Blender 2.5 Tutorial Connecting a Skin to a Motion Capture Armature Part 1

[Tommyknocker45]

At 3:28 you checked to see if changing the rig in edit did not alter the rig in Pose mode. In your video it did not change the rig in Pose mode. What should we do if changing the rig in Edit mode DOES change the rig in Pose mode?

@Tommyknocker45 When you change the size and position of the bones it will cause some problems with the armature bones positions not matching the motion capture data. Utilities like bvhacker offer some tools for modifying mocap data.

@petenicezz Search for stuff on the Microsoft Xbox Kinect SDK (software development kit), I am hoping to do some tutorials on this in the future (when I have worked out how to do it!).
