Hi Rob, thanks! I haven´t touched the Softimage Animate menue much, especially in the last three years...
Completely missed Motor and the Actions library at my disposal. Just shows it´s always good to ask. Those actions, what rig do they use? I guess it´s that rig layout I´d like to add more Mocap data on in Motionbuilder? Cheers, tim On 11.09.2012 11:44, Rob Chapman wrote:
Oh Motionbiulder ive not touched, but Ive seen plenty of demos of 'slapping' on mocap data with just default Softimage that its odd you don't know, but here you go , if you are not aware of this already then its easy to show. 1.

Do you guys have a good link to freeware Mocap sources? What rig layout do you guys use to be most flexible? Is there something like a "default Motionbuilder rig" I should look into and if so, is it that what you´d suggest to base things on? I´d like to end up with one rig (male/female) I can test human motion data on and for building a library of "slap-on motion". Any specific tips or hints to a better approach? Cheers, tim
