Posts: 6 		Hello, I have the free version and am hoping to upgrade to a pro version soon but I am having difficulty with one aspect of the software.

I have a character that does some temper gestures, then walks across the room and then gets into a fighting stance with dialogue. Everything works well EXCEPT when I play the animation back, my character won't walk. He'll kinda, freeze in his original place but the other characters will continue their action.

If I pause the timeline and hit play again, it will update and he'll pop in where he SHOULD be. This wouldn't be such a big deal however it does this when I render out a final video.

I have a Lenovo Y500 laptop with dual Nvidia Geforce 650 cards. Graphically it should have no problem handling that. What can I do to fix this?

Thank you.

This problem keep cropping up, but there is no known cause.
Did you use a set made in a version before the update?

I also have this problem and am eager to find the source of this chaos.

Yup I had the same with a Super Hero flying and landing in the wrong place, when I moved his start point slightly to fix it he stopped flying and just popped to the landing position. I'm fairly sure I had already adjusted it once and it worked fine but second time no go.

Has anyone figured out a workaround yet or do you pretty much just have to set up your walking paths again?

I have tried several times to send a report ticket, every time I hit "Submit" I get the "Sorry, your ticket could be opened right now. Please try again later" message. Been getting that for several days.

Anyway, I sent a ticket about you not being able to send a ticket.

Thanks for bringing the broken customer support form to our attention, we'll get that fixed as soon as possible. In the mean time can you send a email to support@digimania.com with the set file you have the problem in? Does this happen for new characters you add or only one character in the scene?

Direct, don't animate!

This is after:


I'm not sure of the cause, but the second is after importing objects and animating more movement.

Not yet, I'm afraid. This is the number one bug in Muvizu, yet the staff have gone quiet about it.

fair warning sometimes there are other bugs in the internal build
