Animation Rigging integration

Hi! 
First of all, thanks for your amazing work! I really love UMotion.

I've got a question - is it possible to sync/trigger the Animation Rigging while working in the editor? I have a character with a humanoid rig that has additional exoskeleton arms that are being driven by the Animation Rigging package. It would be awesome if I could preview the combined output while animating in UMotion. I've seen somewhere that something similar was possible for FinalIK, but haven't found anything related to Animation Rigging itself.

UMotion Version:
1.27
Unity Version:
2020.3.21f1

Hi,

thank you very much for your support request.

Unfortunately there is currently no official support for animation rigging yet. But I think it might be possible to manually trigger the evaluation of the animation rigging using UMotion's callback system.

Write a script that implements a UMotion callback (as described in the link above). This callback method is then called every time UMotion updates the pose of your character. After that, trigger the re-evaluation of the animation rigging. You might have to do a bit of an internet search on how to exactly do that.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you're able to get this working.


Best regards,
Peter
