Here is my problem. I am trying to create a static pose that when you walk the avatar just "glides" along the ground. I have the pose and it looks good, however when I walk the avatar "bobs along" as if walking. The pose stays but the avatar moves up and down slightly as if walking. I am using poser 5 at the moment. Any help is apprecated.

Be sure you adjusted the position of the hip some small amount between frames 1 and 2, and make sure you uploaded the animation at a priority sufficiently high that it completely overrides the default walking animation.

Yeah, do make sure you have adjusted the hips. The up and down bob is from the hip motion of the default walk, so you need to make sure your animation is covering that up.

Yes I assumed the "bob" was due to the default walk but I had high priority so assumed that was enough. And I had moved everything else between frames 1 and 2 EXCEPT hips (not realizing this was required as well), so that must be the issue. Thanks! I will give that a try when the grid open.
