Sit VS. Stand preview and results

Hi all- Here is my issue. I am building a sit animation. It looks fine when imported and previewed as "stand". If it is previewed as "sit" then it looks like a strange hybrid of my animation plus the default SL "sit" animation.

If I upload it and play in world to preview, it looks right. However, when it is placed in an AO, it looks like it did when I previewed it as "sit", all wrong.

So the question is, what am I doing wrong? How does one create a sit animation that SL doesn't try to over-ride?

FYI: I am using a T-pose as my first frame, so that is not the issue.

Thanks

I suspect its something to do with priorities. Default SL avatar sit animation is priority 4. To override it you need to upload your own sit animation as priority 4 (set as an option in the sl animation upload window)

moving every joint in the second frame

doesnt need to move much just one point s/l ignores anything that isnt moved if you want full control of the animation you need to move every joint just a little and set the upload priority to 4

thats what i have found to be the problem

so when i start a new animation first frame is t-pose second frame is every joint moved one point third frame is where i start my animation
