Hi, i am trying to add an animation from a .bvh file to my human model made with makehuman, the problemis that my model has the arms open in t form and the rest position from the animation hasn´t them in that position. I have try to move the rest position manually but if meshes the animation, how can i change it?thank´s
Load it up into BVHacker. It is free. http://davedub.co.uk/bvhacker/ You can set a T pose there. Then save it.
I have downloaded the program but when i press set t pose the only thing i see is the skeleton in rest pose, but it doesn´t change to t rest pose.
I have found in this forum this script, what it mades is to set the position of the first frame as restposition, that is exactly what i need because my animation start with t-pose, the problem is that the script has errors in the calls of the fucntions and methods, maybe because it is older but i think that it will be simple to fix by someone with script knwloedges. Could anyone fix it?:

import mathutils
# Just hardcoding names at the moment
rigId = "BvhRig" # Id of the armature object
ActionId = "BvhRig.003Action.001" # Id of the action to convert
rootBoneId = "Hips" # the rootbone to take travel out from..
ob = bpy.data.objects["BvhRig.003"]
action = bpy.data.actions[ActionId]
print(action.name)
#action.select = True
#bpy.ops.action.clean(threshold=0.01)
frames = action.frame_range.magnitude
# for each key in the action for the hip posebone subtract out the movement.
transformVector = mathutils.Vector((0,0,0))
IdentityQuatro = [1,0,0,0]
quatro = [0,0,0,0]
for fcurve in action.fcurves:
points = fcurve.keyframe_points
i = 1
while i < len(points):
#if it's a rotation key we'll smack it hard.
j = 0
point = points[i]
frame = 0
if fcurve.data_path.find("rotation_quaternion") > 0:
# co gives us frame in 0, value in 1.
frame = point.co[0]
value = point.co[1]
quatro[fcurve.array_index] = value + IdentityQuatro[fcurve.array_index] - points[0].co[1]
#Ok take out the difference from pose mode.
point.co[1] = quatro[fcurve.array_index]
if fcurve.data_path == "pose.bones[\"%s\"].rotation_quaternion"%(rootBoneId):
print("frame:{0} {1}".format(frame,quatro))
i += 1
#To do ... change the rest position to the pose in frame 0
# with bpy.ops.pose.armature_apply() but not sure how to make sure it's in frame 0 otherwise it puts pose in active frame which turns it to crap. Running the script in pose mode at frame 0 and it works a treat with this.
# Either make all quatros in frame 0 to Identity or remove frame 0 to set it back to Tpose.
# Move the Tpose in frame 0 to the origin. Well the Hips i suppose... not a real biggy.
#bpy.ops.pose.armature_apply()
