when it comes to animation it need to be reduced. not much like on a realtime engine. 
a character sculpted on mudbox without tesselation meshs can go easy to 5 bilions polys its impossible to animate it. so the model 
must go down for 1 milion polys ( if you have a powerfull render farm ) or for some like 200/300 k polys. actualy iclone can deal with 
180 k polys 9 ( per character ) without lose performance, its like i said its a thec decision from artist. thinking on hardware resources. about render. a static high poly model you can do it inside zbrush if you want. pro render for pro work need some optimization.  so if you think about create 3d ilustrations using high poly you dont want CC3 or genesis bases. just sculpt it. retopo it paint in substance and render inside substance using iray, 

iclone already use it https://developer.nvidia.com/vxgi

in its version 1.0 . like toolbag use it too. actuly the most poor version of VXGI is that one running on twinmotion. 
i sugest to iclone upgrade for 2.0

well  the goal would be to get them over here,  once they are here yall can make tutorials for them on the proper ways to animate.

I totally appreciate what you are saying being that I learned animation from a low poly view -  but I can appreciate their view as well, 
"I just want to render this today,  not a week from today after 10 hours of tutorials and lectures, no render,  no pay, ok ?!"  heh

look at the keyshot website,  look at how they describe it - they aren't describing it to a maya crowd

RAG DOLL COLLISION ANIMATIONS FOR ICLONE 8 & 7
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ghost Origins

My latest Feature length film created with Iclone.

My IMDB listing
Anabran Abdhul Quarnain - IMDb

AGREE. i use iclone but i dont like the way we need to manage props on scene and on timeline. when the scene is complex. start to be a pain manage many assets . 

With Stuck in a maze of lol that I do not know which one to address first
7. iClone has a GoZ pipeline so why not a Blender one.
6. I am not a Game Developer so Unreal and Unity are not my domain to comment on
5. There is a GoZ iClone pipeline but I can neither afford ZBrush or Mudboz. My software of choice is Blender Besides Reallusion 3D products.
4. I know about importing Camera but I have no clue to importing Particles into iClone. - Do you know of a tutorial that shows how to. Please share the tutorial.
3. I don't have After  Effects. My Compositor of choice is Blender. I quoted After Effects because it is easier to relate to its features.
2. Then again Adding Layers and Masks should not be a mammoth task to implement. These are just color adjustment on certain areas so I think it should be doable. Also is it possible to bring in a camera track from Blender. Could you find a tutorial if possible.
1.. I have seen PopcornFX 2 which is event driven. I have seen 3ds max's Event Driven Particle systems so I seek one within iClone (Not for Game Engines). Also PopcornFX Version 2 is an event driven particle system for Unity since more than a year.


So please share
1. Particle Camera into iClone
2. 3D Tracking with Camera into iClone with Blender if possible

Many Thanks

Motion Blur, Volumetric Lighting, Lens Flare are usually Post Production FX .
All these are processing heavy when done in 3D.
Even though it will be good to have all these FX and even more but I hope it does not impact the render time adversely.
Should Reallusion also consider a Compositor Add On to complement iClone instead of burdening the 3D Render Engine.

7 - a bridge for zbrush is good , when i talk this is not so important is cause i use mudbox to create content and sculpt cc3 bases on mudbox without any bridge so you can do the same with blender. so its not a critical needed feature. 
6 - i talk about game engines cause event based particles its not a natural/normal thing in game engines and talk about the big ones. 
unity and unreal dont have event based particles. ( already have but in preview not ready for comercial use ) and you asking to reallusion put it in iclone when popcornfx already is a powerfull weapon to create particles. and you always can bake your particles from 3dmax/c4d/blender . i bake particle flow particles into iclone using a script i am max user so i cant help you with blender ( i hate blender ) 
4 - already answered on 6 
3 i say lol cause , comunity know this is not priority to reallusion put a composer/edit inside iclone . they already have much problems to solve. 
2 - like i said you can bake particle flow(3dmax )  to import in iclone as fbx animation . like you can do for any game engine. just search on internet for bake particles to game engines like unity or unreal. 
1 i already made some tests exporting tracked cameras as fbx cameras to iclone but i dont have much sucess . the objects looks sliding
i believe will be something about the fact iclone works internal as 60 fps . when all cameras work as 29.97 /30fps .but you can do that easy just track your camera and export it as fbx camera and import in iclone. i made it using after effects and a script called fbx exporter. 

peace

Will IClone 8 support 60 FPS? That and less flickering are my two biggest wishes.

7.7.2 seems to flicker if an object is selected more than before.

What do you mean by 60fps? You can already render in 60fps.
