Custom Character Design for Game, Film and 3D Print

This segmentation facilitates easier manipulation, adjustment, or hiding of individual elements within the ZBrush subtool list. The updated character can seamlessly GoZ to and from Character Creator while retaining its bone rig for animation and game production.

Reallusion has also dedicated significant effort to enable ZBrush designers to pose and animate their models effectively. Whether sculpting for animation, posing for 3D printing, or detailing expressions, a comprehensive character pipeline between ZBrush and Character Creator is provided.

I Just grabbed them thanks.
From a commercial standpoint it seems this is a good way to attract more artists to create custom Characters for the Reallusion  marketplace.


But Not so much for anyone wishing to sell individual game asset or animation ready character rigs in other markets such as Renderhub, Blender market or the UE5 & unity market in their native formats.

This frankly, is a bit of a shame because I am a vendor over at Renderhub selling Custom motion Data for Genesis 8-9 in native Daz (.duf)format and they sell quite well.
the vestigial Poser software  only still exists today because of Daz native
content subsidizing their marketplace  at Renderosity/


Reallusion animation content has zero presence, anywhere else, because we can not legally distribute Imotion file formats.
( And I get it.. you need to protect the Actorcore library market).


Intermediate formats like FBX do not sell as well as people really prefer 
content in the native format of their chosen ecosystems (Daz/.duf , Blender/.blend Maya/.MA.


My point is that skilled professional Character Artists would prefer to be able to sell in multiple markets and IMHO many will likely ignore your new FREE bases
when they realize the initial costs for (IC8/CC3) as dev platforms 
compared to making game/film characters for sale from scratch or with open source bases and testing them for free in Blender or the free game engines,UE5,Unity& Godot.

I'm loving this! I just have one problem: I'm using the CC/iC Blender Tools 2.0.5 in Blender and the Rigify button works for all of the FBX characters except for the Neutral_F. For her the button is replaced with the text "This character can not be rigged." I've tried in both Blender 3.5 and 4.2. I've also tried re-extracting the file with the characters, but still no dice. Any ideas on how to proceed?

Update: The latest version of the plugin was the problem. Rolling back to v2.0.2 plugin fixed it.

Hi, squeebiscuit

The Neutral Female file has encountered some unexpected errors in the newest version of Blender AutoSetup. We have already re-uploaded the corrected files. Please download the base file again; it should work properly now.

thanks

CC4 Characterbase.??
I'm not a Blender specialist, but I would still like to try it out, I use Blender 4.0.2 / Pipeline 2.05
When I import a character from CC4 Characterbase FBX into Blender and later export the FBX from Blender again, importing it in Charater Creator 4 - Create Charcater, I'm missing the textures, the Character just white.
This is the case with all CC4 Charaterbase avatars.
I downloaded it out again, but the same result. (White.)
I hope there will be a tutorial on this soon, Kai's tutorial skips a lot.
Greetings Robert

Where do you put these files, or do you just import them into CC4

@Autodidact:

The EULA says we can't sell characters made with these bases in "3rd party marketplaces" - so does that mean we CAN sell them in the Reallusion marketplace?

That is my understanding.
it is likely alot easier to correctly  create CC4 characters from these new bases as they seem to be built to a uniform standard for  import and editing in the various external apps before sending back to CC4.

There is no value if you already own CC3/CC4 as those character bases (except cartoon bases in CC3) shipped with it.
So it's like a demo for potential RL customers.
