Request for Turn Off All Animator Bool

[hoyoyo80]

Hi all,

I would like to request an action to turn off all bool from animator controller. Moving from one animation to another might be easier if we can turn off all animator and then turn on the needed one.

Thanks

I recommend using the (ecosystem) animator cross fade action, and keep the logic (i.e. the bools) in PlayMaker. Mechanim is only told what to play, the states and  transitions are handled in PlayMaker. You can also pack a lot of animations into blend trees. For example, idle and moving can go into one state; all animations for the jump arch go into one blend tree etc. The blend tree then only needs one or two parameters, like the horizontal/vertical velocity. But that all depends on what you're trying to achieve.

Sound great,Thore and thanks for that. First time i heard about that(since i jump direct to PM).

Beside downloading the action, is there any resource i can learn from?Thanks

I got some of the blendtree tricks from here:
Create A 2D Platformer - Unite Berlin Training Day

It's much cleaner and nicer. My reasoning for using PM for the logic, and only use Mechanim for the visuals is explained here.

Thank you so much. But i cannot find any Animator Cross Fade on ecosystem.Maybe there is a new name?

Attached below. Test out the approach though, before you make sweeping changes. It may (or may not) be the best idea for your project.
