Hello,

this is not spam, I’m sorry if this was posted to the wrong forum. As it is related to animation assets, I thought it could be posted here.

Sorry for the confusion and please let me know where I could post this news as I think a lot of people could be interested to have a place to preview motion capture clips and download a lot for free for their unity projects.

Kind regards
Animstreet

This section is called “Assets AND Assetstore”.

There is no need to have the “Assets” you promote to be in the “Assetstore” !

@animstreet: This is the right place to showcase your products. Thanks for that, usefull stuff.

@ Phex: Thanks a lot for the clarification

Having worked in the industry a few years I’m pretty sure you’re not the first online site to offer motion capture for a price. I accept you need some flair in your wording, but not if it’s blatantly incorrect.

Hi,

animstreet is a market place where anybody can share/sell his own motion capture clips. Also, with more than 5300 motion capture clips (1000’s are FREE), we believe we are the first market place online. However, if you do believe that our statements are incorrect, please let us know and we will adjust them as soon as possible.

Thanks all for your feedback.

Still, the more the merrier!

Mixamo isn’t mocap, is it ?

I thought they were procedurals.

@runonthespot, zomby138: as fas as I know, Mixamo is using mocap to provide animation services. Animstreet is more a market place for motion capture clips.

I remember reading about motion cap in a 3D world mag, so i started to look for it and found it: 3D world mag nr135 takes up about Mocap and they talk about www.animeeple.com, where you can buy motion caption for your 3D models and so on.

When reading thier “about us” page on thier website i found this: Okan Arikan started Animeeple with Leslie Ikemoto in 2008

Hm so dont know about being first…

but hey i dont want to put down your company, it still sounds good with motion caption store :smile:
