Quote - > Quote - If we are going to have a WW compatible version of Antonia, and I'm not saying we should, why not bight the bullet, and make hip (former hip2) a real hip, the child of the BODY. Would that not solve some of the main problems associated with applying stock poses? It would also be less confusing for users, and fix "the current naming of the hip and hip2 actors just makes no sense whatsoever" problem.

Wouldn't that snafu the whole point of having the extra actor?  The hip2 provides extra posing capability for the thighs.  By making it the child of BODY, the extra actor is moved to the other side of the torso chain, where the extra poseability isn't as helpful. 

Exactamente! Changing the hierarchy is absolutely not an option.

Regarding the walk cycle, that's really hard to tell from two seconds of video. So I readily admit that I may have been wrong about that. I have no clue how walk designer works and if one could make real use of the hip2 actor without renaming it.

@fivecat: which data are you basing your statement about correctness of walk cycles on?
