Exported animation has way more keyframes

Hi,

I've just imported this animation called ArmStretching:

It looks good in uMotion, has about the same keyframes:

But upon exporting theres a heap more keyframes added and the file size has quadrupled:

UMotion Version:
1.25

Hi,

thank you very much for your support request.

You're probably using the humanoid animation format which requires re-sampling of the animation on import and export. Only the "generic" animation format can be edited directly. Úsually, the re-sampling has no negative impact (it slightly increases the amount of memory used but if you export to *.FBX instead of *.anim, unity can optimize the data to get back to about the same size as the original animation).

For more information about import/export, you might want to check out the "import/export" chapter in the manual. You might also want to check out the FAQ in the manual, it answers some commonly asked questions related to import/export.

If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.

Best regards,
Peter
