When
The iclone 7 release
And when 
i get the PBR and cc 1.5
By jarretttowe - 10 Years Ago
I think the consensus is that PBR is coming this year. I would think CC 1.5 is by the fall. Who knows when 7 will come out...I think we might be in for a feature rich 6.5.
By mtakerkart - 10 Years Ago
In an another threads and in the facebook page , People from RL said that PBR is for the end of this year and the CC 1.5 for june or July.
They said too there will be an Update for Iclone very soon to integrate the 360 VR export.

Wow cool features:)

Actually, I noitced the Feedback Tracker ( http://www.reallusion.com/FeedBackTracker/ ) has already been set up for:

IClone 6.5
3Dxchange 6.42 (very disappointed there isn't 6.5 in there - WE NEED TO EXPORT SOFTCLOTH ANIMATION - EVEN IF IT'S BAKED IN AND NOT APEX/PHYSX CONVERTED)
Character Creator 1.5
CrazyTalk 8.03
PopVideo 3.01
CrazyTalk Animator 2.15

I'm most interested in 3Dxchange improvements and inclusions, like adding in more Characterization profiles - although I've built a bunch myself anyway - and above all, softcloth outside of iClone.

i have reached a level of understanding that I am at peace with.
If iclone never issued another update,  I'm happy where it's at now. No more wishful features for me.  Expectation is the mother of disillusion. I want to make movies now, and only I can make them better by increasing my skills and resourcefulness. Hanging on the fringes for an update is not healthy for creativity,  nor is it a gauge that i care to hang my goals of becoming a better content developer on, no hype-train-nailbiting for me thanks :p

:unsure: I never understand why people yearn for an iClone 7 release, while it's far more cost-effective for us to have a series of feature-rich 6.x releases. As old-timers will recall, we did very well with the 5.x cycle...:P

I love iClone6 - I just want to be able to get softcloth effects to export out to engines like Unreal...or at the very least, allow it to be exported as APEX clothing and put on the character in Unreal.

So far, it's the only thing on my wishlist.  That and a marketplace with some high quality wings complete with animations.  Still, I guess I have to do SOME work :D

I remember that, too.

Many of us were very surprised (but thrilled) that 5.5 was a free update rather than a for-purchase 6.0 major release.

I agree... Reallusion can keep the 6.x updates coming as long as they wish.

:)  Thanks, but sorry, it's already been revealed to be coming in 6.5 - but everyone is being VERY quiet on a possible 6.5 release window.  That's why its frustrating. Some of us have to carefully lay out our time/tasks/plans well in advance, and without knowing I'm coming up to a deadline where I have to count it out for the now.

Some of us have to carefully lay out our time/tasks/plans well in advance.  It's one of the reasons I love Unreal as an engine - their multi-part preview approach along with patch notes each time lets us see and test what is working and what isn't - and we get to really feed back into the system what we need and where they can focus their energies to get the product out that their clients want.  That way their Marketplace gets filled with stuff that people know is going to be useful/convenient.

Please understand that I may, very well, just now, love you...

no iC7! lol :)
I just bought a new laptop that only just handles iC6!
I've had iC6 for about 6 months now an unable to use it because my previous laptop couldn't handle it.

I don't think my new laptop could handle anything more demanding then iC6

There is no specific date unfortunately. The rough estimate is March for Early Access and around May for the full release.

As LP already mentioned, facial mocap won't be available at launch but is planned for later this year.

Unlikely, because it would mean updating iClone 6.5, which is now in maintenance mode.

If you purchased iClone 6 before the Early Release offer was introduced then you will have to pay for the upgrade to iClone 7, however there is a reduced upgrade price available.

Yes I am of the same opinion. And many software makers do the same thing. In many cases a "new release" is simply an improvement on the latest version and should bean update (Microsoft Windows for example). However if development time is costly enough I guess they have a right to redeem some of those costs. I myself don't mind supporting those companies that don't charge the full price of a new version when I get benefit. I don't however support the likes of Adobe who charge an arm and a leg for their new releases. Or have in the past as I wouldn't know since I don't but any new releases of theirs for that reason. With iClone I didn't mind the $100 upgrade. But I fully support your reasoning.

Hmm, now I have to eat my own words...:blush:

I have had the opportunity to work with IC7 for a while, and it's a worthy upgrade...
By michael7 - 9 Years Ago
dennisobrien Just to let you know Adobe doesn't charge anything for their new upgrades and hasn't for a few years now. You no longer buy adobe products you buy a membership plan. I pay $74.00 a month and it gives me access to everything they've made.
By animagic - 9 Years Ago
I believe the issue for some people is that if you stop paying Adobe you no longer have access to their products.

Unless you purchased an earlier version of their Master Suite:) which may not have all the newest bells, whistles, programs and updates!

After I save the Sketchup file (as version 2015), I can import it into 3DXchange 7 directly. Dragging and dropping works also. But it has to be Sketchup 2015 or earlier.

It doesn't import directly into 3DXchange 7, you'll have to save first. This was also the case in 3DX6. From the manual:

Google 3D Warehouse - Click to launch the Google 3D Warehouse web site to search for models.


This works the same in 3DX7; the option launches the 3DWarehouse website only.

The English version has been released, but versions in other languages (including German) usually come later. Peter (RL) will be able to tell you if he sees this post.
