Platform Support

Kinetiq Engine is engineered for cross-platform versatility, supporting a wide range of skeletal structures.

Supported Skeletons

Kinetiq auto-detects the rig type when you load an avatar via File → Add Avatar or File → Import. Each of these rigs is a one-click load with the bone mappings, IK chains, and presets pre-configured.

Platform	Bone Count	Target System	Notes
Second Life Bento	159 bones	SL advanced rigged avatars	Full facial, wings, tail, hand articulation
Second Life Classic	26 bones	SL legacy avatars	Basic humanoid only
Unity Humanoid	54 bones	Unity Mecanim system	Standard Unity humanoid rig
UE5 Mannequin	67 bones	Unreal Engine 5	Epic's standard mannequin (Manny / Quinn)
VRM	varies	VRoid Studio, VTuber pipelines	VRM 0.0 and VRM 1.0 spec, includes spring bones / blendshapes
Ready Player Me	~52 bones	Ready Player Me ecosystem	Cross-app avatars used in metaverses
Reallusion CC4	varies (~150+ bones)	Character Creator 4, iClone	High-fidelity production avatars
Roblox R15	15 bones	Standard Roblox	Most common Roblox avatars
Roblox R6	6 bones	Legacy Roblox	Simplified block avatars
Mixamo	~59 bones	Mixamo / Adobe pipeline	Auto-detected via mixamorig prefix
Move AI	varies	Move AI markerless mocap	Direct ingest of Move AI's exported skeletal data
Rokoko	varies	Rokoko Smartsuit / Smartgloves	Direct ingest of Rokoko exports
SMPL	24 joints	Research / ML pipelines	Academic standard for body model research
Custom	any	Anything not on the list	Use Rig Studio wizard

For platforms not on the list, Rig Studio walks through manual joint identification in ~60 seconds and lets you save a preset for reuse.

Second Life (Bento)

Second Life's Bento skeleton is our most comprehensive target, supporting:

• 159 bones total
• Full facial rigging (32 bones)
• Hand articulation (30 bones per hand)
• Wing bones (6 per wing)
• Tail bones (6 bones)
• Hind legs (optional, 12 bones)

Export Settings

• Format: BVH
• Frame Rate: 30 FPS (SL standard)
• Priority: Configurable (0-6)

Second Life Priority

Use priority 4 for most animations. Higher priorities override lower ones, but can cause issues with AO (Animation Overrider) systems.

Unity

Unity's Mecanim system uses a standardized humanoid rig for easy retargeting.

Supported Configurations

• Humanoid - 54 bones, automatic retargeting
• Generic - Custom rig, manual mapping

Export Settings

• Format: GLB or BVH (FBX coming Q2 2026)
• Frame Rate: 30 or 60 FPS

Integration Tips

Use Unity's GLB importer plugin (e.g. glTFast) to ingest GLB animation clips directly. For BVH, third-party tools like BVH Importer on the Asset Store handle the conversion to AnimationClip.

// Load animation in Unity (assumes GLB import plugin)
AnimationClip clip = Resources.Load<AnimationClip>("MyAnimation");
Animator animator = GetComponent<Animator>();
animator.Play(clip.name);

Unreal Engine 5

UE5's Mannequin is the standard skeleton for most Unreal projects.

Supported Configurations

• UE5 Mannequin - 67 bones
• MetaHuman - Full facial (coming soon)

Export Settings

• Format: GLB or BVH (FBX coming Q2 2026)
• Frame Rate: 30 FPS
• Scale: 1.0 (UE units)

GLB → UE5

UE5 supports glTF/GLB import natively via the Interchange Framework. Drag the GLB into the Content Browser and the animation imports automatically.

Integration Tips

// Load animation in UE5
UAnimSequence* Anim = LoadObject<UAnimSequence>(nullptr, TEXT("/Game/Animations/MyAnim"));

Roblox

Roblox uses simplified skeletons optimized for their platform.

R15 (Standard)

• 15 bones
• Most avatars use this rig
• Good balance of flexibility and performance

R6 (Legacy)

• 6 bones only
• Block-style avatars
• Very limited articulation

Export Settings

• Format: GLB (FBX coming Q2 2026)
• Frame Rate: 30 FPS
• Scale: Roblox units

Roblox Import

Roblox has strict file size limits. Keep animations under 10 seconds for optimal import.

Browser Compatibility

The editor runs in any modern browser with WebAssembly + WebGL 2.0 support:

Browser	Minimum Version	Notes
Chrome	90+	Recommended; best performance
Firefox	89+	Full support
Safari	15+	Full support; some BETA features may need restart on first load
Edge	Chromium-based	Same as Chrome

For Vision Capture specifically, a webcam (or video file) is required. Mediapipe runs entirely client-side via WebAssembly.

Retargeting

Kinetiq automatically handles bone mapping between different skeleton standards. The retargeting system:

1. Identifies source skeleton from imported file
2. Maps to target skeleton using bone name matching
3. Adjusts proportions to match target rig
4. Preserves motion quality through constraint-aware mapping

Supported Retarget Paths

Source	Target	Quality
Unity → Bento	Excellent
UE5 → Unity	Excellent
Bento → Unity	Good
Any → Roblox R15	Good (simplified)
