Also, you might check the shader material for the skin to ensures the image texture is marked as srgb instead of nocolor - Jeff The Adventures of Capt Sanchez Cybernautic Studios

The bottom image is a Material Preview using the View-->Viewport Render Image. I'm using the CC Blender Tools. Skin looks fine in Eevee, but I can't figure out what's wrong with the Cycles render. I have adjusted SSS (even zeroing it out) and it doesn't seem to help. Suggestions? blender character creator 3 plus cycles eevee skin shader

I still need to figure out the face coordinates and bone mappings for the older generations.

Including checks and clean up. Normalize weights function added. Bake/Combine Bump maps into Normal maps function added to Material Parameters panel. Highlight shift added to Eevee hair shader. Relase and Installer for the CC3 Re-importer Plugin (1.0.4): CC3 Blender Tools Plugin - Release Page Object management panel with helper functions: Export Check - Identifies possible problems that could prevent successful re-import back into CC3 Clean Up Data - Cleans up missing or deleted data from Character import. Add to Character - Adds new objects to the character import and converts materials to CC3/Add-on compatible with material parameters. Automatically parents and adds armature modifier if needed. Remove from Character - Removes, hides and unparents objects from the character. Add New Materials - integrates and converts new materials in the character to CC3/Add-on compatible with material parameters. Transfer Weights - Copies weights from the Body Mesh to the selected Objects(s), works like the Transfer Skin Weights function in CC3. Normalize Weights - Recalculates the weights so that each vertex is fully weighted across all the influencing bones. Useful if you remove vertex weight groups from the object and need to recalculate the remaining weights. Demo Video: Object creation and export to CC3.

Distinguished Member Group: Forum Members Last Active: Last Month Posts: 569, Visits: 9.0K	jeff.davies (3/16/2022) @Victor Quick question for you. On the CC3 Import tool in Blender, in the settings you can specify Eevee or Cycles as the target render engine. I do most of my "rough" renderings in Eevee and only use Cycles for the final production render. If I change the setting of the render engine, do I have to re-import my CC3 characters into Blender? I think I might if the render engine affects the material generation of your plugin. Can you clarify? Thanks in advance! - Jeff You don't need to re-import the character, but you do need to rebuild the materials, with the 'Rebuild Advanced Materials' button under the build settings, which reconstructs the materials with all the current material parameters. It mostly scales down some of the subsurface settings for Cycles, as they are much more sensitive than Eevee's, and uses Cycles Anisotropy for the hair instead of the approximate Eevee highlights.
