I'm running CC 2.1, and it works for me now.

Select Input and then double-click Base Color and browse to your image. Drag-dropping will not work.

For a decal near the left shoulder (image 512x512), I have to set the Scale quite small (0.06). Horizontal is -0.21 and Vertical is -0.33. You can try that as starter values.

I clarified my earlier post: it's the PBR settings that don't allow the application of custom decals.

I have clothing with decals that I want to convert using the new PBR material settings, but I cannot apply a custom decal in that case. so this should be fixed.

Was this ever fixed?  I just ran into this problem yesterday -- I was able to add a custom decal to a traditional texture shirt, but unable to drag any image to the Diffuse (or any other input) when in PBR mode.

i use conform to Calculate collisions. it is ok on CC2. i export it as iAvatar for 3DExchange. when i open iAvatar in 3DExchange Callucate collisions edits disappear. because i need transparency/png i have to use 3dChange to export fbx to Unity. How can i transfer corrected cloth data to 3DXchange?

CC 2, iClone 6.5, Indigo

With avatars created in CC 1.5, iClone used to assign a special preset skin (head and body parts) material for Indigo (see image below).
I just morphed a first character in CC 2 and tried it in iClone 6.5. Indigo now simply uses Auto-convert for the skin. And skin does not render well in Indigo to say the least (despite of various attempts to play with material settings)
Is there a way to assign a special skin preset with CC 2 characters?

There are a few users having this same issue. Very curious, as iClone has no problems.

I'm just looking to get started and I'm having the same issue the user above me was: Character Creator 2 Lite is giving me the Direct X 11 error. I have that of course, and am above the recommended specs.

The download page says it's version: v2.0.1614.1
The properties tab on the file says: 19.0.0.185

And it is a single 1.11 GB exe installer file that downloads from: https://www.reallusion.com/character-creator/download.html

The 598 MB 1.52 version of Character Creator that iClone 6 prompted me to download, works.

Ok, I know what the problem is now.

For some reason, when I received Character Creator earlier, I got a zipped folder with unpacked program files and no installer. I just now downloaded Character Creator 2.0 again and this time I got a proper installer in the download, no loose files. So I installed CC2 using the installer, and now the program launches correctly. Playing around with it now.

I hope this info helps anybody else running into this issue. If you're still not getting a proper installer file in your download, you should probably contact customer support to get the file.

A little more info: I'm running on Windows 10, x64, with GTX 960. I'm running a fairly recent driver but I'm about to try the latest driver update. BRB with result.

Edit: Nah, it's not working with updated Nvidia drivers. Even tried running 'as administrator' but still getting the error.

Hi,

I installed the iClone 7, iClone7 3DXchange Pipeline and Character Creator 2.0 betas today.

So far iClone and 3DXchange appear to be running fine but I can't get Character Creator 2 to launch. I keep getting the following error:

I don't understand why this is popping up because I have a GTX 960 installed, and I don't get this error with other programs that require DirectX 11. I'm not sure anyone else is seeing this problem with Character Creator 2, but I was hoping somebody here might have an idea what might be going on here.

Thanks in advance for any helpful info.
