Hey guys,
Does motion builder have built in walkcycles within the software. Ideally i want to create a small group of characters walking around at different speeds, perhaps stopping and looking around. To achieve this I want to avoid as much key animation as possible, unless its for more custom type moves other than a standard walk cycle.
If not this link has great mocap cycles, would this work with motionbuilder?
MB doesn’t have walk cycles the way that Character Studio has footstep animation, if that’s what you mean.
Motionbuilder does accept C3D files though, so yes those mocap files should work. It’s not all that straightforward mapping mocap onto a character though. You should read through the MB documentation and look into the advanced tutorials. There’s info in there about cleaning up markers, using them to drive an actor, and then using the actor to drive a character. That’s the stuff you need to look at.
