Rectifying the Twisting Legs in Full Body Mode

In the Full Body mode of motion-capturing method, the legs sometimes twist due to the knees angles being incorrectly interpreted by the depth-camera when you perform certain motions. You may use the Knee rotation constraint feature to avoid this issue.

Rectifying the Twisting Legs in Full Body Mode

  1. Select a character.
  2. Open the Device Console panel (Shortcut: Shift + F8). Switch to the Full Body mode.
  3. Select all body parts of the dummy.
  4. Start to preview and move your body to see the captured result. You may sometimes find the character's legs will twist.
  5. Stop previewing and activate the Knee rotation constraint box to lock the knee angles from rolling.
  6. Start to preview again. The twisting legs issue should be resolved.

    ClosedNote:

    Please note that when the Knee rotation constraint in activated, your knees' rotations are filtered out, which may cause some specific leg motions to display incorrectly.
