Too late, I decided to do it manually.
I had also problems with bones.
And I am not telling you about the many anomalies with Instances and the
many objects that have moved or distorted by themselves without me doing
anything.
RS behavior is so unpredictable, it's difficult to plan a deadline for
commercial project.
But theses problems have been there since version4-5-6 windows.
Every times I want to do something I have to ask on the list how to do
it because it's not working as it should.
So I am not using choregraphy with an animated controller and I am no
using bones either.
It's sad that so many RS users are asking for new features while the
basic functions are still not working as they should.
RS8 could have half the features of RS7 but half fully working and I
would be happy.
Am I the only one actually using RS (flame bait : )? Why are you not
asking for the features already there to be more reliable or actually
working?
Did I told you about the Japanese 3D animation software Shade by
expression tools now www.e-frontier.co.jp ?
In 5 years of use, it only bug/crashed once. Was not the most feature
packed software, but it was working as expected and the features were
working always every times.
This was the last time I animate with RS, after that I will use my own
software.
I did not trust CombadZ yet for that project with a short deadline 2-3
weeks for 3 minutes.
I am disappointed that my last experience with RS for animation was a
nightmare.
I expected it to be like a goodbye kiss, instead it felt more like a
kick in the balls.

Dunno about channels and stuff ... but have often found fade to be
flakey in anims. I dont use it there much any more but it's a totally

Hi Martin..
Custom channels are not showing up at all in the chor win, at least
not in
the Input Tabs Attributes list...
So I guess they cant be used.
Take Care

Have you tried outputing fade to a custom channel and then using this
channel instead of the original fade channel?
I have no clue if this could work, but perhaps it will?

It does not work.
Fade cannot be used as a driver for a choreography. Why?
