You tutorial was amazing , until you crected tjhe charter part where there is a "control "tab , which i cant find , i am using c4d R25 version and ther eis no charter tab. ,can you tell me what alternatve would be in r25 ?

[@NyoraiFidesTV]

Same here! Cinema 4D 2023

[@ivan_feo]

To anyone who has problems after the "animate" step. 1. If Weight Transfer does not work for you. Copy all the contents to a NEW C4D file. While you are in FBX, many functions are blocked. 2. To see the Root, Pelvis, etc. controllers: Character --> Display--> Choose Components and Character Attributes (Trigger) Below

[@eyedesyn]

Thanks for this!!

[@markchen8776]

Thanks a lot Bro!!!!!!!!!!! You save me from the problem!!

[@indigowoolfrey]

Running R23. When I click the 'Animate' tab (in 'Character'-'Object') 'Root' and its children disappear and I'm left with 'Master_con+' and 'Bind_Hierarchy' and their children. I can't follow the tutorial after this as the options are not the same and I can't find my own work around. Does anyone have any ideas?

[@moldyloaf774]

HI, thanks for tutorial but this is not working in newest cinema R25.117 , as soon as I do wight transfer the whole rig moves, fingers, arms and legs are not aligned any more, up until this point everything works. Is this a bug in R25 or something is changed and this workflow does not work any more?

Hey! I have a Problem. I cannot add my Model in the Weight Transfers.. And if i click Binding my Character changes form TPose to the normal pose and the joints are connected but wrong. I dont understand how i can fix this.. Please help me

[@JustixModder]

Bit late to the party here, but you have to copy the geometry from the FBX file into a new project. Everything within the FBX project is locked somehow. Took me 2 hours of troubleshooting to find this out

[@DarkWorlds]

Hello, thanks a lot for the tutorial, I was following it but I can't find the Control Tab you refer to in 18:00. Can u help me?

dude this is my EXACT problem im stuck

[@yolandaxing9827]

[@eyedesyn]

If you head over to the Animate Tab it'll reveal the Controls Tab!

[@JonathanWinbush]

Its called Retarget Master now

[@Mograph]

@@eyedesyn But there's nothing in the control tab. It's empty. Is this an R25 issue?

[@anetas4999]

Hi, is it possible to export an fbx file with animation date on skeleton from c4d character control rig? any help would be appreciated!

[@amritfactorrrrrrr]

I always seem to run into an issue when clicking the "transfer weights" button after dragging the model into the box, the button isn't greyed out however when I click it, nothing happens? There is a weight tag on it from mixamo, that has a well painetd weight map as well.

[@crazyAlexander23]

quick question when I export the animation file for unreal ho do I export only the skeleton and not the controls like for the booty shaking

[@LoganPinney]

Thank you for another knowledge bomb bossman! Impatiently waiting for your advanced c4d course(s)?!- happy to be a tester wink wink lol - still rave to ppl about how basecamp changed my life! Hope your well after the gigantic motion tour!

[@SketchyConnection]

Hi everyone! I've gone through the process of rigging a character in Cinema4D with Mixamo, but my character doesn't appear to have a head control and some of the joints don't align properly with the mesh... Any advice? Thanks!

[@alexanderhrafnr.673]

hello in version 2023 there is no controler tap in root do you know where it is now?

[@eyedesyn]

I really need to redo this tutorial they keep moving stuff haahah

[@lastthem8976]

@@eyedesyn Hey man, we really need this new tutorial... Save us!

[@halfcalf72]

I brought my character in to c4d from mixamo without an animation. All I need is a specific character to pose. I followed you all the way until the control tab. C4D 2023.2.2 doesn't have that but it does have a "retarget master". Nothing in my object manager has a weight tag either. Any clues?

[@eyedesyn]

I need to update this tutorial but read the comments as I believe someone offered a solution!

The Animate option has always been there for many versions!

hey, EJ. do you have a R23 updated Mixamo rigging tut? thanks.

[@eyedesyn]

Not yet

[@mrcrowpsey]

@@eyedesyn Im in R23 and I'm having an issue where after closing and reopening the scene and mesh + bones no longer follow the rig. very strange. have you encountered this issue?

[@vezikd]

Great stuff! Thank you!

[@szymonmirek6389]

IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH TRANSFERING WEIGHT. Do this: make a new project. And from the mixomax you have to copy geometry and joints into a new project.

[@eyedesyn]

Thanks for this tip!

[@Ben-rz9cf]

the other thing i will say is that you have to export it from mixamo in the original pose not the T pose otherwise it snaps back to the original pose when transferring weights and breaks the rig

[@jordanhunt1271]

Does this work in c4d lite cuz I’m having trouble it only imports obj

thats what I was wondering. I had a model of a character that was too big to upload to mixamo. I want to just download the animation and retarget all of the rig elements to a new rig based on my character.. If I find that retargeting mixamo animation tutorial I will add it here..

Now whenever i enter the software and create an object and want to make it editable by pressing the C key or perspective, the object disappear. Please give me some advice to fix the problem.

Hi EJ, The mixamo control rig works perfect, but...... when we want 2 or more animation from mixamo blended in (motion clip) >>> WITH the mixamo control Rig included. Is that also possible? Because when I add " add motion clip" the rig goes unfortunately all the way crazy :'(. You are a great C4d Sensei

It works to me, but only if I take the exact same character that I use to make the rig.
