I don't believe this is possible without writing your own MotionBuilder plugin to stream the data.

could you please advice me what concepts are being used to write my own code to plug in into vizard?
Thanks

This has nothing to do with Vizard. You need to write a MotionBuilder plugin that streams data over VRPN. Once you have this working, then any VRPN capable application will work with MotionBuilder, including Vizard.

We don't provide support for creating MotionBuilder plugins, you will need to contact Autodesk about this.

Hi Farshizzo,
Thanks for your replies
The data I’ll send over VRPN must be had a specific format (FBX or other) to be capable to control vizard’s avatar? can I write my a MotionBuilder plugin through Python and connect it with vizard's avatar ?
Before to starting write my code, could you please advice me whether there are any important points I have to be aware about them?
