Hi all,

Has anyone been able to get iClone / Character Creator (cc3+) characters working with Faceware Retargeter? I’m in Maya struggling with it. Very difficult to set up the blendshapes (I have found the Morpher tile in the Hypergraph Hierarchy, which lets me add rig controls, but the Expression Set doesn’t work - it doesn’t remember the Blendshapes keyframes inside the Character Setup File, so AutoSolve doesn’t work).

I tried the Faceware plugin for iClone but the results just weren’t good enough for me. And their newest offering, Faceware Studio, is about $4,000 a year which is too expensive for me - given all the other costs of mocap suits etc. So I’m trying to get their “legacy” software to work - which is much cheaper (~$500 a year).

But their tutorials and documentation only covers “joint/bone” rigged faces really. Blendshapes are glossed over.

ps. The “Morpher_CC_Base_Body” tile is what I’m using inside the Hypergraph Hierarchy. Is that maybe wrong?
