Discreet announced character studio 4 today, which the company is demonstrating at Siggraph this week. Enhancements in version 4 include:
A non-linear animation mixer that blends multiple motion files, and helps blend of motion capture with key-framed animation.
A "time warp" feature to help control changing animation timings, like increasing or decreasing motion speeds.
An "animation analyzer" for correcting discontinuities by analyzing animated limbs.
An "animation fixer" that suggests fixes and has a "most likely resolution" mode which lets the system tweak the data in a way that maintains tangencies and provides smoother character motions.
The ability to view quaternion rotations as function curves, which combines smooth quaternion rotations with the easy control capabilities of function curves. character studio 4 will ship this Fall, but no firm date nor pricing information was provided.
