Is the model you have in Maya the CC base model? You cannot just make one. You need the specific CC skeleton and meshes.

Its the standar female CC2.1 character. I dont find much info about this error on Google, so I hope its fixable. Thanks for all your time so far :)

Today I decided to outsource the problem some more and I think I found it. Here comes a long post:

Image 2: Looking at the info you can see which bones that have a problem and what the problem is. Here you can see the CC_Base_Hip isnt complete with the bind pose.
I think that is why Character Creator or iClone dosent find the CC_Base_Hip when re-importing.

Image 3: Also, this is a interesting one.

Image 4: But the animations and rigg works fine :) 



So, now I finally know what the problem is. Does this mean that I have to rebind all the bones? Will that destroy the iClone structure so the bones isnt compitable with iClone or Character Creator anymore? 


Hope som rigging experts can help, so we can solve this.

Thats a great walkcycle :) So now that I know what to do, can I make a custom character and bind it to the bones for the Reallusion basemesh?

can I make a custom character and bind it to the bones for the Reallusion basemesh?  

That is another story !

You can create CC Morphs and conforming  DRESS, Hair for CC ....  but not create a new CC Character from a different Mesh for using in  CC 

if you want a custom character, that is   iClone compatible,  you need  to make a Nonstandard Chracter , with 3dXchange 

No matter where the Character come from. important is only it is a rigged FBX 

Here an Exampele how can rig a Character and converted to a Nonstandard  .
