Hi too everyone, I am new at Unity Scripting.
I have a problem, I attached standard Unity FPS scripts controller to my player, it works perfectly but I want also enable the animation. When press Key W it will be walkAnimation played and so on.
I tried to use this script but it didn’t work and just set the character to 0, 0, 0 axis including the camera.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class MainControl : MonoBehaviour {

// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
    animation.Play("idleAnimation");
    animation.Play("walkAnimation");

}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
    if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.W))
    {
        animation.Play("walkAnimation");

    }

}

}

Maybe I need to use some connections between FPS InputController scripts and play animation script, But I just don’t know how to do it correctly.
Sure this question was answered already but I just didn’t find right answer, sorry for asking it again.

Try simply:

void Update()
{
    if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.W))
    {
        Animation.Play("walkAnimation");
    }
    else if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.S)) //example
    {
        Animation.Play("walkBackwardsAnimation"); //for example
    }
    else
    {
        Animation.Play("idleAnimation");
    }
}

And one question - I wonder - why are you using animations with a FIRST person controller?

Here is the deal I try to connect this animation thing with this control script and it didn’t work, can some one please help me to understand why.
Alsow script I take at http://wiki.unity3d.com/index.php/RigidbodyFPSWalker
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

[RequireComponent(typeof(Rigidbody))]
[RequireComponent(typeof(CapsuleCollider))]
public class rigBodyControl : MonoBehaviour {
public float speed = 10.0f;
public float gravity = 10.0f;
public float maxVelocityChange = 10.0f;
public bool canJump = true;
public float jumpHeight = 2.0f;
private bool grounded = false;

void Awake()
{
    rigidbody.freezeRotation = true;
    rigidbody.useGravity = false;
    GetComponent<Animator>();
}

void FixedUpdate()
{
    if (grounded)
    {
        // Calculate how fast we should be moving
        Vector3 targetVelocity = new Vector3(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"), 0, Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));
        targetVelocity = transform.TransformDirection(targetVelocity);
        targetVelocity *= speed;

        // Apply a force that attempts to reach our target velocity
        Vector3 velocity = rigidbody.velocity;
        Vector3 velocityChange = (targetVelocity - velocity);
        velocityChange.x = Mathf.Clamp(velocityChange.x, -maxVelocityChange, maxVelocityChange);
        velocityChange.z = Mathf.Clamp(velocityChange.z, -maxVelocityChange, maxVelocityChange);
        velocityChange.y = 0;
        rigidbody.AddForce(velocityChange, ForceMode.VelocityChange);
        if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.W))
        {
            animation.Play("walkAnimation");
            
           // else();
          //  {
           //     animation.Play("idleAnimation");
           // }
        }
        
       
        // Jump
        if (canJump && Input.GetButton("Jump"))
        {
            rigidbody.velocity = new Vector3(velocity.x, CalculateJumpVerticalSpeed(), velocity.z);
        }
    }

    // We apply gravity manually for more tuning control
    rigidbody.AddForce(new Vector3(0, -gravity * rigidbody.mass, 0));

    grounded = false;
}

void OnCollisionStay()
{
    grounded = true;
}

float CalculateJumpVerticalSpeed()
{
    // From the jump height and gravity we deduce the upwards speed 
    // for the character to reach at the apex.
    return Mathf.Sqrt(2 * jumpHeight * gravity);
}

}

Here is the part I actually change:
Vector3 velocity = rigidbody.velocity;
Vector3 velocityChange = (targetVelocity - velocity);
velocityChange.x = Mathf.Clamp(velocityChange.x, -maxVelocityChange, maxVelocityChange);
velocityChange.z = Mathf.Clamp(velocityChange.z, -maxVelocityChange, maxVelocityChange);
velocityChange.y = 0;
rigidbody.AddForce(velocityChange, ForceMode.VelocityChange);
if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.W))
{
animation.Play(“walkAnimation”);

           // else();
          //  {
           //     animation.Play("idleAnimation");
           // }
        }

Have to block ELSE part because it don’t let the script run at all.
Don’t know maybe I need to add some bool or Float at Animator controller, but don’t know what exactly I need to add.
