THE MOST EFFICIENT REALTIME CHARACTER PRODUCTION WORKFLOW

iClone Unreal Live Link plug-in is the key to creating outstanding character animation for Unreal developers. 

It provides the easiest and most productive way to animate your character in the Unreal Engine, including facial expressions, lip-sync animations, and body animations with accurate hand movements.

iClone motion editing tools let you separate a character’s body parts into layers; making it easier to tweak the details, while blend motion tools provide a way to smoothly transition between different animations. On top of all this, there are also utilities for mocap input and the automatic generation of voice-to-lip-sync animation. With the iClone Unreal Live Link plug-in, you can create live performances, arch-viz, game animation, cutscenes, and films with cinematic quality.

iClone Unreal Live Link is FREE for indie developers and studios. Check your eligibility

Reminder:

  1. This application is part of an add-on for iClone. If you are new to iClone, you can download the 30-day free trial version HERE.
  2. Additional purchase is required when it comes to industry standard mocap hardware support for Xsens, Perception Neuron, Faceware, iPhone, Rokoko, OptiTrack, Leap Motion, or Qualisys.

▍MAJOR RELEASE NOTES

iClone Live Link 1.62

  • Supports UE 5.4

iClone Live Link 1.6 - Watch Video

  • Assets are now directly sent into the Unreal Editor, eliminating the need for command line interactions.
  • Enhanced the asset transfer process to enable parallel processing between iClone and Unreal Engine. Regular iClone operations can proceed seamlessly while the transfer process is offloaded to Unreal Engine for import procedures.
  • New "Exclude Morph Target" options enables accelerated transfer of assets. This is particularly useful for crowd simulations where facial expressions and body morphs of highly-detailed characters are not required.
  • "Bake all animations to sequencer" can now be enabled for the "Include Motion" option under Scene Mode or motion-only transfer in Motion Mode. The transferred elements will be recreated and directly imported into the UE Sequencer. *currently not support light assets
  • If the "Camera" option is enabled when "Bake all animations to sequence" is executed, the camera and its motion will be sent to UE Sequencer.
  • When "Bake all animations to sequencer" command is executed, all adjusted Switcher Cam keys will be brought into Unreal Editor Sequencer as "Camera Cuts".

iClone Live Link 1.5

  • Look-at constraints can be driven by camera or animated objects, simulating different levels of alertness and engagement.
  • Dynamic Wrinkles add emotive details to digital human performances and enrich the expressions of stylized characters.
  • More GPU Power for Unreal Rendering.

iClone Live Link 1.4 - Watch Video

a. Data Link

  • New function for quick transfer of Unreal scene objects back into iClone. This allows for more accurate animation feedback and preview when editing the scene with Live Link.
  • Choose to export all the motion clips within a selected time frame when transferring iClone characters and objects.
  • New Transfer Motion mode automatically transfers animation for the character and objects within a UE project, instead of having to manually export and import FBX files.
  • Transferred meshes for a character/object of the same name and bone structure will automatically re-import the character/object while preserving its motion (animation asset); this is convenient for changing out the clothes, accessories, and various materials.

b. Timecode

  • Support for FPS-independent timecode transmission mode with Unreal Live Link to ensure accurate timing for animations.

*Data Link & Timecode sync only support iClone 8
