Using walk cycle in max 6

monkeyhead · 04-05-2004, 06:23 AM

Hey there.

I have a problem with character animation (human anatomy) when using bones. I have made a walk cycle so far, but how can I use it, so that my
character walks for a period of time along a path??? And how can I combine several moves? I am using Max 6.
Who can help me?

If you can get or own Character Studio than use it

With the Foot-Step Animation you can easily create your own
walk cycles and add or combine motion clips via motion-mixer.

Another solution for your problem would be to simply path-animate
the node of your character setup and use
"Out-of-Range Types" for the animated tracks to loop them.
