giannis Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Hi all I have some mocap data in bvh format. I have already imported a sample bvh file into Animation master (version 2005), but when I try to export it I get 1 frame as an output with "Shortcut to ground" as a root of the hierarchy. All I am trying to do is to examine the format that Animation Master exports bvh files. Any ideas what is wrong? Export from animation master HIERARCHY ROOT Shortcut_to_Ground { OFFSET 0 0 0 CHANNELS 0 End Site { OFFSET 0 0 984.252 } } MOTION Frames: 1 Frame Time: 0.0333333 Imported BVh looks like this HIERARCHY ROOT Shortcut_to_reporter { OFFSET 0 0 0 CHANNELS 0 End Site { OFFSET 0 0 1.83728 } JOINT LocalRotateZ { OFFSET 0.091811 -23.1691 -0.13122 CHANNELS 3 Yrotation Xrotation Zrotation End Site { OFFSET 0 0 1.9685 } Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuchur Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Any help??????

giannis Posted October 1, 2008 Author Share Posted October 1, 2008 I find it strange that animation master can import bvh so easily but can not export it correctly. I can achieve the same thing with other packages like MotionBuilder very easily, it is just I need the joint hierarchy the the Animation master creates for my applications.

Luuk Steitner Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Have you tried exporting to BVH from an action? From your BVH file it seems like you exported from the chor (not sure how you did this, I don't see this option in the chor in V15), It might work correctly from an action. I recently did some tests exporting to BVH from A:M and that didn't work like it should but I think that was because I wasn't exporting a normal skeleton.

giannis Posted October 1, 2008 Author Share Posted October 1, 2008 Yes and I still get the same result. This is what I do Right click on the action -> Plug-ins -> Export -> BVH Any ideas what is wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giannis Posted October 1, 2008 Author Share Posted October 1, 2008 Is there perhaps someone from the company that can help me with this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
