hi
how to import 3ds max head to iclone character ?
i mange to make some modelling in 3ds max and want to use them @ iclone
thx

the good news, it's doable, the bad news, it's complicated.

if you can live with making a face with a pic of the face you want, that is the quickest and easiest way, but it's also the least accurate. you give up detail for that easy button. - Entry Level.

you need the 2010 3Dsmax to use the iclone to max plugin to have access to the advanced features of the iclone standard character. - advanced level with an advanced understanding of 3DSmax and developer technical papers - http://developer.reallusion.com/

if it's imperative you use your mesh on the character, the most accurate approach is to use another program to create a rig of the head and body meshes you want together and import that. intermediate - advanced level ( especially if you want facial animation ) - not limited to 3DS max

Then there's the head morphing approach - advanced level.

and there's the ghetto fabulous way, just import the head like a prop, slap it on a puppet and call it a day! - a crafty innovative noob who can't be bothered with rigs and technical detail can pull this off with a hilarious script.

not using my pc now

i search for days about how to do realistic iclone face
most tut about using 3ds max or zbrush and import it to 3dx but as planetstardragon said " just import the head like a prop"
but see 2 good tutorial using facegen to make obj .. it will save alot of time and give texture

so very nob questions
3dx -> head morph -> export
facegen - export
i will have 2 head but different shape
how i can apply facegen exported texture to this head ?
is there a way i can modify the shape " if i say it right " of 3dx head to match facegen head ?

sorry again but i try my best to explain what i mean

Hello, most skillful one! I, too, seek your help in attaching a FG head to an iClone5.5 body! Should I send you a pic of my FG head? I take things slowly and carefully so I can learn everything. You ARE most appreciated!

Here is a another trick and it works with FG Head of course too
