Hello! My team is developing a program where you should be able to change your character with a variety of clothing in real-time. We are using CC4 and iClone. We currently have 28 models of different body types and we have tried countless hours putting together a character creator system in unity. The view is that they will pick one of the base (naked) 28 body types and be able to select change their clothes from UI that we have already implemented. We do use the CC4 -> Unity plugin to render all textures and materials, but for some reason when we change the root bones for the clothing to another model, the clothing item either completely disappears, distorts, or just does not move no matter what. 

Is there anyone that could help tackle this problem?

Assuming that's the case:

It's not just the SkinnedMeshRenderer.rootBone you need to change. Each SkinnedMeshRenderer also has a (hidden to the inspector) array property of bone transforms (SkinnedMeshRenderer.bones) that needs to be replaced with an array of the new bones. As it's a property, just updating the transforms in the array won't work. The Entire array needs to be replaced with a new one.
