I am attempting to convert my Max rigged birds into iClone rigged birds.

The birds use a non-standard bone rig (that is, rigs I have created not BiPed) and of course it has no hands but has feet with 4 toes each... and they rely heavily on using morphs for phonemes and wing folding etc

I find that I can export from max (via the iClone plugin) or I can export via FBX and bring into 3DXchange - But once turned into an avitar, the bones work to deform the mesh (no IK though), but I have no morphs, because I cannot “Characterize” my model.

All the bones and morphs are apparent in 3DXchange, I just need to get them into the final Avatar.

Are you familiar with a method (or can you direct me to web tutorials) that can clarify this process form me.

I appreciate any guidance you can provide.
