VIDEO TUTORIAL

UPDATE 1.2

• Bone chain selector for Blend animation option.
• Live viewport (now you can see live update on the changes you make before applying to your animation).

MAJOR UPDATE 1.1

• Added:
• Clear Root bone zero frame offset in Reverse animation - lets you offset the root to 0 at the start of the animation.
• Repeat frames - this modifier lets you repeat any frame to add pause or exaggerate certain parts of the animation.
• Make Looped - lets you blend the beginning and the end of the animation to make them loop (includes an option to add extra frames to the end of the animation if needed and pick the parent bone from which changes should be applied).
• Remove frames - lets you remove unnecessary frames of the animation.
• Blend with other - lets you build completely new animation asset by blending with another animation. Options include:
• "Start frame" picking the start frame from which the blending starts in the source of the animation. (example: if you want blending to start at the beginning, then select 0).
• "Target asset" picking target animation.
• "Target start frame & target frames num" picking target's animation's duration in the blend (how many frames of the animation should be blended with the source animation).
• "Start blend frames num" is picking number of frames to blend in between two animations, for smooth transition between poses at the beginning of the blend + pick blend curve (in case you want blend to start at the certain frame).
• "End blend frames num" picking number of frames to blend out at the end + blend curve (in case source animation is longer).
• "Bone Filter" lets you pick the parent bone from which the blending should start.
• "Insert as new frames" means that you can insert target animation between frames of the source animation without change.
• For now, plugins work best for blending animations with the same frame rate.

Practical Usage:

• Right Mouse Button will open context menu.
• Click on Modify Animation Sequences.
• Tool popup will appear.
• Configure modify options.
• Click on Apply button (duplicate your animations before using the plugin. There is no going back after applying the changes).
• Close popup to check updated Animation Sequences.

Note: Only reverse and mirror can be applied to multiple assets at the same time.

ATTENTION: RM Fix Tool might be useful to fix any root motion issues of the animations, especially helpful to fix Mocap, create or remove root motion, offset root motion, change root motion direction of the animation and to snap IK bones.
