Epic update! It's always the little improvements like the realtime color picker, nesting the face expression sliders vertically, allowing the user to punch in their own values on face key, and rotate align tool that I appreciate most.

Hi Eric, could you please talk it over with the team and reenable physics for characters? and have it so that if physics is enabled on a character that the full beard/cloth tracking is enabled by default on the character cloth?
I understand it probably wouldn't get the update before iClone 8 but I'm hoping as a CCD member and Elite customer that I can work with Reallusion and have beta access to iClone 8 to help get character physics established as well as helping out with enabling displacement maps in SkinGen (I've produced characters without seam tear issues)
This is my work within iClone
Up until a couple days ago since 2019 I only had 14 votes on the feedback tracker, as of today shy of 1 vote it has doubled.
I'd like to get it setup ready with particle physics in iClone 8 and function with interaction closer to this:
I've done detailed analysis and research to get this happening at my own expense and I probably shouldn't because I don't have a strong income at the moment and wish I was getting paid for R & D.
This should really be setup in iClone not 3DXChange.
