Followed this guide https://manual.reallusion.com/3DXchange_7/ENU/Default.htm#3DXchange_7/Pipeline_7.0/04_Modify_Page/Character_Section/Custom_Bone_Mapping_Method.htm

Have more than the 15 bones mapped but still no green, what am I doing wrong?

You may have mapped the wrong bones. Can you post a screenshot showing the character and the mapping you have done.
By Catpickle! - 3 Years Ago
Sorry Peter for the late response.

I have recreated my steps - see the screenshot there, you can see all bones, including the spine and neck bones are selected.

You clearly did not select the hand bones...
By Catpickle! - 3 Years Ago
How do you determine that from that image?
All the bones in each hand were selected, what more selection do I do?
By Catpickle! - 3 Years Ago
Ok retried (not realizing there was a set of bones at the start of the hand)

Now I get this despite getting the coveted green lighthttps://forum.reallusion.com/uploads/images/8215de79-552a-402b-80db-26bd.png

The issue I believe is centred on this area - according to the tree on the left, the small yellow marked area is the hip, not the larger bone beneath.

Hm, hard to say from distance, but something is mapped wrong.

If you can't get it working, provide the model I can have a look at it. (though I'm not an expert)
By Catpickle! - 3 Years Ago
I can email it or attach it to a PM?
By toystorylab - 3 Years Ago
Still not working??
Link to file stored in G-Drive/Dropbox/Wetransfer via PM probably easiest way.
By Catpickle! - 3 Years Ago
PM'd
By toystorylab - 3 Years Ago
Works, though surely can be optimized.
Basic motions work...

There still is something wrong...

One tiny bone is not following root...
I have no time to work longer on this, maybe experts will chime in here...
So maybe provide link to the fbx straight in this thread, someone might help.

What did you do different?

I mapped the bones from toe to hip up the spine to the neck then across to the fingers. From your screenshot it looked like you didnt map all the individual fingers, hard to tell.

Ill try it again and thanks buddy
By toystorylab - 3 Years Ago
I did not map fingers... As FBX export did not work as expected, I sent iAvatar via PM...
You can send iAvatar from iClone to 3DXChange.
Remember I am not an expert.
