Agree with Jan. I have since updated to iPad Pro and iPencil. They are perfect.

I'm using Playmaker to Get blendshape values from one model and Set them on another. There are 50+ blendshapes. My Get/Set actions are all in 1 big FSM state, running every frame.

 

Is it a problem having so many actions in a single state running every frame?
Should I break up the actions across multiple FSM?

I'm running this in the editor (not a build), would that make a difference, one way or other?

Thank you! 

Thank you for confirming, are there any options for WebGL?

I use an audio-reactive tool for lipsync (SALSA), but this doesn't work for offline rendering. I'm looking for a way to "record" blendshape data during a realtime pass, to play back during the frame-by-frame render process. I'm using Unity5.6…

I was thinking I could GET BLENDSHAPE WEIGHT and save to an array during a low-res realtime pass, then PUT BLENDSHAPE WEIGHT during the offline pass…, but I'm at a loss how to make sure the data is recorded at regular intervals (30 or 60fps for instance, but I doubt it actually needs to be that fast). The important thing is to keep the timing consistent across several minutes worth of animation.

Appreciate any advice, or to be steered in a better direction if you have a suggestion...

I'm trying to use a Set Property action, but the property I need is behind the "more…" option alphabetically. But when I select "more…" (it flashes as selected) nothing seems to happen. I'm expecting to go deeper into the menu or open a new window, but instead the dropdown menu closes with nothing selected.

Hovering doesn't open new options either.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi, I just installed the ecosystem (to track down some actions suggested here on the forums) and my projects has borked and Playmaker isn't loading. I've lost the Playmaker menu options and my editor/action windows couldn't load….

Can I manually uninstall the Ecosystem? Which folders should I remove/delete?

Thanks, and yeah, I should have backed up before loading ANYTHING, but I never had any conflict with the Ecosystem before…. I am getting some errors that block running, but they are very vague (JSON Serializer from another asset).

This isn't really a playmaker question, this is a game mechanics question.

In most game situations, you can handle almost everything with Triggers and Events. When a player steps on an invisible cube on the path, a series of actions are called – like a boobytrap in Indiana Jones…. So in your game the player crosses a trigger and the sprite actions are called with an event.

Playmaker uses function state machines which makes game interactions like this easy to build. You have an invisible trigger on the path, with a FSM that is waiting for a collision with the player. When player crosses the trigger the FSM calls an Event that sends its active "state" to the next FSM where "stuff happens" – enemies are activated, score variable increased, particles explode, etc…. The FSM can even deactivate the game object it's attached to, so once triggered it it can spawn other objects, send events to other FSMs, then destroy itself.  It might reset itself, or it might only work the one time, that is up to you how you build it.

Maybe add a link to the blendshape actions on the wiki Add-ons page?
