This is the second stream of animating a Ship scene where I record the actual mocap for the cutlass and cannon volley animation. Lots of smoke and fire, volumetric fog, water waves, explosions, and sinking ships!!
Watch the final rendered animation (rendered after the stream): youtu.be/8uBA5xjdLgo
In this stream I fix the Jack Sparrow Mixamo model by re-exporting the .fbx from Blender , this stream fixes the Mixamo avatar hip/root bone issue near the ending of part 1: youtu.be/SqCpQFHxILM
Please like the videos!!! Follow me on Twitch , I'm BlenderModeler on Twitch !!

![Digitalpuppets Avatars - Unreal live-link plugin
This was rendered in real-time using Unreal Engine v4.26. Motion capture in real time is using Mocap Fusion VR live-link plugin (link in details).
This video was created just for testing motion capture and face capture.
I wasnt using elbow trackers in this video so the elbows sometimes clip into the avatars body.
And none of the lighting or materials in the scene have been setup yet.
Apologizes for no audio but Im hoping to make more videos soon! And really want to test out RTX raytracing in the next benchmarks.
Big thanks to Digitalpuppets for allowing me use this avatar!!

![Valve Index, Oculus Touch and Vive Controller - Finger motion capture
Hello @everyone! Just released this update (v5.1.2 beta) and am very excited to share the new hand pose finger capture feature for VR controllers. After four days of non stop working and little sleep I have finally finished developing a new hand pose system. This feature is actually something I have been wanting to add ever since implementing Quest finger tracking earlier this year; since the two were very similar I already had much of the code already written, and a proof of concept that I have been testing already for some months. So it wasnt hard to add but still was a lot of work. Anyway hope everyone likes the greater realism of the avatars thumbs and fingers, especially users with Index and Quest controllers!
Im just really glad that avatars thumbs no longer appear broken and now move more realistically. Avatars can finally give proper thumbs up!
And I hope viewers also give thumbs up for this video !!

![Connecting a Hang Glider to a Powerboat and launching
This game Im really excited to work on, A hang-gliding simulator in VR!
This shows how to connect the gliders to other tow vehicles for launching.
Then by simply pressing both joystick thumbsticks at the same time will release the catch and the glider is then in free flight. Please let me know what you think of the idea!!!
And another glider video here: https://youtu.be/2nA0x6crid4
The game Im using is Mocap Fusion [VR] Playtest beta on Steam : https://store.steampowered.com/app/1540000/Mocap_Fusion VR
- Make sure to download the Playtest version (v9.3.5 or later) for the new hang glider simulator (beta) update!!! Connecting a Hang Glider to a Powerboat and launching](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/nlaK6wFmAN4/mqdefault.jpg)
