Hi, trying to set up LiveLink in motionbuilder, I add the folder successfully and get the pop up telling me to restart but the device does not show up? I am using the Educational version of Mobu, but that has never stopped me using any other plugins and we constantly use Vicon's data stream plugin plus others fine

Once the main animation was done for the character I needed to work on the hands and the eyes to help convey the emotion and to make it more realistic. Sign up for a free GitHub account to open an issue and contact its maintainers and the community, motionbuilder 2017.

A character model is a 3D model that resembles biped, quadruped, or any other type of figure, and is composed of a skeleton covered by a geometric skin or mesh. What a character looks like, its outer appearance and shape, is determined when the model is built. The geometric skin gives the model its outer appearance, and the underlying skeleton structure moves the geometric skin. The ways a character can move are not determined until you introduce it into MotionBuilder. Before importing a character model into MotionBuilder , ensure that the skeleton of your model follows certain naming conventions, that you have created the appropriate shapes or clusters, and that your model is created in a T-stance.

A new Cycle Creator tool lets you automatically generate an animation cycle from marked start and end frames of animated segment in the timeline. The animation cycle is saved as a new take. A new Spline IK constraint lets you constrain skeleton bones to a 3D curves. You can then manipulate the curve to pose the skeleton bones as well use the constraint's Twist Interpolation options. Use Spline IK constraints for animating character tails, ropes, and more. To use a Spline IK constraint, the bones must be perpendicular to the Y-axis. While manipulating the constraint, the bone length remains fixed, meaning there is no stretching in the joints or bones.

We also had Blaine rig us our hands for the character if we offered our services to him in payment. If its not there, mobu can't update its preferences, as that where it expects the application. The image below shows how each finger had its own controller but there was no overall controller for all 4 fingers. Once this is done. Now all we needed to do is get a proper rig and then tweak the animation in post. Creating a clip and trimming what I did not want. Rigs are a pain. We had to continue to animate with what we had as we were running out of time, time that was very precious. Which is what we ended up doing, with a mix of motion capture, where we could use it. Layering the pose first, and then adding additional layers to control the limbs, and torso etc.

It was tiresome task as personally, its been quite some time since I last had to animate. We need it sooner rather than later. Before we began animating the scenes by hand. As the animation will be broken. The rest was easy.. Playblast of the first cam, where he rises up. Once the Qualisys data was cleaned up to the best of my ability, it needed to be imported to Motionbuilder , an Autodesk program that is primarily used to transfer motion capture data to a rigged character, that can then be cleaned up even further and exported as an animation fbx to be used in programs such as Maya and Unity. Sorry, something went wrong. Sign me up. Daryl believes that were may just be some issues with setup of the rig itself and this will be looked into. Jump to bottom.
