There was a thread a while back about joining animations in Poser.I have three sequences two at 50 frames and one at 72.I would like to make one sequence with all three.I remember someone said to leave a blank frame between sequences but this doesn't seem to work.Any help appreciated. Cheers arrow1

Sometimes it just takes some fiddling. Ideally, the break points should be still points in the whole animation, where everything is "naturally" static. If you break when something is moving, the join will almost always look wrong. (A steady linear movement is OK, but most moves in Poser are not steady linear movements!) Here's what I do, which may or may not help you: When the first PZ3 reaches a good "still point", I save it, then take these steps: 1. Move to last frame 2. Memorize All 3. Set framecount to 1 4. Restore All 5. Save this as the starting point for next PZ3. After the stages are done, I render each, then join them externally using an AVI editor. Trying to rejoin the PZ3's into one big PZ3 is probably not a good idea, nor is it really necessary; you're bound to get spline trouble that way!

If you need to join animations rather than splice the avi files try this. Having the end-frame of one sequence and the start-frame of the next sequence adjacent is going to give you trouble unless the poses are identical. Spline interpolation between keyframes messes things up. Set them a few frames apart (maybe 10) and see what happens. You can set and delete keyframes to smooth out the movements.
