Attack animation with the mouse

Hello!

I have tried a lot of diff types of codes, but i cant get it to work at all.
The thing is that i trying to make so you only have to click on the mouse button once and never again to play the fully animated attack animation.

My problem atm is that i can only make so you can to hold down the mouse button to play the animation fully, and if i try some other code(s) i have to click like 10 times fast to play the whole animation in a laggy state.

I think it has to do with the

Code (JavaScript):

1. if (Input.GetMouseButton(0))

?
So i have to ask you guys here for help

here the code for hold down button attack.

Code (JavaScript):

1.     function Update ()
2.     {
3.        if (Input.GetMouseButton(0))
4.    
5.         {
6.            animation.Play("attack1");
7.    
8.         }
9.            else if (Input.GetMouseButton(1))
10.         {
11.            animation.Play("attack2");
12.    
13.         }        
14.    
15.     }
16.  

 

You should watch the stealth tutorial. It has everything you need to get started with Mechanim.

 

I dont have problems with the actual animations, just to make them play once and to the end, and not canceling the animations if i release the mouse button.

 

That is exactly what the tutorial teaches you.

 

The only thing i found about this is here http://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/AnimationParameters.html
But that doesnt work at all

 

Then you are doing something wrong, I am afraid. Animation parameters work fine if you implement them correctly.

 

I have no idea what/if im doing wrong here. And exactly nothing happens when i press fire.

Here is what i have atm from that link

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class Attack : MonoBehaviour {
5.  
6.     // Use this for initialization
7.     protected Animator animator;
8.    
9.     public float DirectionDampTime = .25f;
10.    
11.     void Start ()
12.     {
13.         animator = GetComponent<Animator>();
14.     }
15.    
16.     void Update ()
17.     {
18.         if(animator)
19.         {
20.             //get the current state
21.             AnimatorStateInfo stateInfo = animator.GetCurrentAnimatorStateInfo(0);
22.            
23.             //if we're in "Run" mode, respond to input for jump, and set the Jump parameter accordingly.
24.             if(stateInfo.nameHash == Animator.StringToHash("Base Layer.RunBT"))
25.             {
26.                 if(Input.GetButton("Fire1"))
27.                     animator.SetBool("attack1", true );
28.             }
29.             else
30.             {
31.                 animator.SetBool("attack1", false);              
32.             }
33.            
34.             float h = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
35.             float v = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
36.            
37.             //set event parameters based on user input
38.             animator.SetFloat("Speed", h*h+v*v);
39.             animator.SetFloat("Direction", h, DirectionDampTime, Time.deltaTime);
40.         }      
41.     }      
42. }

 

Did you set up the controller properly?

 

If the controller you say is the GetComponent<Animator, then yes. or else the other codes would not even work for animations. And the only settings i get from the actual code is "Direction Damp Time" in Inspector
