Animation Helper - Valve Biped

Description
Meet Sir Andy Helpington, he loves waterskiing and making your life easier!

Andy is compiled with every single animation contained in Half Life 2.
Mix and match sequences from different HL2 characters and then transfer the motion to your character of choice all at once!. Want to make citizens use that sweet rappelling animation the Combine use? Now you can!
Hundreds of sequences to choose from!

This is intended for use with models rigged to Valve's biped skeleton such as all humanoid characters from HL2, CSS and many custom models.


How to use:

- Create an animation set for mickyan/anim_dummy
- Create an animation set for your model of choice (if you haven't already)
-Right click on anim_dummy in the Animation Set Editor and select Import>Sequence. Choose a sequence to use.
-Select anim_dummy in the Animation Set Editor (check if there's something wrong with the fingers, if there is, you might want to deselect the Fingers tab with ctrl+click)
-Drag the timeline selection to include whatever part of the motion you want to transfer
-Right click on the timeline and select "Copy Samples"
-Select your model of choice in the Animation Set Editor
-Right click on the timeline and select "Paste Samples"
-You're done!

Suggestions? Problems? Let me know in the comments.

Includes:
mickyan\anim_dummy.mdl

I feel absolutely insane, I do everything step by step, except it changes nothing for the model I want to give the samples to. What am I doing wrong??

Nvm, I got it, though had to export the dummy's animation as a DMX animation and then pasted it into the new model.

Every time I try copying a walking animation, its either just the first frame and no movement, or the model still T-poses
