Multiple Animations Chained in the Timeline

[VanDoug]

The node currently supports only one animation at a time. Many actions are split into a few animations, such as action-entry, action-loop, and action-end. This design and implementation cause headaches when you have to combine several video outputs for a complete action sequence while aligning camera movements in between. This application has great potential. It will be more useful, practical, and flexible if multiple animations can be chained together within the explorer node and output as one video.

@VanDoug - What do you mean by "node"? Right now this app is mostly designed to be a animation library and an auto-rigging tool.

It sounds like you want more of a sequencer where you can put different animations on a timeline and compose the final result like a short movie or something. You mention video. Are you more interested in a video file, or actual 3d exported files like GLB. If is mostly sequencing and video export, there are better solutions than Mesh2Motion like Blender. That also exports out to video and has a lot more with that area.

The app is implemented as a ComfyUI custom node pack and exposed to users as a ComfyUI workflow node. It has to compete with Mixamo and others if it's mainly an animation library. What advantages does it have over other animation libraries? Since it is integrated with ComfyUI, I expect to use it in this ComfyUI pipeline: Mesh2Motion -> an action sequence for guiding AI models(output video) -> controlnet -> an AI video model -> a final video with a designated character performing the action. Of course, I can use Blender or other tools to generate the guiding video for the same purpose. It's just much easier and time-saving if Mesh2Motion can be used in this way until one day, AI video models have evolved to handle human actions flawlessly.

To clarify, this is entire project is pretty much just me working on it on my free time after work. I am mostly doing this this to scratch a creative itch. I am not too concerned with competition.

What you are asking for are some neat ideas, but it isn't something I would be able to add all by myself in addition to all the work I already have in mind. It is one reason why I have this open sourced. People can take it and customize it and add things to it if they think it is useful. I imagine that is how this got in the ComfyUI software. You could probably ask the ComfyUI developer that what you are asking. That might be better as they will know how to make it work with that.

Ok, thanks for the clarification. I want to be a content creator and am always looking for better ways to go for it. Good luck with the project and your future endeavors.
