Below is a detailed guide on using Rokoko's Motion Library
What is the Rokoko Motion Library?
Using the Motion Library, you can browse through thousands of high quality mocap assets from the world’s top motion capture studios. Many of the assets in this collection are free. Others can be purchased for a small fee ranging from $3 to $20 USD. Pricing is based on the complexity of the asset.
You're able to review assets in a 3D player and see them play on different demo characters before purchasing.
After purchasing, you can store and share all of your purchased animations with your Team.

Introduction to Motion Library in Rokoko Studio
Browsing and Filtering Assets
To browse the entire collection of motion capture assets, simply open up the Motion Library tab in Rokoko Studio and start browsing.
All capture assets can easily be previewed from their individual thumbnails by hovering them.
To get a closer look at the asset simply double click it. In this full preview, you get full control to inspect the asset.
You can use the search bar to look up an asset's title, publisher, category and subcategory.
Assets can be sorted both ascending or descending by their creation date, title or price. These can be further sorted to only shows clips of a certain gender or clips that are designed to be loop-able.
Categories and Publishers
The home page in the Motion Library features a series of categories that can be browsed through. We also feature certain publishers, for those of you who may be looking for assets from a specific publisher.
Purchasing Assets
Any clip can be purchased while inspecting it in the full preview scene. Simply add it to your cart and complete the order from there.
Please note that a shopping cart can only hold a maximum of 30 assets a time. If more are added without checking out, they will be removed.
Teams Library page
Once assets have been purchased they will automatically be added to your Team Library. In here you can view, inspect and export all of your owned assets.
Importing Assets
*Note: Currently it is only possible to import motion library assets to projects in Rokoko Legacy. If you are using Rokoko Studio, don't worry, you can easily import your assets into other 3rd party programs like Blender or Unreal to work your magic there! Instructions for importing from Rokoko Legacy are below.
You can import a single asset you own directly into any of your existing projects from the thumbnail.
Or from the full preview.
Select multiple clips to automatically import them all at once to a selected project. Note that this can, of course, be done both from the main search view and from within your team library.
If one or more of the selected assets are not owned, you can quickly purchase them while importing.
Please note that when buying an asset from the Motion Library, you download it as an .FBX file containing only the movement on the skeleton. This means that no mesh or characters are included. Some assets come with finger animation as well, which will be shown in the preview and on the tag info in the plugin.
