It looks more like the industry is moving to cross compatible file formats like USD. So in that case, it's the responsibility of Autodesk to write an importer that automatically converts the shaders.

However I would not expect Autodesk to be bothered with providing a solution for converting CC4 textures to Arnold either as they are not the party claiming import compatibility with Iclone/CC4, it is Reallusion who is claiming & advertising export compatibility with the major 3DCC’s and game engines with their export presets. Also USD to Maya is not a good solution if you want to have fully editable animation rigs in Maya as we have with FBX import RAG DOLL COLLISION ANIMATIONS FOR ICLONE 8 & 7 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ghost Origins My latest Feature length film created with Iclone.

You just have to conect the transparency to the opacity and you're all done. Just render. One iclone character only recquires one minute of work un C4D, SO a scene with 10 characters would only need around ten minutes of your time for 'adapting' your iclone characters to C4D and render in Redshift,,, which is pretty and fast. In Maya tales around 2 hours or maybe more,,, beautiful result buuuutttt time consuming. https://youtu.be/avdKI-KvUP8?si=5MyAa7f1_3gq7s_x That vídeo is all cc4 characters, animated in iclone and rendered in maya-arnold, Cinema 4D-Redshift and Houdini -Redshift
