iClone is a machine eater and I have had problems since iClone 5, especially with render times. I have found that as long as I have about 125 GB free on my C drive (it's a 256 SSD so constantly having to clean it of unwanted stuff) it works reasonably well, though again the rendering time has led me into caffeine addiction*. I have argued elsewhere on this forum that RL really needs to redesign IC from the ground up, as its updates and extras, fantastic as there are, seem to be sitting on an aging engine. Proof would be things like that now clothes seem to rip and tear much more easily; the basics that used to work OK are now falling apart. Nearly all the working content of iClone is in a folder called 'template', no problem it could be called 'Henry', but that particular name bothers me, it's as if the original iClone never had faith it would grow into quite a beast, so never bothered with a logically named file system.

And that maybe the problem @eylonedri is having - iClone has a confusing 'road' system that could do with some reroutes, and faster lanes!
*another thing that may have helped was I turned on GeForce Experience. I have no idea what it is or what it does but since it being on iClone seems faster (though not in the rendering)

I couldn't agree more, the team here seem to ignore the real reason their software run slow.. I kept telling them I'm running nothing other than iClone7 and that everything I could do I already have dond that, it's not the customer side's fault, it's their own software's fault. Maya runs perfect, Rokoko runs perfect, but something about iClone (and the entire Reallusion products line) is just completely and utterly broken. I feel sad that I paid for plugins that dont work at all such as the Curve Editor, but it is what it is I guess..
