[Opensim-users] Open Source Male Walk Animation for OpenSim?

Sun Oct 11 22:00:52 UTC 2009

I just tried some in Daz 3D and although they open, I think the conversion process needs work (unless you want all your avatars to walk like zombies)

Fun, though wish I hadn't downloaded quite so many before trying it! :)

Yeah I tried these but to no avail. They won't even load in QAVimator and
they come in the Hippo viewer but do not actually do anything.
