Some issues are more complicated, it takes time for us to fix all issues. To facilitate your understanding about what is still under development and what bug have not been fixed. Please kindly visit our section for General Known Issue. Once you discover an issue, you may immediately post on the Feedback Tracker which will make things more efficient during the feedback phase.

Notwithstanding, below are a lost of  known issues which is under development:

• When I open a iClone 5 or iClone 6 project inside iClone 7, the visuals are very different. IBL, Shadow, and HDR all have significant differences.
  iClone 7 made some big leaps in visual quality, which is to say, a lot of new technologies have been implemented that are visually distinguishable from iClone 6.
  
  • IBL Enhancement for PBR: a more flexible sync-to-sky design, and IBL bake-from-scene capabilities.
  • Shadow Enhancement: allowing darker shadows, casting shadows on invisible mesh, and cast-shadow-only lights.
  • AO Enhancement: the new HBAO+ gives much finer AO details, and provides an AO only viewing mode for easy observation
  • HDR Enhancement: fixing up the flickering and red halo issues, better adjustments for Tone Mapping

• Why does the viewport keep flickering when Temporal Anti-aliasing is enabled? 
  Screen flickering will likely occur when HDR, Bouding, Gizmo, DOF, Glow Bloom are used in conjunction with Temporal Anti-aliasing. Know More > 
   
• Why is it that the viewport does not change when I adjust lighting and Global Illumination?
  Try turning off the Auxiliary Light to see the effects of the scene lights.
  
  
• Why do old content saved from traditional projects in iClone 7 become grey when they are loaded under the PBR mode?
  When old content are loaded under the PBR shading mode, their diffuse channel will be set to sRGB. If a traditional shader project is loaded into iClone 7 and its content were saved under the traditional mode then iClone will not automatically enable sRGB. When a new project under PBR mode loads the saved contents, the material will turn out grey because its Diffuse channel is in linear colorspace. 
  
  You can fix this by checking the Diffuse SRGB in the Material settings or
   changing the Project Color Management to PBR and then saving the content.

• Shadow areas under certain lighting angles will possess a blocky look (pic 02).
  Both iClone 6 and iClone 7 have this problem, even more so in iClone 7 when PBR and IBL are enabled. This usually occurs when the light is parallel to the mesh face. You can fix this by adjusting the angle of the lights.
  

• When GI is enabled, the particles in the scene will create shadows (pic 03-1) that make strange square shapes on reflections (pic 03-2). 
  
  You can disable emission on particle by turning off Illumination under 
  Modify > GI Settings > Illumination, unless, if it is absolutely needed to light the scene.
  
  
• When the GI is enabled with a character's hair in front of an emissive plane (Glow), in the semi-transparent portions of the hair will appear many visual artifacts (pic 04).  
  You can fix this by checking on Translucent GI for the hair under Material > GI Settings > Opacity.
• Screen flickering is likely to occur around the scene environment when moving emissive objects (Material / Particle > GI Settings > Illumination) while the GI is enabled. This is due to a technical limitation where VXGI voxels are continuously recut and reassembled to calculate lighting. Workarounds:
        1) Downsize the GI Range to create smaller and denser voxels. Flickering created by smaller voxels are less noticeable.
        2) Move the GI Anchor closer to the moving emissive object which has the same effect of creating smaller voxels.
        3) Use Project Settings > Visual Settings > Global Illumination > Suppress Light Flicker to mitigate the effects of screen flickering.

• The scene suffers from over-exposure when GI is enabled and Anti-aliasing Transparency is set to 8x under the Nvidia panel (pic 05-1, pic05-2). This problem also exists for Unreal Engine's VXGI.
  
• GI is not supported for:- Toon shader, its effect will be the same as if GI is disabled.- Refraction enabled content, will not receive bounce lighting (pic 06).
  
• When GI is enabled, the reflections of characters' eyes become too strong (issue). Fix this by turning the project into PBR mode and change the eyeball shader type to PBR as well (pic-after).
  

• When View GI Voxel is enabled, some mesh do not draw in blue and red with certain graphics cards (pic 08). However, even without voxels displays, the meshes are still affected by GI.
• When a scene has too many scattered meshes e.g. a Speedtree scene, the light bounces can become too frequent causing a scene to become overly bright. You can try to declutter the scene as a workaround.
• Due to the voxelization of the GI bounce lighting some visuals may become unclear and blocky (pic 09).
