Yo, when I'm animating, I've aligned the pivot point of the knee to a cylinder I made that will control the movement of the knee itself.

The knee has been linked to the cylinder as well, so whatever the cylinder does, the knee responds accordingly.

But when I try animating 5 frames, it rotates around in a weird circle, when in fact all I wanted it to do was rotate forward, not in a circle. Any thoughts?

If you're using MAX, can you post it up? Sounds like it's a gimbal issue.

Check that out.

As you can see, it rotates around in a circle instead of going straight like it should.
