Actually, Jonas, my problems (and priorities) have shifted quite a bit. While I still think I don't understand why deleting all keys affects the situation, it turned out I didn't need to do that (I just delete the position keys now using the Deletetracks command). My problem now is probably a whole lot easier to solve — just frustrating for me. After getting my script to correctly work, I can't seem to get IK to work with it. I wrote the script so that you can simply define a path, curved, straight, whatever, and then it will take two dummy objects and create a "walk" that follows the path with the specified number of steps and step height. I need to polish it for the body bob, hip movement, etc., but for right now it correctly creates the path I want. However, I probably don't understand IK (although I thought I did and I worked through the tutorials) because my legs aren't solving properly, but looking rather spastic. I have to admit I haven't played with it much (just got the path generation working correctly tonight after dredging up the parabola formula) but it's very frustrating. Perhaps I'll import Randy and see if I can't get him walking correctly. Anyway, thanks for your help. I'll post my script when I get all the bells and whistles.
