Live Link fails to transfer materials in 5.6-5.7 (Only works in 5.5.4)
The Files: iClone Character File, Live Link Transfer to Unreal 5.6-5.7 See attached images I don't think it has to do with the updates to iClone because it works transferring to UE 5.5.4 (Images with materials are all from iClone transfer to UE 5.5.4).
Issue Description: Live Link transfers to Unreal 5.6-5.7 fail to upload materials properly.
Software Versions: iClone 8.7 and iClone 8.6 The only version that works is UE5.5.4 All others fail to transfer materials properly (5.6-5.7)
For some reason when I have both 5.5.4 and 5.7 open the transfer works..... Perhaps this is an issue with the type of connection. Weird.
Hi zancoisrice,
Did the problem still occurs?
May I have your CC project as well as your UE project?
Thanks
Steven

Even after fixing the Physics asset, the character still breaks and stretches across the screen.

The Physics rig is wrong. Twist bones have collision capsules, but not the R and L Thigh. When you run the models in a game, they break upon death. I had to manually fix the physics asset. Something I didn't have to do with 5.5.4.

I found more issues. When the Livelink model is imported, it's imported with a post-processing animation blueprint that disables character animations. This has to be manually changed through the BP.
The model's physics asset is a mess and has to be manually cleaned up. Twist bones have physics colliders.
I didn't have these issues in 5.5.4
