ALIGN POINTS Step

The ALIGN POINTS step establishes visual and geometric correspondence between your imported mesh and the reference CC5 HD Neutral model. Utilizing the skeleton generated in Step 1: DETECT JOINTS, the system automatically places corresponding alignment points on both models. Alternatively, you can opt for a fully manual point-placement workflow. Once all point pairs accurately line up between both models, click Apply Alignment to compute the initial morph deformation for Step 3: REFINE MESH

Description

Ideal For

Example

Template-based Auto Alignment

Uses the skeleton from Step 1 to auto-generate corresponding point pairs across both meshes.

Standard humanoid characters with clean joint placement.

Manual Point Alignment

User manually creates and places point pairs directly on both character surfaces without generating a skeleton.

Non-standard body proportions or high-customization workflows.
