Have walk cycle but how to make it go foward?

I have a walk cycle of a creature walking one cycle in place. what i wanna do is make him go forward, up, down etc.
Your probably thinking, make him follow a path, but I tried it with a stride bone and couldn’t get it to work. Could you maybe describe the path way better or give another idea to make it look like his is walking and not just gliding.

Thanks

Parent the rig to something (en empty?) and keyframe its position/rotation? Normally walk cycles are for games, or practicing walk styles.

Thank you or replying! so i just do each key frame of him walking and move his body while i go?

You better use walkomatic to create Blender walk like this http://www.vimeo.com/15014056
( you will find walkomatic in forum search )

At the end of the day to ecape from headaches, I got used to key framing everything while coping and pasting poses etc.
I know it takes a while but it gives you the chance to get every little detail you need.

Hadn’t known about walkomatic! I’ll give it a try.

Oh okay thank you, looked on forums and all the had was walkomatics for earlyer version, couldnt find any. I have the 2.49b

You can do it in the NLA… check out this video:
