Can we swap avatar/player animations and use custom skeletons in Zimension 3D?

Hey guys,

I just have a quick question. Are the avatar/player animations changeable? For example, can I swap out the default Mixamo animations for something like custom animations?

Also, does Zimension use a proprietary skeleton?

Thanks!

Yes! There are a few steps you need to follow

  1. Make sure you have all the basic animations in your character Walk, Run, Idle, jump, Attack, Die etc., (you can easily add these animation tracks from blender using NLA tracks)

  2. Once you have all these actions/animations in the file and its Showing in Animation play back block in Zimension then the File is ready and we can move to next step.

  3. You should see the Character Setup button in animation section of Item settings, Click it.

  4. Now Map you own Animation with Zimension defaults (Atleast all the required ones)

  5. Click save and all character related option will open.

  6. Now you model is a registered as Character and You should be able to select it.

  7. Now open Avatar settings and change character, In My characters you should see your file as Character, Select it.
