New CrazyTalk Animator 2 user here on a mac. I created my own actor, applied a script, tweaked the lip syncing and now I want to add facial expressions from the template folder or my custom folder. When I do it deletes everything, script sound, and lip syncs from that frame forward.  I am able to record a facial animation from the face puppet directly into the timeline  and will do that for now but I would like to be able to use or reuse animations from folders.

Hi... There are three types of animation data found under the Animations tab in Content Manager.

"Motion" contains animation data for the body and won't affect the face. "Face" can contain voice and expression data. "Perform" data contains Motion and Face (voice + expression). So applying a clip from Perform or Face will overwrite your existing voice. However you can apply a saved facial expression clip first and then apply the voice clip afterwards.

Please see the Manual page HERE for more information on this.
