I am assuming that you want to use a walk path so that you can have your figure move throughout the stage and interact with other figures and props in a predetermined route? The only way I found to do that was using the animation pallete and tweaking the keyframes when I loaded a BVH file. And yeah, the walk designer could use a good reboot.

It's one of the reasons I gave up trying to do animation. For now...

If I had a nickle for ever time a woman told me to get lost, I could buy Manhattan.
