i wanna figure it out :>>

This shall be my primary goal

Athena Tasks:

Larger Model Tasks

:white_check_mark: Retopologize as needed for bends, try to lower poly count if possible :white_check_mark: Add Bones and test the bends :middle_finger: Weight Paint :heavy_check_mark: [stretch] animate a walking movement :middle_finger: fucking redo the bones holy shit bruh

Fix Fucked Up Parts of the Model

:white_check_mark: The crotch :white_check_mark: The Head :white_check_mark: The Hands :white_check_mark: Hat doesn't connect :face_holding_back_tears: (stopped being a problem) :white_check_mark: I am actively avoiding why the edges of the hat looks like that :white_check_mark: Shorter Neck

here is the drive link to the FBX animations created by mixamo from the model I made to use for the playtest. I fully intend on this being a temporary animation, and more a just for time solution

For those who want to learn more about the site I have a link here! You can create a free adobe account to use it.

HAHAHA I GOT IT GOING

oKAY here's how I did it: also a youtube video that helped lol

What you need in the project file: (when using mixamo at least)

• A base t-pose file
• All separate animation files

For all of the above files, make sure that in the inspector settings of these files, under the rig category it is applied as a humanoid object. Only from the t-pose variant do you need to create an avatar.

To Start:

• Place the base t-pose file into the scene
• create a animator controller
• on the player game object, add an animator component and plug the created avatar and animator controller into their respective slots.

To Animate:

• open the animator controller, have the idle animation be the root of the tree, and drag in any other animation afterwards.
• the parameters are going to be your switch transition cases, for here I am using a boolean walking parameter and switching it on and off. If the length of the vector is greater than 0.01 it'll begin the walking animation.

Other Important Toggles:

• On each animation toggle "Loop" on so it will continue looping
• If you want the input to be immediately responsive make sure "Has Exit Time" is off, in the transition menu. If this is on, it will wait for the animation to finish before starting the next one.
