need a tip

im trying to make an animation where the avatar suspends him/herself upside down from a bar and does situps. but im using a script that requires the animation to actually be upside down (because it uses multiple animations and i want the av to do chin-ups too)

any tips? when i do the pose/animation. SL doesnt like the bvh it spits out at the end. it wont initialize.

just curious if anyone can suggest anything i think i might be moving the COA off place..

Hmm, does frame 1 of your animation contain the default "T-shaped" pose for a SL avatar? If you download the SL Avatars from this website, I think you'll find that their frame 1 is in th proper position. Frame 2 and on can be whatever you like.

As for positioning, be sure you don't ever animate the "body' of your figure. SL doesn't read changes to body position, and it will only mess things up if you try to animate the body. I turn off the 'figure circle' to avoid inadvertently selecting the body.

i dont have the SL models. ill have to get them. thank you very much for the tip ill have to try it

Hiya, the actual page where they can be downloaded from is down, so here is the direct link:
