This all new workflow brings 1-click SALSA setup to Autodesk Character Generator Characters, and introduces new default shape groups that produce great looking results. We leveraged new features in 1.3.3 to create our new CM_AutodeskSync script, along with a custom inspector, that provides a unique shape group capability that creates a great default setup, while also extending full shape group customization.

PLEASE NOTE: These instructions require you to download and install the appropriate 1-Click asset scripts in your Unity project. If you skip this step, you will not find the option for 1-Click in the menu.

Documentation for SALSA LipSync Suite v2 -- located here.

03/07/2018 - v2.6.0 Fixed a bug that was automatically resetting [CM_AutodeskSync.cs] BlendShape map values on start. Added an LOD switch script called [CM_AutodeskLOD.cs] that is added during the 1-click setup. It automatically finds all the available LOD's on start, and provides a public function [SetLOD(int lodLevel)]. To use the LOD script, include the [CrazyMinnow.SALSA.Autodesk] namespace in your script, create a reference to your CM_AutodeskLOD script, and call CM_AutodeskLOD.SetLOD(int lodLevel). LOD levels are: 0=crowd, 1=low, 2=mid, 3=high. See the example script in: Examples/Scripts/LODTester.cs

• Setup a prefab of your fully configured character at design time, then instantiate the prefab.
• Use the code below:

	using UnityEngine;
	using CrazyMinnow.SALSA;
	using CrazyMinnow.SALSA.Autodesk;

	public class AutodeskRuntime : MonoBehaviour
	{
		public GameObject autodeskCharacter;
		public AudioClip audioClip;

		private GameObject character;
		private Salsa3D salsa;

		void Start()
		{
			character = Instantiate(autodeskCharacter, Vector3.zero, Quaternion.identity) as GameObject;
			if (character)
			{
				character.AddComponent<CM_AutodeskSetup>();
				salsa = character.GetComponent<Salsa3D>();
