Thank you Peter, that's great, but too short to introduce the features. I was expecting a longer video with more feature introductions. :D iClone 8 is on its way to becoming a leader in animation.

My biggest question is with Iclone 8 will popcornfx work with omniverse? It seems like omniverse is going to be taking over as the new high quality renderer for iclone from the info?

Very cool. Thank you for the update. You guys keep raising the bar. Hopefully, CC4 update is soon to follow. Wouldn't want to start throwing words like wrinkle system around or anything. :P I'm looking forward to the release, keep up the great work!

That’s looking great. I’ve got an animated web series on the go but I’m putting it on hold until I can get access to the new features as I figure IC8 is going to let me do everything better, faster, and with less effort. Fingers crossed it imports IC7 projects without any great issues. Hopefully there’ll be a release date announced soon. Can’t wait…

We also hope that the live link plugins for UE5 will be released as soon as possible. It is not clear when the UE5 full version will be released, and games have started to be made with UE5. Even for iC7, I think the plugin is too late.

I like the Rotoscope feature in particular. MoCap is out of reach for many of us, so this is a good alternative to create more realistic animations

Peter, can I ask you something? I just watched the second preview video of cc4, but it was announced before. It was said that the features will be announced as NPR/Toon Shader and crowd people, did I not see those features or will you announce them later?

Thanks for letting me know the video is out. When I learned that iC8's video was released, 8 hours later, I was depressed :D
I watched now. Really great features. The second video of both programs was fine, but it seemed like very few features were introduced. Frankly, the first videos were more satisfying.I was thinking that more features would be introduced at shorter intervals. Does anyone know when the 3rd video will be out?

Other software lets existing users use betas, so the bugs are caught before release.
Watching you make something is like learning to fly by watching a pilot.

Data Juggler (1/27/2022) Other software lets existing users use betas, so the bugs are caught before release.
Watching you make something is like learning to fly by watching a pilot. There is beta testing for iClone and CC.
For iClone 7.0 there was a public beta, but I guess RL decided against doing that this time.

It's been a bit since ive been around. Is there a feature in the new version for dynamic object constraints. Like Moving an item from hand to hand then applying the item to the hip. Like a radio or a sword. This was very difficult for me to do with in the animator. I had to fake it in game engine with code.

No apparent ugrade/mod of the cc4 or Ic8 INTERFACE disappointing .I still find it a drawback of the software. Takes up so much desk space and the endless opening;closing and positioning of panels . In particular not having "multip[e views" on screen is a pain when positioning objects or if morphs to model a face. Its a feature in nearly all 3D software Ive seen so I wou;ld consider essential. The mini viewport in IC7 is inadequate and not available in CC3 anyway. Anyone else feel the same ? Image to illustrate what I mean in case my above not understood :)

Ooseven,
You might enjoy reading my suggestion I officially submitted. It is now approaching 6 years old... https://www.reallusion.com/FeedBackTracker/Issue/Multiple-viewports-to-aid-in-positioning-items-3-orthographic-1-free-form
I also have a suggestion regarding the mini viewport, also nearly 6 years old. https://www.reallusion.com/FeedBackTracker/Issue/Please-add-Switch-to-the-list-of-Mini-Viewport-cameras I seemed like such as easy one to do.

There will be more videos before the release. Lot's of exciting things still to be shown.

I'm very excited by all theses new features and I always wants to see more :D Are we going to be able to change the size of the character in the timeline in iClone 8 now we are able to memorize the feet position to avoid the feeling of "slipping"? We told me that was the reason we can't do that in iClone 7 so I guess it's possible now! :w00t:

This is from a CC4 WIP post:
The updated technical document will be published in the middle of February, please be patient and feel free to drop your questions or thoughts here. We'll continue introducing more features in the coming months before the official launch in Spring.

I have a question. When IClone 8 is released will we be able to load IClone 7 made projects into it to work on, and also load characters made as far back as IClone 5 into it also? I hope to get a response soon. Thanks.

You can certainly load iClone 7 projects and if past experience is an indicator earlier projects as well. Older generation characters should work too, I believe.

animasyoncugu (2/23/2022) Full announcement in February?
The reference to full announcement was for the WIP II videos.
Of course there is still much to come in terms of new videos and information but sadly there are no fixed released dates as yet.

Of course there is still much to come in terms of new videos and information but sadly there are no fixed released dates as yet. Sad indeed. I've got a WIP that I've been holding off finishing because it's self funded and I'm convinced the updated animation tools in IC8 would save me weeks of time without having to spend thousands on a mocap solution - but the companies I've got interested in investment/distribution are getting restless so the longer a release date announcement takes so I can hit them with a concrete finish date, the more I can see myself walking around in an empty house, having sold all my furniture to fund a Perception Neuron rig. The tension is killing me but c'est la vie, I guess. :)
