Hi friends i have found large collection of free motion capture files at http://mocap.cs.cmu.edu/ .Many of you already knew this site for its large collection of MOCAP database.All motion captures found there are of high quality,professionally captured human motions of a wide variety of types and they can be used for commercial purposes. But all their motion capture data are available only in asf or amc format. So you need to convert this asf or amc to bvh format using AMC to BVH Converter which will help you to import them in Poser or Blender or other BVH supporting Character animation softwares.If you think its a big process to convert thousands of file, then go to cgspeed.com which contains all files converted to BVH format from CMU ,all free for downloading.
try bvh hacker to edit…
Does anyone have any tips on optimising POSER figures for the CMU mocap files?
I tried renaming some of the bones in V4.2 which solved some of the mismatches. But the shoulders remain a problem and seem to cause the arms to fold back into the torso with many of the CMU mocap files.
