Thanks for the reply KT.  I did set up the bones for Unreal and used the matching per Rampa's diagram.  As I said, it worked before -- now using presumably the same export settings in CC, I get the following:



Both these were exported from CC & imported into Anima exactly the same way...not sure what is happening?

Since it's working for me I don't know what to tell you.

In the Anima import,, make sure you have "Automatic rotation" set to "Yes".


The skeleton is the same bones no matter which preset you choose. But they some do get renamed. I suggested the UE4 because it renames exactly the 16 bones you need to retarget. Makes it easier.

Different engines have different "up"axiis as well. I assume the UE4 export from CC is setting Y as up, as that's what UE4 uses. iClone is Z up.

Current Facebook conversation with AXYZ.



So if anyone has any characters to aid AXYZ's process, that would be nice.

I am working with AXYZ tech support on the issue of my characters imported in all different orientations, so I went ahead and sent them FBX exports from all 3 Reallusion packages I have, as follows:

• iClone.zip (iClone.fbx) - Base character exported with standard iClone (V7.2) settings (Actually iClone does not do a 'native' export - the default is 3ds Max, but can also do Unity, Unreal, Blender, etc.  I used 3ds Max since that's what iClone defaults to)
• CharCreator.zip (CharCreator.fbx) - Base character exported with standard Character Creator (V2.3) settings
• 3DX.zip (3DX.fbx) - Base character exported with default(?) 3DXchange (V7.2) settings ('Custom' setting?  May have been modified, not sure...)

I was trying this out. I also remember somewhere that Warlord had a tutorial I think - will have to ask him. I'm stuck on one step - I import into 3DXChange, and when I try and send to iClone, it arrives, but is not animated. What am I missing? When I try and convert to non-standard character first, it gives an error about similar node names or soemthingand still doesn't animate in iClone. Suggestions? Or link to detailed tutorial video?

Crap, I thought one of these talked about how to do it.  I'll leave them here anyway, but the answer is when you import checkmark "Import Animation" (and use 12 as your framerate) and when you export make sure you checkmark "export animation".  I'll see if I can put a screenshot:
