Is it possible to make a biped in 3ds max, animate it and export the .xaf to imvu? (i've seen a mocap tutorial using bipeds and imvu but i dont know if the bone hierarchy will be the same, i don't want any conflicts) Animating 3ds max bipeds seems easier (running, walking upstairs etc)


Thanks.
( i could test this but if somebody knows the answer right away it would be great )

Imvu provides an avatar already rigged with Biped. How nice! Check out this thread:

ouch... easier or more intuitive? Laughing

anyway, dont you think making custom "generic" rig is way more fun? Rolling Eyes

PS
not just making it, animating it "by hand"

as far as the mocap thingie goes, motionbuilder seems to be the tool. ...thats if you happen to be deep into the adesks pipeline i guess Embarassed
