Hi Seb - Just tried that - went up to 1 even - no go - I think I may have to
replan this, maybe even redo the walk cycle in XSI with the XSI rig I created
originally NOT the funny Maya one!!

Thanks for your help

Sandy

 I forgot to mention, when you use Make Skills, try using higher value for the
Threshold. This value changes the threshold for the detection of contacts point
.

 I have never come across this problem, but If I remember correctly, when you
create a loco skill it tries to find the keys that represent the contact keys.
So if it cannot figure out the contact keys, this error would make sense. You
could try resampling your fcurves to make sure that there is enough keys to
find those contact points.

 Also, you could try to edit your animation to create more "obvious" contact
keys.

 Hi All - anyone know what this means:

 

 'INFO : Failed to find a valid contact key for LeftFoot_1 during the
processing of the walk action source.

 'INFO : Failed to find a valid contact key for RightFoot_1 during the
processing of the walk action source.

 'WARNING : 3000 - Invalid parameter to store in action:

 I Get this when I have created a loop out of a walk cycle, then I try to make
it into a skill and it bombs out with this message!!!

 Thanks

 S.
