    It's really amazing how Reallusion makes it look like you will spend $300 for iClone/Character Creator. By the time you get done
    with 3DXChange, Motion Live, the Facial Profile, the Rokoko Profile, Smartsuit Pro II, iPhone, and everything else you need, you'll
    be lucky to get away with under $7,000. And that doesn't even include a high end computer. And you will soon find that you'll need
    two Rokoko suits to facilitate character interaction, which is very tricky with one.

    Why wouldn’t the hands mess up when touching the head? You’re expecting real-time physics w/mocap right out of the box. Not a fan of the upselling on their part but I think you were a bit harsh. These products are for professionals and you’re treating it like a toy. This feels like someone new to 3D upset that they can’t just materialize their imagination immediately.

    • @Moons_mooniverse
      @Moons_mooniverse  3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Hey Keith, I’m so sorry for you!! Yes, I know this feeling. Over time I learned that great Mocap suits cost much more than the Rokoko and still need to be cleaned up.
      But I have one tip for you. Get the app metal detector and check your whole recording space including floor, walls and ceiling. It should be max around 40-50 but should not vary more than 2-4 in your shooting area. If you have more fluctuation, try to find another shooting area. For me the only solution is going outside into a park since my whole apartment seems to be full of metal parts. It’s mainly build in my floor. It’s not so convenient to go outside, but it helped a lot

    @KO28JOJO 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Thanks for your honest review! It seems that Rokoko has an issue with locomotion. However, Mocap clean up is another task that you have to take no matter which suit you are using. body parts intersection cant be recognized in any 3d package. iclone never ending addons is a joke! It might sound easy workflow for beginners at the beginning, but it wont take you long to realize that all the addons that they are charging you for are actually "FREE" in most of the other 3d packages! In fact, you can get away using Daz for base mesh character and re-rig it in another package, again for "FREE". Sorry for going on and on about iclone. But I wasted some money that I should not waste!

    Finally a realistic video. Not everything is "perfect" like with every other video youtube that I've seen. Everyone has been like "this is magic! **speaking with whisper: With some cleanup**.
    Not a single video showing actual cleanup and a screwed up mocap. The only cleanup I saw was someone with a slight leaning hip (laugh). The "turn off everything in your home" and "clear out all metal devices" is completely unrealistic. Not to mention no other device requires this. That seems to be a suite-only issue.

    Had my Rokoko suit now for over a year and its awesome! People have to do their homework, YES you will need to do some clean up work, but it gets you 85% of the way there, and YES you will have to have a good understanding of the software you are using. Some people think it will just work like magic out of the box, there is work needed to be done but the Rokoko suit can save you hours and even days of work. I can mo cap a scene in around 30 mins then a couple hours clean up work which would have taken a couple of weeks or more animating by hand. Would i recommend the Rokoko smart suit pro, 100% YES!

    Lesson to retain from this experience is :" Never buy a product that is marketed massively with ads everywhere" generally a company that makes a quality product doesn't need to market it because its quality will speak itself. Best example is cars, do you see ads everywhere about Porsche, Rolls Royce, Bentley ..etc ? No, of course because everyone knows that whatever car of theirs you will buy will be a dope.

You can work on a AAA Games Studio or a VFX Industry it will be the same. Animators will retarget and clean the Mocap based on the reference and on the animation principals.

Of course, doing that real-time requires quite a lot processing power to combine multiple camera feeds with the suit measurements.

    Get Blender and learn modelling/rigging -> free

    But yeah, welcome to reality. There is a reason why mocap in CGI of movies is a job for a whole team in big productions, even with optical systems. And honetly I am thankful that not every average Joe can create art to the highest degree. Where would that leave real experts of the industry that have worked for decades and mastered all its quirks?
    My tip: Get Blender for free, create a python script for the mocap cleanup (at least jittering can be solved by simply averaging movements) and try embedding this in your workflow. Might save you some time.

    4000? damn... I paid half that and my experience is pretty good, but then again, I don't use it for streaming live, I use it for motion data and also I'm an animator so Rokoko was perfect for me.

    • @Moons_mooniverse
      @Moons_mooniverse  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The suit was 2500 + 1500 for the gloves + 600 for face = 4600. Plus they told me I should try the virtual production add on (+ vive tracker) and another wifi I router (+ 1500) = 6100 that I spend. I can imagine if you are an animator that it works great for you. Now that I have a year experience my results are getting better as well. But it’s still hard for me to find a clean area to record.

    No offense to anyone who has Rokoko but Rokoko is trash. You can get an xSens Awinda Starter Kit for the same price as a Rokoko suit. Then you would have to pay around 200-250 dollars per month for the xSens software depending on which software you are renting. The Rokoko advertisements are bullshit and this video basically sums it up.

    does it taakes as long to set up and clean up? would you animate faster mixing mixamo mocap animations than cleaning up the entire animation from rococo . .im new in this so im not sure .im planning to do 5 minutes long videos .. so not sure if whats faster to produce mocap cleaning animate with mixamo or just getting the vive motion sensors and just clean up the animation .

      They also don't tell you that to stream AT ALL you need to pay them Adobe $ - that's right, $29.99 per month or you're capturing little 10 minute segments to later import somewhere else. Retargeting is awful.

  • @CoreGamingProject

    Use Steam VR trackers, and valve Index Controler for the hand. And you can Live Link all the thing in Unreal Engine With a IPhone for the facial animation.. So you also dont need all the Iclone things out of cost anymore... Better, Sheaper and top of that, so much Faster.

      I had an original Smartsuit, and it didn't work well. I then got a Smartsuit II, and it doesn't improve anything in this regard. As far as I can tell, the only real improvements are on super extreme movements, but it still drifts just as badly over time.

    Usually a Mocap Suit is used for Motion Capture. I’m selling mine cause this suit is not good at mocap, it belongs to the trashcan and i will switch to percepiton or xsens. Rokoko can’t be used for precise mocap. All Customer that purchased Smartsuit Pro One were basically betatesters and they even paid big Money for it! They should at least take the crapsuit back and give you a discount on a new one. Shame! Not to mention they don’t Even Update the studio software. Monterey is out since july 2021 and the studio is not yet Updated.
    This is not a serious company. Stay away.

    Motion capture is principally used for animation in entertainment - games movies etc. This inherently requires retargeting and cleaning up of the capture data by animators. A lot of work needs to be done to turn raw mocap data into finalized performance. How could someone spend $4k on a mocap suit without knowing this?

    The cc3 pipeline is ridiculous. And if CC3 wasn't the best god damned character making program there's ever been... the licensing around realillusion products would be enough to scare me out of using it. There are things I don't like about it. Like, the way the built-in DRM is always breaking, or the way the thing crashes all the time, because their developers don't know how to check a float for overflow in C++. But it's the best program of its type by a mile, so I tolerate these things
    I'm into cc3 and iclone for about $2,000 and I still haven't gotten the mocap bundle. But I have invented entirely new ways to use ai for generating human models, which is fucking kick ass cool.
    Iclone, at least by itself, which is the way I have it, is mostly useless. This whole business of sneaking props and set pieces in through cc3 is untenable. Half the program is just missing. And I'm not paying for 3d-exchange, because all you get with 3d-exchange is stuff that should've been in Iclone and cc3 to begin with. They are getting rid of it in the next generation, which is the big reason why I put the money in for iclone. When iclone 8 and cc4 come out, I am going to be all over it. Just gotta bide my time and wait until July/august.
    The way I'm handling my animation right now, is gathering information with vseeface, and just pushing it into a unity app to do the character and the environment.
    Also, some positive results messing around with Kinect and 3tene Pro, but the tool isn't geared towards the kind of animation I want to do, and I hit a wall with it. Great for silly dance videos though. I'm trying some new software tomorrow that'll translate live face and hand data into fbx files. I don't remember what it's called. But, if preliminary testing is successful, it might be enough to move my production to entirely to Blender, which would simplify most everything I want to do. We'll see, I'm skeptical of apps with webcam based hand tracking. They're usually junk, but anything is possible
    Thanks for the advice on the Rokoko suit. I'm not quite ready to take the dive yet, but I'm close
