Copy Avatar source in OnPreprocessModel

Hi,

I'm trying to automate our animation import process, and as part of that I'd like to copy my avatar definition from an existing source. Here's a piece of the code in my AssetPostprocessor class:

Code (CSharp):

1.     void OnPreprocessModel()
2.     {
3.         if (ShouldProcessAvatar(assetPath))
4.         {
5.             ModelImporter importer = assetImporter as ModelImporter;
6.             var avatarAsset = AssetDatabase.LoadAssetAtPath<Avatar>(avatarPath);
7.             importer.sourceAvatar = avatarAsset;
8.         }
9.     }

The code runs fine and I see the source update in the inspector, but the "Update" button always appears. It doesn't seem like the change is getting committed properly. Is there an additional step I'd need to take here?



Thanks!
John

 

Hi, did this get figured out? I'm having a similar problem.

 

Ohhhh, bug in 5.5.

 

happens in 5.6. An easy fix is to only set the avatar when it's null.
