About Motorica
Motorica is a generative AI character animation platform designed for AAA game studios, animators, and Unreal Engine teams. It transforms root motion paths—whether preset or custom keyframed—into full-body FBX animations without requiring motion capture or cleanup. The platform offers over 150 locomotion styles, with options for looping and constant-speed optimization to produce gameplay-ready clips. Users can generate motion datasets via Motion Factory for motion matching and other gameplay animation systems, tailoring character movement parameters to specific needs. Motorica integrates directly with Unreal Engine through a plugin, enabling automated retargeting, dataset imports, and the creation of pose search databases for UE motion matching workflows. The tool supports pipelines across Unreal Engine, Unity, Maya, Blender, and Maxon Cinema 4D, making it versatile for diverse production environments. Its workflow emphasizes speed and consistency, allowing teams to produce high-quality locomotion animations efficiently without extensive manual intervention.
