Channel: Royal Skies
Date: 2020-09-13

A lot of people keep asking if their rig is compatible with Kinect Animations. So, I feel like I should explain that any rig can be made compatible with any motion capture animation. Today, I'll teach you about Rig Combination Theory and how it works- Hope it helps :)

A HUGE thanks to all the Patrons for pitching in to help purchase the Kinect. There's no way I'd normally be able to afford this hardware, and create tutorials for it if it wasn't for the amazing support on Patreon so thank you so much :)
