I posted here but was unsure if it would be seen as the topic is 'Answered'.

Simply put, I need to be able to set blendshapes to non 0-100 values, such as -300 and 300 etc. But I'm working with a mesh that has 800+ blendshapes, and the constraints window in UMotion seems to have a constraint min/max setting for every individual shapekey. I can't edit them all, that would be crazy. Is there a way to adjust the global constraint?

Thanks

Hi there!

I'm having a different result after exporting my animation. The gif below is (oddly) my desired output, and was recorded playing the animation on the Clip Editor

After exporting, and playing it on Unity's Animation Tab, the result is the following:

Thats strange, I'm not rotating legs or the hips on this animation, just the spine bones (the leg bones move slightly, but only for shaking).

Is there something I did not got yet? Thanks, 

I've the same problem just like this.https://support.soxware.com/communities/1/topics/1245-unable-to-select-bones-in-scene-view
When the bone is parented inside collider it will not selectable. But only when the collider is in custom layer.

I tried this with my projects. And I found that when I parent my character bones inside  a character controller if the character controller is set at "Default" layer everything work fine. but when I change the character controller to my "Player" layer. I cannot select any bones inside. Because Unity Character Controller come with default capsule collider. I also tried this with the box collider and it produces same result.

Now my solution is to disable the Character Controller (collider) before animating in Umotion or another way is to create a separate mesh and armature for animating.

I think it would be more convenient if we can animate any armature inside the character controller.

Hey everyone. I'm attempting to use UMotion to fix some character 8-directional strafing animations. So, for example, I have a "walk forward" animation, that I want to turn into a "walk forward-left" animation or "walk 45 degrees left." So, I used Unity's built in animation settings in the inspector to rotate the entire animation 45 degrees to the left. Then, in UMotion, I'm trying to rotate only the torso and everything upwards 45 degrees back to the right. I can do this with the Muscle group sliders, but only for one keyframe at a time. Or, select one of the torso bones, and rotate it... but again, only one keyframe at a time. Because the muscle group slider is only a drag slider (not on the number precise) I can't copy and paste from one keyframe to the next. Does this make sense, what I'm attempting to do? And does anyone know a good work around for this? 

PS: I think this type of thing (creating a 45 degree, walk left-forward, animation from a basic walk forward animation, would make a very useful video tutorial for other users.)

I have some mocap animations that only looks good when the Foot IK is toggled in Unity. And when I import the animation to Umiton it doesn't have the Foot IK active.

Foot IK Active

Foot IK not active

Animation in Umotion

My problem is that I don't know how to replicate this in Umotion. I'm have this activated but it doesn't seem to help.

I'm still pretty noob in Umotion, so I'm not sure if there's any way of doing this automatically as Unity does, or if there's some settings I have to use.

I've been trying with Umotion's IK system but I haven't been able to get the same result.

Thank you.

I have a few questions regarding some of UMotions features in comparison to animating in external software.

1)Is using Umotion to create animations from scratch a good idea? What is the purpose of Umotion besides cutting out the process of exporting the animation from an animation software into the game and then testing it there?

2)Is Umotion mainly used to tweak animations rather than create them? The issue I feel is that by importing the animations from another software you are losing all the IK and modifiers from it, therefore the tweaks must not be drastic.

Some issues I'm having and wondering how I can speed up this process.Is it possible to somehow test the animations at runtime? I have certain VFX and sounds which occur when the animation is triggered as well as physics for hair and clothes. Is there some way to simulate that during editing?

The last question I have is if the previous request isn't possible. How would I be able to quickly resume to editing after testing the animation at runtime? Having to create, export the animation under the same name, test it during runtime, and then having to drag the root object into the pose editor can someones get very tedious. I was wondering if there is any way to cut out some of these steps.

Thank you!

I have a rig in umotion. Before I used the IK wizard I would get the muscle group slider panel. I clicked on the IK wizard and the canceled but the targets are still there and I can not get back to the muscle group slider panel. How do I get rid of the partial IK setup?

I am cleaning up some animations and was looking for a way to set the position values for all selected keys.  I thought it would be as easy as selecting the keys and in the "move tool" window entering 0 for localPosition.x and y and all the keys would be updated to that. But that does not seem to work.

I was thinking of doing an override layer but as far as I understand that would also affect the Z value, which I do not want to change.

Is there any way to batch edit certain values of selected keys?

I've been working with a motion capture setup to record actors' movements. In the latest animation, the actor stands up from a seated position, moves left and right of the chair, then sits back down. When I import the animation file to Unity, the playback is accurate, but needs cleanup. The animation file matches the humanoid rig, as the models/skeletons I'm using are specifically designed for use with Unity's humanoid rig system. The problem is that once I finish cleanup and export the clip as a .anim file, the motion of the animation is far too exaggerated; the actor starts WAY below the center point, and when they stand up they shoot 10 feet in to the air. Slight turns of the body move them a meter in either direction, and walking on either side of the chair actually sends them 20 feet to the side. Is there something that I'm doing wrong with the export process? Or is it something I'm doing in the editing process? It seems like it might be a problem with the root motion but I'm no expert and can't be sure.
