Every time I try a dance pad, I end up sitting in thin air, with my upper body and arms flailing about, but nothing happening below the waist.

I have no animations or anim overrides running as far as I know.

I'm right-clicking and selecting 'camp'. I can still earn from the pad, I just look stupid doing it.

This is on all pads, and every day, so its my av's problem, not the game's.

Any ideas anyone ??

heh i used to see this alot on my friends, you wearing any ao/attachment with anim running , could be that, right click yourself deattach everything, and try if it stopped its that.

Some poseballs can ask for permition to animate you, and when you get off them it wont stop (very rare nowadays)

I'll bet you're wearing shoes with a pose built in, and that pose is a high priority animation.

Does it really matter? If you're in a camping hole you're not at your computer to see your avatar anyway.

I CAN dance!

Thanks Thili, (..you're not ath thili ath you thound)

I detached everything then reattached one by one. The culprit was the freebie matrix sunglasses 2004, though I have no idea why. If I wear em to dance, I sit. Wierd.

Still, at least now I'm strutting my stuff.

Thanks again,

Kendo
