    which rabbit?
    depending on the figure some can have nodes renamed using bone editor to use motions for other figures

    Hi
    I am making a video using puppeteer for you using Lynes Rabbits
    I do not have Noggins
    Lynes is free from here http://www.lynescreations.com/lynesfree4.htm
    what I do in the video should work for Noggins rabbit too but more bunnies is always a good thing
    Lyne has lots of freebies here http://www.lynescreations.com/lynesfree.htm

    after recording with puppeteer which creates keyframes for the bones you move along the timeline,
    (you will see little triangles for each bone, use advanced timeline view under edit windows)
    you can use x and z translate on the whole bunny to change his position along the timeline
    it will make keyframes for those moves, you have to judge for yourself how far to move him.

    sorry I cannot

    this will NOT work in smart content


    the zip contents runtime unzipped should be merged with your runtime folder
    under Poser formats it should appear in Poses
    look at some of the threads on using Poser content in Daz studio

    I cannot do it for you
    I cannot redistribute files that are not mine
    inc the poses made into an aniblock or puppeteer animation
    I am not skilled enough to do it withought using the poses.
    I am trying to explain how to do it as best as I can, I wish somebody else would post to this thread and help more.
    I am very sorry.

    the best I could do maybe is make a video, animated gif or image series of a rabbit for you.
    image series can be png with an alpha so you can put it in a video editor to composite into your scene
    cinegobs keyer is a free one you can use.

    There is only one method in DAZ Studio to do a Animal walking on all fours properly. That is to key frame each part of the figure one part at a time on the timeline. You will want to do this so it starts and ends on the same pose for a LOOP, You then move the figure on the Hip or main Node of the figure on the Z translate in the Paramaters tab. You then save that out as a File to apply to the figure to be used again in the future. There is no short simple way to do this.

    If you need it easy and already done then you will need to hunt other content sites that sell Animal Animation files in Poser or another format that DAZ Studio supports and buy that one animation file you need.
