Hey… I have been trying for days now to solve my animation playing problem. Each time I assign an animation to my character, this comes up:
The AnimationClip ‘Walk’ used by the Animation component ‘M4A3’ must be marked as Legacy.
can you tell me what the problem is?

  • In the Project window, select your
    character.
  • In the Inspector window, select Rig.
  • For the Animation Type, select Legacy
    and then click Apply.

I hope this helps. :slight_smile:

Its a little stupid, but if you select the animation so its shown in the inspector… The click the little icon next to the lock, top right on the inspector pane. Select “Debug”.

  • You should see that “Animation Type” is 2. Change it to 1.

Don’t forget to click the options icon again and go back to “Normal” mode.

Upon returning, you will see that the inspector now shows the old style.

This applies for Animations created inside Unity via the Asset/Create/Animation menu and when you are using the legacy Animation component.
