Two more tests. The first one...alien interface is a pre-viz for a client. The second is a private project. I'm not running into any problems so far but I still haven't used the full suit yet. Be interesting to see about crossing a room and interacting with an object. It wasn't that long ago that it wouldn't possible to do both of these clips in a few hours over a couple of days. A very efficient pipeline so far.

Fantastic!  How long did it take you to initially set up the hardware and software of MoCap? Once installed is animating as simple as putting on some gloves or is there a lot of cleanup of motion to do afterward? Once again, thanks for all your helpful and informative tuts and videos, Warlord.

Excellent demo Warlord and I really like the look of that Mage clip. Some good acting skills there too! Something that people tend to overlook when they are looking at MOCAP gear - you need to be able to throw yourself into the act.

Wish I could afford it...

Initial setup was quick and easy. Installation is straightforward. They make it sound harder than it is. For regular usage after you get it going it takes about 5 to 10 minutes for me to put the neurons in the suit so it can take longer to get the suit going than the actual mocap itself. Its much simpler than Kinect was to get installed and I like this type of motion capture better than camera type captures because it doesn't seem to transfer your physique or body type to the MoCap. That way you don't have a 5-year-old girl with brutish shoulders. Very little to almost no clean up which blows Kinect out of the water for me. I have to adjust the thumbs at the beginning as they have a problem and delete the parts you don't want like the beginning and ending where I start and stop the session but that's about it except for visual tweaks that are personal preference. Thanks for watching.

So far I've used the one arm and half body set up. A person can do quite a bit without the full suit as lower leg motion can be added easily in iClone with masking in the Motion Puppet.

Thanks everyone for watching.

Thanks for posting, Warlord! I'm considering PN and clips that portray normal gestures and motions are very helpful.

That's really cool warlord!  BigGrin
I'll be saving my penny's for the Neuron setup, I wasn't so impressed with the results people were getting with the Kinetic setup even though it is cheaper, so are the results IMO.
