3DS max planted key to Unity

tenshi02

Hi all! This is my first post on Polycount, sorry if I miss something (and also for my english).
So I have a problem to export my animation to Unity,

This is a walk animation where the hand of the model should stay at the same position.
I will try to explain with a few images.


This is my hand in 3ds max, they stay in the same position all the time but when I export it in Unity, the hand move


I try to bake my animation, to link hand to this cube linked on a fixed root that I have created (it is not a extra joints of a biped) but nothing work.

I don't know what to do... I am missing an option in Unity or 3ds max?

Try selecting your FBX you imported into Unity.  Click on the Animations button in the inspector.  Switch the Anim. Compression from "Keyframe Reduction" to "Off".  That may fix the problem.

P.S. - I would set this up with IK handles in Unity.  It will make the arms move naturally while still holding onto the cubes.

Hello RyanB, thank for your reply,

I already try the "Keyframe Reduction" to "Off" with no result ...
( for the rig option I'm in legacy mode / Generation: store in root)

For the second solution, How do you set up IK handles in Unity?

My apologies RyanB,

It actually works!
I set planted key at the beginning and the end of the animation with maximum tension in 3ds max,
I export my fbx with bake,
Inside Unity I go to the animation tab > Anim.compression: off




Thanks again for your help
Hope it can help someone else
