  • Limb IK and Walking deal with shoulder tags differently. You shouldn't notice a big difference where you put the shoulder tags for walk, but they're a bigger deal for Limb IK. The latest video I linked to shows the most updated info.
  • I've never used a MIDI app, but I have used a MIDI keyboard and other devices to control CH triggers.
  • When you dynamic link a CH project into PR or AE, everything will come over as a single piece of footage. So you can think of dynamic link like it's bringing over a flat video of your scene with transparency (if applicable).

I fixed the stick and its still doing it

I noticed that it moves perfectly when i scrub back without refreshing the scene...but when i refresh the scene and press play the hand goes back to rotating slow...idk why...i have limb IK on my puppet. Check out the video.


I see this occasionally but never worked out quite why. In my case if the hand was twisted relative to the default puppet pose it could happen.

 

I notice the green dot out beyond the dragger. I think it is something to do with the relative placement of things. You could try moving things a bit to see if it helps. Eg I would try the forearm stick longer to go from elbow to tip of fingers and see if that helps. Othwise move dragger out past the green dot near tip of fingers.

 

if you work out a solution I would love to hear what works.

You might be using the wrong tags. The tags "At Rest" and "Moving Right" are not used for walking. See https://youtu.be/gv_2Upvtm-M for more info about the correct walk tags, like left profile and right profile. If you look at the example character and follow their organization and tagging exactly, it will work.

ok thanks...i watched the video....question...why in one video you tag the body with shoulder tags and hip tags but in another video you tag the arms and legs with the shoulder and hip tags? Can you explain the difference.

(My guess is if arms are independent the shoulder tags must be on the body, but if not independent then it does not matter)
