Create a Style Clone

Upload your own Mocap data to create a custom Style Clone for use in Motion Stage and Motion Factory.

In this guide, we'll demonstrate how to:

  1. Create a Style Clone container

  2. Upload mocap data to your Style Clone container

  3. Review uploaded mocap data and root motion extraction

  4. Send a Style Clone generation request to Motorica

Prerequisites

  • A Motorica account, created when you first open the Motorica app.

  • An enterprise license. For more information, contact our Sales team.

  • Existing mocap animation data. View our Reference docs for more information and instructions

Get Started

  1. Open Style Cloning within your Motorica dashboard to begin.

  2. Click the Add style clone dataset button.

Data Guidelines

The "Guidelines for style clone animation data" document will pop up when you try to add a new Style Clone Dataset. Ensure you read this document thoroughly before uploading any data.

Once you've read through the Guidelines document, click the understanding agreement box at the bottom of the page and click the purple Continue button. You'll be prompted to name your Style Clone and the hip bone height attached to the clone's model.

Upload files

Only upload relevant .fbx and .bvh files that you'd like used for training the Style Clone.

Motorica will automatically extract and generate root motion data based on the uploaded animations.

See the Data Preparation reference document for more information on proper data for training.

Review Uploaded Files

Remove any files that cause errors and fix the occurring errors in your chosen animation software. Then, review the rest of your files to ensure the root motion data extraction is accurate.

If you need to edit an animation's root motion data, you can do so within the Style clone dataset dashboard. View the Edit an Animation's Root Motion Data guide for more instruction.

Send a Style Clone Generation Request

  1. Go back to the Style Cloning dashboard

  2. Select your newly created Style Clone

  3. Click the Fine-tune model button.

  4. Assign a name and version number to your Fine-tune model and click the agreement box.

  5. Click the purple Send request button to finish.

View Fine-tune Model Status

Click the Fine-tune models pop up button to view information on Style Clone generation requests.

Models typically take from 3 - 5 days to complete training.
