**Here is a small animation I made in Poser 6 with the walk designer and the Sixus1 Grey Alien and the cute alien Ralph from the3dzone.  I have noticed when using the Grey Alien with the walk designer or bvh files that the fingers distort horribly.  I would like to get the Sixus1 Grey Alien to boogie on down to some bvh dance files, but the fingers distort quite badly.  Is there a fix?  Will I have to zero out the finger joints for every single frame of a 300 frame bvh animation?  Note that this animation here has minimal distortion because I used rather mild settings in the walk designer.  BTW I love each of these aliens and plan on using them alot.

Cool Dan!

Enough screwing around now, get back to work!

Thanks Joe.

The walk designer poses were designed specifically for figures other the Grey.  The joint parameters for its fingers probably vary a bit from the norm.

You need not zero the fingers for every frame.  You can simply delete all the finger keyframes at once, using the animation palette, then manually pose the fingers at key points along the timeline.  When you're done, save a pose (fingers only) to the library for future use.

Thank you Little_Dragon!  You have saved me much work.  I am assuming that the same technique works on bvh animations as well?

Yes.

I'd have suggested locking the hands or fingers, also, but Poser doesn't seem to obey locks nearly as well as one would expect.
