Guys reallusion support is so slow its taking weeks to get a working answer so far.
Wouldn't have invested in this if I knew support was so poor.
is there a way to just transfer characters then link and animate between two pcs?
Its not working for me and there's no clear answers out there I can only get it to work on one pc and its way to laggy for live streaming.
Both pcs are connected to my home router switch via long Ethernet cables.
Otherwise how exactly would I connect the character for live animation with my Xsens suit.
I'm relying on the transfer so far to create neccesary files to control my character via live link.

I've found a way around, at first connect everything and record the animation in level sequencer after that easily retarget them into the cc3 characters. A bit of hassle but you dont need to export fbx and retarget anything so worth it.

@onewone Overclocking the CPU and Memory increases the Livelink Framerate which means that  we need to upgrade both CPU and Memory. Intel might be the better choice this time with 12th Gen that supports DDR5 coming Late 2021 / Early 2022

im using rtx 3070 but it merely able to handle 3-4 character at the same time with a stable fps. Im also trying to use two machine but no luck

Did you try Nvidia DLSS already?

I haven’t been able to increase live link fps performance, even on ONE machine. However, the 3090 gpu has significantly increased FPS within iClone by at least 20fps. Now complex animations with face and body mocap are running at 60fps in iClone. This is not sustained through livelink sadly.

Someone has an update on this topic? Average framerates when using Live Link with rtx3090 and decent cpu? Live link over the network with gigabit ethernet? Tnx!

Thats weird, i get 40fps on a i5 4 years old with 8 gig of ram and a inbuilt gtx 950m card,

Only draw back why it does not go to 60fps is the cpu, 

in unreal put as minimal, turn all objects and cameras props of, you can export after, turn onto frame recording to decrease frame drops

In unreal don't use ray trace for capture, turn on wire frame preview, speeds up by 25%, I'm still however having issues with dropped frames, if it goes lower then 50 it drops i read, i get 41,

, next task is to link to pcs together, two i5's, this should work ok i think, one for iclone, one for capture

Good luck

Lately, I've been using the Live Link just to transfer characters from iClone but I export their animations via FBX. Live Link works for me with very simple animations. It's a great tool but maybe it's my system that needs upgrading. The 3090 looks like a dream!
