UMotion V1.22p03

New or Changed Features

None

Bug Fixes

Fixed a null reference exception that appears in Unity 2018.4 when the "Unity Recorder" package is installed, a clip is selected in Unity Timeline and "Sync" is clicked in the Clip Editor.

Manual Changes

None

UMotion V1.22p02

New or Changed Features

None

Bug Fixes

Fixed that clicking on the remove all animation layers button doesn't remove the keys of those layers. Creating a new animation layer afterwards thus contains the old keys.
Fixed that when adding an animation clip to the import dialog and more than 10 transforms of that animation clip do not exist in this project, the clip can not be imported.

Manual Changes

None

UMotion V1.22p01

New or Changed Features

None

Bug Fixes

Selecting bones/transforms isn't possible when Pro Builder is not in object selection mode. As a consequence, UMotion now automatically sets Pro Builder into object selection mode whenever a UMotion bone is selected.

Manual Changes

None

UMotion V1.22

New or Changed Features

Holding Alt while clicking on a constraint's foldout arrow (in Config Mode) now folds/unfolds all constraints.
The name of a "Custom Property Constraint" is now used as its title in the Config Mode constraint panel. This makes it easier to seek for custom properties even when they are folded.
It is now possible to assign the value of a setting of a "Custom Property Constraint" to all currently selected custom properties (in Config Mode).
"Custom Properties" are now automatically folded in the Config Mode constraint panel. This increases performance when huge number of custom properties are used.

Bug Fixes

Fixed that the "Custom Property" constraint setup isn't displayed correctly in the Pose Editor when the Pose Editor's vertical scroll bar is visible.

Manual Changes

Added a hint to the "Config Mod / Configuration" chapter describing how to fold/unfold all constraints at once.
Added a hint to the "Custom Property" chapter regarding mass apply of settings.

UMotion V1.21p01

New or Changed Features

None

Bug Fixes

Fixed that switching the animation layer samples the current pose incorrectly if the animation contains a custom property in controller mode.

Manual Changes

None

UMotion V1.21

New or Changed Features

Changing the framerate of an animation clip doesn't automatically scale the keys/events anymore (this gives the user more flexibility/choices). Keys/events can be manually scaled using the box tool in the dopesheet view.
When creating a new layer, the layer name text field is now automatically selected.
A new button was added to the playback navigation that allows toggling the playback stop behavior (i.e. return frame cursor to start or keep current position).
Changed default shortcut of "Focus Camera" to F (same is in Unity).
When no UMotion project is loaded, an info message is now shown that indicates that a project can be opened via the "File" menu.
The animation layers are now accessible via the UMotion API. This makes it easy to write a custom script that exports the same animation clip several times with different animation layers being active.

Bug Fixes

Fixed that the shortcuts of the playback settings add their changes to the undo stack while pressing the corresponding UI button don't.
Fixed that *.FBX export only works correctly when the base layer is selected.
Fixed that assigning a GameObject to the Pose Editor while in prefab mode is not prevented.

New or Changed Features

None

Bug Fixes

Fixed that the "toggle IK Pinning" shortcut (I) isn't disabled in additive animation layers.
Fixed that "Auto Key" and "IK Pinning" doesn't work after animation playback finished due to reaching the end (and not moving the frame cursor in the meantime).

New or Changed Features

None

Bug Fixes

Regression: Fixed an exception that is thrown when opening a custom Unity editor layout that contains UMotion windows.

UMotion V1.01p05

New or Changed Features

None

Bug Fixes

Fixed that in Unity 2017.2 and higher an exception is thrown as soon as a GameObject is assigned to the Pose Editor.

Manual Changes

None

UMotion V1.01p04

New or Changed Features

None

Bug Fixes

Fixed that setting the scale via "Apply Reference Pose" doesn't work.
Fixed that the IK chain randomly changes the orientation within an animation clip. This is caused by a floating point rounding error and happened only when using one specific model.

Manual Changes

None

UMotion V1.01p03

New or Changed Features

None

Bug Fixes

Fixed that when typing into a UMotion input field in Unity 5.6 only one character is accepted and then the field immediately looses its input focus.
Fixed that when "Auto Key" is set to "Update" while a rotation property's rotation mode is changed to euler, an incorrect value is keyed at the current frame cursors position.
Fixed that the keys of every channel of a property is overwritten when pasting, even if only one key was copied. This has been due to the "chain neighbour keys" setting.

Manual Changes

None

UMotion V1.01p02

New or Changed Features

None

Bug Fixes

Fixed that copy/cut/paste doesn't work correctly for GUI input fields in the Clip Editor.
Fixed that when UMotion is opened in Unity 2017.3.0 (beta) no GUI input fields are working anymore.

Manual Changes

None

UMotion V1.01p01

New or Changed Features

None

Bug Fixes

Fixed that renaming a custom joint/transform that is a direct child of the root GameObject corrupted the UMotion project file. This caused an exception when an animated GameObject was assigned to the Pose Editor the next time. If this bug corrupted one of your project files, you can send it to the UMotion support as it is possible to repair the file: Email Support
Fixed that even if the custom joint/transform with an IK Constraint attached is deleted, the bones of the IK chain are still visualized in dark blue (= IK chain members).
Fixed that the IK plane isn't shown anymore after the deletion of a custom joint/transform with an IK constraint attached is undone.
Fixed an exception that occurred when deleting a custom joint/transform that is referenced by a Custom Property Constraint is undone and then redone again.

Manual Changes

None

UMotion V1.01

New or Changed Features

Added a setting to the preferences window to display key strokes. This is useful when recording video tutorials.
Added a recently opened projects menu entry into the Clip Editor's file menu.
The rotation tool now also rotates all selected child bones. This is very useful for animating a tail (e.g. of a dragon).
Added a button to delete all animation clips to the Clip Editor's main navigation.
The context menu entry "Select In Clip Editor" of the Channels section can now be accessed via the shortcut system. The default shortcut is SHIFT + C.
Removed the error dialog that was shown when importing an animation clip that has curves for bones/transforms that don't exist in the opened UMotion Project. Instead, a warning icon is now displayed next to the clip in the import clip list. When the mouse hovers the list entry, a tooltip displays the warning message. This was changed because it was annyoing to get an error dialog for every animation clip in an *.fbx file (there can be quite a lot of clips in a single file).
Improved the text of the error dialog that is shown when a clip was automatically renamed when beeing added to the importer.
Added a quality setting for the keyframe reducer to the import settings. The default quality setting is now "Lossless" (in previous versions it was "Lossy"). This reduces jitter of feet and hand of imported animations.
Reworked the import settings UI.
Added "Disable Animation Compression" to the import settings.
When a new key is created (via Key Selected, Key Dialog or Auto Key) the key's tangent mode is now set in respect to the previous and/or following keys. That means that if the existing keys are for example set to tangent mode "linear", the new created key's tangent mode will also be "linear". Previously the key tangent mode for a new created key was always set to "Clamped Auto".
When the mouse hovers the time ruler in Curves View, only the time axis is zoomed. This is the counterpart to zooming only the y-axis when the mouse hovers the y ruler.
If an animation event has an active warning message, this warning message is now also shown in the export log window when the clip is exported.

Bug Fixes

Fixed that opening the manual via "Help / Open UMotion Manual" or via the help buttons isn't working on Mac.
Fixed that the character is rotated incorrectly after importing a humanoid animation. Occured for characters that had a rotation applied to any parent transform of the humanoid hips.
Fixed that if a GameObject with a large name is assigned to the Pose Editor, the clear button is not clickable anymore because it is shifted outside the window.
Fixed that the time ruler labels are interstecting with the lines of the ruler at a certain zoom level.

Manual Changes

Added a description of the new "Display Key Strokes" setting to the "Preferences" chapter.
Added a description of the "Recently Opened Projects" menu entry to the "Menu Bar/File" chapter.
Added a tip to the rotation tool description ("Tools" chapter) regarding animating tails.
Updated the "Main Navigation" chapter with a description of the "Delete All Clips" button.
Updated the "Import / Export" chapter based on the latest changes related to the import window.
Added more information into the "Import / Export" chapter especially regarding the conversion between humanoid and generic.
Added a FAQ entry regarding conversion between humanoid and generic.

UMotion V1.00p03

New or Changed Features

None

Bug Fixes

Fixed a bug in the IK plane math that caused the reference vector (i.e. the vector that defines the orientation of the plane when the angle is 0) to have a magnitude of zero. If your IK chain is bending into the wrong direction after you've updated to V1.00p03, switch to config mode and correct the IK plane orientation as it might have changed.

Manual Changes

Added the first episode of the new tutorial series UMotion "In Practice" to the video tutorials chapter.

UMotion V1.00p02

New or Changed Features

None

Bug Fixes

Fixed an exception that appeared when editing the frame of a key in the "edit key window" that can be opened in the curves view when right click --> edit key.
Fixed an exception that appeared when models with no bones or "Optimize GameObjects" enabled in the model import settings have been applied to the Pose Editor for the first time. Added a warning dialog that is shown when a model with "Optimize GameObjects" enabled is applied to the Pose Editor for the first time.
Fixed inconsistent naming of the "Ik Fk Blend" channel in the custom property constraint by renaming it to "Fk Ik Blend".
Fixed that the Pose Editor wasn't repainted immediately after the tool mode was changed from/to the scale tool.
Fixed that deselecting a selected bone via CTRL + left mouse click doesn't work.
Fixed an error log message when a humanoid animation was imported with animation events not found at the current animated GameObject.
Fixed current values of a modified rotation property not being converted to the new rotation mode when the rotation mode is changed.
Fixed an exception that appeared when importing an animation clip with an animated rotation property configured as "quaternion" but in the clip already existing in the project the same property is configured as "euler".
Fixed an exception that appeared when importing an animation clip of an UMotion project that wasn't selected in the imported UMotion project when it was last opened.
Fixed an exception that appeared when importing more than one animation clip of a UMotion project.
Fixed that an imported project was not garbage collected.
Fixed that GUI input fields suddenly don't accept input anymore (seen mostly in 2017.1).
Fixed the instruction text in the example scene to make the first steps easier to understand.
Fixed that an error dialog was shown in an endless loop when the animation preview mode of the Unity Timeline window was enabled while an animated GameObject was applied to the UMotion Pose Editor.

Manual Changes

Added work around suggestion to Known Issue 06.
Added sentence to Child-Of constraint that hints that scaling is not supported.
Mentioned that the video tutorials have subtitles in the "Video Tutorials" chapter.
Split the "Video Tutorials" chapter into one sub chapter per video. Moved "Video Tutorials" to a higher position in the table of content.
Added chapter "How to create better animations".
Added a question to the FAQ.
