The new ragdoll physics in combination with motion capture in VR makes it possible to create interactive motion capture animations. Users can pick up other avatars, throw avatars around, move them around the scene, punch, hold hands, or even pick up avatars by their feet! And can be recorded as mocap and exported right to Blender.

This feature is basically a advanced ragdoll blending controller that provides polynomial weights (sliders) so the user can configuring the blending of the ragdoll with existing motion capture when the avatar is grabbed or picked up. Each of the five ragdoll groups (Head, Spine, Hip, Arms and Legs) contain weight sliders that allow the user to specify the blending amount for specific groups in the ragdoll. Many profiles can be created and allows users to create new animations where avatars can be puppeted in VR and react to physics! This feature also works with the existing weapon system.

This feature works even when player is scaled way up. Scaling up makes the ragdoll avatar appear as miniature avatar to the VR player. And is very useful when hand puppeting a avatars while editing a recording - possibly create cartoon animations, gymnastic, dances, epic battles and many other kinds of interactive animations - and is all exportable to Blender.
