Adaptation: Idle, Walk and Run were sampled in Blender and retargeted to the existing MakeHuman gunman-1 skeleton. Original face, outfit, hand pose, pistol and Fire clip retained. Lower limbs follow captured joint directions; foot orientation and pelvis motion retained; chest rotation transferred with bounded aim yaw. In-place root movement, source foot-clearance matching, loop-end blending and 30 Hz baking are applied. This is an adapted locomotion demonstration, not a newly recorded two-handed pistol mocap session.

Only assets/characters/mocap-motion.glb (animation/bones, no meshes/textures) is embedded into desktop/mobile game builds. The source asset and comparison .blend are development references, not shipped in dist.

After acceptance of the first-enemy pilot, the shared locomotion now applies to all three civilian variants, the marksman and the armored boss across all levels. A separate comparison at blender/characters/mocap/review.html shows old/new movement at the same world speed, with walk/run, slow-motion and viewpoint controls.
