Ref Poser5 Manual Animate Tutorial page69.

I am able to get the model(s) to walk in place, but when they started to move, they were not displayed rendered, but in the abstract block form.

I tried this with several models both rendered and unrendered. The results was always the same.

I am not trying to make a movie, I just was trying to get the model to walk in place.

Does the model just not walk as a rendered model? If yes, why can't I do it. :-)

Sooooo, when I/you get this hiccup into my head, I will be able to complete my annotated comments on the first three (now four) pages of the Manual's tutorial.

Thanks - Jim

Are you talking about tracking mode?

(three buttons, upper-right corner of the display window)

Try Chapter 24: The Document Window. section: Tracking Mode.

Sounds like you have it set on fast tracking, try setting it to full.

Hi-

Well, thank you Little Dragon & PhilC.
Setting the tracking was the trick. Not mentioned in the tutorial, of course.

I was also able to discover one other requirement which wasn't documented. The correct figure must be chosen. At one point, I had her bikini top walking and the model responding out of sync. When I selected the model,the halter top came into sync.

Thanks to you all, I've successfuly finished the first portion of the Poser5 Tutorial and I can complete my annotated entries for the entry level tutorial.

Thank you. That includes the people who helped me before I asked this question.

Jim
