TAaustin, sorry you haven’t had an answer yet! I would add a support ticket as it seems no real illusion person wants to answer on here. (Edit: to be clear, I mean because you’ve asked multiple times and had no answer)

The pack you’re talking about is very popular, and yes it does seem to overlap with the features being teased - I just think you have to wait until release to find out what will happen. in general, this new SkinGen system is an overall upgrade to the Appearance Editor and will replace it - based on things they have said before in this thread.

It’s a good point though - decals and stuff were a feature previously of the “pack” you purchased. It’s not clear if the that decal function (for example) will just be part of SkinGen and everyone will be able to do it. Or whether it will be part of the paid SkinGen extra thing. (And maybe they will give you a discount, and others who bought the pack you did?)

Thanks...glad I am not the only one with that question.

It's the weekend. RL people have a life too...

He said it was his fourth time posting, so I was trying to be helpful ) But you’re right! RL people have a weekend too! I think it’s difficult for many folks as they are eagerly awaiting this update, that’s all, and have questions. ) but in a few weeks we will all know all the answers! RL has a history of “making good” with deals and offers, so anyone worried about SkinGen somehow “ripping them off” because they have bought packs etc should try to just wait - I’m sure RL will solve any issues!! )

i also want to know...

Hello TAaustin,

1. When CC v3.3 releases, CC Essential Morph will be updated to be compatible with the new base (CC3+).  
2. The new morph pack (Ultimate Morphs) is not an updated version of CC Essential Morph. It contains around 200 new morphs and 12 character shapes.  CC Essential Morph will be a bonus in this pack.
3. SkinGen is not a replacement for the Appearance Editor.  SkinGen is designed for the new base (CC3+), while Appearance Editor is designed for CC1 Character.  The function will be active depends on which generation of character you are currently editing on the view port. 
*The full function of dynamic texture editing for clothes and accessory remains no change.

Hope it helps!

The user hadn't asked multiple times and got no answer. This was TAaustin's first post about SkinGen. His other posts were from two years ago on an unrelated issue.

Is there any ETA for when 3.3 will be released? We're almost at the end of July.

This was answered earlier today on the new base mesh thread with "Very Soon!". So, it seems that the plan is still to release within the next 11 days, but they're probably in the final crunch and won't be giving us a set date. I'm sure on top of fixing bugs and polishing at this point they're also trying to finalize documentation, marketing materials, and ad copy. I think we're all getting a little anxious and hoping this doesn't get pushed back past July. No matter when it comes out, it'll be fun to dive into the new tools and see what is possible.

There's actually 10 days left in July BUT the 3.3 release is very, very close now.
