Question by TesseractWolf · Jul 29, 2015 at 05:48 PM · animationanimatorcontrollerspider

Animation doesn't work when set up in Animation Controller

I'm a relatively new user, currently doing a solo project for college in Unity.

I've been following Survival Shooter tutorial (http://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/projects/survival-shooter-project).

Among other things, I've tried setting up my own enemies. One of those is a free asset from Asset store, as seen here: https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/en/#!/content/11869

Problem is, I've tried setting up its animations the way it was set up in the tutorial, but the animations does not work for some reason.

I create an Animator Controller, set up parameters and states, but it still doesn't work. The spider just remains in its Idle state

Here's a screenshot of some of the mentioned stuff: http://prntscr.com/7yfa9d

What am I missing?

If it matters, at first I got message that I can't use those animations because they are Legacy or something, so I went and Copy-pasted spider model within the folder. After Spider - Copy was automatically imported in project, I used animations from that to assign to Animator Controller and then it worked.

Yup, that worked. Also had to put animations to loop under Animation tab on .fbx

Thanks, you saved me a lot of trouble!
