Hi all,

We’ve recently noticed that a few of you have been inquiring about the possibility of gaining access to the iClone LUA script API for the purpose of creating your own custom scripted content for iClone.

While we’ve certainly made new strides by brining LUA scripting into iClone, the API in its present state is still being developed, and is still constantly improving due to our efforts to make it a more useful and stable tool.

Due to the fact that it is frequently changing and evolving, releasing it to the developer community at this time may cause content that you’ve worked long and hard on to become incompatible with future iterations. In addition, there is currently no debugging environment which would allow developers to troubleshoot issues with their content.

Therefore, we’ve decided to continue our work on improving the LUA script API until we’re satisfied in order to avoid future headaches. We’d like you to know that we’re constantly working on developing and refining the LUA script API so that our developers can have the opportunity to create their own unique and comprehensive content, complete with their own LUA scripting.

Thank you for your patience with this, and keep up the great work with your current content submissions!

Thank KaiD

Did anything ever come of this?

I'm wondering this too. Is scripting going to return soon?

Unfortunately nothing to report as yet.

The team have been hard at work bringing facial animation to your Daz and other non-standard characters in the latest 5.4 and the upcoming 5.5 update. LUA scripting is still on the table though.

As soon as more news is available I will post it here.

I'm really looking forward to it. Mind you I've over 500 props that will need modifying!

Any news on this yet??
Thanks,

iClone 6 has LUA scripting for Personas and also a second "generic" scripting.

With Persona scripting there is an export, so you can export a characters Persona and the resulting LUA script can be opened in a text editor and is fairly self explanatory.

The more general scripting is more of a mystery since there is no export.

I can't seem to find any description about it.
