I did a little test myself and it seems that FBX does not export facial expressions. For the speech the jaw moves but that's it.

I will leave it to the experts to come to the rescue...:unsure:

Hello, I am looking for help on how to get facial expressions into unity 3D. I am using a cartoon character (from the reallusion store) and have the most updated software (iclone, 3dxchange, unity) 

I have the character in iClone with motion, expression, and lip-sync (i know the sound doesn't export thats fine)

I use the collect clip, send the character to 3Dxchange, and send the collect clip as motion plus to get the facial and mouth movements. Everything looks great in 3dxchange, the character smiles and moves its mouth, i hit export to fbx, I click the right settings, I bring it into unity 3D, no facial expressions, the characters motion works and the lip-sync works but absolutely no expression. 

I cannot seem to find how to make the character in unity have facial expression. Does anyone know the solution to this?

**on a side note, I am successful at the facial expression when exporting the FBX out of iClone, however, it has also caused some serious issues when importing into unity and it doesn't seem like a reliable option, one wrong move and the character morphs into this crazy stick figure t pose looking thing. 

I am looking for any solution to get the character with motion, facial expression and lip sync into unity3d, we are using 2019.3.15F1

Thank you for any help!
