It looks to me that the 40 are just selections from the premade effects that come with the editor, brought into iClone for your convenience, but you can just as easily go and export them from PopcornFX yourself, so if you don't buy them from Reallusion, you can still get them for free. The thing like the bugs crawling on the face, that is one of the included ones if you use the editor. The 40 are for people who don't want to mess with the editor. If you use the editor though, you can get hundreds.
I was hoping for a cheaper price, because frankly I think they should have just updated the particle engine as part of iClone 7, but whatever, I'm cool with $99. If it were $150 or more I'd be pissed since it is only 25 euros for other platforms. I assume though that the non-commercial restrictions don't apply to iClone so whatever, I'm happy. I need $50 more to afford the upgrade though, it would have been helpful if this preorder info came before Black Friday.I think the price is fair. Just like indigo pricing. But I hopt this doesn't turn out like indigo plugin. :D

oO !!! Absolutely fantastic! By buying it I thought I would add a tool for some practical stuff in Iclone ... but here .... we come up with an amazing tool that overcomes some Iclone's lacks of production. The evolutions of the production environment of Iclone are exceptional! (For my part, in the important things, I think it just miss the rendering by passes ! :D)

Whoa...@3:20, the fur....looks awesome, very excited!
BUT - the video is sped up. The user is not so advanced in iClone that they drag assets at warp speed, no. That is a sped up video.
And what you see, when using the fur feature, is a jagged slider movement, which means this will be a Slow-Down affair for iClone, at least in the early goings. Which means, combining big texture scenes, with an avatar with high res textures/hair, PLUS PopcornFX effects will bring iClone to a crawl. Get ready to tax your 'system resources', as they say.
PS - Doubt that is not some early version from months ago that has since been improved, no.
And I ordered it too, so I am hoping I am wrong, but time will tell....
Especially slider lag-time, that will really tell...
So. If there is any slider lagginess, optimize it NOW. Not later, when all start complaining!
NOW.
OPTIMIZE NOW.
##OPTIMIZE POPCORNFX 4 ICLONE NOW N B4 RELEASE DATE ON DECEMBER 25 SO THAT WE DONT HAVE THE SAME CHOPPY LAGGINESS LIKE IS SHOWN IN THE SPED UP WIP VIDEO BECAUSE EVERYTHING LOOKS AMAZING WITH THIS THING

Just a precision for new user. Iclone is a GAME ENGINE , It's not a blender/houdini/3ds/Maya software wich can handle hires mesh and texture.
You have to think like Game. Hero Characters polygons must never exed 80 k poly , one or 2 Atlas textures max , Instance your props for set , etc.....
If you want huge scene with 80 characters , 200 props , etc : Build it as a game or you will be desapointed of the realtime performance .
But yes , todays playing new game at 60fps with all anti-aliasing need good graphic card.
