Finicky ZHAO-II Converter

So I got a message today from a customer who was trying to convert his AO notecards to the ZHAO II format:

Any ideas how to fix this 9:13] ZHAO-II Notecard Converter: ‘AO - Config 2′ does not appear to be a valid ZHAO animation notecard.

He sent me his notecard and it was definitely a card that the older ZHAO script could read. After some experimenting, I realized that the converter script was having trouble with the first line on the notecard. The script would only convert the notecard if the first line was:

:: [ Walking (also Striding) 1 ] ::

So if you get that error message, try changing the first line of the notecard to that.

    Yeah, my bad… I forgot that older notecards had a different format for the animation slot names. Someone pointed this out to me earlier, but I don’t remember if I ever went back and fixed it.

    Changing the first line in the notecard is a simple fix for this bug.

    I have been using a huddles on my other avi for a long time. I can’t get the new one for this avi to work. I have tried programming in stands to cycle and did the converter thing, but it just won’t work. I end up getting a bunch of stand buttons that I have to push. Please help me.

    Thank you,

    Changing the first line did NOT fix it.
