Our team is working hard on a version of Character Animator that includes body tracking. If you are interested in evaluating this work in progress, download Character Animator (Beta) from the Beta apps section of the Creative Cloud desktop app.

 

For more information, see https://adobe.com/go/ch_bodytracker or the our official Beta forum thread: https://community.adobe.com/t5/character-animator-beta/feature-focus-body-tracker/td-p/12043365.

Hello. I just got the Character Animator Beta and I love it. Tgough one small problem

 

 

The Cam has picked up my limbs and is showing the body tracking but nothing happens to the character. I used the exact characters that Dave used and still doesn't work. Though only the face works for some weird reason. Also that my cam is perfectly working with it

 

Please help

Yash

Hmm, very strange, haven't seen this yet - this might be a bug if you're a) using the characters from adobe.com/go/ch_bodytracker, b) the body tracker icon is blue in the cam & mic panel, c) the body behavior is armed (red dot on) under behaviors, and d) under tracked handles at least the wrists are checked.

 

It's very strange that the face is working but not the body. If it persists, if you could share a video of what's happening that would help us isolate it and fix it. Thanks and sorry for the issue!

Yeah Thanks. I wonder. My dad told me the characters you explained in your video have to be rigged in order to be set up for Body Tracking. Which Characters are rigged currently?
