Additive layer - scaling problem

Hi,

Seems like the additive animations work strange in Unity 5 beta.



He's supposed to look down, and he does, but he's all scaled up geometrically (so first bone x10, second x100 and so on). Those are the same animations that worked fine in Unity 4.5 and 4.6 beta.
In Unity 5 they seem to add not only the rotations, but also the scaling... which gives those funny results

Or am I missing something?

Btw. it looks like that (scaled up), even if the additive animations have no scaling keys, or even if it has scale key 0.

Looks hilarious. Keep it!

Correction. It's not x10. It's x2 for every bone in the hierachy. So the second bone is x2x2, third is x2x2x2 etc.

 

I have this exact same problem. Seems like additive layers should apply their scale as (Scale - 1). Or we should be able to mask out scale from a layer or clip entirely.

Also, given that scale is inherited, even that wouldn't necessarily work correctly if you animation had scaling per bone out of your modelling tool.

I am sure I can fix this using script, but having an official way to do this in the Mecanim Editor would be very nice.

 

That is an awesome bug.

 

Yup, simple Set Scale 1.0 every frame, on every bone fixes it. Well... more like overrides it.
