Thank you for another knowledge bomb bossman! Impatiently waiting for your advanced c4d course(s)?!- happy to be a tester wink wink lol - still rave to ppl about how basecamp changed my life! Hope your well after the gigantic motion tour!
Thanks a lot for this. I'm making a game and was going crazy. You made my life a lot easier
Great stuff! Thank you!
More all that good stuff than seconds
HI, thanks for tutorial but this is not working in newest cinema R25.117 , as soon as I do wight transfer the whole rig moves, fingers, arms and legs are not aligned any more, up until this point everything works. Is this a bug in R25 or something is changed and this workflow does not work any more?
Most underrated teeth.

Hi everyone! I've gone through the process of rigging a character in Cinema4D with Mixamo, but my character doesn't appear to have a head control and some of the joints don't align properly with the mesh... Any advice? Thanks!
I always seem to run into an issue when clicking the "transfer weights" button after dragging the model into the box, the button isn't greyed out however when I click it, nothing happens? There is a weight tag on it from mixamo, that has a well painetd weight map as well.
Running R23. When I click the 'Animate' tab (in 'Character'-'Object') 'Root' and its children disappear and I'm left with 'Master_con+' and 'Bind_Hierarchy' and their children. I can't follow the tutorial after this as the options are not the same and I can't find my own work around. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thank you EJ for this amazing Tutorial! I wanted to ask you, how do you export that animation with a .fbx into Unity? Do you have to bake the animation? I have been searching for days and i cant find the solution. I wanted to thank you for sharing your knowledge with us, I've learnd so much with your videos!

Hi EJ, The mixamo control rig works perfect, but...... when we want 2 or more animation from mixamo blended in (motion clip) >>> WITH the mixamo control Rig included. Is that also possible? Because when I add " add motion clip" the rig goes unfortunately all the way crazy :'(. You are a great C4d Sensei

I brought my character in to c4d from mixamo without an animation. All I need is a specific character to pose. I followed you all the way until the control tab. C4D 2023.2.2 doesn't have that but it does have a "retarget master". Nothing in my object manager has a weight tag either. Any clues?

the other thing i will say is that you have to export it from mixamo in the original pose not the T pose otherwise it snaps back to the original pose when transferring weights and breaks the rig
My character suddenly goes back to t-pose and i just can't fix it by doing the process again? anyone with this problem???
