Hi there,

new to this forum, so please excuse me if someone else asked about those tools.

We want build a Virtual Movie Making Studio ala 'Pendulum Studios' with iClone and i was wondering whether there are plug-in's/add-ons or any development in that regard.

For example:

- Driving the virtual camera in iClone with an external physical camera rig like VCS system from Insight (seen on http://www.optitrack.com/products/insight-vcs/) plus the ability to drive real-time mocap with any optical based system.
- Are there any commercially available packages to faithfully simulate real world physics based camera/cranes/jib and dollies in iClone with pre-defined film-back sizes, etc. especially important to simulate accurate camera movements and techviz. (Note: can be potentially build of course with the constraint tools, models could be build and rigged in other 3d packages of course)
- Are there plug-in's/add-on to live link to Motionbuilder and/or Crytek's Cinebox/Sandbox?
- What about importing/exporting cam data from PFTrack or export to Moco rigs?
- Burn in of real-time cam data, distance to object, cam height, focal length, etc.

Any hint, help would be much appreciated !!
Thanks,
Mark

Nope to all... Been asked for and requested many times, but nope..

Thanks for the fast reply, a pity though, it has the potential to be a professional previz system, Frameforge at least have real world cam settings, wouldn't be too complicated, but as i have learned there is no SDK or Python back-end too, so no luck on that end too...

I wouldn't mind to pay an extra on those things.
Thanks,
Mark
