I'm trying to characterize a quadruped character, but can't seem to get the alignment of the limbs in a way that Motionbuilder is happy with for the definition of the skeleton.
I have tried to manually rotate all the limbs to they are pointing straight down, as per the tiny mention of quadruped rigs on this page: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/motionbuilder/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2017/ENU...
Here is what it now looks like, with its feet pointing directly downwards:
But the Definition panel still says:
The right arm doesn't seem to be parallel to the X axis.
The left arm doesn't seem to be parallel to the X axis.
I've tried rotating them every which way, but have no idea what to do to make Motionbuilder happy!
What am I doing wrong? There's so little information/examples about how to work with quadrupeds in Motionbuilder!
