Object disappears when animation starts in generic mode, but not in legacy mode

Questions & Answers

It basically changes position from where I originally put it. I tried setting it as a child of an empty gameobject, I tried setting the bones in my modelling application (3ds max) to 0 position.
The weird thing is, it only happens if I’m using mecanim. If I set it to legacy it works fine.

Here is a screenshot of the settings I put:

If I go to the animator component and uncheck “apply root motion” it works just fine, but I consider that more a work around than an actual solution, which is why I’m asking this question.

Here’s a link to the model I’m using in case it helps: Dropbox - Colt 45(animated)@Reload.FBX - Simplify your life

Click on the animated object and open the animation window and try removing/editing some properties.
i.e Model : Position, Model : Rotation, Model : Scale

Little bit late with the answer but it might help other people that face this problem. :wink:
