I'm sorry Labrats, I just saw the message, I didn't notice it even though I wrote a message under it.

You may have misunderstood me. I didn't say anything different from what Peter said.
Motion Live Plugin will not work for iC8 because it is already included in the program.
So your plugin will not work separately.
You can use the one already integrated in iC8 instead.
That's what I said.

Which upgrade gimmick? Have I missed something? :ermm:

I'm totally confused now.

I own IC 7. How much will an upgrade to iC 8 cost me?

If you didn't partake in any of the various purchase options that were available at the end of last year then it has been hinted here on the Forum that there will be upgrade offers available either just before, or at, release time.

At present the prices published as an answer to Free Upgrade Offer FAQ Nr. 5 on this page indicate that iClone 7 to 8 will cost $499.00 (plus VAT), CC3 to CC4 $249.00 (plus VAT) or both together for $599.00 (plus VAT).

Time will tell. :Whistling:

Ouch!!!

That's me out.

In my view, considering so much content must be purchased to get the software to a place where you can use it (yes essential c.c pack I am looking at you), plus the various plugins, it's just all way too much for a casual user like me.

Do you know if they've *finally* put in a camera pivot capability (rotate on x, y, or z access without changing the x, y, z transform)?  

Other 3D software has had this since their first versions and as of IC 7.x it still isn't there.  :O

Thank You

Wil IC8 be compatible with the iTree. file?

In general, newer iClone versions are compatible with content from earlier versions so that would include .iTrees.

I'm still hoping for an updated tree format but nothing on that yet.

Will the PhysX toolbox still be usable in Iclone8? 

The Physics Toolbox was originally released for iClone 5 and used the Bullet Physics engine (not PhysX). In iClone 7 the Physics Toolbox only works in a special runtime version with the full editing capabilities not available. So in iClone 8 you will likely to still be able to use it for runtime purposes, but unfortunately but this has yet to be confirmed as it will require further testing to see if there are any outstanding issues.
