Hi Jennifer,
I must admit I did not try QuickTime player, I still have it on my system, but you may be aware Apple announced a number of years ago they would no longer develop or support QT on the Windows platform.  It is a shame as I really liked how you can scrub the video timeline in QT.  Sadly that has put QuickTime onto my legacy list and I have had to stop using it day to day in favour of VLC.  Undoubtedly as the years progress you will run into more and more media that may not play properly because of Apple's decision  but as you have found, simply using another media player can resolve the problem, even if it take you away from your favourite player.

I am working on a new iClone 7 course at the moment, should be out later in the year all being well.

Dear Alan,
Good to hear that you will be creating iClone 7 tutorials!!
Can I get on your mailing list to keep me posted when it is ready?
I have another question for you that Reallusion has not responded to as yet. Perhaps you may have some insight into this. I am working on tutorial 103-08.12 Reach Target to Fix Hand Jitter.
With Georgina selected I click on the Edit Reach Tool and no panel for this function appears. Although I can select hands or neck on Georgina with a mouse click there is no way to proceed any further without the Edit panel. (And the panel is not behind any of my windows...I checked!)
Is this a software glitch at RLs end?
Have you encountered this.
Any input gratefully received.
btw... we are fellow limeys!

Hi Jennifer,
Reallusion will undoubtedly be heavily marketing the course when it is released so if you have your account set to receive notifications and newsletters from Reallusion then you should not miss anything.

As to your technical problem, I am afraid I cannot re-produce it.  I do not have the Georgina avatar from the course assets to hand but I loaded a range of avatars from the Reallusion library all the way back to a G3 one!!  In all cases I was able to get the Edit Reach Target dialog box to appear after selecting each one of the avatars.

The only things I can think of are the following.
1). Do you use a dual monitor setup?  Is the dialog on a second monitor that is no longer connected.  (Fix is to use the 'Window/Workspace/Reset Layout' feature)
2). CC characters have clothing and accessories, make sure the base Avater is selected in the scene manager, otherwise the Edit Reach Target button will not appear in the modify panel

Finally, is this only happening with the Georgina asset?  Or does it happen with any avatar from your library?

Hello Alan,
May I ask what is the name of the low res proxy? I can't find it in the zip files.
Thanks in advance

According to "103-03.06 Loading the demo scene",
there should be a folder "IC6 Camera Work" and a file called "Warehouse EX".

I really could not find it or its replacement.
Any idea?
Thanks

Hi imagination304_023567
Please bear with me while I check the archives as I have not watched that video for some time and will need to check it against the missing asset list.
Be in touch soon.

It works now! Thanks a lot!

Great stuff, thanks for letting me know,

Hi Alan,

I've been working through the iClone6 Fundamentals in iClone7 and have hit a problem now I'm in 103. All of the Beer Garden projects are causing iClone7 to crash while trying to open them (as does the beer garden project in the 102 folder). Checking further it looks like the problem happened between EX-Beer Garden 003 (which I can open) and Ex-Beer Garden 004 (which causes a crash). 

I'll go back to that point and build the rest of the beer garden for myself, but I was wondering if you know what might cause iClone7 to crash after this point.

Is the iClone7 course going to be available soon?

Cheers

Mike
