Voxel and Heatmap skinning

Before I re hash my skinning videos, just wanted to make this for the many people asking me for a basic CAT rig setup.

In this video I show how to create a very basic jump cycle using 3ds MAX. This jump animation will then be cut up to suite a certain workflow in Unreal engine.

Here is a quick run through of the tools needed to create a quick and easy run cycle animation using the CAT motion tools in 3D Studio MAX.

Here is a quick run through of the tools needed to create a quick and easy Idle animation using the CAT rig in 3D Studio MAX.

I use this method sometimes to get a nice feel for the characters boundaries, without having a skin done. I get asked a lot how it can be done, so here you go.

Something I was going over with students, thought it maybe a good tutorial online. Feel free to ask questions.
