Convert Clip From Trax Back To Keys

[3dsteve]

Hi I have made a walk cycle and created a clip from it. I then imported the clip into another character set and would like to bake or convert the keys to the new character set and re animate areas i.e. his arms.
I could manually copy frame by frame the keys by moving the trax editor clip to start at frame 26 and use the middle mouse hold to copy the keys but is there a way that maya can convert the keys automatically.

cheers

PS im using maya 2008 64

Yes. It is data after all, its no less work offourse possibly easier to use in conjunction with a script, tough theres no real point you can jsut keep them in clip and still see them for edit.

Just a question tough is there just that one clip or are you blending and appending a lot fo clips together? It you are its gets a bit more convoluted.

Hi thanks for getting back to me.
Im using one clip only. Its a simple walk cycle, I want to apply the walk cycle to another character who is much bigger and bulkier but need to tweak the animations to fit onto the new character.

cheers
