Pimp Walk Entrance not working? Fixes for common problems and a free redo
By MimicZip Team · Updated:
Short answer
A failed Pimp Walk Entrance run is refunded automatically, but a finished clip is not redone for free, even if the face drifts or the door looks odd. Every pack includes bonus previews, so check your photo in one before you spend the credit on the full clip.
What comes back and what does not
- Back automatically: a run that ends with an error and no video.
- Not back: a finished clip where the face changes from your photo, the door bends or a second walker appears. This is a result, not a failed render.
- A new run: another photo or option costs 1 credit, and a 10-second retry is among the cheapest on the site.
- Unused packs: refundable within 7 days, see the refund policy.
What to check in the preview before re-running
Make sure the face is recognisable, there is only one walker and nothing is written anywhere. The three fix guides cover the usual misses: the face changes in the walk (guide), the door or the walk looks odd (guide), and a second person or text appears (guide). Previews per pack: 1 ($8.99), 3 ($16.99) and 5 ($25.99).

Pimp Walk Entrance video: why does my face change as the walker comes in, and how do I fix it?
The face drifts when the photo is dark, small or turned away, because the walker leans back and ends in a close-up. Use a sharp, well-lit, front-facing whole-body photo, run a 5-second bonus preview, then make the full video.
Quick fixes
- Pick a photo where the eyes are open and the face is fully visible.
- Use even light, without a strong shadow across the face.
- Start with the default scene and outfit before changing both.
- Keep hair, hats and scarves off the face in the photo.
Why it happens
The walker is small at the door and fills the frame at the end. A sharp photo gives the model a single clean face to keep through both.
Pimp Walk Entrance video: the door or the walk looks odd, what can I do?
A glass door, a second person and a slow low walk are hard for a video model, so the door can bend, the door-holder can change or the walk can speed up. Start with the default scene and outfit, keep the photo plain, and check a 5-second bonus preview.
Quick fixes
- Use a whole-body photo with a clear outline.
- Start with the default burger restaurant and the retro suit.
- Pick the warm shop light: the doorway and the walker show best in even light.
- Run again rather than changing several options at once.
Why it happens
The model has to draw a door, a second person and a long walk, and it redraws all of them every frame. A second run often draws them cleaner.
Pimp Walk Entrance video: a second walker or some text appears, how do I stop it?
There should be one walker and one door-holder at most, and nothing should be written anywhere. A second walker or a stray sign usually comes from a photo with someone else beside you or a printed shirt. Use a photo of one subject, wear plain clothes, and check a 5-second bonus preview.
Quick fixes
- Crop out other people, pets and toys.
- Avoid shirts with printed words or logos.
- Avoid photos with a poster, a sign or a screen behind you.
- Use a plain background.
Why it happens
The model sometimes turns a second face in the photo into a second walker, and printed words on a shirt can be redrawn as a shop sign. A clean photo of one subject avoids both.

How do I avoid paying twice for a bad result?
Run a bonus preview first and fix the photo: one walker, an open face, the whole body visible. Only then spend the credit on the full clip.
Can I get my money back instead?
Only for packs you have not used, within 7 days of buying. Credits that already produced a video stay spent.
Will the same photo give the same result?
Not exactly. Every run differs a little, even with the same photo.
