In this livestream, Rokoko Sam is walkin' us through the (not so) painful process of character retargeting! Also known as, "how do I get my dang 3D character onto my gosh-darn mocap data!" We're covering Unreal Engine, Blender, Cinema 4D (an maybe Maya if there's time), so hopefully nobodies left out! Lets gooooooo!

Hi thank you so much for maya tutorial, i found a way in maya which your costume rig will match exactly with base mocap, after retargeting. Its my honor if you check it out here, ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-08ftsvRlykQ.htmlsi=bu3ZZ_OnRRxy80J1

Excellent, Excellent vid! Man, its amazing that just a few years ago, this kind of animation control was so much more convoluted and complex to do, to the point that layman artists would rather just stick with default animations and not even attempt anything more complex.. Now this is so easy, and especially thanks to vids like this and awesome folks like you and Sam to share this how-to info almost making it intuitive rather than difficult. Thank you!!!

About the Rest pose, Its just to clear the rotation, press Alt R and Press Alt G.

@cmysliwiec 3 месяца назад

Hey guys, at 46:16, when he's editing the animation in Nonlinear Animation, how is he adding a keyframe after changing the pose? I seem to be missing a step here and can't figure it out... 🤔

@GinnyGlider 3 месяца назад

If I had to guess he has assigned a shortcut, so the menu doesn't have to pop up everytime the 'i' key is pressed. Sam did mentioned he's using an industry-standard keyboard layout so maybe that could be it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Another approach is auto-keying (wasn't enabled during the stream) enabling this then makes it easy to NOT focus on inserting keys manually. A couple of downsides to auto-keying are 1) it adds a key on all transforms (L/R/S) leading to two main issues: Unnecessary extra key clutter, and it affects the interpolation of the keys. 2) It's easy to lose track and forget that auto-keying is active. I would say use auto keying one way on the timeline (e.g., for rough character animation) followed by a cleanup, (delete and adjust key interpolation) of unnecessary keys, after that disable auto-keying and from there manually edit/add keys. Hope that helps :)

Idk if anyones brought this up yet with unreal, but that it stops at like 118 frames and wont let you extend to 120? idk if its an issue with any body else

@lucidparalysis2794 3 месяца назад

Can you check the link for the animation layers addon? I just spend 20 bucks for a tutorial..

@voiceofreason9780 3 месяца назад

Thanks for helping us out with this. The workspace is blurry and hard to read, even though your faces are crystal clear. Makes it a little hard for a beginner who doesn't know where everything is automatically.

@pwnisher 3 месяца назад

Good to know! I'll definitely see if this is something we can upgrade next time.

@user-vm3kp5uy7z 2 месяца назад

this video is great, only one thing is not clear to me, that is, when it edits the FK on Unreal.I did (on metahuman) "additive" but when I move does not do me anything and remains as before, that is clipping.Any suggestions?

How i replace the character in blender ? Does it need Rokoko plugin?

@icyfoi 2 месяца назад

I'm following along step by step in Blender but when I build the bone list, it always shows up empty. Any ideas what could be the issue?

@cd_core 3 месяца назад

so for us poors who still use R19 - is there an alternative to a character definition tag in C4D?

@sahilshrivastav4390 3 месяца назад

For a character can we download it from a online or we have to model it from the start plzz tell I am stuck cause i dont have my own characer now

@pottsay 2 месяца назад

To match the pivot point on your new character, drag it under the Mannequinn character and zero out it's transformations and rotations. Then drag it out of that parenting into the world again, good to go!

@Zivcg 3 месяца назад

Was wondering the same thing. If you want my advice - Just Animate the character 1 frame backwards (to 0 or -1) and Do "animation / assume skin pose". This will give you the actual animated bones in a T pose frame. Then put your character on that T pose and add skin. Worked for me.
