Excellent, we can finally use CC to create full characters without having to jump between a bunch of Apps just to make a Face.

Thank you Miranda and the rest of the Dev. team. CoolSmoooothSmile

Downloading now. This is what I have been waiting for. And the Hair Tool is so much needed! The old way I could make a face that sort of looked like the picture, but then I could never find the correct hair to finish it properly. This is going to be great!! Thanks Reallusion for making this happen and for the Early Bird Special pricing.

This is a fantastic plugin. And I'm having a lot of fun with it.

I would like to suggest something for future updates of the plugin.
Although sliders are easy to use, I would prefer having gizmos near the location where we are changing the face. It would be more precise and more intuitive. I am thinking something like Allrightrig for Unreal.
See an example here:

Guys i have installed Character creator 3.02 version and also the headshot plugin trial version
when i open the CC3 software i cannot see the Headshot interface as i can see here in the video.


What happened ? should update the CC3 to 3.2 version in order it work?
By theschemer - 5 Years Ago
Yes. Always use the latest version and make sure you download the resource packs too. There were some issues in the original ones so they fixed them although there wasn't much of an announcement to reinstall them.

The Headshot plugin requires version 3.2. If you are using version 3.02 then you need to update. 

Apart from Headshot there have been lot's of great new additions to Character Creator since 3.02 so you are missing out if you use an outdated version.

Thank you for your advices.

Do you see Headshot under Main Menu > Plugins?

No, only " Character Creator and  Iclone autosetup".

Headshot missing for me too after the latest update!
So I deleted it using the Hub, then downloaded it using the Hub but it will not instal using the Hub, so I deleted it again using the Hub and downloaded it from my account and re-instaled it where it asks for my licence key so all seemed good but it still does not show up in CC?
Has anyone found a solution to this or the steps needed for a clean instal which is probably what is needed?

Hi Neal

Do make sure that Character Creator 3 is closed down when installing the Headshot plugin. If you had CC3 open during install please try to install the plugin again with CC3 closed.

If you then continue to have this problem please contact Technical Support. Thanks.
