No root motion means no compatibility.Īll software is updated to the most recent patch.Iclone Live Mocap With Perception Neuron Neurons Motion Capture

Further, the export license and ability to export for 'Unreal' strongly suggests compatibility with UE4. For example, the ability to 'align > root'.

This seems to be a bug with the FBX export in both iClone and 3DXchange, because the functionality in iClone strongly suggests root animation. I find that the root motion has been removed. I've tested to see if it is my animations by importing an animation which I know to have root motion to 3DXchange and exporting it for UE4. If it were able to export root motion I would consider batch converting all of my existing animations and using the 3DXchange skeleton, but at the moment there is no benefit to that. This also does not include root motion and, in addition, does not match the UE4 standard skeleton. I have also tried exporting using 3DXchange. If there was root motion in the animation file then the root bone would be directly under the hips and a red line would trace the avatar's path. They match the skeleton, but exclude the root bone animation track. The problem is with exporting animations from iClone. I can then use existing animations which have root motion - this is great! I have been successful in importing characters as when you export from iClone 7 there is an option to match the UE4 skeleton and this includes the root bone. Specifically, I am using CC2 to create characters, Perception Neuron Solo to record animations, and 3DXchange to convert existing animations to the iClone standard. I am trying to use iClone to bring characters and animations in to Unreal Engine.
