I have been trying to follow the tutorials and assess whether or not this software works well with our current workflow,
So far I have tracked about 30 frames of animation, frame 600 to 630 lets say,
I have imported an FBX file of an evolver character with joints and mesh
I associated all of the joints correctly, the character is matching the motion capture very well
Now I am a bit stumped, if I export an FBX file into a blank Maya scene, It imports the geometry and the skeleton, however the geometry seems to be invisible, and the skeleton is collapsed with every joint being at 0 translation. The joints do have their keyframes still, so the animation exists, I'm just curious as to how I am supposed to use this data now?

Did I miss a step, is there a tutorial that might help me out? Any advice is welcome thanks.

Maybe I should clarify, basically, I want to export the animation applied to my character in IPStudio and import it into maya, are there any steps in the middle? I am using maya 2011 in case that matters.

Ur best bet will be just export the skeletal animation from ipi as bvh, and then use it with HIK in maya directly for retargeting onto your own skinned characters.

Thanks for the advice, now I haven't ever used human IK before, all of my characters have rigs I built manually, Are there any other retargeting tools that don't require HIK's specific controller set-up to use? Or am I going to have to rebuild the skeleton of my character using HIK

Okay solved the problems
For anyone else having this issue:

The character file needed to be changed to centimetre scale in the preferences before building the Human IK Rig as apparently Human IK works in cm. I also had to re-export motion capture data With T-pose in first frame (Actually frame 0) which is a setting in the export panel, then re target on frame 0 in order for the joints to have proper orientation, now everything works like a charm, very excited to keep using this product!
