You know... when I first attempted this with just Mason's tutorial, I had the prob of the feet connected to the thighs as well. Funniest thing happened- I dunno why I did it, but I opened the CR2 again, and eliminated the hair! and all referrences to it. Then the thing came out ok! Also, be sure that when you do the addchild, the new parts are "added" to the alike original, ie suitHip is add childed to the Hip, not the Figure. In the weld, it should be welded to the same part the normal hip is welded to. Another thing to check is to make sure all of your figure numbers match, ie :1 or :2 for the main figure. The added parts need their # changed to :1 or the :2 (whichever it will be). An example- The suit Hip has hip:3 and the main has hip:1. So the new suitHip:3 needs to become suitHip:1. Do a search for all :3 referrences, and make sure they are changed to :1 (or :2, whichever the main figure is).
