The release of iClone G3 Character
base models will unleash your creativity in producing
contents. The base models can be divided into
five parts: (1) G3 Standard base model;
(2) G3 Nude base model; (3) G3 CloneCloth base
model (coming after 2009 Q1);
(4) G3 CloneBone Character; (5) G3 Character Max
Template. In the other hand, iClone G2
Characters have 9 typical body shapes with refined
bone structures, enhanced mesh and skin texture
resolution, better motion and posing quality.
In particular, CloneCloth Characters provide dual
layers of Cloth mesh: the skin layer and the cloth
layer. Simply modify the opacity texture with
any image editor and you can design as many different
clothing styles as you can imagine.

The Procedure to Package
Your Texture
The most significant difference
between G1 and G2/G3 submission is that
the VNS files of G2/G3 base models will
not be included in your pack. Please
refer to Reallusion EULA
for more info. In other words, if you
want to sell a character as VNS file,
you need to transform the Max template
into a different shape of character
first. As to the submission type of
G2/G3 Texture, your character must be
disassembled into various kinds of textures
like upper body, lower body, shoes,
and skin. To clarify your submission
process, follow the easy steps below:
Step
1:
Step
2:
Prepare your complete work and
save it as VNS file under
the category of "Character".
This VNS file is only for
verification since this character
VNS file won't be included
in your pack.
Under "Upper body",
click "export diffuse",
"export opacity",
etc. to save your texture images.
Step
3:
Step
4:
Under "Lower body",
click "export diffuse",
"export
opacity",etc. to save your
texture images.
Under "Shoes", click
"export diffuse", "export
opacity",
etc. to save your texture images.
Step
5:
Step
6:
Under "Skin", click
"launch" to open 4 skin
textures first,
and collect the modified ones
to be saved.
Under "Accessory" or
"Hair", select "Custom"
library and
click "add" to save
your accessories, hairs, and any
other
VNS files you want to be included
in this pack.
Step
7:
Step
8:
Prepare 4 folders: (1) Character
VNS; (2) Accessory VNS;
(3) Texture; (4) Promotion and
place your saved files to
the appropriate folders. Then,
zip them in a file.
Two promotion
image files should be included
in your
"Promotion Folder".
The first one is "Preview
Image" (size: 700*410 pixels;
under 100KB, PSD & JPG), and
includes your "Pack Name"
and "Author/Company"
in your image.
Step
9:
Step
10:
The other promotion
image file is "Thumbnail"
(size:
110*140 pixels; under 6KB, PSD
& JPG), and also
includes your "Pack Name"
in your image.
