AccuRIG Advanced asks for CC4 Trial instead of CC5 + CC5 FBX import requires decrypt key

Character Creator Bugs & Issues - CC5
1

Hello,

I’ve found two issues related to AccuRIG Advanced and CC5:

  1. When I open AccuRIG and click on Advanced AccuRIG, the program asks me to download the CC4 Trial (screenshot attached). But if I click Learn More and go to the website, it clearly states that AccuRIG Advanced is now integrated into CC5. Since I already own CC5, I expected it to work directly inside CC5, but instead I get this outdated CC4 message. Will there be a patch or fix to connect AccuRIG Advanced with CC5?
  2. When I import a Unity FBX character directly into CC5 (not through standalone AccuRIG), the program asks for a decrypt key file. This should not happen for a standard FBX humanoid, because the same FBX works fine in AccuRIG (non-advanced). Why is CC5 requesting a key? Is this a bug or a configuration issue?

Could you please clarify if:

  • A patch is planned to link Advanced AccuRIG properly with CC5.
  • There’s a way to bypass the unexpected decryptkeyfile prompt when importing FBX humanoids into CC5.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi…

I’m not really understanding why you are trying to access AccuRig Advanced via the free standalone version. All you need to do is open CC5, load the character you want to rig, and then click on AccuRig on the Modify Panel to start the process.

For the FBXKey issue, how are you trying to import the character? Have you tried using Create > Create Character from the Menu Bar? That should work fine.

Hi Pete,

I have some chars in Unity and I want them to be in CC/iClone. Some months ago when I checked I started with that workflow. I had CC4 trial and I got 0 problems. Now with CC5 I can not.

Do you want to say that I can take a FBX from unity and accurig will initiate from CC5? I will try it tomorrow.

In any case, thanks for answering and hope you answer me one more time.

The Advanced Accurig is a tool in both CC4 and CC5.

Hi…

If your character is already rigged, then you don’t need to use Advanced AccuRig (but still can if you wish). You can try following the tutorial HERE to see if it will be automatically recognised.

If the character is unrigged, then you can just rig inside CC5 by following the video Rampa provided above.
