using a figure wont work,export it as obj.



.

Has anyone figured out a workflow with zBrush and Blender to do this?

Alright. Try this, and see if it works.

Leaving Blender completely out of the equation for the moment. Are you able to load the non-modified RL base into CC? If yes, there is a Blender issue. If no, then re-download your bases.

@rampa: What version of Blender are you using? I'm using 2.77a

That's the one you want! Previous versions did not have as good FBX support.

Sorry to be a nuisance with this, but it looks like the problem is with Blender. I can load both your file and the RL base directly into CC, but if I put either of them through Blender it crashes when I reload it into CC. I have checked each of the Blender Export pages with your video and they are the same. I also had a look through the Blender Preferences menu, but couldn't see anything obvious there. Given I have uninstalled the latest version of Blender and then re-installed without any success I don't know what else to try.

The question is, why is Blender not giving you the same result?

Did you also throw away the "Blender Foundation" folder in Appdata? It contains preferences and the startup file. Perhaps they got corrupted? If you have any addons installed, delete them as well. I suppose something could be interfering with the FBX export. That seems to be the issue.

I had a look at file sizes. The FBX base is a touch over 3MB, when exported from Blender it jumps to closer to 6MB. With a bodysuit, It is around 10MB. Those extra skeleton bones would increase file size even more, as well as borking the whole thing. 

Can you save your body and suit as a Blend file, rather than exporting as FBX, and send it to me?

It's a Blender issue your having for sure. Those extra bones are the problem. Strangely, those are leaf bones that are being added. Leaf bones are added at the end of bone chains, and appended with "end" on the end of their name. I'll PM you my email if you haven't found it already.

Thanks Rampa for all your help in getting me past this problem. Your tutorial finally got me to make something in Blender and I'm pretty pleased with the way my first attempt ended up in CC.
