help please.. can't get my head around this.. (working in lightwave)

if your walkcycle was created with your model at 0,0,0 and now you want to have your model walk in the x .. how do you translate the info from the cycle to all the new positions?? ... can you save keyframe data relavent to the ubernull and simply go off that??

thanks in advance for any advice:)

[edit] tried to rename thread more proper, couldn't...apologies

i haven't used lightwave before, but 1 solution would be to have all the animated controls under a group node, then animate the forward translation on the group node. you're going to have to adjust your animation so your feet dont slide.
