  Imported FBX mocap character weirdly distorted

  Posted by Tim Drage on December 15, 2016 at 9:34 am

  Hi, I don’t really use C4d much and am trying to import some FBX files I’ve been given so I can get them into AE with Cineware. There’s a couple of different motion captured characters created in Motionbuilder. One imports fine but the other comes into C4D with a distorted mesh. The movement does work tho.

  Screenshot to show the problem, correct version in FBX Review is on the left:

  

  Both look absolutely fine in Autodesk FBX Review. Our mocap guy says they were exported from Motionbuilder using the same settings etc, he’s tried sending me a few versions eg exported for an older FBX version but I get the same problem. We’ve tried it in C4d R16 and R18

  A 3D person I asked said “it definitely looks like a double transformation issue on the vertices as you would get if you are doing a blend shape over and over again on the same shape” but that doesn’t seem to relate to anything attributes/tags etc I can edit in C4d once imported

  Any ideas about how I could get this working would be much appreciated, let me know any more info that would help
