Blendshapes and Playmaker Problem[SOLVED]
« on: February 17, 2018, 02:36:27 AM »
Hi,

I am using the blendshape actions on the ecosystem and I have a Fsm where it randomly picks a state with a "animate float" action and a "set blendshape weight" action. The float variable will increase and the blend shape field will change. The problem is I have three sets of states, one for happy, one for scared, and one for excited,and only the happy one works as expected. The other two start off well but as soon as it exits the state after the animate float finishes their weights reset.

Also on a side note the two blendshapes that don't work properly, don't work at all unless my animator component is on "animate physics".

Anybody know whats going on?

Unity 2017.2
Playmaker 1.8.9

If the blendshapes don't work properly I would suggest to search for a problem on a model side. The bug could happen far beyond playmaker.

They work totally ok in the editor but when I try to access them from playmaker they don’t work. I ended up just making them work as an animation clip. I believe the animator is somehow overriding the blendshapes when trying to use both together.

Hi,

 Can you wrap up a minimal repro so that I can play around with your case and find what's going on?

 Are you using SetProperty/GetProperty ? if that's the case, then you might want to use the Linker Wizard ( on the ecosystem) that properly includes in the build the necessary classes.

 Bye,

 Jean

Hi Jean,

I’m not using get or set property at all. I know you are very busy and since I found a workaround I don’t think it is necessary to send a repro. Unless it will benefit the playmaker community I am ok with the work around. Thanks though! :)

Hi,
Maybe you can mention the workaround for others?  ;D
