not supported yet

Show VR View

If enabled shows the left eye send to the actor HMD in the 3D view. If disabled shows a free navigation 3D camera controlled by the mocap operator.

Auto Export

To make captures more efficient the Auto Export setting can be enabled. If enabled and a Stage Direction is selected each capture down on a Captured Characters is automatically exported into a sub directory with the same name as the stage direction. If the capture exists already it is overwritten. This avoids the need to manually export captures which is especially a time saver for single-person use.

Auto exporting exports animations into directories of this pattern: {projectDirectory}/export/{scene}/{stage direction}/{object}/{animation}.*.
