Animation files from Maya to SL?

[alecat Breda]

I've been looking for plugins or scripts to export animations in .bvh format from Maya (2014).   Existing plugins seem to support up till v. 2012.  

Is there anyone who successfully animates in Maya for SL? 

 

Response I'm hearing "out there" is that .bvh is hardly supported anymore in the game industry and that is why nobody is bothered to update their plugins.

is working around it by sending to Motionbuilder and then exporting in .bvh the only logical option left?

I am also working in maya and would like to know how to successfully get motion files out of maya

Since support is so poor for not-Blender anyways, I think your only option for Maya or Max is to move the animation through Motionbuilder. I haven't tried this yet but I can't imagine it's any worse than creating any other game assets.

My only hope is that whatever not-SL2 is, it will have better and mor eup to date creation support.
