okies just worked on another model and it seems to work fine on that one,so have gone back and double checked everything again and it all seems fine...I now seem to be able to animate it a very short distance,but not the dstance I need (the length of the leg)...it just won't move when i play the animation. john
Hey Im having some probs animating someone stand up. The centre pivot point(highest point in the heirachy) won't keyframe or animate. It just seems to reset itself to an initial position when I try animateing it. what am I doing wrong and how can I solve this prob? John
Erm have you turned on autokey?, and selected bip01? Becareful not to select the yellow square box (thats the pelvis) around the centre blue piece (you need this bit).
