This is a step-by-step tutorial on how to animate several characters in a single scene in Cascadeur. Starting with blocking, onto the interpolation and creating a common center of mass to use AutoPhysics with both characters at the same time. This has been a highly requested one so we hope you find it useful!

I absolutely adore Cascadeur, built from the ground up with physics in mind, exactly how animation should be, because all animation is, is one big physics problem.

I don’t think all animation fits that bubble, but yes Cascadeur is great

@@cjeff99 I can't really think of anything that wouldn't, but I might have a different idea of what constitutes using physics.

@@Caehlyn Idk, even that I'd still say is a physics problem, it's just a lot more lenient with it and tends to be exaggerated.

Thanks for everything you do! Keep it up. We need tutorials like this. Continue! I just made an animation based on the tutorial and it turned out even better than original! I didn't expect it to be that good. Very nice teacher. P.S. A built-in metahuman skeleton would be nice, by the way.

That a rigidbody controlpoint of one character cannot be constrained to follow the rigid body controlpoint of another, at this time, is certainly something that has to happen. It would prove extremly usefull. But you guys are blazing a path and is GREAT to see this develop into such a powerful tool for what the costs are. Maybe the team needs to ask developers wether they would be willing to include a "made with cascadeur " in their splashscreen? Just as support. That would be cool also.

Is there a way to set the initial frame after you move your characters into position to set them to where its a zero roation/position reference point so when I upload it and apply it to my character its not getting turned around and moved?

@containedhurricane 3 ай бұрын

Thanks for the tutorial, because a natural character fighting interaction with body mechanics is difficult to create. But is it possible to create it without a reference, since a good reference is hard to find?

I want to suggestion something regarding the UX, in 17:07 there is a 2 confirms dialogs I guess this is the 99% time of the user choice, maybe instead you could skip 2 two and show a small message bottom right with that action and an option to undo in case the user did it by mistake, as you are trying to confirm before.

Hi, I'm trying to make a Sisyphus animation in Cascadeur, basically a character pushing a rock up a hill. is it possible to utilize the physics feature in Cascadeur and make the character react to the weight of the sphere?

@Andserk 3 ай бұрын

This is amazing. I have a question though, how does one export those animations for a game engine after that? I imagine they would need to be alligned near the origin

@CausticCaterpillar 3 ай бұрын

You can actually parent the root bone to the hips of the character so then they have root motion. This will makethe root follow the hips wherever they move, allowing for root motion. Then when exporting, it won't matter how far away the character moves from the origin, you can enable root motion in the game engine. I am talking specifically Unreal Engine as they have an 'Enable Root Motion' Button within their animation editor.

@TMZStreetWorkout Ай бұрын

In my case, first character exports as should, but second one has problems. The solution that I found is to export animation of second model to fbx; open new scene with this second model; import animation from fbx; export animation with this character to fbx again (you can replace same fbx file with animation from previus step); (in this case UE4/UE5 recognize it as correct skeleton and animation).
