The character model that I'm working with is using a naming convention that uses slashes to seperate words rather than underscores. When I try to import this model into the pose editor I get a warning message stating that I need to rename the bones. Is there a workaround?

Hi Peter,

Thanks so much for your product and your support.

I was wondering if the Animated Properties could be sorted. For instance, I am trying to animate a soldier with a weapon. I already imported the clip, I just need to adjust the position of the rifle so that it looks normal and does not enter the mesh. For this, I just need to tweak the rifle, and both hand IKs. It would be helpful to either hide other properties, or click and drag the properties to the top so that I do not need to search for the property that I need to adjust every time I tweak one property and go to the next. But when you have 30 different bones you need to scroll through, it can be time consuming.

Please let me know if that is already an option. I have tried hiding the bones in the Rig Hierarchy but they still show up in the Animated Properties. 

Thank you

Is it possible to have multiple characters that are all humanoid and rigged the same in a single project then just select the character in the pose editor then select any of the animations in the clip editor for the animation one wants?

My thinking is if all the characters are the same then I should able to just switch the clips around.

I have a vehicle object. I made simple animation for translation and rotation. Then, I exported the animation as FBX. Then, this warning pops up resulting in my exported animation only move in place.

Hi Peter,

I was wondering why the arms are not in the motion slider menu like all the other parts are?

Thank you for a great product.

Hello,

I’m a Unity developer at Centre for Bionics and Pain Research (Sweden).

We have a system where we (trough Machine Learning) detect actual arm/hand-movements of a user, and then use Unity to mimic these movements with a 3D arm.

Currently, we have developed this system with advanced scripting. Now, we seek to migrate to a system where we have each possible movement (Open Hand, Close Hand, Flex Hand, Extend Hand, Flex Elbow, Extend Elbow etc.) defined as Animation Clips.

Our problem is that the user shall be able to interpolate between these positions freely, with all possible positions of an actual arm/hand. For example:

1. The user closes the hand 30%
2. The user flex the hand 50%
3. The user extends the elbow 20%
4. The user close the hand fully (100%)
5. The user flex the elbow 40 %

Would it be possible to use UMotion for such a use case?

I believe we require a system where one can start and stop playing an animation clip at any given keyframe, as well as interpolating between clips.

Should one download random animation from Mixamo, then import the animation to umotion, finally export it without changing anything, one can find that the animation size is almost 2x larger. Could you please tell me the reason and how to further decrease the animation size? I tried to deleting some 50% of the keyframes, but the size is still the same.

Please look at the video. Already re-import. It works for sometime, but the error went back again

Hello there! I use keyboard shortcuts often, but it'd be nice to have a shortcut sheet or a list of all default shortcuts. I tried to find it to no avail. Do we have that somewhere?
