guys ! can i make a character without a leg or without a arm or more without the fingers inside character creator ?
I imagine you want to make some zombies with chopped off body parts.
Yes you can do that easily - but only possible with CC Pipeline.
It's very simple.
Make the legless/ fingerless body parts as a CC conforming clothing, and....
Done. :)
You don't need to concern yourself with making CC avatar opacity map
because, iClone CC auto-hide invisible body parts (one of its great virtues)
As to your desire to model in quad...
As I said in your other thread
iClone is built on a game engine, so not like typical CG tool.
All quad models are automatically converted to tris upon import to games.
Tris preferred over quad for games - for many reasons.
One basic reason = tris is better for realtime animation.
I also said tris can be BACK-converted to quads, in most modeling tools.
HOWEVER...
99% of tri models will have their vertex flow direction changed/ UV destroyed in the back convertion process
Messy. Not to mention, pointless.
So if you want to use iClone CC, you have
- to live with tris
- think like a game modder/ game asset creator
One (more technical) way you can still model in quad for CC
Use the RETOPOLOGY/ PROJECTION method
I have no idea your modeling skill, nor Mudbox retopo features, but
You can clone a CC character "quad shell" or outline in mudbox using retopology tools
then, sculpt all you want; after that
reproject the quad shell model's shape onto the original, untouched CC tri model
Done. :)
Don't need to touch any CC texture/opacity map!
Don't have to deal with tris-quad or quad-tri convertion!
Try not to overthink it, is the way to work with iClone.
As to Genesis...
Yes I have my very optimized re-UV Genesis workflow in standby
as a backup, pending CC Pipeline outcome.
