Hi Guys

I really need some help or advice, i have been having a problem with character creator 3 for over a month now and don't know what to do as it has sent all of my planning for my project out of the window i think i've pinned it down to headshot...(i think because i'm losing my mind at this point).

For the past month, i'm continuously having problems trying to create and export a single character. I've remade the same character over 80 times (that seriously is not an exaggeration).
whilst working on the character too much character creator was crashing and I would have to start again.
i couldn't save the character because it would just tell me the file was corrupted if i tried to re-open it, it wouldn't export or save the textures either.

I have uninstalled an re-installed character creator numerous times and nothing changes, i started putting it down to my system so i went and bought a new one which has 2.5tb hard drives, 32gb ram, amd 9 9300 12 core, Nvidia rtx 2070 and it's still doing the same thing.

If i start a new project and save it straight away or do minor changes it's fine even and i can send it to iclone but if i load anything through headshot it won't allow  me to save, export as fbx, avatar, obj or even send to iclone

Please does anyone have any ideas on how to solve this because it's an expensive way to fail a project and it's honestly driving me insane.

thank you

I'm sorry to hear about your troubles.

I watched your video, and it looks like you are using images from the ThisPersonDoesNotExist.com website.

A problem I have noticed with those images in the past is that sometimes the filetype is incorrect, which messes up CC, possibly because of incorrect header information.

Try to load the image in a graphics editor first and then resave it as jpg or png before using it in CC.

I also see that the created character was completely white as if no textures were applied at all. In fact, as soon as you load the photo of the face it should be visible in the Generate Character window:

In your case there is nothing, so check for a texture after generation in the Headshot panel at the bottom left. My guess is that there won't be any.

So there is something wrong with your images. The problem seems to be fixed now because I took this one also from ThisPersonDoesNotExist.com. There used to be a Save option, which I don't see anymore. I believe that the images that I saved that way in the past gave trouble.

I would suggest to try with an image from another source and see if that works. Then, try to resave the images you have now as I suggested.
