Hi,
Currently, I am waiting for PlayMaker 1.8 to go out and I'll release the Unity 2d platformer that features 100% mecanim 2d character and PlayMaker, this will definitly help you, so we'll take it from there.
So be sure to watch out for the Unity 3d platformer playmaker port release.
meanwhile, if you find a freely available sample with a mecanim character firing like in this sample you mentionned, let me know, I'll see if I can port it.
Bye,
Jean
I seem to be having trouble with layers in mecanim. Jean you made a great example scene here: http://hutonggames.com/playmakerforum/index.php?topic=2267.msg10191#msg10191.
Any chance you are able to recreate it for mecanim bro?
Thanks for all your help
