called "Atajrubah" , using Unreal Engine 4 and Blender for
modelling,rigging and animation. Part of the technical setup is
implementing root motion in our characters. I've been working with
Jeremy (he worked on Sintel and Tears of Steel previously) and
he's really on the ball with his rig and a great animator. </div>

parented to a root bone but the fbx exporter keeps adding the rig
object as an additional static bone, killing the motion of the
root bone we've set up. UE4 doesn't have the option of selecting
which bone that you want to inherit root motion from, so it
defaults to the first bone in the hierarchy.<br>

<div>I've been wrestling with the FBX exporter for a while now and
have tried redbeard's solution , trying to stop the exporter
from exporting the rig object as an additional parent bone.
However the script fails to export with the modifications that
I've made (granted that my experience is with c++ and the UE4
code base , so no surprise there I guess ).</div>
