![]() Which means I spent almost $500 on Character Creator alone. But, yeah: cough up an extra $150 first, mate. I would like those extra body morphs and the realistic Skingen, though. I intend to do custom texturing in Armor Paint, and clothing in an external tool. With the pipeline extension it is possible to export the characters and textures to any 3d software. They are REALLY good at promoting their tools through those indie projects, though forget to mention those indies paid Reallusion at least $2000 to get there. Their site keeps opening links in new windows which is also typical for their selling approach. I like the software, but I very much hate the company for their business practices. And if your project requires younger characters? $$$ BAM! Throw more money at it! Not saying it might not be worth it, but that pricing doesn't even include a decent library of clothing - which Reallusion sells separately on their market place. So to get "the ULTIMATE DIGITAL HUMAN CREATION BUNDLE" will cost ya a healthy $449 smackaroos. Point in case: iClone animators have to pay extra to get their hands on a graph editor! That is just plain crazy. ![]() Their selling strategy is bundling up modules and selling those at always-reduced prices (like those carpet dealers). ![]() Want aged bodies for your characters? $$$ POW! But you will also require skingen! $$$ kAPOW! Need some makeup textures? $$$ KABLOOIE! Just be prepared to drop a wad of $ bills into an ever-expanding and confusing list of modules, assets, and extensions. It just works, and the LOD controls work great. Exporting the character to Blender was faultless. I created a Bowie-lookalike Goblin King character within 30 minutes of first opening the software, which would have taken me at least a few days to get right by hand. I paid around $300, and now they want an extra $149, or so, for features which I feel should be part of the software.ĭon't misunderstand me: I think it works really well. While I like the software (Headshot is a hoot!), I very much dislike how Reallusion milks their users. ![]() The project that I am working on requires a lot of different characters, and I just do not have the time, nor the want or motiviation, to manually create them. I am still on the fence about the skingen. I got a license of Character Creator 3 Pipeline (instaLOD included) and Headshot last month.
