Thank you for this work. I don't understand why Reallusion didn't design it themselves. Especially for 3DS max Vray. Good work.

All these things require a lot of work and subsequent maintenance, especially if there is new version of the host application that breaks things. RL simply doesn't have the resources for this.

Hi Nabisthe,

Any plans to update your script to support CC4 characters?

Thanks,
TRavis

Hello

Im using that CC Auto Setup for 3ds Max and hope u can help me with some questions.
So i have an CC Character exported -
in 3dmax in the CC Auto Setup i add the fbx and the json and import.
then i generate the CAT rig - at this moment there arms change a bit and get slight angled - changing the orginal fbx pose.
is there an way to avoid this change ?

i follow up a tutorial
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQiebNuBUXI
wich is about skinning bones direct to the catrig.
- this is done by 3dsmax ´s default SkinUtiliys , in a step you need to remove the skin modifier - the mesh snaps back to its orginal state ,while the catrig stays in this modified state.
also
i need to edit the cat rig - and make use of some twistbones that are in the CC bones.
my python knowledge is very limited. i tryed to understand how all this works.
i found a cat_data.json wich looks like this is used to align the CAT to the CC bones ,right ?
then there is a data.json wich looks like defining a hirarchy based on the CC bones ..guess.
also a cat.pyc and cat_make_mapping-json.pyc but these are ofc allrdy compiled.

is there any way for me to :
1. extend the CAT rig by twist bones somewhere in this files -before executing the cat rig generation in 3dsmax:
   also i would like to reduce the 5 Toes to 1
2. skip the transforms where the CAT rig gets slightly moved at the Arms
3. have the CAT rig parts named different ( in order to skip the renaming script from the video mentioned above)

hope u can help me
