Good result, KMS. Glad I could help.

Hi Eric,
I haven’t used their stuff, but you might want to give this a look: https://www.cgcharacter.com/cghuman.html -
The solution would be to “Save as project” and then copy the whole project folder over to the other computer.

You can use vertex maps to control many Clothilde parameters. Not sure I understand exactly what you’re after, but that might be a start.

I suspect that the cloner is calculating the total surface even though you’re using a selection of it.
As far as the up vector, the easiest way would be to use a target effector and move it way up in Y.

You can also use the Atom Deformer if you want to go the geometry route.

There’s really no best way to do it–just depends on what you prefer. There are two basic methods for character modeling (not including NURBS): one is point-by-point, where you build up a character by laying down points and then bridging them together to form polys; the other is box modeling, where you start with a primitive and form it into your character using knife cuts and extrusions. Even if you start out with the point-by-point method it tends to converge with the box modeling method once the basic mesh is layed out, i.e., you then begin cutting new edge loops, doing extrusions, etc.

It’s possible. You have to enable the “cel renderer” post effect in render settings and check the edges box. It’s pretty basic. If you have Sketch & Toon it offers a tremendous amount of flexibility in terms of line style, hidden lines, etc.

This is a very good tutorial: https://www.3dtotal.com/ffa/tutorials/max/joanofarc/joanmenu.asp
It’s written for 3dsMax, but it’s easily translated to Cinema’s tools.

Or, if you want to use polygons, select all of them and use the extrude command with the “caps” option checked. Or to save time, use the tube primitive.
