Re: Three Questions about Optitrack

<t>Tim and Koan:<br/> <br/> Yep, I pose and capture myself... set the software to capture in about 15 secs or so... set myself up and go. then walk over and stop or set the timer to whatever I believe I need.<br/> <br/> I would imagine that an oblong shape would work good, I don't see any reason why...

Re: Three Questions about Optitrack

Koan: I'm using a 6 camera system mostly with Daz/Poser figures, and the bvh files work exactly the same as any you purchase. Many times they work even better! Your workflow would be the same... create the motion in Arena/Optitrack, export to bvh and apply to your character. I use poser a lot becaus...

Re: what's everyone doing?

<t>Hey!, how's everyone?<br/> <br/> Seems like we all purchased the system for the same basic reasons... I'm starting a small mocap services company in Albuquerque, NM, and I'm working on several shorts of my own. <br/> <br/> Most of what I use it for right now though, is to make content for my Sund...
