Most skin-rigged characters can be subdivision rendered in their native environment, but almost none of subdivided characters can be exported in FBX/USD and rendered in other applications especially with facial morphs. To make CC a universal character solution, Reallusion made this Subdivision Export possible for all quad-based rigged-characters.
CC characters are designed to fulfill real-time workflow, the total polycount of a CC character base is only 20K, the head is less than 7K, and Subdivision Export keeps CC models nimble for live performance while detailed enough for final production.
Keep jagged silhouettes from breaking realism and low-poly faces from being noticeable on close-up.
The boosted resolution also helps to smooth out shading along the surface.
The Subdivision Export is not only designed for CC characters, it’s possible for any imported low-res character in quad topology to benefit from this feature. Start achieving high-res subdivision renders in other rendering environments.
The Subdivision Export supports skin-rigged, animated characters made from CC Base, imported Humanoid, or auto-rigged characters from a static mesh. It greatly elevates all types of realtime characters for professional high-res rendering, simply via FBX/USD format or Live Link.
