I’m about to start pulling my hair out! I use Motion Director – A LOT – and would love to use the MD Props, but they’re completely useless after applying any other motion to the character!
For example, I created a project, imported some props from UE, then added a simple walk animation with MD. When I then go to use the “sit on chair” MD prop, it looks correct when first creating the motion:
But when I create the clip, the character goes back to his original location, before any animations were added.
I’ve hunted through the reference manual and every tutorial there is on YouTube, but I can’t find a solution to this and it’s frustrating the heck out of me!
Hi tacknstock,
To help us investigate the issue, could you please record your workflow and send the video to winnerhung@reallusion.com, or share a cloud drive link with us?
Also, please make sure that Align Position and Direction is selected when creating the clip.
Thanks!
I will email the video today
Hi tacknstock,
We have received your video and will review it with our team. We’ll keep you updated as soon as we have a resolution.
Thanks!
Hi tacknstock,
We’ve replicated the issue on our end and confirmed that this is a known limitation of the “Create Clip” feature. In the meantime, here are two workarounds you can try:
-
Record in a single pass: Record everything in one shot and generate the clip all at once. Watch Video Guide
-
Stitch clips using macro data: Use macro data to combine your two clips after recording. Based on your video, this seems to be the exact behavior you’re looking for. Watch Video Guide
Please let us know if you need any further assistance!
Regards
