AI Render for iClone & CC with ComfyUI Integration, Available in Open Beta

Seamless 3D & AI Integration

The foundation of AI Render is built on Reallusion’s custom node for ComfyUI, enabling a seamless two-way connection between your AI workflow and Reallusion’s 3D tools. It transfers full 3D scene data—character poses, lighting, camera angles—from iClone and Character Creator, with no technical setup. Fully embedded in iClone and CC’s intuitive UI, it allows visual, interactive work while generating AI content with precision and control.

22 Built-In Style Presets

AI Render includes 22 professionally tuned presets across three categories: Realistic, 3D stylized, and 2D illustration. Each preset comes with optimized ControlNet settings, prompt templates, and rendering configurations for fast, consistent results.

Prompt + Reference-Based Customization

Users can guide AI results using traditional text prompts or reference images. The plugin supports IP Adapter, which allows AI to match the style and tone of any uploaded image without the need for complex prompt engineering.

Precise 3D ControlNet Guidance

Unlike AI tools that rely on 2D estimations, AI Render uses 3D-driven ControlNet inputs for stable, accurate generation across frames:

  • Depth: Spatial layering and facial accuracy
  • Pose: Reliable skeletal tracking, even with occlusion
  • Normal: Surface lighting and shading
  • Edge (Canny): Clean outlines for stylized renders

All inputs are generated directly from real-time 3D environments built in iClone and Character Creator, using Reallusion’s library of over 13,000 easily searchable, drag-and-drop assets, including characters, motions, lighting, and cameras. This makes it fast and intuitive to build structured scenes that provide AI with the consistent, frame-by-frame guidance it needs.

LoRA Dataset Creation for Character Consistency

To maintain consistent character appearances across AI videos, LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) training is supported. AI Render does not perform training directly but enables rapid dataset creation in iClone using batch rendering, pose libraries, and automated camera paths. Reallusion will provide project templates to assist in generating LoRA training sets for unique characters.

AI-Powered Storytelling for Character IP

AI Render is ideal for creators developing original IP characters. With Character Creator and iClone, users can design fully rigged, production-ready characters. It enables AI-generated movies, commercials, and storytelling, maintaining consistency in look and style. This isn’t just visuals; characters can now appear in AI content with real actor-like continuity and expressiveness.

Community Challenge: Win Character Creator 5

To celebrate the launch, Reallusion is hosting a public AI Makeover Challenge from July 28 to August 29, 2025. Participants can transform their Character Creator 4 (CC4) characters using AI Render and submit images or videos for a chance to win a free copy of Character Creator 5 (CC5). Check out the official discussion thread for more details.
