Re: What to improve and on what to focus next?

Re: Biped, mocap, and possibly crowd(?)
I had seen that mechwarrior movie before, very nice stuff. I've made a few battle sequences in sort of the same fashion, stringing together a bunch of clips in motion mixer, then animating a root object in time with the feet. I was able to use motion flow to create this scene: (12 meg file) TrogBattleSample.mov This was…
