Blade 2.6 Prop
Capture
Rigid Prop capture is the same as it was in 1.7
Use 5 markers.
- Click on the Actor Layout to configure the workspace.
- Enter an appropriate name, just as you would a normal take.
- Capture ROM by clicking start/stop (just need one frame)
- To calibrate, double click on the blue dot as you would any other capture data
- reconstruct
- select all markers by holding ALT and
dragging
- under Prop Setup - click Calibrate Prop
For example, with a pretend sword we placed
5 markers with physical ordering 2 543 1 so that 2 and 1 were
at the ends.
Attributes on the bone.
Select all constraints.
For visualization you can selected Advanced
geometry object.
If you find that your prop is not solving,
go to covariance and change the values to 1.
NOTE: Calibrate prop creates a vsk and a vss
skeleton (unlike calibration of an actor).
