craig, I’m fine, I hope you are doing fine as well.
The QuickStart manual is perhaps the best point to dive in.

It is a very quick read!
There are as well some discussions or tutorials here, but I guess they build up on the materials above.
There is not a lot available, but just give it a try and when you have question, please let me know, I’m happy to have a look into it.
It is a deep application inside of Cinema 4D, and certainly has a learning curve right from the beginning, as the way one can apply informations is given in many areas. have an eye on many places.
I hope the QuickStart Guide gives you a little jumpstart and from there I hope we get things running. You certainly know how to use the filter options in the Tutorial section, this delivers some interesting content.
All the best
