Hello, good afternoon!I created my character, I did the rigging, I did all the tutorials and even then the movement library doesn't work, this message appears:Motion library: lower limb body and IK behaviors must be on the same layerHow do I make library moves work on my character?

Get better lip sync with improved Adobe Sensei machine-learning technology.

I was working on my animation and tried using the swap sets tool, then Adobe suddenly crashed. Now everything I worked on is gone!! The files all read 0 kB. where does Adobe character animator Beta version save its crash files? 

I imported some mouth parts to my character in photoshop but it does not respond in character animator when I talk......here in the link to the puppet in photoshop. Am I doing anything wrong? https://assets.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc:VA6C2:badec11f-3e93-4397-9807-a0da7e527be7?view=published

Hi, we're getting a "libgit error -3" when trying to open a .chproj file. What can we do? Attaching screenshots.

Hello,I've imported a puppet (normal version of character animator to beta) and motion library isn't working for him. I've already rigged and he can walk left and right (w/ arrows). When I click on any action in the motion library he just stands still.

Toda vez que clico em Record face and voice, o programa trava, congela e só volta quando paro de gravar.

It's a mono mic, Shure SM7B running through a scarlet 212i I use a cloudlifter, but there are no options in Character Audio to remedy the issue of it only recording to one channel and playing back in the left ear. IDK what to do!

Sometimes it will not place a scene, after clicking and clicking and clicking I am currently unable to open a new project. I choose an appropriate file...and I keep getting an error message that I can't because it's already existing...it's literally the only file. I go to rename it, still comes up error.

Hey, Can someone please point me in the direction of the Motion library? I'm running the latest version of AC and from what I can see in the tutorial it should just be there under the puppet behaviors column on the right of screen ... but it's not! Any ideas?

Getting a crash that requires CA restart on Windows 10, GTX 1050 Ti, 4th gen i7 Intel, 16 mb ram. Seems to happen after a couple hours regardless of what's running.

Seems to happen every now and then even if I don't have anything else open. Drivers are up to date. Windows PC, 16 gb RAM, GTX 1050 Ti, Version 23.4 (Build 26)

The exact same chproj file opened in beta gets 10fps instead of 18fps. I see no improvement with the gpu. Instead I see a massive drop in performance.  Also, please for the love of god... stop using profiles with walk cycles. They conflict with head turner behavior and when combined. Fps drops from 20 to 12 fps.  I have been playing the balance game of turning off features to get half decent performance.  You guys really need to stop designing in a vacuum. The puppets only work well when built exactly like your samples which in my opinion is low quality product. Try pushing the softwares limits and solving for the issues that arise. I find new roadblocks everyday with CA.  It should be bare minimum to have a puppet with proper head tilt, walk cycles, and head turner behaviors combined. We should not have to jump through fire hoops to achieve this. You don't have a sample puppet with that combo because you know it struggles. There are so

Create an illustrator artwork file with a layer, and another layer inside that layer.Create a box in the first layer, and another box inside the second layerimport this into Character Animatormove the boxes around in Character Animatormove the boxes around in Illustrator, saveafter updating the connection to illustrator the boxes will not be in their original location, or matching illustrator.  they also cannot be "reset" to their original location because their precise x and y location is trasnfered from illustrator and not specifically known to the user in any way.Reset layer does not work.  Deleting the layers in Character Animator DOES work but it then removes ALL the behaviors and handles etc. RESET LAYER in Character Animator should reset everything to as it was when it was first imported!

Character Animator (Beta) Version 23.1 builds (v23.1.0.16 and later) now have improved stability and performance when drawing content in the Scene and Puppet panels, and rendering to disk, by updating the GPU requirements from OpenGL to use Metal on macOS and DirectX 12 on Windows. Recent macOS systems should support Metal. Windows systems with older GPUs might require updated display drivers to support DirectX 12.   As you use Character Animator (Beta), please let us know if any errors or glitches appear while doing the following operations: Using the Scene or Puppet panels Rendering to disk (commands in the File > Export submenu)   Known issues and limitations No known issues at this time.

Hi Everyone!We would appreciate everyone (if you haven't already) use the beta and specifically the new GPU changes. You can read more about it here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/character-animator-beta-discussions/feature-focus-modernized-gpu-support/td-p/13220574If you have an existing Character Animator project that you think is slow to render, please try and render an MP4 file and confirm it looks correct. Please post your results, especially if you encounter any issues.    Character Animator (Beta) Version 23.1 builds (v23.1.0.16 and later) now have improved stability and performance when drawing content in the Scene and Puppet panels, and rendering to disk, by updating the GPU requirements from OpenGL to use Metal on macOS and DirectX 12 on Windows.

Hello. It seems that after I installed motion libray onto my puppet, the Limb IK behavior stopping the arms from stretching stopped working.  I am wondering if I could get help.  Right now, I don't have any walk behaviors and I only have different views for the head group.  I am just wondering if Motion library is affecting the dragger for arm stretchiness. 

Hi all... In case you haven't tried the latest Character Animator (Beta) build, we're testing a general change to the app that might affect how puppets appear in the Scene and Puppet panels, and scenes are rendered to disk. We'd like to make sure these changes are stable enough for release, and would like to have you try the latest Beta build, and let us know if you encounter anything that prevents you from using this build.   More info: Feature Focus: Modernized GPU support    Thanks! the Character Animator team

the updated version does not work for me it loads alright but it does not show the puppet or any image in the scene panel.  it just appear black

Getting this error any time I scroll on my magic mouse. In rig mode, using the Option scroll to zoom, and in Scenes scrolling side to side in the takes section and in the Option + Scroll zoom as well.Still love the Beta!Thanks!

Introducing the Motion Library, a new Character Animator behavior. The Character Animator Motion Library (powered by Mixamo) is a library of 350+ full-body character animations, captured from professional motion actors. Dance moves ranging from ballet to hip hop can be applied with one quick selection. Sports moves from basketball to bowling are super simple. And a range of walking, running, and jumping are also available. Moves that were difficult to animate are now within everyone’s reach.   Tutorial Check out this tutorial from Okay Samurai:   Puppets to use with the Motion Library Use these example puppets.   Requirements Puppets must have Body, Motion Library, and Limb IK behaviors applied to the same layer. Full body puppets with typical human dimensions work the best. Body behavior must be picking up relevant body handles properly. Body behavior requires puppets with at least one arm (Head/Neck/Shoulder and Elbow/Wrist) to estimate the body scale.   Curren
