Biped Animation:workbench

[fieliep]

Hey guys!

The last couple of days I've been training myself in animating with 3ds Max and the Biped system. Still there are some issues that I can't solve and searching the internet regarding these problems didn't give me a clear answer...

First off, is it possible to delete a key from -for example- the Z Rotation curve without deleting those on the Rotation X en Y curves in the workbench/curve editor? Same goes for adding keys.

Then, there's a problem with both upper arms of the biped. It seems their movement doesn't respond to any changes that i make in their interpolation in the workbench. If I set the tangens to step, its motion stays lineair, while the workbench shows a stepped curve. It works well with other biped-parts.

I'm currently using a trial version of 3ds Max 9. Thanks in advance, any help is appreciated!

Hey,

I'm not sure if you can delete the key of just one axis as when you key an arm etc, it keys the position of that arm taking into account all axis.

Surely though, using a hand as an example, say you the biped hand to rotate along the x axis without any rotation on the z axis, you could use the curve editor to iron out any changes along the z axis? Basically just scale the curve of the axis you wish to remain the same.

As for your other problem, I haven't been using Max long enough to help I'm afraid.
