Cinema 4D in AE CS6/CC 2014 support

as AE CC 2018 and later introduced the live changes between AE and Cinema 4d, I was interested to use it , but I only have 4 GB of ram so cc 2018 wasn't an available choice , now I have CS6 and CC 2014 installed and Cinema 4D R20 Installed .

Now on the MAXON website's > Downloads > Plugins for AE , I can't find a connection between R20 and AE , there's only a R15/16/17 connections .

so I tried to install R17 connection on AE CS6 now AE has import/export capabilities for .c4d but not a real editing , I made a simple text on C4D R20 and imported it to AE and it was just blank , also created a text on AE and exported it to C4D and was blank too !

So is there a plugin for R20 or a way to install R17 ? also I read online that there's a cineware plugin available in AE CC 2014 is this plugin capable for R20 ? so I can just simply move on from CS6 to CC 2014 ?

Thanks in advance .

Correct answer OussK

the only solution between CS6 and R20 is to export your project form C4D as a movie file with alpha channel, than use it in AE

the cineware of CC2014 must be compatible with R20 anyway cineware is a plugin with light version of cinema 4d so if R20 are not compatible you can use the light version.
