Hi all,
I've made a male long coat in Blender to apply to a character in a scene. When I import it into CC to create the .ccCloth file everything works perfectly.
The mesh fits my actor correctly and the calibration is ok for what I need, so I "send to iClone". Everything seems fine, so I save the file.

Then when I load the iClone file again my dress/shirt/hair are corrupted. Looks like some vertexes are out of position and alterate the mesh.
If I check on CC the model is ok, and if I send it to iClone again it looks perfect, even during long animation.

Then if I save and load the file again the problem is back.
If I select the actor with the corrupted aspect and I "send to Character Creator" it then loads flawlessly in the CC editor, no bugs, so if I "send to iClone" again it overwrites the corrupted coat with a correct one.
But iClone will alterate it again upon saving/loading.

Here is an image to show the issue.

So my actual workflow is to load the file with the corrupted mesh on iClone, select the actor, send to CC then send to iClone again to override the problem. It's just very annoying.

UPDATE: looks like my custom coat mesh is not the responsible, nor even the custom hair. If I make a new plain character with just default male actor and a shirt, upon loading the shirt is altered like in the picture.

If you have an idea of what can cause the problem I'd really appreciate the help.
Thanks in advance!

I've started a new project from scratch, just added the actor and the cloths and the save/load seems ok now.
I'll try adding some props and see if the bug shows up again. Maybe something I imported as a prop was the cause of the problem, I'll try to see if it shows up again.

What OS are you on? There were reports of problems with older generation characters under Windows 7, so yours may be a related problem. If you run Windows 10 then it must be something else.

Windows10.

But I think maybe the problem was related in the way iClone saved pre-patch files, maybe while saving some conversion error occourred. Now all seems to be fixed :)
