Can someone please upload a t-posed skeleton from iPi Soft in BVH format compatible with Blender 2.69?

I need to make my rigs exactly the same way as iPi to avoid issues with retargeting.

Thanks.

Why can't you get it right from Mocap Studio using the Export function?

Well, I didn't know that for once :) I also don't want to burn through trial without actually trying it (and I am still in the process of buying cameras/tripods/etc. and finding a place with area suitable for mocap with 4 PS Eye cams).

So having someone providing a rig would allow me to have my model ready and when I am ready to start testing mocap, I'll get trial version.

OK, I see your point.
You could extract the skeleton from the sample export files in our wiki. But I've prepared the file for you :)

Thanks a bunch! Does it look about right:

Now I've got a question: the rig looks down -Y axis in Blender. My rig has to look +X axis in Blender in order to export properly into the game.

It's strange because in BVH the skeleton is facing Z+ direction, and head is in Y+ side. The same as in iPi Mocap Studio.
I think there're some settings when opening BVH in Blender to swap coordinates as necessary.
Try asking on Blender forums.

I figured it out. I'll post it here in case other Blender users need that:

When importing BVH into Blender, I used the following settings to have rig facing +X:

Forward: X Forward
Up: Y Up
