New Mecanim setting "Write Defaults"

Zomby138 · Nov 5, 2014

There's a new tick box in Mecanim called "Write Defaults". Just wondering what it does. I haven't tried un-ticking it yet.

It's between "Foot IK" and "Mirror" with no explanation anywhere. Anyone know what it does?

here is a thread I came across while researching this myself:

http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/mecanim-default-values.266613/

and read this:

In 5.0 we have added a property on the State to "Write back default values". Meaning that if turned on, it will write back the default values of all animated properties ( on a Controller wide-basis) that are not animated in that State.

By default, its "on", so we don't change the behavior that we had before.

So if you want the non-animated properties of a State to keep the value it had previously, simply turn it off.
