CharacterCreator4 texture path setting is incorrect
I think the texture path settings in CharacterCreator 4 are strange.

First, I applied Neutral_F, which comes standard, to the stage.
At this point, a dialog called Missing File (s) is displayed, and the texture is displayed as Missing in D: \ Reallusion \ 00Content \ Template \ Character Creator 3 Template \ Texture \ Skin Textures \ Skin Base \ RL_CC3_Plus \ Std_ ~~~~. Will be done.
Here, Missing is two types of maps, WS Normal and Position of Resource Map.
In my case, the Character Creator 3 Template folder is actually installed in D: \ Users \ Public \ Documents \ Reallusion \ Template \ Character Creator 3 Template, and it seems that the CC4 application itself was installed here. ..
For Reallusion Hub installations, I can only specify where to install the application, not where to install the content.
The content installation location seems to be the same as the previously installed iC7 or CC3 (in my case, D: \ Users \ Public \ Documents \ Reallusion \).
Also, even if I do the RL_CC3_Plus folder with "Auto Search" in the Missing File (s) dialog, everything is reasigned to Baby's Eyelash and it is not actually read by the character. There is no help for it, so if you specify each texture with "Browse" and save it, this dialog does not seem to be displayed. However, that is not a fundamental solution, so I hope for an immediate update.

Then I tried the Headshot plugin. In this case as well, the same Missing File (s) dialog is displayed in the process of character generation, so there is no choice but to modify and save it in the same way as above.

Then I tried to do a full make-up with SkinGen. In this case, both the HS character I created and the attached CC3 + character erased the original material and turned white, and the Missing File (s) became 100 or more, and it is already in a state of being overwhelmed.

However, when I load the CC3 + Headshot model created by the CC3 application and apply make-up, the Missing File (s) asks for the Reasign of the make-up texture, but the basic body and head materials and so on don't disappear.

In any case, Character Creator 4, especially the texture-related path specification, seems to be wrong.
I want an immediate solution.

CharacterCreator 4.0 and 4.01 and 4.02, not CharacterCreator 8.0 and 8.01 and 8.02.

I installed iClone 8.02 and CharacterCreator 4.02 today.
This problem has been resolved.
In CharacterCreator 8.0 and 8.01, I couldn't find the Makeup and SkinGen folders in SkinTexutures in the texture folder of the Reallusion Tenplates folder, but in 8.02 it seems that both folders were created.
In 8.0 and 8.01, I was going to refer to the Character Creator 3 Template folder of the previous version, so I thought it was strange.

Hi m_koshi,

Thanks for your feedback and sorry for the late reply.
Could you uninstall the content pack that you mentioned with issue, and install it again?
Cause we can't reproduce this issue, so maybe you can try to install content pack again and see if the issue still exist.
Thanks for your help!

--Addition ---

I uninstalled Character Creator 4 and the Headshot plugin, SkinGen plugin, and tried installing it again.
At this time, I renamed the Character Creator3 Template folder to Character Creator3 Template_Back at the time of uninstalling, and tried to verify whether a new Character Creator3 Template folder was created.
As a result, the Character Creator3 Template folder was not newly created. This means that this Character Creator 3 Template folder was created by installing Character Creator 3, and Character Creator 4 will not install its own support content.
I searched various folders and found that preset files such as makeup are installed in the Reallusion Templates folder, but textures are not installed here, they are installed in Character Creator3 Template and they are loaded. It seems that there is.
However, as reported in the first post, it seems that the path specification from CC4 is incorrect, forcing the user to specify it again in the Missing File (s) dialog.
I tried various things to see if this path specification was described in the ini file or config file, but I couldn't find it after all.
