    Hi,

    I want to set specific time to animations. For example, I have weapon reload animation, this animations default play time is 3 seconds. But I want to play this animation for 2 seconds or any specific time. Is this possible?
    I try to setting speed for achieve this but I can't figure it out with speed.

    Any suggestions? Thank you...

    I don't know if there is something built in for that but I guess even the "speed" parameter should do..
    Assuming you know the "defaultLength" and the "targetLength" of your animtion, you should get :

    Code (CSharp):
    1. float targetSpeed = targetLength / defaultLength;
    Hope it helps.

    Hi,

    you can use .speed = 0.5f; for example. In this case your animation should run for 6 seconds.
    If you want to play an animation backwards (speed < 0) don´t forget to set the startframe to the end of your animation.
