Another problem and piece of puzzle is that tutorials from couple months ago are not working any more.. there are changes made in APEX nodes and just get stuck with non working part and can't continue. Someone with in-depth knowledge that is fin, can probably work around the issue. For regular animator joe.. not so easy

APEX is still young and it is for riggers. But there is big population of people that don't wanna or don't care about being in-depth rigger. Just need wokring rig and move on to animation something that solves 80-90% of rigging needs. Like mgear in maya or those rigging addons in Blender.
For more complex rigging needs can always try to hire someone, but for most of the needs something simple like those would be more then enough. Saving time and money and allowing more people jump into animation instead of chasing unknown rigging nodes.

Is there simple straight forward way to get mocaps on to APEX control rigs?
Simple and straight forward is not spending 30 minutes per setup following tutorial using bunch of nodes that will or will not sue in case of your rig?
There are two tutorials I've found not a single one I managed to get to work...

Is it really impossible to create tool in Houdini that will ease pain and make this process straight forward and without need to be both animation and rigger but to enable simple animators to get tot work as soon as possible?
Makes sense ?

So couple time so far jsut at random while working on part of some cloth sim I hve on cahracter \I see my cloth jsut starts falling down.. going back to apex animate I see this mess. Why? What happens?
Only solution so far is loading backup from earlier... which is not ideal at all
