Our project has prop bones set up in our skeleton (eg. RightHandPropBone) and we attach props (eg. Sword) to that prop bone at runtime.

When creating animations with Umotion, it's very useful to be able to attach the actual prop to the prop bone at edit time (in this example, parenting Sword to RightHandPropBone) so that we can animate RightHandPropBone with the correct visual in the editor.

However when the sword is attached in this way, UMotion wants to add Sword to the project file the moment I drag the character into the Pose Editor. I don't want to add Sword to the project because it's not actually a bone (it's just a prop parented to a bone). There's also hundreds of props and a dozen characters, so I definitely don't want to add all those props to each of the project files.

How can this be resolved? Thanks!

I'm trying to export an animation with blendshapes as an FBX Binary, but I keep getting a yellow "ignoring component property" error on all the blendshapes in the base layer, everything previews fine, what should I do to fix this? 

I've made edits to the head, thigh and calf rotation in a clip using the Clip Editor.  When I export the clip and apply it to the exact same humanoid game object in a timeline as I used in the Clip Editor, only the head rotation changes show up, and not the thigh and calf rotation changes.  What's gone wrong?

Thanks for your help,

Owen

the struggle is.... i use the universal shooter kit from the unity store, and they use more then one animation in one file 

"SubmachineGun_Animations" file. so i would like to change the animation auto_Shoot and save the changes that i made.

How can i do that ?

ps. extra info:.. the PLAYER that uses this animation will be spawned into the game-scene. !!!

There is a dictionary conflict with the + button at the bottom of the script execution order screen and a umotion key.  This means I can't add new scripts to the script execution order manifest while I have uMotion installed.

I just upgraded uMotion to the latest version (from 1.22p11 to 1.24p01).

I changed some properties in my rig (I disabled the scale property in setup for some transforms).  I set all keys for all properties, then went back into config to re-enable the scale properties (I wanted to see if it just hides the property or outright disables it).  It disabled the property as the transform had keys for position and rotation but not scale.  Satisfied I went back into config and disabled scale again.

When I returned to config mode, all my animation keys were gone.  So I loaded another clip and that too was wiped.  So I checked the others and every clip is blank.

I tried mashing undo, which was able to re-enable the scale properties, but it could not get my animation keys back.  I did not edit the other clips, yet they are also blank.

I tried recovering to a backup.  An old copy wouldn't load (wrong uMotion version), but a more recent backup had a timestamp from before I started working so I loaded it.  Still blank.

I might be able to recover some data by importing my exported clips, but most of my data is now gone.

Is there any way to recover my lost animation work?

I've tried twice.  Unity package manager says I've got 1.24 with no option to update (latest is supposed to be 1.24p01.

I tried deleting the uMotion folder from my project, then installing the update.  It thinks I've got 1.22p11 installed.

I tried closing all uMotion windows, then deleting both the uMotion folder and the uMotion examples folder, then installing the latest again from package manager.  Still says I have 1.22p11.  Package manager says I've got 1.24 downloaded.

Are there other folders I need to clean out manually in Windows explorer before updating?

Hello I noticed That Your asset totally crash unity 2018.4.30 . The only way to turn on project again, was removing Umotion folder

Hello,

Is there a feature like Motion Paths in Blender or Trajectories in 3DSMax？

This feature is very useful. I really hope UMotion has it.

Hi, I'm trying to create a point n click adventure with objects to take and interact with and also interaction with other characters with objects. I would like to have a hint how to create the interactions. The questions are:

1. How to pick up items - If a glass is on table, should I have a connected but pinned glass object or instantiate a new one in the hand when taking takes place or parent the one on table with the hand?
2. Putting the object away - I already have an animation where the character puts object in the back pocket (no matter how big the object is) and I wish to use it - should I have the objects parented to an empty back pocket object and turn then visible and parent them to hand when picked or have them parented in the hand and turn them on after picking them or instantiate them when picking up and parenting to hand?
3. Giving object to another - When giving (or giving like throwing a knife) an object, should I have both characters have the similar object hidden waiting for the exchange or swap the parent of the object to another when interacting? (I assume here the Timeline sync is needed.)

Or do you have some other great idea how to approach my needs?
