Why Extract 3D Animations?
When working with motion capture or animated characters, you often just want the animation data (the 'take') to apply it to a different character, but the file includes a heavy, unnecessary character mesh.
Our tool removes all geometry, materials, and textures from the file, preserving only the armature (skeleton) and keyframe actions, yielding a tiny file that is perfect for animation retargeting in game engines.
