Real-time iClone Pixel Shader Rendering Preview

• Now 3DX is synced with the iClone4 Pixel Shader for advanced real-time material and multi-texture display, so users can preview or prepare the content in 3DX, and enjoy the same visual result in iClone4.

• We kept the GUI similar to iClone4 and added more tools: redo, undo, iClone hotkey convention, multiple select (Q), drag and drop file import, and texture material assignment.

Re-edit Native iClone Content

• Now users can drag iClone content into 3DX4 and do further editing: Separate object relationships, build parent-child relation, reinitialize the transform value, custom rotation pivot, add additional materiel ID, or do UV assignment to individual 3D elements. Finally, export selected items back to iClone.

Quickly Turn Static 3D Models into Animation-Ready Content

All the tools you need to transform a static 3D model; such as a car, into an animated prop. This process is much more efficient in 3DX4 with the ability to:

• Multiple select, Make sub-object, Define pivot location, Export to iClone.

Bring in Animated Characters and Motion Files from FBX Files (PRO only)

• What is FBX? FBX is the Autodesk defacto 3d exchange format between Max, Maya and other 3D tools. FBX contains skin-bone rigged model information and animation data, it's a great format for storing animated character data which also being endorsed by Cinema4D, DAZ, Lightwave and SoftImage etc.

• In the past iClone characters can only be designed with 3DS Max, and exported via the iClone Plugin to Max.

• Now with FBX import, users can use Maya or any other tools supporting FBX export to design animated iClone non-human characters, eg. animals, monsters, bird, fish, any skin-boned creatures. Those character can be further key frame pose and animated in iClone via FK or IK animation.

• PRO Version users can request access to the iClone standard G3 character source template with G4 head rig in FBX format. Experienced Maya users can easily alter the character template to design custom dress, morph or rescale the bones for new iClone character creation.

This Exclusive Bonus is only available for any purchase of 3DXchange4 PRO.
