Skinned Mesh Renderer and DOTS

[jasonatkaruna]

Trying to convert my mixamo avatar to DOTS with a ConvertToEntity component. Primitives are rendering fine, but I can’t get the SkinnedMeshRender to show up after the conversion. Hybrid Renderer package documentation says nothing about this. How am I able to render a skinnedmeshrenderer using dots?

Haven’t checked this out myself. But last I heard, you need the DOTS animation package which is currently available if you edit your manifest manually.

“com.unity.animation”: “0.2.16-preview.5”

Into the Sunset: Bintray, JCenter, GoCenter, and ChartCenter

I wonder if anyone has succeeded in making it work successfully. My unity closes when it comes to playmode using this package. No errors, simply closes.

There is an example project using it also GitHub - Unity-Technologies/Unity.Animation.Samples: Repository of projects that showcase the new DOTS animation package (com.unity.animation).. Not tried it out though

Skinned Mesh Renderers do not work with DOTS and will not work for the foreseeable future.

How to set up Skinned Mesh for DOTS physics?

[Onigiri]

They are already working. Your post is about physics based animation (like euphoria)which is not possible yet

Did anyone get it to work? The animation package had a major update last month but couldn’t work out how to send bone data to the material shadergraph node.
