Though giving up parametric animation, you could simply copy the geometry of the feet, or bottoms of them, and use them as the deformation objects for the X-Form you mentioned. That way, the foot prints would stay. There are ways areound this, but I know of no scripts to handle such a thing.

There is a plugin called Object Deform v1.0a, available at:

www.maxplugins.de

But you mentioned you already tried one, and I'm guessing that's it. If not, give it a try.

Good Luck!
