Animate 2 Characters in 1 Clip?

Cr4shBarcode 3 years ago updated by Peter - Soxware Developer 3 years ago 1

I want to combine 2 characters into 1 animation clip, both using separate imported animation clips. I’m trying to make one solid animation for when the Player collides with the Enemy and gets attacked. It’s been really difficult to line up the timing for the connecting blows when each clip is separate. I was hoping there was a way to have two characters, and two separate imported clips made into one master clip.

Hi,
thank you very much for your support request.

That's exactly what Unity Timeline is for (it allows you to combine multiple characters/animations, even sound, etc. into one "uber" animation sequence).


I recommend creating a new Unity Timeline sequence that animates both your characters. Then use UMotion's Timeline integration to adjust the animations as required. Here is a quick video showing UMotion's Timeline integration in action (for more details, please checkout the manual's "Unity Timeline Integration" chapter):

Please let me know in case you have any follow-up questions.

Best regards,

Peter
