Motion Flow Graph

The first step in Motion Flow mode is to add clips in the Motion Flow Graph

for use in scripts. Clips represent all or part of a BIP file. Transitions represent

different paths through the clips in the Motion Flow Graph. A transition

looping back to the same clip represents a cycle or loop.

If a biped is using a shared motion flow, then the title of the graph dialog says

"Shared Motion Flow Graph", followed by the name of the shared motion

flow. Shared Motion Flows are used to control multiple bipeds with one shared

motion flow.

There are two ways to create clips in the

Motion Flow Graph on page 4549. The

first method lets you create a blank clip to which you later assign a BIP file.

The second method lets you create multiple clips at once by choosing a several

BIP files at once.

Procedures

To create clips in the Motion Flow Graph:

1 Select a biped

Open the Motion panel.
