10 Great Free Resources

...for Indie Developers

If you are an independent game developer, you are likely working within a very fixed budget, however that doesn't mean that your game must be low quality. If you are a talented artist or programmer, there are a number of good free resources that can help your project development without draining your bank account. It is obvious that expensive tools can often do things that free tools can't, but the core development of a game does not need to rely on these tools. If you are an artist, there is good software to help you create content. If you are a good programmer, there are free development environments. We would like to present some free resources that can assist you in developing your independent game. This list is not comprehensive but rather a good slice of programs that we feel are useful.

FAQs updated for C4D users

Oliver — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 20:13:05 +0000

This little update included a nice fix for users having issues in C4D. Why do the fingers and other end joints on my character look broken in Cinema 4D?

No idea! But you can do this to fix the broken fingers / toes import error you get from importing an auto-rigged character into C4D. Follow these simple steps:

Download the character from Mixamo.com in "Original Pose"
Load it into C4D then click on the Skin tag.
Click "Set Bind Pose" in the attributes Manager.
Done!

This doesn’t work on the T-Pose version but if you have C4D Studio and want to use the T-Pose, fixe the fingers on the Original Pose version, then use the Retarget Tag to from the T-Pose to the Original to set it correctly!

Playable Motion Packs

Oliver — Fri, 21 Oct 2011 17:41:35 +0000

Playable motion packs are Mixamo's answer to plug-and-play game ready 3d animation. Using these motion packs, you can literally preview

animation logic on Mixamo.com - the way you would see it in your game. The packs also come with ready-to-use character controller scripts for Unity 3D, which are available at the time of download.

The downloaded animation files can be used with any control logic in any game engine (you don't have to use ours!). If you'd like to request

a controller for a different engine, please email support at mixamo dot com.

Here's how it works...

On Mixamo.com:

1. Pick your pack (/motions)

2. Change your character (or use ours)

3. Preview animation

This is the cool part. You can click on each animation state, use keyboard controls, or preview each animation file one-by-one (use the animation tab). This is essentially a real-time preview of what your animations will look like when plugged into the Mixamo Character Controller or when using your own.

4. Download pack

5. Download scripts for Unity 3D (in download tray)

The "Graph Text Asset for Unity3d" contains the animation states definition and the information about blending from a state to another.

The "Controller Script for Unity3d" is the script connecting specific keyboard controls to the animation states.

In Unity 3D:

The following steps illustrate how to set up the motion pack and controller on your character. These same steps can also be used if your just simply using the Mixamo Animation State Machine as your controller.

1. Create an Empty GameObject that will act as the master node for the character or NPC

2. Place the character (mesh with skeleton and animations applied) into the new Empty GameObject. (Thus making it a child of the Empty GameObject).

3. Add the AnimationStateMachine.cs script to the Empty GameObject.

4. Set the Target to be the character place inside the Empty GameObject.

5. Set the Graph Text Asset to be the JSON .txt file containing all the state information.

6.Add a CharacterController to the Empty GameObject.

7. Set it up to line up with the character's feet.

8.Add the provided controller or your own custom controller.

Here's how it works...

On Mixamo.com:

1. Pick your pack (/motions)

2. Change your character (or use ours)

3. Preview animation

This is the cool part. You can click on each animation state, use keyboard controls, or preview each animation file one-by-one (use the animation tab). This is essentially a real-time preview of what your animations will look like when plugged into the Mixamo Character Controller or when using your own.

4. Download pack

5. Download scripts for Unity 3D (in download tray)

The "Graph Text Asset for Unity3d" contains the animation states definition and the information about blending from a state to another.

The "Controller Script for Unity3d" is the script connecting specific keyboard controls to the animation states.

In Unity 3D:

1. Create an Empty GameObject that will act as the master node for the character or NPC

2. Place the character (mesh with skeleton and animations applied) into the new Empty GameObject. (Thus making it a child of the Empty GameObject).

3. Add the AnimationStateMachine.cs script to the Empty GameObject.

4. Set the Target to be the character place inside the Empty GameObject.

5. Set the Graph Text Asset to be the JSON .txt file containing all the state information.

6.Add a CharacterController to the Empty GameObject.

7. Set it up to line up with the character's feet.

8.Add the provided controller or your own custom controller.

FAQs updated for C4D users

Oliver — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 20:13:05 +0000

This little update included a nice fix for users having issues in C4D. Why do the fingers and other end joints on my character look broken in Cinema 4D?

No idea! But you can do this to fix the broken fingers / toes import error you get from importing an auto-rigged character into C4D. Follow these simple steps:

Download the character from Mixamo.com in "Original Pose"
Load it into C4D then click on the Skin tag.
Click "Set Bind Pose" in the attributes Manager.
Done!

Playable motion packs are Mixamo's answer to plug-and-play game ready 3d animation. Using these motion packs, you can literally preview

animation logic on Mixamo.com - the way you would see it in your game. The packs also come with ready-to-use character controller scripts for Unity 3D, which are available at the time of download.

The downloaded animation files can be used with any control logic in any game engine (you don't have to use ours!). If you'd like to request

a controller for a different engine, please email support at mixamo dot com.
