when i was at blur animators used animation layers extensively. there was a lot of pains over the years but we got through a lot of them and they are fixed now. referenced models and animation layers are a bit tricky, if you nest models you are asking for lots of trouble. since the layers themselves are not tracked inside the delta they are a bit mysterious. they are stored with the animation mixer invisibly. once we removed nested models in our referenced models nearly all issues regarding data loss disappeared!
