44:29 During the last part where you translate the position from the foot ik's y position to the root's y position, I've done that, however I want it without a cycle. Let's say a character took one step, then hops, or starts fast walking, so it's not a constant walk but dynamically changing. The method you showed me only works for the 1st step my character takes, but as for the 2nd step, copy and pasting those frames always puts my character somewhere else on the y-axis completely different. I've watched other tutorials doing the same thing, but only for cycling an animation. So far I haven't found a solution for dynamic movements, besides using the NLA editor.

@alexonstory

Hey! Good question and point! If you have a character changing speed I would key the root by hand. So when the character starts moving faster key your root to add more speed. Eyeballing it like that works pretty well. Hope that helps!
