Import the target skeleton into Shogun Post
You can import the target skeleton as an FBX or USD file, or VSR, if a setup already exists. Ideally the imported file will contain just the skeleton and skin and as little else as possible.
To import the target skeleton:
In Post, open the relevant .MCP file and ensure that the required solving skeleton is selected in the Current Subject field.
To check that no target skeleton has been imported, open the Subject Management panel.
The Retargeting column displays a red circle, indicating that no retargeting setup is present.
For more information on the Subject Management panel, watch Vicon Shogun 1.3 Post Tutorial - Subject Management on YouTube.
Do either of the following:
In the Subject Setup panel, select the Retargeting tab, select Load and then select the required target.
Drag the target skeleton file into the Shogun Post view pane.
When you are prompted, choose Skeleton.
The target skeleton is imported into the current subject hierarchy with the topmost bone of the target skeleton parented to a Retargeting node.
Note
When you import an FBX, it sometimes isn't added under the Retargeting node. In this case, manually parent the skeleton to the node (select the required nodes and on the Objects menu, click Parent).
