Does anyone know if there is a site online where you can download or purchase BVH files? I'm in specific need of something like a backflip that a gymnast would do. Thanks in advance!

http://www.credo-interactive.com/products/index.html Credo Interactive offers a wide variety of motion captured files, as well as programs from developing your own. You could check that out and see if they have any gymnast moves. HTH Ryan

How much are you willing to spend?

mantismotion offers an enormous variety of mo-cap files in Filmbox and BVH formats, each costing about $35. They have a backflip motion available here in the Marketplace, but you can find the rest of their collection at TurboSquid.

cmdctrlesc also has a motion-pack in the Marketplace which includes a 51-frame backflip in Poser's .pz2 format.

Thanks for the replies ... I just tried to purchase some files from Credo Interactive and for some reason it wouldn't take two of my credit cards. I suspect it's a site issue, because some of the other links weren't working correctly when I tried to look further into some of their products. So I guess that's out. 8-) I did notice the Mantis Motion backflip, but $35.00 seems a bit on the pricey side for one file. I may give the files by cmdctrlesc a try though! Thanks!

I remember downloading a "free" backflip .BVH for the Marvel Beast figure. I think it was on the old "3Dcomics.com" which no longer exists. Does anyone know where the superhero website is these days?

Animotions. Not sure if they have any of the 3Dcomics.com stuff though.
