Thanks Animagic and Rogue Anime - a few quick replies for you both.

1. Support ticket - Yes TY, I actually opened one of these for this back on the 30th May.
2. Rampa was the person I talked with in the Support ticket (116570). He signed himself as "Best Regards-Rampa-Technical Support-Reallusion Inc". Hence me calling him a "support guy".
3. The issue I had was well documented with numerous files and screenshots being transferred [10 support ticket pages].
4. My post this time wasn't to re-open the issue or re-explain, but just to let anyone who was reading this thread, know the recent patch to CC did not resolve the issue.
5. The issue was left before with it possibly being my machine missing some DLL. I had hoped to get a new machine and the problem would be redundant. Unfortunately I'm still using the same PC at the moment.
6. There have been plenty of 'trying to sort' things on my part - The forum was only a part of that.
Cheers

(... I guess I did ask if anyone at Reallusion could help - but that was really a general question as I feel we exhausted most options from my end via the support ticket.)
FYI - Rampa has recently suggested a new setup I could test. 

Sorry, I wasn't aware of his new role... Congratulations?

Also, I don't believe anyone doubts you have this problem, but if it is something that cannot be repeated (by RL or other users), it is just very difficult to come up with a solution. 

For example, I have a project file that no longer opens, but it opens fine for others. So it's an incidental problem and those are hard to resolve.

I sure hope your problem can be fixed - stuff like DLL file problems - registry problems, make my brain bleed!  ~V~

@Val, You're welcome! Your profile picture looks very nice...

It's sometimes hard to keep track of all information and tips. Several years ago someone started an iClone Wiki, but it died.

BTW, I have trouble accessing your website. I get an error message:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in /home/content/93/4907393/html/RogueAnime/wp-content/plugins/wp-statistics/wp-statistics.php on line 16

Cheers guys - I'll post here if I find a solution. :-)

(... and I agree, that when the issue seems to only be happening on my machine, it's difficult for others to find a fix. Which is why I've waited as patiently as I can until I get a new machine)

Thanks a bunch for the kind words - Yeah- my sites all got hacked - hopefully will be back up today! ~V~

Hurrah!

It's taken loads of effort and many months, but this issue has now been fixed!

A combination of uptodate patches and reinstalling Character Creator and packs I've bought, have got the decals working.
Many thanks to Rampa for his continued efforts. All appreciated. 
Dave :-)
