hi

I have a problem with a snake animation. It was not easy for me to create this animation (with joints). In fragmotion it's looking okay. But the result is really disappointing. The situation where the snake is straight/ lined-out I have not created. So it looks totally unnatural. Where is my fault?

It needs to be far more s curved. I did a search on snake locomotion and found this.

It's a great top down picture for different types of snake locomotion. Hope this helps.

but it clearly plays differently in gameguru, the animation in the first part is more of a ripple (as it should be) and the GG animation is just back and forth type movement... weird, i'm afraid i cant help though.

Is it that when in GG you have the animation frames running/looping past a '0' default pose of the snake being straight? Probably not, was just a thought.
