Re: MLB The Show 16 Video - Showing off Human IK
Speaking of animations, I hope eventually to see two things:
Catcher animations completely redone.
The foul tip redone (the 1-handed follow through is way too quick for me).Originally posted by Gibson88Anyone who asked for an ETA is not being Master of their Domain.
It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.Comment

Re: MLB The Show 16 Video - Showing off Human IK
When I read it it sounded crazy, but then I wondered if they could cobble together a poor-mans version to use during spring training when they get face scans. Just to get a few swings from players who want to and/or are getting face scans. Even that is crazy, but I've seen video game developers do crazier things.Comment

if all they did was mocap, 60 hours a week, would that still be enough time? gimme a sec to do the math.Last edited by TheWarmWind; 02-21-2016, 08:45 PM.Comment

ok i by no meas have any idea how long it takes for motion capture to work for one thing...
however in my mind... if done properly you could get each actual player in and have them run through every motion they do in real time... and then we would have every players stuff in there...
we do however have to seriously work on the catcher stuff behind the plate... there is def not enough movement behind the plate for blocking balls or all that...
just my .02...
Are you accounting for the cost involved with bringing every player in? What is the motivation to get every player to come in and do this? What about the time involved?
What about the opportunity cost to do this?
I honestly have a hard time believing that was even a real suggestion.Comment

In your mind it might be feasible but in the real world this is one of the most ludicrous suggestions I have ever read.

You asked for it.
Good point, but your example of rockstar is hard to compare. Rockstar is a much larger dev studio with many more employees, and a MUCH larger dev cycle. Overall, I'm actually more impressed with what the Show devs accomplish, and Red Dead Redemption is in my top 10 favorite games of all time list.

Something that happened when i was playing today
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/uBitw9skYWQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
I preloaded my throw to first base from the very beginning, i didn't go for the tag, computer automatically did that, which i don't mind, but after the tag, instead of going into a smooth throw animation, the fielder freezes and doesn't do anything and then goes into that ready throw animation.
Hopefully in the future, human IK can help with the transition of animations, and make everything smoother. This year it seems like it's only focused on foot planting.
Also the tag animation itself could use some work, definite clipping there as the fielder went through the baserunner during the tag. Don't know if human IK helps with clipping at all.NFL : Atlanta Falcons

Re: MLB The Show 16 Video - Showing off Human IK
^From my understanding I believe the goal is to incorporate more facets of the IK system. Foot planting is the start and I am sure tags would be high on the list.“The saddest part of life is when someone who gave you your best memories becomes a memory”Comment
