Question

Body tracking requires a puppet with an armed (active) and enabled body behaviour - CH Beta

Hi there Adobe Community

I have seen the demo video of this Beta version of CH and subsequently downloaded it, and was looking forwarded to getting my puppet to do some funky dance moves (ha ha) using my Son's Band.

I should say that I am new to CH, I have searched for an answer to this question on the web and on the forums but failed to find and answer.

Would one of you clever people kindly point me in the right direction?

Thanks

    To use body tracking you need to have a puppet on the stage that implements the Body Tracking behavior. 

     

    To find example puppets with Body Tracking simply click the Home icon in Character Animator and hover over the sample puppet descriptions.   Clicking on a Body Tracking enabled puppet there will take you to the Ch Stage with that puppet.  You should now be able to enable body tracking.

     

    Hope that helps!

    Can you enable body tracking on characters made from scratch?

    Yes, add the "Body" behavior to the root folder of the puppet.

    What is CH?

    You need to provide the full name of the program so a Moderator may move this to the correct forum

     

    Also, for a beta version, you may need to find a support/report link where you found the program
