==================
iClone & Character Creator 3 Facial + Viseme + Body iMotionPlus Hacked!!! to Unreal Engine
Ultimate solution between Character Creator 3.4 and Unreal Engine 4 and 5.

Hey guys! You can use iClone to apply body motion, facial expression animation, and mouth talking viseme animation for your CC3.4, you can save it as iMotionPlus in iClone, to use it in iClone, but you are unable to export the whole iMotionPlus as FBX directly from CC3 avatar to Unreal Engine. If you directly transfer the CC3 avatar directly from iClone to UE4 by using unreal livelink, then you are unable to get all the facial expression and body motion work dedicately by exporting as FBX file. Good news! I just HACKED everything for you!!!

By the end of this tutorial, you should be able to
1. Hack CC3.4 avatar to Unreal Engine, with full CC3.4 skeleton, full CC3.4 facial expression morph, and full CC3.4 mouth talking profile which are able to work independently in Unreal Engine without iClone 7 and Character Creator 3.4.
2. Hack iClone 7 iMotionPlus files completely to be able to utilized in Unreal Engine for your CC3.4 Avatar in Unreal Engine 4.
3. Use iClone 7 mouth talking viseme system to generate any of talking animation, combine it together with facial expression and body motion in iClone 7, use iClone 7 as animation pipeline, to create your own iMotionPlus files, and hack again to make it available for Unreal Engine 4, as a dedicated and independent FBX file!!!
4. Completely freedom to generate any of animation in iClone 7 (facial+mouth+body) and make it as a template for any CC3 avatar in Unreal Engine!
5. apply any iMotion/rlMotion/iMotionPlus files for your 3D avatar in Unreal Engine 4 and 5 game project!

Final outcome and result in Unreal Engine:
CC3 FBX mesh file with facial morph, viseme, and original skeleton.
FBX file which contain the animation of facial morph, viseme and body motion.

FBX(mesh) + FBX(facial+mouth+body animation iMotionPlus) = SUCCESSFULLY HACKED!
