Mum, I'm famous. Jokes aside, Looking forward to the deep dive tutorial of this epic tool! Nice job Real Illusion team, you are are in front with the tech that actually meets the requirements and doesn't just look nice, but works.
Would be cool to demo the live cam in a future webinar. Have Mark or Kai control the face over the zoom stream live to test the concept of remote actors driving the animation. Saw that outlined in the documentation on the main page. It looks promising, but I'll have to see a live demo of it before pulling the trigger.
Hey great vid, thanks… Seems like it’s more flexible and accurate than live face app, in terms of how granular you can set it up… am I right?… given that now this seems to be included in iclone and some of us purchased the plug-in for live face link with iPhone, I’d like to see a comparison of the two and see some of these setup improvements on the pipeline for the people who actually purchased it… think that’s possible? Thanks again
Would have loved to hear about new features like this before they get released after a sale in which you bought an alternative. Like I did now with a different profile. But I love that it comes with the additional updates, like denoising for the tracking.
NOTE: Will not connect if you have a encrypted VPN enabled, just disable the VPN and worked for me. Very similar to Faceware (with more facial options)
So we tried it and it looks much worse than the regular iphone "ar-kit" capture... and I guess it's possible with lots of adjustment to the settings one could make it better? -- but perhaps we're missing something in the setup? but our tests looked bad. (running a 4090rtx) -- but for now the regular "LIVE FACE" app connecting to "MOTION LIVE" add on in iclone work great.
Welcome I have installed accuFACE plugin And you connected it to the camera successfully But when I click Preview or Record the character's face and head are frozen, nothing moves Although everything was communicated well Do you have any solution to this problem? Yes, I have an RTX 3060 and installed the 3000 version I installed the latest update for the Nvidia card from the official website
In some of the captures in this video, the lips don't seem to fully close on plosive sounds (Ps and Bs). This may be a calibration issue, but it detracts from the veracity of the capture since these sounds can't be made with the mouth open. It gives the captures an "uncanny valley" feel. And in this video it seemed worse when using AccuLIPS. I preferred the capture without it. Don't get me wrong, AccuFACE generally looks great and I may well get it. I just wondered if this was a problem that's easily corrected.
Agreed. If you're going to call a program AccuLips, then it should have calibration poses for plosives and fricatives (P, B, F, T). Ideally, it should have an alphabet calibration mode, where it uses ai to analyze you saying the alphabet (zoomed in on your mouth) and then matches the lips, teeth and tongue to those micro movements.
Just yesterday I was thinking about this feature. You should consider a way to export shape keys to Blender or add a way to render from iClone to Blender Cycles directly like you did with iray. Compared to eevee, id pick the inbuilt iclone renderer as it is way faster. I just also wanna know how you render sharp videos like that with the toon bundle. It is usually low texture for mw
@@sternteacher2092 ah I see maybe, this could have been a reviewer product to reallusion or a beta product maybe, I think the one I'm taking about you add your phone as the camera
Purchased AccuFace in March 2024. Have not been successful in having it track my mouth/lip movements. I've tried everything (lighting, calibration, different cameras, etc). It is able to do so with my team members. Any suggestions?
Much better then the hacky iphone mocap method i use. Bouncing a mirror to point to the video. Just so that I can capture video to motion capture in live face. AccuFACE works better.
I wonder if Reallusion will jump into the full motion body capture business and support a multi-cam/mobile capture solution for a high accurate motion data 😏then all the missing pieces will get together to become a one powerful animation tool from Reallusion !
2:49 I am facing issue where the character face does not move at all (camera tracking works fine, Motion link connected). Recorded video does not work as well, so currently I cannot use AccuFace at all. Would greatly appreciate if someone could enlighten me please. I use RTX 3080 Laptop.
I had to restart after head froze. That worked. Reboot is magic sometime. But I see where you noted the timeline. You have to hit the space bar at that stage to activate character. I’ll be back at desk tomorrow. If you still want help, I’ll try to write down steps. I got stuck there too. But I think just clicked the space bar on my keyboard once there.
Thanks for your reply & suggestion! Unfortunately I have hit the space bar and the scrub bar run as it should be. The only thing not moving is character's face. Reboot / reinstall does not work as well :(
@@surachamp9394 I’ll get to desk in the next few hours, and will send you the notes I have. It may be repeating what you already know… but I’ll try to share what I can. I’m new to it, today will be day three. I did get one moving and recorded, but just the face so far. I haven’t plugged in body and hand capture yet.
@@surachamp9394 Ok so when I launched today, character wouldn’t move either. One thing I had active was “enable global illumination”. When I clicked it, to deactivate it, and went back to hit space bar- it started mirroring me. “Enable global illumination”, can be found on the top bar, just to the right of “high-medium”. It’s just one button to the left of “viewport GI”. Again, when I turned it off, and went back through the basic steps, and clicked the space bar it worked. Make sure camera is on and not covered too. I had to unplug and replug-reboot camera too. Good luck. Don’t give up. You’re almost there. Sorry I’m not super technical, hope it helps you. Please let me know what happens.
I can’t believe we have to pay for things that should be how the general software should already work. Yet again this should be an upgrade to the basic functionality of the software. Not yet another paid add on
@@gryphonsegg Right. I understand this is in response to Metahuman animator and I am okay paying for it. But the pricing is outrageous. The IC8 costs $600 and this is just a plugin and costs $500
Contacted support they have a comparision chart for all three capture styles, well worth checking it out. it's called " Which facial mocap plugin should I choose?" on their knowelegdge base. THANK YOU Mike!
I hope there will be a good tutorial. Because the doll gets strange facial features. Because in the video everything runs smoothly and flawlessly. An explanation to get the settings as good as possible would be very nice!!!
I ordered it already...hope it is worth it. Well, now I don't have to use my iphone, which is the only thing I use it for. Also. loving the video capture option.
I’m a there a way to mocap the tongue? I haven’t been able to get it to move. It lays flat between the bottom teeth and doesn’t move at all. I’m only day two, but still haven’t found any info about the tongue. I was hoping it would mirror while mocap recording. Can someone please share how they work with tongue, using accuface? Thank you.
Hi @P4TTT, Yes, you can use the AccuFace facial mocap for the primary facial animations. Additionally, AccuLips is an option combined with AccuFACE for detailed lip sync animation.

okay, i am not able to get this thing to work.... i only have OSB and the demo camera on the camera tab anyone know how to fix this? I have the app on my iphone, and putting in the right IP , nothing
If you are using an iPhone or any cellphone, you need the iVcam tool to capture the video source alternatively. It's difference from Live Face which has its own app.
If you're talking about the tracking result, it will be different definitely. Live Face utilizes depth cam tracking, and AccuFACE is RGB tracking. The iPhone will work with AccuFACE as well, you need the iVcam tool to transfer the video source.

Thats great! Is this video option on AccuFace also works only for English? Because AccuLips works only for English.. for other languages its a painful process to match the visames..
I am not an english speaking native, so when I record the video, my speech is not good. What if I will add via acculips an audio by an english speaker? Can I mantain face expressions from my video and lipsync from audio and text via acculips?
5:20 When he says, "Fram By Frame", it does not look proper. Slowed to .25 speed confirms this is why it looks odd there. The top of the bottom lip should firmly touch the bottom of the top teeth. It does not do that on either word Frame and very obvious on the second word Frame. How to fix: To fix this I would have poses photos of the mouth and teeth of three different males and three different females at the beginning of each sound type. Use that as a background reference to force the animation software to start each sound at the proper start position of the lips, teeth and tongue. This way, if someone says Frame, Front, Fox, Family, Fun, Fantasy, Phillip and so on, the animation process will start with the top of the bottom lip touching the bottom of the top front teeth. It will get this animation correct 100% of the time. Then work on how long to hold that start pose to make sure it looks like they are saying the F/Ph sound. 0.5 seconds, 0.70 seconds, 0.33 seconds or 0.25 seconds, depending on if it is a child or teen or adult or large adult or giant. In natural speaking, we all learn how to properly form the start of a word, and we do this by learning the start position of each sound we use to form words. Doing this for each sound start position would fix this issue for every sound of any word. Every sound, not ever letter, as some letters and letter combinations make the same sound. NOTE: I would add a node to the two top and two bottom front teeth and three nodes to the tip of the tongue. When they are visible in the actor, then also in the animation, they are visible and in the proper position. This way you fix the timing issue for the start pose of each sound and the proper position of the teeth and tongue. This way if someone says Stop like normal and then later, they say STOP while exposing their teeth as if they are angry, the animation gets it correct. In photography, it is about the pose, i.e. body, arms, legs, feet, head, hair, ears, neck, eyebrows, eyes, mouth, teeth, cheeks and chin. In facial animation it is about the pose, i.e. Head / Face, Nose, Eyebrows, Eyes, Eyelids, Lips, Teeth, Tongue, Cheeks, Ears. This system as I am seeing it from 1 year ago from today in December 2024, does not properly have Mouth Start Pose for each Sound. We will likely still buy it as it is a phenomenal product and is continually being developed.
@@tiedtkeio I would love to see a side by side comparison. And see exactly why one method is better than the other. Especially since Live Face uses iPhone's TrueDepth Camera
I can’t believe we have to pay for things that should be how the general software should already work. Yet again this should be an upgrade to the basic functionality of the software. Not yet another paid add on
And I can’t believe that this discussion occurs every time they create new plugins. Guys, this is a company. They have to pay the devs, pay office rent, etc. Jeez. I am glad they have this price policy, because it means that they will stay in business and create more awesome stuff.
@@Aaromapixelstudio 100% agree. No one wants to spend thousand dollars like I have, and much more just to be told hey, we have a new addition to the program that yo now have to buy as well, and it isnt content, it is something that is core functionality and not an update.

Is there a way to fix the frame dropping when previewing or recording
Hi @yakuzabyakko893,
To prevent frame drops during preview or recording, make sure to enable ""Full-frame recording (Timecode)"" and set your project's timeline time mode to ""By Frame."" This will help ensure no frames are skipped during the process.
Additionally, ensure your system has sufficient computing power to handle complex scenes for a smoother preview experience.

Great update, looks great!
I have a question, is it possible to disable head rotation if the source of the face animation is a video file? Thank you.
You can decrease or zero out the strength of the head and even the tracking data.
@Reallusion or anyone who has tested this on non nvidia workstation. Can AccuFace work with AMD Radeon systems or is it Nvidia only?
NV only
How well will this work with the RTX 2080? On Reallusion's website it states that it will work with a RTX 2060, but how well will it perform on it.

In facial animation it is about the pose, i.e. Head / Face, Nose, Eyebrows, Eyes, Eyelids, Lips, Teeth, Tongue, Cheeks, Ears.
This system as I am seeing it from 1 year ago from today in December 2024, does not properly have Mouth Start Pose for each Sound.
We will likely still buy it as it is a phenomenal product and is continually being developed.
Can it be exported as fbx or alembic?
Yes, it can. You can further choose the preset of the target tool.
@@prooronkon9499 ok thanks
amazing
So this will not work if you have an Nvidia GTX card, correct? RTX only?
Does it work with AMD cards?
nope
@@prooronkon9499 😔😔
If only Cartoon Animator can get half this amount of enhancement it would be useful.
Any option for mac users?
Love it
Is this better than Live Face?
Yes, much better.
@@tiedtkeio I would love to see a side by side comparison. And see exactly why one method is better than the other. Especially since Live Face uses iPhone's TrueDepth Camera
I can’t believe we have to pay for things that should be how the general software should already work. Yet again this should be an upgrade to the basic functionality of the software. Not yet another paid add on
Given the incremental improvement, it should at least just be an update to the existing face capture plugin you already had to buy.
And I can’t believe that this discussion occurs every time they create new plugins. Guys, this is a company. They have to pay the devs, pay office rent, etc. Jeez. I am glad they have this price policy, because it means that they will stay in business and create more awesome stuff.
Its unfortunately that these plugins are not paid within the software but separately which is disadventaging customers
@@Aaromapixelstudio 100% agree. No one wants to spend thousand dollars like I have, and much more just to be told hey, we have a new addition to the program that yo now have to buy as well, and it isnt content, it is something that is core functionality and not an update.
4:13 the bald dude sounds like farting from his mouth 🤣🤣🤣
Amazing, i dont need vseefase again
Lipsync is not ready yet.
This time I am going to say no!!!!!!!!!! you already robbed me enough. Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.
Faceware and iPhone almost gone
It would be nice to have multi-camera view for dampening jitter, instead of just debounce/min/maxing the values
Welcome
I have installed accuFACE plugin
And you connected it to the camera successfully
But when I click Preview or Record the character's face and head are frozen, nothing moves
Although everything was communicated well
Do you have any solution to this problem?
Yes, I have an RTX 3060 and installed the 3000 version
I installed the latest update for the Nvidia card from the official website
Having the same issue. Do you manage to find the solution?
