model.

3 Click Set to apply the retargeting.

need to repeat steps 2 and 3 for different selections of mapped tracks.

You might also need to use the FK Retargeting Extent group to account

for the different proportions. See

Retargeting Rollout on page 6886 for

more details.

5 When you're finished, save your mapping to preserve the retargeted data,

and then click Load Motion to apply the animation to the currently

selected objects.

Retargeting is essentially a “by hand” process. You might need to try

different settings to get the result you need. You can remove retargeting

by highlighting a mapped track in the Retargetable Nodes list, and then

clicking Clear.

Load Animation lets you load animation from an XAF (XML Animation File)

file to objects in your scene. Part of the animation-loading process is mapping

the animation; that is, specifying which objects in the scene are to receive the

loaded animation tracks.

animation, see
