Watching the tutorial on Actorcore and Blender with AutoImport, everything comes in nicely.  However getting the actor to MOVE through a scene is not straight forward, and even if you manually add some KEYS to SLIDE the actor through the scene it takes away from the realisum.  Am I missing something, how do we get an Actorcore character with walk cycle to actually move through the scene, easily?  Most ArchViz people are not Character Animators, hence why this product might exist and become very usable.

Thanks for any thoughts, or things I've missed. Hoping to be able to use this product and purchase many many models/motions!

Thank you for the comments. 
Based on your short information, I would like to suggest you uncheck the Zero Root Animation box when downloading the animation.  The default setting might just work nicely for you.  Please give it a try and let me know how it goes.  Thank you.

I've tried both checked and unchecked.  The animation when it comes in, sits in one place.  I'll try again, to make sure I did import the correct animation...but so far that didn't seem to do the trick.

Def tested with and without Zero Root checked armature does not move from one spot....therefore manual keying of entire armature would be necessary to have movement through a scene which would have sliding feet unless I keyed every single frame...no good :(

May I ask which motion (name of the motion item) you have used and encountered the issue?  Please provide the info so that I can check it and find out more details.  Thank you for your help on this matter.
