I am using the animation controller to bind the "jump" animation I did onto the rig itself. I don't get any errors. The animation plays. Except it seems to only affect the root joint only. Basically the model moves but not the arms or legs. They stay static. So If i have a character jumping few feet away, the entire model rig will move in jump motion(X and Y axis), but nothing happens with legs and arms.

What's going on?

  • \$\begingroup\$ Unity 3D. Sorry I thought I mentioned it before. I right clicked in the asset folder and created the animation controller, as you normally would. Then I linked my fbx jump animation to the controller and then linked the controller to the actual rig model. Animation plays out but the rig stays in T-pose. Arms and legs don't move at all when they should be. \$\endgroup\$

I have solved the problem. The issue was the binded rig/model itself. Every time I exported it as FBX in Maya, it unbinds the mesh and skeleton. That was why the animation was not properly working in Unity.

I solved it by importing the FBX file back in Maya and re-binding the mesh and skeleton and re-exporting it as FBX. That was it.
