Hello,
Thank you for reading my post. I am using the full version of Character Creator 3 Pipeline version 3.04. I am fairly certain that when I purchased this software that I read that clothing can be imported as OBJ files. And I could have sworn that I seen that at one point. However, I no longer see that as an option. If I try to import anything that I made, it says it has to be .Fbx and I need an Fbx Key. When I chose the create clothing option, it says in parenthesis "with Fbx Key." Fine, ok, no big deal to convert my obj file to Fbx. However, what I cannot figure out for the life of me is where do I get the Fbx key. I have tried exporting just about everything I can think of from the software and nothing spits out an Fbx key.
I am making clothing in zbrush and need to get it back into CC3 to try on the character. I have not used the software very much, all I have done in the past is used it to spit out a nude character model that I have been using for practice. If someone can help me get that Fbx Key, that would be super appreciated.

Thank you!

Import obj as an accessory, and then change by adding cloth weights to clothing.
