problem with hands on changing animations

Hi,

I have a problem with my animation vendor; occasionally after changing poses, my hands will get stuck in a fingers-spread-wide state - I really don't know what I can do differently to stop it, and it doesn't seem to happen with other animation vendors that I've tried; is there some trick I'm missing?

thanks,

Core

afaik hand poses are set at upload. There are a limited posible hand pose options available. 'open left' 'fist right' aso.
A specific animation would sts. have its hand-pos 'baked-in' and as such there is not anything you can do to change that. It has to be done when the bvh is uploaded.
..Further, handposes are not always 'correct' in respect to what is shown and what was chosen at upload.

I think that because the choice of hand position is there, people tend to overuse it even when uploading animations for which it isn't important. This and priority and the fact that some (built-in) animations DON'T change hand position tends to make things interact very strangely at times, and creates at least the illusion (and possibly also the actuality) of unpredictability.
