Sorry, I don't really find a place to post my question, so I am trying here. I want to buy 3DXchange, but I have no idea if I should go for the PRO or Pipeline Version. I've read about the Export Option in Pipeline but, will I ever use it? My Intention is to Import DAZ characters to iClone. since I am not using any other Software beside of DAZ and iClone, would it make sense to have the Export Funktion? I think not, but I would like to hear how People that have already used the Pipeline Version would decide. Thank you!

To ONLY import anything from outside of Iclone you need 3dxchange pro .
I've the pro version and sometimes I export in obj format (when there'nt DRM) to edit shape or texture
in another App.

Actually I was thinking about maybe Export motions to DAZ but as I read because of the different bone structure it wouldn't work anyways. Correct me please if I am wrong. If that wouldn't work, then it would definitely not make sense for me to spend extra Money for the Pipeline Version. Also I don't want to spend amounts of time in tweaking and correcting bones or motions. It's not worth it for my Projects, to complicated.

Sorry , can't help because I never export bhv or fbx file from Iclone....

Thank you anyways, I am tending more to the PRO Version right now.

meet us here

Thanks Vidi. I took my decision, I went for the PRO Version. :-)

Hi - I am a newbie - come from Adobe Creative Cloud background
- which has FUSE  - allowing 'Mixamo' FBX exports - which I have tested used 3D exchange
- get the error message that 3DExchange only supports FBX version 2011 or earlier??
- that is five years ago?? - hmm...

The figure does open however - with bitmaps UV etc - looks good
- however although I see evidence of IK armatures - but when I open in iClone 6 (demo)
- there is no way to animate a sections (armatures) of the figure - comes in as a static prop

UPDATE - Figured out to enable the armatures.... no need to reply

Is there something I need to do in 3D Exchange - to enable all pivots - arms, hand, fingers
- they are all listed in the left pane - BUT - no way to specifically target then
- or for that matter release the entire figure from the standard T- Pose

Basic getting started tutorials - are there a few
many thanks in advance for advice
