This is going to be my progress thread for improving this animation. It has been done a while ago but and the body motion still needs a few tweaks but the plan is to add photoscanned shoes, clothing simulation, pants and hoody, and do something with the hands and head, a bit of improvement to the mesh haven't figured that one out yet. Let's see how that goes.

I feel like you really nailed the little weight change wobble before the pop. awesome stuff!

Thanks a lot man, took a lot of time to get it right.

Here my first photoscan test attempt to recreate my worn skate shoe. This is after retopo and uv mapping in max with reprojected textures. Textures are straight from the photoscan so pretty rough. I'm not a fan of how the leather and the fabric turned out. I might do a high poly to bring out the stitches and the seams and bake it out.

Nice! Looks like a super pro kickflip, i suggest you add a bit of 'amatureness'

Hey, FlipNormals, good idea, I'll try to make him look more loose in the next tricks.

For now, some pants tests are in progress, Please ignore the geometry clipping for now. slapped on some quick denim material but I'm probably gonna replace it with something more funky.

So it turns out working with an outdated rig and exporting dozens of bones that were converted to a mesh is not a pleasureful pipeline to be working with, I had to take a different animation to be able to continue work with simulations, I hope I manage to finish these both.

This looks more like a stiff jacket that a hoody. Will experiment more with MD's fabric presets.

Thanks a lot man. Meenwhile some more updates.

Some experiments with VrayFur on the hoodie fabric, this is probably a bit of an overkill of detail though.
