Applying Character Motions (New for v. 4.4)

Preview motions can be applied in Character Creator to test for mesh penetration between the skin and the clothes.

Applying Character Motion Templates

  1. Create a new project with a character (either Standard or Humanoid).
  2. There are two ways to apply pose templates:
    • In Character Creator, drag and drop *.repose templates directly from the Smart Content Manager > Animation > Motion-Plus or the Motion library.
    • In iClone, drag and drop iMotion templates directly the from the Content Manager.
    • Search for iMotion templates in your library. If you have installed iClone 5, iClone 6 or iClone 7, then the default iMotion directory path are as below:
      For Win 7, Win 8, Win 10:
      C:\Users\Public\Documents\Reallusion\Template\iClone 5 Template\iClone Template\Motion\
      C:\Users\Public\Documents\Reallusion\Template\iClone 6 Template\iClone Template\Motion\
      C:\Users\Public\Documents\Reallusion\Template\iClone 7 Template\iClone Template\Motion\
  3. Drag and drop the motion-plus or motion template onto the character in Character Creator.
    ClosedNote:
    • This pose can then be set as default for both iClone and Character Creator. For more information, see Creating Default Pose.
  4. Click the Play button to playback the motion.
