Naming convention for MotionBuilder (very important for the riggers)

To my fellow riggers

To smoothen the transfer between Maya and MotionBuilder (MB) it is very important that you follow the MB naming convention, no matter what some tutorial may say.

An overview can be found on the mocapclub.com webpage in the "Creating a Character Template or Characterizing in Motion Builder Tutorial":

cool ....thank you but hey we have some problems getting motion builder up and running, can you help

It can be kind of a hasard, but its easier to explain over the phone, so talk to you in a sec

Seriously... I just can't get motionbuilder installed. The key generator doesn't do anything and the nfo file doesn't work.... grrrrr.....

And by the way, does the ftp work for you? Worked the first times I've tried but now it just tells me I have the wrong username or password???

Im having the same dilemma, I think I need to hire a nerd +

If you other virtualbox users have found solution please share

Ok, I've come so far that I've installed MotionBuilder 7.5 and now need to upgrade it to 2009. But when I run it I always get one of those evil windows pop-up messages saying

"The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). Click on OK to terminate the application."

Seriously windows, are u ever gonna work?

Is there anyone (Dann maybe? ) who can help me?? Did u get this error message as well?

If you read the instructions carefully it says that you are not supposed to install 7.5.... But I promised Kolla to look at it tomorrow, se if there is anything I can do.

FTP is up and working...did you go to the FTP instructions on the forum?

I simply use windows explorer and it acts like any other disc drive, copy paste etc let me know if you have further problems:)

Does it matter which left or right I use... meaning, is it MY left or the CHARACTERS left.
Just thinking if reversed would cause him to walk backwards or some?


And yes i know its peculiar question but one was just wondering

You should ALWAYS use your characters right and left, naturally, otherwise it would create confusion for everybody working with the rig
