About this sample
The sample calculates the world transform of every avatar bone from its animation, bind pose and parent. A baseball bat uses the transform of the right-hand SpecialRight bone with the original small position and rotation offset.
Compare Stand, Celebrate, Clap and Stand 5 while the bat follows the hand. The fingers continue animating and do not grip the bat, as in the original. You can orbit the camera or create another random avatar.
