There are 4 core steps to complete for a quick MagicArticulate experience:
- environmental preparation
- Python 3.8+ environment (virtual environment recommended)
- GPU-accelerated PyTorch Framework
- pass (a bill or inspection etc)
pip install -r requirements.txt
Installation of dependencies
- Model Preparation
- Prepare static model files in OBJ/FBX format
- Make sure the model mesh is complete (it is recommended to check with Blender first)
- Run Generation
- Skeletal generation:
python generate_skeleton.py --input model.obj
- Weighted prediction:
python predict_weights.py --input model_with_skeleton.obj
- Skeletal generation:
- Effectiveness Verification
- Checking Bone Layers in Blender/Maya
- Testing basic animations (e.g. rotating, moving joints)
For first-time users, it is recommended to download the example model and configuration file from the project's GitHub by modifying themain.py
A quick validation process of the parameters in the When performance problems are encountered, it is possible to reduce the--resolution
parameter values to shorten the processing time.
