Well that's good to hear, I just took a gamble and disconnected everything.  Still facing one problem though, and that's having both the P5 Will and Kids 4 in the same scene. Just tried that and even though I had already run the VSS that is tweaked for Will, when I ran the other that is for the Kids 4, it also synchronized the Will figure over again, because Will's figure name is currently setup to match with all the other kids for the other VSS setup. 

This gets a bit confusing, but I'm guessing I'll have to change the figure name for Will so it doesn't match the Kids 4 name rule I created.  Also, should I just delete the name rule in Will's VSS?? (see pic)......Is there a way to just change the name, or does it need to be deleted and replaced with something like P5 ?   I'm thinking if I name my figures P5 Will and P5 Penny then the Kids 4 VSS will ignore P5 figures, and the P5 VSS will ignore Kids 4 figures, correct??
