files/pictures/picture-23.jpgOn April 1, Testarossa ToolsInMotion, a developer of human motion editing applications for the 3D content creation market, announced the release of VROOM FOR MAYA, a motion-capture plug-in library for Alias|Wavefront's MAYA 3D animation software. The library includes plug-ins that let users read
and write skeletal animation in the Acclaim ASF/AMC, Biovision BVH,
and Motion Analysis HTR mocap file formats, as well as import the
motion of a mocap skeleton into a MAYA skeleton regardless of the
reference pose and skeletal structure. The library also provides
tools to exchange skeletal animation data between MAYA and VROOM,
Testarossa's application for batch processing animation data. VROOM
FOR MAYA 1.0 is a plug-in library for MAYA 2.5 and 3.0 on Windows NT
and Windows 2000. It is available for $349. An evaluation license of
VROOM FOR MAYA and VROOM can be requested by visiting Testarossa's
