Hi,
not sure what you bought for $100, PlayMaker is not $100, can you tell what asset you are using for your character?
There are samples on the forum about animating character, have you tried some?
jump and walk are all global positioning, you should not use local positioning for this, your character evolves globally.
Can you share your fsm logic ( screenshots or screencast) and show us how you do it? I'll then be able to help you.
Bye,
Jean
