I've tried a number of different leg configurations and it all seems to either be walking with 2+ legs or hopping with 1!
I guess there has to be limits though or the system would be way too hard to program.

I had basically a single thigh that then branched into two feet. The CC animation system detects one foot and you have a hop; two and it starts walking. Another reason I haven't tried a kangaroo-type creature myself yet. Have seen one or two single legged 'roos, though.<br><br>Anyway...that was red? Looked dark brown to me ;-) Yes, I tried getting a two footed hop going the other night with my small Sparrow Finch. I had basically a single thigh that then branched into two feet.

Anyway…that was red? Looked dark brown to me ;-)

Its sort of the same thing that happens with a lot of eight legged creatures such as the crystal spider.
