I am attempting to animate a dance scene using a string of BVH files, but I have a problem. I can load the first file using Makewalk, then position it by moving the Master Floor bone so my model starts and dances where I want her to dance. If I load a second BVH file it seems to be attached to the first, so if I change the start location of the second one it changes the first one too. How do I make them independent actions?
Background: I have been learning Blender over the last year, but I have never done this type of project before. I am very proud of how far I’ve come since every step has been a learning experience. I made the model using Makehuman 1.0.2 (Great program!). I used the basic.json rig and exported it using mhx2. I used Makecothes to make the model’s outfit and I built the set in Blender 2.76. I imported the model using the Makehuman mhx2 plug-in and added Mhx rig. I add BVH files by adding a track in the NLA editor, then I used Makewalk to “Load and Retarget” the BVH file. Afterward I click the arrows to complete the track and slide it to the proper timeframe. But in every case I am unable to change the start position of one without changing the other. They seem to be using the same coordinate system. I hope I am missing something simple, but I’ve searched the internet for weeks and haven’t been able to find an answer.
Thanks in advance.
