    Unhappy Animating a Biped's Footsteps Along a Path?

    Is creating footsteps along a path possible? Am I overlooking something that does this? I can create multiple footsteps, but they're in a straight line? It seems that, unless it's an even bend, you have to manually place each step that isnbn't on that straight line...

    Thanks!

    I haven't tried this yet but you could give it a whirl.

    Ah, that looks pretty good, but I'm wondering if the footsteps follow the path, or if it just drags the biped around, which can be done by linking a dummy to the biped and using a path constraint on the dummy...

    I'll try it tonight and see if it works. I've gotten around it for now by creating a few footsteps, bending them, then creating a few more, bending them, etc.
