  While there are a few steps you have to pay attention to to make the process work, they are explained well enough even someone as inattentive as me can't mess them up indefinitely. The add-on itself works beautifully - I personally find it even more relaxing than working in IC directly. The author is super quick answering in detailed explanations - there is basically no reason NOT to use this add-on if your workflow includes Blender and Reallusion. Absolute recommendation!

  Very easy to use (just need to be sure to closely follow directions), and it makes adding and tweaking your imported CC/IC characters very easy. The widgets the addon creates to control the various expressions are brilliant and make it really easy to customize your expression workspace so that the ones you're using for a given scene are convenient to find no matter your scene composition. Must have for CC/IC users!

  THIS IS A MUST HAVE IF YOU USE ICLONE!! Let me explain:

  I love iClone and Character Creator, and while we have the CC Tools for Blender to import our characters, it is such a HASSLE to tweak and animate expressions with your shape keys in Blender. It's also a hassle having to go back and forth between Blender and iClone to get the expressions you want. Even so, it's just not the same as in Blender, where you can see your character already placed in your scene with the lighting you want.

  Well, this addon solves exactly that, and it is truly AMAZING!

  You basically get the face puppet tool that you love in iClone, and can now use it INSIDE of Blender. Simply follow the instructions in the documentation, drag a file in iClone and export your model, import it into Blender and use the N-Panel to set it up. It works EXTREMELY well! Very easy to animate your expressions with this AND you'll get to see instantly what it will look like in your scene.

  You can mix and match different expressions, with icons that clearly represent which area of the face they affect. You just hit record and play and you see the results in real time. Another cool thing you can do is select several icons and animate their expressions at the same time if you wanted.

  With that said, on my first use, I had missed something in the instructions that caused it not to work. I reached out to the developer for help that provided excellent support! He showed me how to fix the issue in my blend file, but it could have easily been avoided if I had more closely followed the directions and the screen shots. I'd suggest reading the FAQ as well.

  Overall, this is a must have addon for anyone working with Blender and iClone and I highly recommend it!
