Trying to Play Simple Animation in Unity For Art Test - Need Help!!
Hey folks, I'm up to my man-boobs in a VFX art test. It's software independent and I decided to use Unity, of which I have *a little* experience. That said, I need help!! :poly122: All I want to do is play an animation that I've created with 3DS Max in Unity. Literally, hit play and see the animation. Nothing fancy. So… -
