3ds Max Animation :: Motion Capture - Hands Closed On Biped Animation

Nov 18, 2013

I have a list of motion capture, those mocap didn't track the fingers so the hands are always opened. In some of these mocap I need the biped hand to be closed. I've been looking for a solution for about a day now. I think I'm in the good way which is to create a biped layer animation where the hands are closed and link the hands of that layer to the original layer. so I would be able to save that layer and apply it to every mocap animation that need to be readjusted. The only problem is that I'm not sure if it's the better way and I don't know the procedure.

3ds Max Animation :: Biped Unwanted Rotation Between Frames

Feb 11, 2011

I need a biped to stay still in an animation for a few frames. What I'm doing is say I copy a pose from frame 10, then I want the biped to remain still until frame 40. So I paste the pose there and fix the feet keys. As a result the biped position is the same in both frames, but when I play the animation I get some unwanted rotations between these frames I can't get rid of.

3ds Max Animation :: Link Biped Head To Objects?

Mar 13, 2011

how to link a biped's head to an object? I can link it to other objects as the parent, but I need the head to be the Child.

I'm trying to animate a Terminator robot model I found here (it was a free download):

[[URL]

The model is rigged to a biped, and I'm trying to animate its head to follow the exact movements of a person's head in some footage I shot. I used PFTrack to motion-track the person's head (using geometry tracking) and exported the track as a MaxScript. So I run the script in Max and it produces a camera and head model which exactly follows the movements of the original person.

how can I link the Terminator's head (or rather, the biped controlling the Terminator's head) to the animated model? Better yet, how do you link a biped's head to Any object? I can link any object TO the head, but I cannot make the biped's head the Child. How to do this? I also tried using Select IK Object in the Motion panel, which works for other parts of the biped, but not the head.

3ds Max Animation :: Biped Rotation In Viewport Not Working

Jan 21, 2013

I'm having a strange problem using loaded .BIP file on a biped in 3D studio Max. The biped doesn't allow me to make rotation and translation changes on the head, attached bones and the feet and hands. This only occurs in the viewport!

Altering the rotation and translation keys in the biped workbench editor works fine. but obviously not very practical . I already tried to add a new layer above the current biped animation. But without successful results Also exporting the animation to a .BIP file and reassign it to the biped didn't work.

One thing I have done is using the motion flow system. After finalizing the animation I created an unified motion which is available in the flowgraph options. In order to convert the motion flow structure to real keys.

3ds Max :: Retime Tool Not Working With Biped Animation

Apr 28, 2012

New Retime tool feature in Max 2013; when i tried with biped animation, its not working, but it works with every other object. Workflow which i followed:

1.Selected all the biped parts.
2.Open curve editor. (it shows all the animation keys and curves)
3.Applied Retime All (Retime tools shows up)
4.Double clicked to create start and end marker.
5.Now, when i move any of the retime marker, the keys are not responding, only the marker moves and there is no change in animation timing too. everything stays same.

does the retime tool is not applicable for biped. I tried the same procedure with other animated objects. It works fine.

(I am not that far in my college project but am a I am worried)Does the biped attach to I ndividual pieces of the model ( hands, head...etc) and they have to be attached individually Or can the biped work with a single object ( all the pieces attached) and still be able to move individual elements like the hands or feet I am getting worried as I need to start this bit soon

3ds Max Animation :: Modifying Bone Size In A Biped?

Jan 24, 2014

I have created a model of an alien, and I wish to rig it upto a biped. The reason I would like to be rigged to a biped opposed from using bones is because I wish to apply motion capture files to the biped from iPi Mocap. 
 
However, the problem I am having at the moment is that because my model is an unorthodox shape, and does not follow the figure of a human, is how do I modify and change the sizes of each individual bone? I've tried using the scale tool on the bones to no avail, as well as searching through the options. Are there values I can change to make them bigger?
 
In the picture I have attached, you can see that the hip on the biped, is significantly higher than the model, meaning that when it comes time to skin the model, it'll think that the aliens body are part of the legs.

3ds Max Animation :: Animating Skeleton - Connecting To Offset Biped

Aug 1, 2013

I am animating a skeleton.  As a result, I'm not using physique-- I'm just connecting different mesh objects to different bones in the biped, and I'm good to go.
 
Here's my issue: I don't want my biped inside my mesh.  I want to stick it off to the side somewhere where it's not interfering with my actual mesh, and I can do my links easily by just dragging over to them.
 
Naturally, when I do this, things rotate around the biped's pivot point rather than where I want them.
 
Is there any way to offset the biped-- just for interaction, and visually?  I just want it outside of my mesh so I can animate the biped without having to look at it all merged up with my mesh.

3ds Max Animation :: Errors Saving And Loading Biped Animations?

Feb 25, 2014

I'm working on a project where I need to duplicate all animated sequences for both a male and female character. I currently have two biped rigged characters. I animate one, save the .bip animation file and then load into the other. I check the boxes for "Load max Objects" as I have some objects (like a glass of water) set as an IK pivot object. It loads those into the new scene along with the new pose, but the pose goes wrong, thought just with the arms (which are incidentally the only parts that have a seperate object as an IK pivot object.)
 
Here's a screenshot to show what I mean:
 
This incorrect animation happens whether the .bip animation file I save is loaded into the other character or loaded into the same character in it's original T-pose.

3ds Max Animation :: Hiding Parts Of Mesh While Skinning Using Biped

Dec 17, 2013

I am trying to find out if it is possible to hide parts of a mesh while I skin certain parts of a mesh using biped .  Here is what I have tried. Below my skin modifier on my stack is my edit mesh. I open up edit mesh and select the faces I would like to hide and hide them .Then I return to my skin modifier and skin parts of my mesh. but then I reliased that my biped is no longer skinned to my mesh if I hide a porition of the mesh. Even When I unhide the faces the mesh is no longer skinned to the biped. The biped moves but my mesh no longer follows. I tried deleting the skinned biped bones on the skin modifier and re adding them but it still did not do anything.
 
I know there must be a way to hide parts while you skin. By the way I am using MAX10

3ds Max Animation :: How To Get Position Parameters For Biped COM To Play Within Track View

Feb 11, 2011

Is there a way to get the position parameters for a Biped COM to play with in Track View? All I get are the rotation parameters.
If that's not possible I'd like to know a way to manipulate the animation between 2 keyframes. The TCB parameters don't seem to be working for this.

Is there a way to quickly assign all the Skin vertices with 0.0 weight to their correct biped link?

In my attachment there is about 50 vertices remaining having already corrected about 50 by hand. This is not a problem to do by hand however I have 20 more characters to modify after this any scripts/tips etc.

3ds Max :: Biped - How To Make Feet Rotate With Legs

May 14, 2013

I haven't used Biped in years... strictly CAT.

Now I'm using Biped and I'm rotating the upper leg but the feet are staying horizontal to the ground.

I can't see how this is a useful function.

How can I get the foot to act like a true child of the leg AND ROTATE WITH IT?

I really don't remember Biped acting like this in the past (although it does in 2013 -- since I just checked).

In the timeline panel in CS6 EXTENDED, you have a video feature, where you can animate three things:

What I would like to know, is: How can I animate rotation of a layer? I want to rotate my layer at an angle and animate it. But when I rotate, the first animation frame is also rotated, resulting in NO animation between the frames.

3ds Max :: Pose Character That Uses Biped Rig - Bones Not Following Suit

Aug 23, 2011

Lately I've been trying to pose a character that uses a biped rig, and things have not been going very well. For some reason, every time I try to position a bone, such as the pelvis or part of the spine, only that bone rotates or moves and nothing else in the whole skeleton follows suit with it. So I get all this weird stretching of my model as only the pelvis is rotated and nothing else, or the neck is very far down below the top of the spine. I know that it wasn't always like that; one thing is rotated and everything else goes with it. I don't recall having to link and re-link Biped bones.

I want to make an object oscillate. I know of the "param curve out-of-range types">loop but this makes the object oscillate at time=0 to infinity.

How do I make my object oscillate:

1) stationary from time=0 to x

2) then oscillate at time=x to infinity?

3ds Max :: How To Make Object Slowly Appear In Animation

Mar 21, 2011

I'm looking for a way to make an object (in my case a kind of girder) slowly appear in animation. I mean that in first frame there is nothing visible and then frame by frame object grows untill it's visible completely. I thougt I could make it by cutting the girder into parts and then "fly" them one by one into position to create the final object. But is there any way to make it smooth, like gradient from nothing to whole?

3ds Max :: Biped Clavicles Jump To Different Position Out Of Figure Mode?

Oct 27, 2011

I have a biped that I created to rig a horse. It was originally created in 3da Max 9. The problem is that through the years and different max versions it has worked fine for the most part. But sometimes when I take it out of figure mode the clavicles want to go back to the original rotation. See the attached images.

I have used the rig in 3ds max 9 3ds Max 2010 and now in 3ds Max2011.

This problem occured mainly in Max 9 and now in Max 2011. I have had it happen on other bipeds used in normal upright biped mode.

It has a run cycle animated on it and the biped behaved the whole time it was being animated.

I recently put it in figure mode to model a saddle on the horse and now it jumps when I take it out of biped. I just reinstalled Win7 and completed all wundows updates and loaded Max 2011 and put sp1, sp2 on. A week ago I was working with it with no problems. Since rebuilding the system I have this problem.
