Can you make tutorials on how to make animated characters to pit in MSFS 2024 as pilot, co-pilot, and passengers using their SDK? They use glb/gltf. I have tried but think there could be a tri-count or bone limit. I did get an animated CC3+ character to load into the sim as scenery, but just nit in the plane. PLEASE look into it- would be a great help to flight sim content creators to use you tools.
Hi @santhoshmg2319, Any mesh-based animation can be transferred to Blender. Since muzzle flashes and smoke are iClone particle effects, you will need to recreate the effects in Blender.
Hi @Why_not_huh, You can export any hair from Character Creator as an FBX file accompanied by an FBXkey file. Then, you can edit the hair mesh with a 3rd party application and bring that mesh back onto a CC character.

Seeing how to make the bag move is great! Thank you!
Thank you, Kai. Very useful tutorial.
Great Video! let me try it, thank you so much for sharing
Nice!!!
Would it be possible to do something like the strings on a guitar in someone's hands? 🎸
Hi @AstraVex,
Yes, iClone supports animated accessories. Just animate your guitar strings and pair it with a plucking motion.

Should have at least included the muzzleflash effect in the project file for those who do not have the pack.
