[CC3 to Unreal] Auto-Setup Plugin Download & Update History

Plugin Download & Update History

You can download the plugin "Character Creator & iClone Auto Setup" from HERE.

From v1.01, Unreal users can install (copy) the plug-in under the project folder only. Installing the plug-in in engine-level is no longer supported.
The file format is changed from .zip to .exe. You get the same folders after executing the installation file, and copy the folders for auto setup.
Once you update Character Creator to 3.1, and update iClone to 7.6 or any version above, an update notice will prompt upon program startup if there is a new release of the auto-setup tool.

Enhanced: Shortened the texture names and file paths (by removing " pbr / tra / Transparency ") to conform with Windows API limitation of 256 characters.
Enhanced: Shortened AutoSetup Material file path (changed "Material_instances" to "Materials").
Fixed: Only the Standard shader is kept on the character when it is brought into Unreal, even when LW or HQ profile is select. (FT #6604, FT #6665)

Added: Adjusted linkages for the new Epic Skeleton IK bone settings that accompany the CC Unreal preset.
Added: Shader assignment and UE4 skeleton mapping on characters exported from iClone is now automated.
Added: Shader assignment on props exported from iClone is now automated.
Enhanced: Linked textures in CC do not associate correctly when exported to Unreal Engine. A Json file is provided to fix this inconsistency and apply the textures correctly onto the material.
Enhanced: LODs are now placed within the same FBX file and will automatically be configured by the plugin when loaded. The FBX file must be prepared with a special LOD group format.
Enhanced: Structural change for Reallusion Unreal Light Weight, High Quality, and Standard shaders. This updated structure now supports diffuse color, tiling, strength, offset, opacity, and two sided.
Fixed: When the sampler type is set to linear color during node creation, instead of using greyscale, the TGA image file becomes indexed color causing a read error.

Beta 2.1 (May 6th, 2019) - Compatible with CC3.04 or above

Enhanced: Add mask on LW Shader and HQ Shader as the workaround of tessellation issue. (see details HERE)

Beta 2.0 (April 9th, 2019) - Compatible with CC3.04 or above

Beta 2.0 (March 15th, 2019) - Compatible with CC3.04 or above

Enhanced: Simplified script execution procedure -- please find this post for detailed instructions

You can simply drag and drop a FBX file and the rest of the procedure will be automated.
You can now use the Import Button to bring FBX files into Unreal.

Added: Customized Unreal Digital Humans shaders for hair, eyes, tongue, teeth, and skin. The skin will come with two shaders:
- HQ skin shader (high quality): using Unreal Digital Human as a base, we adjust the settings to up the ante on visual quality.
- LW skin shader (lightweight): based on the shaders from Epic Game's Paragon, we leverage their highly optimize skin shader without compromising visual quality.
Added: Automatically split ORM textures into separate channel assignments for AO, Roughness, and Metallic.
Added: Assign the equivalent UE materials based on what was deployed in CC3:
- Traditional -> Specular
- PBR -> Roughness & Metallic
Fixed: Skeleton meshes for Motionplus will now be re-imported.
