reversed axis during mocap...fixable?

<t>I did my first successful mocap last weekend with the 8 camera system!<br/> <br/> Now, upon opening a take with MotionBuilder, I realize I reversed the axis during the capture. I set the L-frame rotated 180 degrees (horizontal)!<br/> <br/> In other words, my biped is facing the wrong way, when it...

<t>Hello all,<br/> <br/> I just got my Optitrack via USPS! Now it's time to upgrade the laptop!<br/> <br/> Can anyone shed some light on requirements for the 8-camera system? <br/> <br/> I know it is best to use a computer with a dual core processor -- would a Intel pentium 4 CPU at 3.06 ghz do the ...

anyone created a good truss system?

<r>I have been thinking about the best way to set up a homespun truss system.<br/> <br/> Ideally, it would be portable, stable but also pretty light. And set up so that adding additional cameras / moving them would be simple.<br/> <br/> (The recommended systems on the site look great..but I'm assumi...

I want to get an ...

Re: Optitrack at GDC 08

I made it over to the GDC yesterday. Here are a few pics of the Optitrack setup. The guy we talked to was really cool and looked like he was having a good time showing people the equipment!

Optitrack at GDC 08

<r>My girlfriend was at the GDC (Game Development Conference) earlier today. She took a quick snapshot on her phone, of the Optitrack that was set up there.<br/> <br/> I tell you, if they had been selling them on the spot I think I would have had to call her back with the credit card number. <br/> <...
