I feel like I must be missing something.  Auxiliary effectors no longer plot when you plot the control rig, and if I parent them to another object the limb no longer follows the Aux Effector at all.  These 2 things render them practically useless since all we ever use them for at EA is multi-character interaction or character-weapon interaction.  The main issue is we also use them at run-time, so these relationships are vital to be able to properly setup in MotionBuilder.

Is there some magic trick hidden in the properties somewhere (like having to turn off align control rig every time you characterize someone?) in order to get them to start behaving LIKE effector Auxiliaries always have?  Any help would be appreciated.  Currently we have gone back to MB7.5ext2 to deal with this problem, but seems like the sort of thing Autodesk would have caught before shipping.
