So I'm trying to animate a treadmill in max 8, I set it on a path, and it automatically has it cycle through the path, however I have the treadmill being pulled by gear teeth, and the problem is the treadmill is running just a little too fast to make it appear the teeth are pulling it. Is there anyway to just adjust the path speed of the animation? Or do I have to go in and re-adjust the whole mess key by key and what not?

Thanks.

    Did you use a path constraint? or did you convert the path to a trajectory?

    If you used a constraint, in the motion panel there is a "% Along Path" spinner you can animate to change the timing.

    If you converted the path to a trajectory then just set the options start and end times before you hit the convert button.
