sure would love to get some more .c3d exspression capture files to test out now that I have got it working in Max via motion builder. Any chance of that happening?

It is something we can look at doing, in the future, but it isn't currently anything that we have prerecorded.

so you guys only have one exspression .c3d file on hand for customers of your product to test out. I would think you guys would have hundereds of them around from your own testing.

Never done a lot of exporting via .c3d - and I am not aware of any captures with your specific movements.

no issues with your data more with how motionbuilder works with face capture data and the whole having to make default pose stuff is a little clunky in my opinion.
