I'm fairly new to iclone, just the last few months, but if no one takes you up on the offer I just recently had to stumble through learning everything so I would be able to impart the knowledge on you. There are so many hidden sliders and options the deeper you get into it, making everything truly customizable.

Thank you! I've just PM-ed you.

But now I'm sad :<(

You KNOW I'll be glad to help you in any way you need -- just can't promise I'm always around.  However, if you do get stuck (even with help gotten elsewhere) remember I'm still your friend and will still be here (even if this old man isn't going to ALWAYS be here :>).

Thank you very much, Mike.
I've just sent you an email.
For visitors to this Forum, let me just say that Mike Kelley has given me incredible iClone & MoCap assistance and advice off-forum.
Frankly, I had given up on iClone & Reallusion products until Mike Kelley re-kindled my interest -- without even trying.
Perhaps I'll write more about all that in a later message. Maybe.

I tried to use the email address that you left, however I could not get it to work. What would you like to know.

Totally agree with you Prodos regarding Mike Kelley.
I've just watched some of his recent videos and they're *very practical* and he describes the "why"s and the "why-not"s of things - which is excellent.
I have similar learning difficulties and an 'aversion' to written instructions which are used as a 'last resort'. Why? - don't know really, - I just try moving the dials hoping for an 'intuitive experience' and there's only *some* software that 'resonates' with my creative brain.

The biggest issue for stifling the creative process (I find), is software that constantly demands intellectual input by the user. It takes me out of the zone. I find iClone ticks a reasonable number of boxes in this regard - even though of course there's room for improvement ...

just my 2c

Please be patient with me ..... I don't always 'get it' the first time 'round - not even the 2nd time! :(  - yikes! ...

Thanks for your comment sonic7.

You may recall a while back I PM-ed you that I was sick of iClone -- or more precisely the TERRIBLE video tutorials that talk too fast and leave out crucial steps -- and was moving on to Blender.

Now here I am again, still learning Blender (and Cinema 4D) and now wanting to ALSO give iClone another shot.

Totally agree with you Prodos regarding Mike Kelley.

He's got a quite a fan club, hasn't he?! :)
One of the fine gentlemen who offered to help me learn iClone also raved on and on about Mike Kelley!
I had to slap him to get that glazed look out of his eyes. It did no good. How do you fight a CULT?!
But seriously, yes, Mike Kelley is an outstanding individual at many levels.



Interesting observation.

Stay in touch! :cool:

A quick update to let anyone browsing this thread know that I've contacted everyone who has responded to my request -- either by PM or email.

Thank you!
