Hi Zach,
Actually, I think the female avatar is fine, the problem is with the male avatar. When you load your script the female avatar should appear in your script resources. You should be able to expand it and view all of its bones. I attached a screenshot of what it should look like. For instance, if you want to get the bone for the right upper arm you would do the following:
Code:
female = viz.add('female.cfg')
rightArm = female.getbone('skel_ArmRU')
#lock the bone in order to take manual control
rightArm.lock()
#Perform some rotation on the bone
rightArm.rotate(0,1,0,45)
Let me know of this works for you. Good Luck!
