Hi there,
I'm posting this message 'cause I'm a little (read: completely) confused about whether I have to buy this plugin or not for my purposes.
I've purchased CC3+ Pipeline last week just for creating characters. I'm at this point of buying iClone 7 for creating facial text-to-speech animations on these characters.
I don't render anything in iClone. I just want to be able to export this mocap data/animation to Blender on this character created in CC3.
I've red something about it on this post, which is pretty 'old' by now
https://forum.reallusion.com/435492/Iclone-7-Export-to-FBX-is-broken--cannot-get-mocap-character-to-Unity#bm435498 From what I understand I can export this animation from iClone to CC3, which then can be exported to FBX. (Which is exactly what I need, I guess)
On the other hand I found this on the 3DXchange-page: "With 3DXchange Pipeline, you can import and
export all types of 3D assets, including static objects, animated props,
skin-bone rigged characters, and motion files."
As you can probably guess, this is making it really confusing for me.
Long story short: Do I need 3DXhange?
This is all fairly new to me and I'm hoping someone is able to clarify this as I've must decide whether I need this (or not) at our office.
Thank you very much.
Teun
