Question by Itstame · Nov 18, 2013 at 04:12 AM · animation2dspritesprites

Animation Must be marked as legacy

I've seen responses to this question for meshes, but I'm asking this question in regards to 2D sprites that are nested.

I have three sprites that I have animated using the animation editor in Unity3D for a 2D game. When I try to play the animation, Unity gives me a warning:

The AnimationClip 'Punch2Carl' used by the Animation component 'Carl_0013_ArmBak1' must be marked as Legacy. UnityEngine.Animation:AddClip(AnimationClip, String)

I am not using a mesh, so I cannot mark the animation as legacy in the inspector. I've tried finding a legacy property for the animation, but I haven't seen it in the properties.

Afterwards, the animation will not play. The animation does play in the animation editor fine.

The setup of the game objects that are all animated (nested): - Sprite - - Sprite - - - Sprite

Any ideas?

$$anonymous$$ine is still greyed out....I cannot copy it, and I am having a lot of trouble co$$anonymous$$g to grips with this...scripting it would be easier for me, but I just want to do a few idle animations for object and keep things as simple as possible. This is more of a "your answer did not work for me" than an actual answer...and I don't want to keep opening up new questions for the same issue.

Fast updated answer: Select the fbx file which contains the animation. Select the Rig tab in the inspector and choose Legacy as Animation Type.
