Re: SmartBody - a character animation engine for Irrlicht

http://smartbody.ict.usc.edu/video We already have ODE (open dynamics engine) integrated, plus an intern of mine has also integrated bullet for the purposes of cloth simulation. With ODE, you can simulate rigid bodies, ragdolls, and do selective motion tracking (constrain some joints kinematically s...

Re: SmartBody - a character animation engine for Irrlicht

Your initial problem may have been related to project dependencies. I unloaded the irrlichtsmartbody project sine not everyone would want to tie SmartBody to irrlict, but doing so kills the dependencies on the other projects. So, as you figured out, you need to build SmartBody first. The lastest Sma...

Re: SmartBody - a character animation engine for Irrlicht

That's the post build script. It's looking for a file called irrlichtsmartbody.py that it wants to put in the data directory.The good news is that if you got to that point, then the code was built successfully. Make sure you are building in release and not debug mode. Do you see that .py file in the...

Re: SmartBody - a character animation engine for Irrlicht

Boost is used in SmartBody in a few different places: 1) Boost-Python binding 2) filesystem access; standardized way to handle files across multiple platforms 3) string and tokenizer handling; utility functions for fast string processing 4) smart memory pointers; reference counting, I'm trying to el...

Re: SmartBody - a character animation engine for Irrlicht

I've been using vs2010 as the development platform, the vs2008 version is a bit out of date (although I could probably get it working easily...)
I haven't tried porting to vs2012 yet ; I'll need to build the dependency libraries for vs2012 for apps like boost to make it work.
Do you have vs2010?

Re: SmartBody - a character animation engine for Irrlicht

You can use your own models in Irrlicht that are powered by SmartBody, which only needs to know the skeleton topology and bone lengths (as well as a mapping from your own bone/joints names to the SmartBody internal naming scheme). Makehuman models should work as well - I think there is a standard sk...

All, Here's a link to a Gizmodo article that talks about our fast avatar capture system using SmartBody: http://gizmodo.com/this-dead-simple-rig-puts-you-in-a-video-game-with-gear-1520325904 The output from the scanning process is a .ply model (standard 3D model format) which is then brought into Sm...
