Animate a Walk Turn

csteell_c2893e4ab6

Is there a tutorial or can someone give me assistance in making a G8 figure walk a short distance and turn and walk away? I have downloaded and purchased just about every animated walk figure that I could find but they either circle too wide or turn too long! Any help is appreciated. Cheers

This has been such an incredibly frustrating thing I've found as well. You're going to have to film yourself doing the motion you want as reference (or find it in a TV show or movie), bring the character in Daz with Diffeo and use Simple IK or Maya with the Daz to Maya Bridge, use the reference and animate it yourself and bring the keys back into Daz to apply to your character there. Or sometimes, and this is very difficult and more time consuming than animating it yourself in Blender, have a walk cycle that is walking in place and try to move the character in the arc you want while keeping the feet on the floor and making it not look robotic. I did it once but it took so long to get right. I wish you all the luck.

Hi ,

Is this close to the walk & turn you are seeking for G8?
