[jms]

Hello to  everyone

 

I want to transfer .bvh to .cmd file with mcbiovision command line tool but I don´t understand very well the syntax

 

mac-pro-de-jms:~ JMS$ mcbiovision -e -c -o -j /walking_2.bvh /walking_2.cmd

Unable to open /walking_2.cmd for reading

mac-pro-de-jms:~ JMS$ mcbiovision -e -c -o -j ./walking_2.cmd

Usage: 

  mcbiovision [-e -b -d] [-c] [-v] [-j object_script]

 [-o -w -f -s -i [-n -t -l chainfile]]

   infile [outfile]

 

This program converts a BioVision motion file to

a Houdini script & channel file(s).  Run the script

to create the geometry and channels.

 

 -e Parms are stuffed with expressions (chop, default).

 -b Parms are left blank.

 -d Parms are left blank and override channels created.

 

 -c Only create the channel file(s).

 

 -v Reverse joint rotation order.

 

 -o Create character using object joints.

 -s Name bones using only the end joint name, instead

of combining start and end names.

 -w Create character using object joints + wire polys.

 -j Set the object creation script (eg "opadd geo %s").

 -f Create character using Forward Kinematics (default).

 -i Create character using Inverse Kinematics:

 -n Specifies bone length channel type (FK,IK only).

   0 = none, 1 = always, 2 = auto).

 -t Dual bone chains with twist affectors (IK only).

 -l Specifies a file containing a list of bone chains (IK only).

Each line of the file must be of the form:

<IK Chain Root Joint> <IK Chain End Affector>

Any one knows how to do it, I´m pretty sure that it´s really easy and iI'm sure it's my fault.

 

greatly appreciate it

 

Thank you all in advance

Remove the slashes in front of your paths because with it, it means that you're trying to write to the root directory, which you probably don't have write permission for.
