Question by Maroquio · Dec 16, 2013 at 11:59 PM · pingpong

Where is Ping Pong mode in Animation Window?

Hi, guys! I was following a Pluralsight tutorial about Unity3D, and I couldn't find where is the Ping Pong mode in animation windows in Unity3D 4.3. Please, help me.

Long 4.3-era discussion here: http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/4-3-0-missing-wrap-mode-dropdown-in-animation-window.212352/

Simplest answer that avoids going through the debug panel or using "legacy" animations seems to be: add the reverse animation manually. :-(

Something got confused between the new (2) and legacy (1) Animation Types.

Here is how I got this working with the Stealth tutorial which doesn't use an AnimationController for the CCTV camera but one appeared when following steps for the tute in U4.6

http://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/projects/stealth/cctv-cameras

To repro:

  • Select animation in Assets

  • Right click Inspector tab and change to Debug

  • Set Animation Type to 1 (this is the Legacy mode - see also http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/577801/animation-must-be-marked-as-legacy.html)

  • Set Wrap Mode to Default in the Asset

  • Select object (e.g. prop_cctvCam_joint) in Hierarchy)

  • Set Wrap Mode to Ping Pong in the Animator Component

Thanks, this helped.

Just to say that you have to remove your animation component (in case you have already attached it) and reattach it to your object after the changes (after step 4). Otherwise there will be no option to change the wrap mode of the animator component.

To access it right click the inspector tab (right above the words AxeIdle in your image), and choose debug. Inside, you will be able to change the wrap mode.

Note, if you wish for the animation to ping pong, and then continue repeating, you have to click loop time.

Bump, followed the same steps, but not seeing the pingpong effect take hold.

Awesome, this worked. Wonder why it's buried like that though.

Click on the model or animation in the asset window. On the right-hand side you will see the options for the asset, and you can specify the wrap mode to be ping pong.

Bump, not seeing this either. Is this a pro version only feature?
