Hi, I've gotten fairly proficient at modeling/rigging/skinning characters, but ric0's Weight injector doesn't work on my windows 7 x64. Is there a newer version? I haven't had any luck searching.
(I've downloaded .net framework 2.00)
EDIT: Disregard, I found one. It's a crap tone more simple to make custom characters from scratch then I thought, now if only I had a mo-cap suit... Edited by yukonmuffin on Jan 19, 2012 at 02:34 PM

At this time, unless you want to spend $6000 on a motion capture camera and rig, yes. There have been some wonderful middleware's/ programs released for capturing motion capture with kinect's. Microsoft even released PC drivers for the cameras. If i remember right, stanford university professors/students developed some great stuffs. Google around and see what you can find. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPt_944t9Lc those guys got good results.

My laptop's got a great HD graphics card, and 5x2.9GHz for proccessing power. I look all this up a lot, and I'm sold. You can also use Kinect as a 3d scanner.

I've been messing around a lot, the 3d scanning tech isn't horrible, but not great. I've been taking those models and tracing over them, makes things faster and more acurate. The Animation on the other hand is really great once you get the hang of it. If you don't calibrate it right though your character developes ceribral pulsy.
