About Power Robot System Monitor Pro
Power Robot System Monitor Pro is a lightweight plugin for Cinema 4D that places a floating panel inside the application to display live RAM, CPU and GPU information. RAM usage is shown in megabytes with a color‑coded progress bar that updates every 500 ms using the Windows API. CPU load is calculated with a delta‑based GetSystemTimes method, and a header reports the processor model, thread count and base clock speed from the Windows registry. Multi‑GPU support automatically detects all NVIDIA graphics cards, presenting one column per card and scaling the layout accordingly. The panel remains asynchronously visible and dockable within any C4D layout. The plugin runs on Windows only, requires an NVIDIA GPU for GPU monitoring, and relies on Python’s built‑in ctypes, so no external packages or pip installations are needed. Compatibility spans Cinema 4D R20 through the 2026 release.
Features
- RAM monitoring showing live used and total memory in MB with a color-coded progress bar, updating every 500ms via the Windows API
- CPU usage reporting overall load using a delta-based GetSystemTimes calculation
- CPU info header reading model name, thread count and base clock speed from the Windows registry at startup
- Multi-GPU support that detects all NVIDIA GPUs automatically, with one column per GPU scaling from zero to N cards
- Color-coded progress bars that shift green to yellow to red as load increases
- Dockable async floating panel that stays visible while you work and integrates into any C4D layout
Best for
Cinema 4D artists on Windows who have an NVIDIA GPU and need on‑screen, real‑time RAM, CPU and GPU metrics without installing additional Python packages.
Frequently asked questions
Does Power Robot System Monitor Pro work on macOS?
No. Power Robot System Monitor Pro runs only on Windows because it accesses CPU and RAM data through the Windows API and reads hardware details from the Windows registry.
Which Cinema 4D versions does Power Robot System Monitor Pro support?
It supports Cinema 4D versions R20, R21, R22, R23, R24, R25 and the 2023‑2026 releases, including S26 and R26 where applicable.
Does Power Robot System Monitor Pro require an NVIDIA GPU?
Yes. An NVIDIA GPU is required for GPU monitoring; the plugin detects any number of NVIDIA cards and creates a column for each.
Does Power Robot System Monitor Pro need any Python packages or pip install?
No external Python packages are required. The plugin uses Python’s built‑in ctypes to call the Windows API, so no pip installation is needed.
Is Power Robot System Monitor Pro free?
The catalog lists the plugin as free, but pricing and licensing may change; consult the developer’s page for the current terms.
