Activity Forums Maxon Cinema 4D Reset Bind Pose not working in my project

    I have since worked out the missing step in my figure project, was to export the figure to Mixamo, and after setting a walk animation there, putting the figure back in c4d, where the reset bind-pose now worked.

    This does not explain why it worked in a simple project but not with a more complex figure project in c4d – before the application of Mixamo – but at least I can now achieve my figure animation objectives.

    Thank you for sharing your solution with us! I don’t think the matter related to the project complexity, but rather to the import/export and switching from one program to another. Sometimes when you do that so some hidden changes may occur in the file structure, leaving you unable to interpret them, as happened to you.

    Kouraib, thank-you for your reply. I get that the changes made by exporting and reimporting to-from Mixamo may have been a factor, but it does not explain why one c4d project works and the other does not – before Mixamo is even involved.

    regards, simon

    You are welcome, Simon! Ah, I guess I didn’t understand the issue very well. So the problem happened before exporting to any other destination, and the project was created in Cinema and you didn’t import a file from another format for the project as a whole or at least for one of its parts?

    That’s correct. All work done directly in C4d.

    Thanks for the clarification! I’ll check the file again to see if I can figure something out.
