Creating Morphing Slider for Default Character (New for v1.4)

  1. Prepare a target character in OBJ or iAvatar format.
  2. Launch iClone Character Creator. A female character is loaded by default.
  3. Retrieve the default appearance of the character.

    Note:

    To retrieve the default appearance of the character:

    1. Open the Modify panel.
    2. Switch to the Morphs tab.
    3. Select the Currently Used item in the tree view.
    4. Click the Reset button at the bottom of the panel.
  4. Go to Create menu >> Morph Slider item to open the Morph Slider Editor.
  5. Set the path and a name for the slider.

    In this case, Body >> Custom_Body_Style >> Alien.

    Note:

    Please refer to the point 1 in the User Interface Introduction for Morph Slider Editor section for more information.

  6. Set the Min. Morph Value to 0 and the Max. Morph Value to 100 so that when the custom slider is set to maximum, the character retains its original look.
  7. Optionally load an image for the slider if you want it to have a thumbnail by clicking the button and load the prepared image.
  8. In the Source Morph radio button group, choose either the Default Morph or the Current Morph one because, currently, they are totally the same.
  9. In the Target Morph radio button group, choose the File one and load the character prepared in step 1 by clicking the button.
  10. Click the OK button and you can see your custom morphing slider is now added into designated node and path.
  11. Drag the slider and you will see the default character is gradually transformed to the target character.

    Value = 50

    Value = 100

    Note:

    Please note the clothes of the target morphing character will not be loaded and involved with the morphing behavior because they are different objects.

  12. You can still use the default sliders to further adjust the new character.
