Unfold animation cycle

Unfold static Walk/run cycle along defined path.

---

Description

sequencial set of tools:

• Fix character on curve
• Fit the curve on a ground object
• Animate the path (use key marked as 'EXTREME' type on selected foot pose bone)
• Define speed and adjust
• Expand anim cycle and step curve animation
• Pin feet on ground (use contact keys marked as 'EXTREME' for each feets)

TODO :

• create nurb path instead of curve
• align curve to root ?
• Smoothing keys after last freezed to avoid too much gap "pose click".

Where ?
