Animation will not work Unity 4.3

Hi there, this is really making me frustrated. I have done a lot of animation in the past and now everything I normally would do is not working. I created a sprite, made an animation, added an animation component and put the animation as the animation clip. This would normally make the animation play, yes? Well it doesn’t.

I can get it to play with an animator but it wont loop or pingpong like I need it to even though I have found the hidden wrapmode by viewing in debug mode. So my question is:

What the hell is going on here? Everything looks fine.

I would like to animate this sprite with a pingpong wrapmode without using an animator preferably.

Posted the exact same question a couple of days ago. As far as I can tell, you can’t animate SpriteRenderer.sprite property with the legacy animation system.

I’ve thrown together a hacky sprite animation script, as I too didn’t want an animation controller for simple animations. You can probably grab it and add support for pingpong and whatnot in a couple of minutes:
