Comment on Maya to Motionbuilder 2012 HumanIK Reference Joint Bug by John

Hi, Yes work around was to characterise in Mobu and not in Maya ( reference joint works fine that way ) or don’t use the built-in Reference joint and just create a custom global move parent. I’m not sure if they fixed this in the new service packs as I havent had to plaly with Mobu for a while.

Interesting. Thanks for posting this. What was the final verdict? Did you find a work-around? Or did a hotfix/servicePack get the issue resolved?

Thx

Comment on important notes regarding FBIK rig in maya by John

Hi Orlando, I gave up on FBIK and switched to HIK ( which is similar to FBIK but much better in terms of transfer / edit / hand-key animation from mocap. )

FBIK is no longer supported from maya 2011 on, my best advice is if your pipeline allows it, switch to HIK. HIK works beautifully with animation layers and has seamless IK to FK switching.

gluck!

I am trying to use FBIK (2011) from mocap (mixamo) and adjust with animation layers but having tons of issues getting this to work. Will try above but wondering if you are using animation layers and how you work with it.

Thanks yes, mudbox is a great program to use, in my opinion it is more user friendly than zbrush. But Zbrush has many more tools. Good luck!
