First of all, I dunno if this belongs here, but there’s no specific section for importing or animation/modeling.
I am trying to import an animation. The animation/rigging was made using Maya tool called Advanced Skeleton 4. The skeleton as well as the mesh have been imported without problems. Upon importing the animation I receive a “Imported bone transform is different from original. Please check Output Log to see detail of error”. Inspecting in persona shows the animation stuck in the frame it was in when it was exported. It is also rotated 90 degrees.
Thank you in advance
(I am more a programmer than an artist, still learning these tools)
Alright update: There are two problems here. Because Advanced Skeleton 4 only works in a Y-Up configuration, I had to rotate the entire scene 90 degrees so the person would be standing up. Undo-ing this got rid of the error message I was receiving. I suppose I can import the skeleton and then rotate 90 degrees in editor instead. However I still have the problem with only getting one frame of the animation.
So people who might have this “Imported bone transform is different from original. Please check Output Log to see detail of error”, make sure your root is zeroed out (I guess).
I’m going to mark this as a solution, and ask another question that pertains only to my other problem.
