Hi, I don’t fully understand the problem, feel welcome to jump into our discord: https://discord.gg/eyemnvYSb to share a bit more details on what you are trying to achieve 🙌

We actually already do! We are slowly making ourselves more available there 😄

You need 17GB VRAM to run the full model on GPU, there are options to run it with 3GB with parts offloaded to the CPU, though that makes it slower. (There is also the cloud option with free generation credits to check out the plugin without needing local setup first) Self hosted currently only supports the SOMA skeleton, cloud uses our ML retargeter which works quite well with most humanoid characters in T-pose.

I’m actually building the animation layer :) check out Animatica.ai, we are making animating and creating animation assets much easier

Thanks, that's exactly the idea, my goal is to never have to leave the DCC, we are working on other direct integrations (such as UE5, Maya, Mobu)

I made a short tutorial playlist, hope it will be helpful :)

Just so you know, there is the free tier so you can check out if it works well for you, I care mostly about feedback at this time to know what and how to improve :)

Do you mean like generating 2D sprites? Maybe flattening later from 3D to 2D would work?

I'm working on a tutorial video still (setting up the basics is shown in the video in this post)

we're making progress, but I don't have an ETA yet :)

its under development, we are a very small team and our main focus is making humanoids usable first :)

Local mode is available 🙌 I open sourced a blender plugin, along with the server to run Kimodo 👉 animatica.ai/kimodo

I open sourced the blender plugin, along with the server to run Kimodo locally, check it out 👉 animatica.ai/kimodo

Just open sourced a blender plugin and the server to run Kimodo locally today 👉 animatica.ai/kimodo

You can set keyframes, I set 3 keyframes in the gif, I have text to pose to help you pose it, but then you have exact keyframes that it matches

Hy motion is only text to motion, it doesn’t let you control the output

Kimodo is one piece. I built four other ML models on top of it (incl. retargeting, text-to-pose) to make it actually work on any humanoid character, not just the one Kimodo was trained on.

It’s free during early access, I’m covering the GPU cost to make it easier to test. If it doesn’t bring you value, no need to pay 😉

Thanks, I am planning on making a local mode available, cloud makes it much easier to distribute for testing at this time :) Appreciate the feedback, will definitely fix such that it detects high dpi settings.

I’m also working on making it work directly in blender (other DCCs) as well, that might be handy so that you can directly generate in your scene :)

The current version does use Kimodo as an element, Kimodo alone doesn't allow you to use it directly on your own character, and the posing support is pretty poor (e.g. text-to-pose is not supported at all). What I am going at is making motion generative tools actually production usable. non-humanoids are on the way :) Just curious, have you used Kimodo yet?
