I’ve got a state in my animation controller that is setup like this:
shot02_float is a looping animation
all the lean clips in the second blend tree are static poses, one frame each. that blend tree uses a 2D simple directional blend type.
I use a trigger to transition straight to another animation. The transition looks like this in the inspector:
So… it seems relatively straightforward to me, but I’m getting very erratic results. Most of the time there is no perceptible transition. If the character is in a position quite different from where the Fall starts, you can see a very abrupt snap to the start of the Fall. Sometimes though it works as I expect and there is a smooth transition over the first part of the fall animation. Sometimes its somewhere between – I can see a transition but it happens way too fast the point of being hard to even see. So it seems like there is something causing the transition to happen either in 0 frames, just a few frames or the right amount of frames as far as I can tell.
Can anyone offer any advice as to how I can get my transition to be consistently over the time period specified in the transition inspector?
Does this have something to do with blending a looping animation with a blend tree full of static poses? I’m relatively new to Mecanim, but I thought I had a pretty good grasp of state transitions and blend trees.
Would be grateful to get some advice on this! Thanks.
