Could you build this?

Partial The Roblox plugin, R15 retargeting, and FBX export are buildable with AI assistance. Generating good animations from text or video requires motion-generation and pose-estimation models whose output quality is hard to make reliable.

What it would actually take: The pipeline would combine a pose-estimation model such as MediaPipe or a similar tool for video input, and an open text-to-motion model for prompts. The output then needs retargeting to the R15 rig, smoothing, and export to FBX, plus a Roblox Studio plugin. Consistent quality across varied inputs is the hard part and typically requires ML experience and tuning, along with animation knowledge for cleanup.
