I'm trying to make a character fall... i have the first frame of it getting hit, and i set the last frame as the lying down pose i want... but whichever one i set last then becomes the entire animation and it's still. so how would i go about making my character fall to the ground? much thanks in advance to all who help!

Are you setting the key fames for your first frame and last frame? If you look to the bottom right of the Poser interface, you'll see what looks like VCR controls. There should be a plus (+) and minus (-) these buttons set and remove key frames. On your first frame, press the plus and the move the shuttle to your last frame, set your pose and the press the plus again. This should get the results your looking for. ~ brent ~

thought i was... i'll try again...

damn... my poser works funny... on the THIRD try it worked... not to mention some files weren't reading before...

Perhaps you have Skip Frames checked on, which is Poser's default -- go to the Animation menu and make sure it is unchecked.
