I will try my best and answer some of your questions.

You do not need to uninstall iC5 I still have iC4 and Ic5 and now iC6 installed.

Lets say you have iC5 open and use the send to 3dxchange to alter something. When you go to export that something you will then have the option to export to iC5 or iC6.

At the moment this is not possible with iC6 open to send anything to 3dxchange 5 but hopefully not to far away will be 3dxchange 6 when this feature will be possible.

First... Do not remove iClone 5.

Unless you are having a disk space crisis, just leave it there.  If you have any old projects that have trouble opening in iClone 6 you will still be able to open them in iClone 5.

Second... 3DXchange 5 will be able to import models into iClone 6.

An update (3DXchange 6) will give full support new iC6 features, and will allow export from iC6.

This is about the time where Peter (RL) will come in and provide clarification, but I think I have the essentials correct, or at least close enough to help.

Hi Guys,

I have 3DXchange 5. I just looked here:

http://www.reallusion.com/iclone/3DXchange.html

It say:



Further down it says:



What does this mean?

We can still have 3Dxchange 5 installed, uninstall Iclone 5 and just use 3Dxchange 5 to bring in Iclone 5 assets to Iclone 6??

Can we still import 3D Meshes in OBJ etc from other applications?

Also further down it mentions export of Iclone 5 stuff only. I seem to think we need iclone 5 to be still installed?
