Question

walk cycle previewing profiles

I have created a walk cycle for a character using the profile view in the tags, i.e frontal/left profile/right profile. It works using the trigger left and right arrows. I am now starting to try to review the profiles as they walk to fine tune them, parts are broken

Start of My question: (walk behaviour panel/trigger using left and right arrow keys) currently to review the front view, I select the front view in the rig panel and in the record/scene panel I can see the character... and i can adjust the rig live to see the changes. Nice!

(walk behaviour panel/trigger using left and right arrow keys) If I select the left or right profile walk I don't see the left or right walk in the record/scene panel. I see a blank screen, this is because the front view has been deselected to view the left/right profiles. On triggering the left/right keys i get to see the view I want, of course.

If I select immediate walking cycle in the behaviour panel I get to see one of the profiles – it appears you can't determine which view it is... I have switching the layers in the puppet view to see if this is the rationale. Is there a way to change this default? It would be useful to know...

    Hi

    Rule of thumb:

    1- All profiles must be under main layer.

    2- Walking behavior must be applied to this layer.

    3- You must show the frontal profile and hide the others.

    4- There must be no swap sets for the profiles.

    I think you have a problem in #3 or #4 so please check then tell me.

    Sorry, I'm not quite following. Could you attach a link to your puppet (File > Export > Puppet...) that shows the problem?
