Retargeting Actor type property settings
Human Limits property setting
Human Limits property setting prevents a character from bending a body part in an unrealistic way, while still reaching with its hands and feet.
While the character’s movement may change slightly when Human Limits is activated, it is better to have a character that moves correctly than to exactly match your model’s movement without considering physical human limits.
Feet Stabilization property settings
The Feet Stabilization property settings enable you to stabilize the feet of your model. This may be necessary in certain situations, such as when you have data with noise that causes your model’s feet to jitter.
The Feet Stabilization property settings are described in the following table.
