Okay, Blender people.  Can somebody do me a huge favor?  I have camera tracking data that I can only export as a .txt file compatable will blender.  And I need it in Poser.

I have the files here, and links to the python script to import this to blender and a tutorial. 

Can someone please import this into Blender for me, and export the animation of hte camera as a BVH?  

Please, it is extreeeeeeeeemely important.  And thank you.      :)

I'm not sure about the BVH end of it, but if you need any other files or tutorials I'd be happy to do a search.
The files I need converted are attatched.

EDIT: i can't attatch the files fro some reason, so I uploaded them and here are hte links.

I would have, but the video you provided is all after effects....?  I don't have that.

Is there a reason you can't download blender and do this yourself?

Are you sure blender exports bvh files?

This is quoted from Cambo/ideasman42, the author of Blender's BVH handling,  :

"Hi, Blender 2.41 is able to import, edit bvhs and export them, but only as a hierarchy of empties.

I wasnt happy with only supporting empties so I removed the scripts for 2.42 and they also needed re-writing.

Recently I rewrote the BVH importer.
which should work with 2.42.

projects.blender.org/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/blender/release/scripts/bvh_import.py

But the exporter has not been written so far.
expect to get to it in the coming months.

  • Cam"

This was in August, he and others are working on restoring the export functionality.

If you haven't done this already, read the Blender wiki. It has the manual, tutorials and examples. Blender is difficult at first because it's complex.

mediawiki.blender.org/index.php/Main_Page

I'm not completely used to it myself and I've been using it since before version 1 and still have an ancient copy of it on one of my PPC's as well as the current version on my Thinkpad.

Give youself time to learn it before trying to achieve anything, like practising a musical instrument or martial art. Take a couple of hours a day to do a set exercise until you know it, then move on to the next exercise, and so on until your are comfortable with the necessary functions for what you want to achieve.
