Could you also look into the XP64 bit issue, this wil not allow access to the Camera Controls on the sticks?

Would it be possible for you to list your software versions and the steps you're taking so that we can attempt to recreate the issue here in house?

Hi Mike,

Im using motionbuilder 2012 (64bit)
on a windows 7 pro 64bit machine, all the latest updates.

Arena 1.7.2000 and the new insight VCS plugin 2.4.1 Final.

Cameras are v100r2 cams, in 12 cam setup.

I can record full body and facial stuff.

All the best

today I un-installed everything (arena related).
rebooted and reinstalled,

I can now record in motionbuilder with the VCS plugin!!

Can confirm a fully functional VCS motionbuilder plugin at my end WOOT WOOT!

Think I did notice a c++ runtime install window that didn't install before.

Thanks
Burroni

Phew - thats good news! We've been scratching our heads over this one.

Let us know if you have any other clues as to what may have caused it.

Hi,

We have the OptiTrack 12 Camera Foundation package mounted on a truss. Is the VCS compatible with this setup?

Regards,

Yep, the VCS will shine in a 12 camera system--though you'll need to be a little conservative if you want to track body and camera at the same time, in the volume. Be sure to purchase the VCS plugin in addition to the hardware, in order to access the virtual camera capability in MoBu/Maya.

Awesome...thanks Seth for confirming that.
Yeah our setup is great, but the actual capture volume is quite small so I know what you mean.

Would it be possible to get some more information as to your system setup to help track this down?
