Mixamo Foot rest is ~90° from the shin, so leaving Foot at bind-local when toe tips drop out pointed soles at the camera. Aim ankle/heel→toe when visible, otherwise plantarflex toward ground; widen thigh swing and ease landmark smoothing so high knees track more closely. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughMocap foot handling now resolves canonical directions from foot children and visible ankle, heel, and toe landmarks. Live retargeting adds plantar-flexion fallbacks and foot-specific limits. A regression test covers occluded landmarks. Mocap smoothing parameters were also updated. ChangesMocap retargeting updates
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This PR changes live body retargeting and can still cause abrupt foot flips, incorrect bind-direction behavior for hands or the head, or synthetic foot orientation when landmarks are missing. The change is not merge-ready until these bounded correctness risks are fixed or explicitly accepted by the owner. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

For hip and knee landmark directions that are 115–140° from the calibrated reference—such as the near-antiparallel high-knee/tracking-glitch inputs this path already guards against—the new 140° limit accepts the raw backward aim instead of clamping it. This reintroduces the Mixamo thigh/shin folding that the previous 115° cap prevented; only foot roles should receive the new foot-specific limit.
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Agreed — restored the 115° thigh/shin clamp (feet stay at 100°). The muted high-knee amplitude was mostly One-Euro smoothing, not the clamp ceiling. Fixed in f7d5920.

When toe and heel landmarks are unavailable and a nearly vertical shin contains ordinary forward/backward noise, normalizing the ground projection here makes the result approach -torsoFwd or +torsoFwd depending on the noise sign, while an exactly vertical shin returns torsoFwd. Thus an arbitrarily small change around vertical can rotate the requested foot aim by nearly 180° (subsequently clamped to a still-visible 100° jump), causing standing or shallow-lift feet to snap whenever the distal landmarks are occluded. The near-vertical case needs a stable torso-forward choice or a continuous blend.
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Good catch. plantarFlexAim now returns stable torso-forward when |shin·ground| > 0.92, and keeps the forward hemisphere for shallow leans (> 0.7) so vertical noise cannot flip ±torsoFwd. Fixed in f7d5920.
Restore the 115° thigh/shin swing cap from #957 so antiparallel aims still clamp, and keep plantarFlexAim on torso-forward when the shin is near-vertical so occluded-toe standing feet do not snap ±180° from cross-product noise. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Replace the near-vertical cross-product plantar heuristic with a torso-forward projection onto the plane ⊥ shin so hanging/standing feet stay continuous. Relax the regression asserts to catch ceiling/shin-up failure modes that CI hit under the previous threshold. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

Keep the torso-forward ⊥ shin projection as-is; only bias toward ground in the degenerate forward‖shin fallback so small shin Z noise cannot invert adjacent-frame foot aims (CodeRabbit). Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Mixamo ToeBase is not a CMU role, so Foot tgtBindDir fell back to the parent segment (shin). Aiming that axis spun the real toe child to the ceiling. Prefer a real Ogre child for bind direction; keep antiparallel foot aims on torso-forward so clampAimSwing cannot pick an arbitrary +Y. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
