>> The VPM format was setup by Viewpoint and is fixed in the number and type of nodes used. Did your motion come from BioVision? If not, we will need to see a file to figure out how to load the motion. It may work in one of the other eight formats.<< Keith, thanks for the reply. Yes, my motions came from BioVision but I had them add in double the normal number of nodes. The extra nodes were necessary due to complexity and high degree of control that I need. I have successfully re-written some of the VPM motion files into an AOA format with a few Word Perfect Macros and after I get a few animations cranked out I will write an executable to do the job automatically. If everything works out then some of the animations will be included in the BioVision spot on Good Morning America next week. Check your BBS for a copy of my file. You will see the original puppet that was created with the VPM format, but not the new converted AOA. Roy Baker.
