New Mocap non-functional?

Postby anurup » Fri Nov 18, 2011 2:45 pm

Hi,

I build both Makehuman and Blender from svn. Have been having a problem with the new mocap tool in MH.

When I try using the "Old Retarget" (Load, Retarget, Simplify) it seems to be working (not perfectly, but working) and I have included an attachment of a certain frame with the bvh file. When I try New Retarget, things go haywire - again I have included a snapshot of the same Blender file with the same bvh at the same frame.

Is this a (Blender) Python API issue? Or am I missing steps required to make the "New Mocap" work properly. Have been away from Blender/ MH for a few months and have kind of lost track. Couldn't find anything substantial in the documentation either.

Would be very grateful if something could point out what's wrong. Thanks in advance. My MH version is 3072 and Blender is 2.60.4 (r41874)

The new tool is work in progress - although there has not been much progress on this front recently. Yes, the new retarget is not functional. Last time I checked, the old retarget works, at least for the mhx rig and for the FK bones.

Thanks Thomas! I was trying all kinds of different button combinations...

By the way, there is another mocap addon in Blender (from Benjy Cook which put me in a considerable amount of confusion so as to whether it was the "new mocap" that you had referred to in the MH blog! :)
