hello, while the market do have many “dance animations” types all of then are “for single” characters none dance for “couples or pairs” like slow dance, rumba, well you know and others styles which you can dance with someone else instead of “alone” then my request would be "someone release many different types of “dances for couples” with start different types of loops and ending, that would be cool to make some places look more realistic, while i do know which with the “current world” and ideology wars and bla bla bla is become hard to "do stuffs in couples or pairs because everyones hates everyone, at last let’s get some “love” and some couple interactions and starting with dances and maybe more romantics since it so far have only one in the market but could be interesting having more, also more interactions which would be more for peoples interacting with each others like talking, walking while holding hands huging and bla bla bla.

well at last let’s start with some fun which being some dances stuffs lik those:

while i do know it can be a lot complicated making paired dances but still would be awesome.

I completely agree we need couple animations. There are couple animations which are hugging kissing etc but not for dancing. You have two options which i can see. 1. Wait until the markless animation product supports couples animations which might be problematic since occlusion of characters in dance tracking is a big issue. 2. Find games which have dance couple animations and make each character invisible record markerless single mocap and then sequence them in game as two separate animations. Yes i know the licensing legals around that are pretty iffy but it will work!!! Besides you might even find that doing it that way you can interpolate more frames and make the animation even smoother.
