If I want to create a set of clothing for a heavy character, how do I go about it without the pipeline version? I know I can export the OBJ version, just I'm confused how I would do the weight mapping at that point. It also imports at a different scale as an OBJ, so basically, I'm stumped. 

Thanks in advance.

You can actually do all the body scaling morphing outside of CC if you want. In Blender, for example, the bones can be scaled in any dimensions in pose mode, and then that made into the default pose.

Check out this tutorial I did on asymmetric morphs to get an idea.

Thanks, yes I've seen that and it is interesting, but not really what I was hoping to do. I want to work around bosoms and fat etc. Is there a way to replace the mesh within Blender? oo, maybe 3DXchange can do it, maybe I'm not thinking this through well...

And that's a nope. Or at least it appears to be. Trying to replace the mesh on the base.fbx with the exported OBJ of my creature got all messed up.

I think Blender likely has a way. Not knowing myself yet, but maybe transferring weights as you would do for clothing would work.

Just make sure the names of mesh and materials on the "new" body are identical to the original names. CC needs exact names.

Yeah, I dunno. I think the key thing is the fbxkey file Without the ability to generate that, I don't know if this will be possible. How much are upgrades from pro to pipeline?

I cannot find any sort of upgrade page or offer to go from ICP/3DXPro to Pipeline. I hope they make this available, I guess I should contact support.

Hmmmmm. Ok thats weird
I googled. Upgade iclone pro to pipeline, went to the page and copied the url
