Using Mocha Mesh tracking results in Vegas Pro 22

Robbo wrote on 7/29/2025, 5:38 AM

I have Mocha Pro standalone 2025 and can create mask tracking as provided by Mocha training videos " Introduction to Mocha essentials" set of tutorials, lessons 13 + 16, (all free from Boris fx. )

However, I cannot find a way to successfully use /import these tracking results in Vegas Pro 22.

I wanted to do a basic video by using Mocha's mesh tracking on a Tshirt, then add an image on the shirt so it is affected by the mesh track so the image "sticks" to the Tshirt as it moves/wrinkles.

Please note the video has occlusions which have been masked out ( see Lesson 13). My Mocha mesh video performs as expected, just can't add the image successfully. If I try to add an image, it shows on top of the occlusions (arms and shadow), not sticking to the T shirt.

Note. In Mocha, the layers are in the correct order, the Tshirt is the lowest layer.

I cannot find the finer details of how to interact with importing this type of data in Mocha or Vegas tutorials. The usual suspects, AE Fusion etc. seem to be catered for.

It would be appreciated if anyone could direct me to tutorials or instructions to achieve this effect.

There is a forum post with links to lots of excellent BorisFX tutorials about how to use Mocha Vegas in Vegas Pro 21:

... especially:

I understand that not long after the introduction of Mocha Vegas, a connection between Mocha Pro OFX was implemented - but I've not used it myself. However, Mocha Pro OFX is used directly on an event on Vegas Pro's timeline, something which does not occur with Mocha Pro SAL (which I don't have so can't check it out).

Based on the tutorial, if you can't locate in Mocha Pro SAL the link to Vegas Pro as exists in Mocha Vegas/Mocha Pro OFX, you'll likely need to render the Mocha Pro project in Mocha Pro SAL and then import that render into Vegas Pro.

Mocha Pro SAL bundles Mocha Pro OFX, which can import the tracking data from SAL (Mocha Vegas does not support many advanced features, such as mesh tracking). But then you might as well do the tracking in Vegas using the OFX
