Problem With Animation Position Resetting

I know this question has been asked many times, but no answer satisfied me. I want my player to play an animation on death, but when it does it's sent back to the position where the animation was created. I know that this can be solved by parenting the player to an object, but I don't want to do that. Is there some way to work around it or will I have to use this method?

 

With the built-in animation window in Unity. It's just a placeholder and the final one will be made in Maya, but at the moment I need a way to make it work with this way.

 

This almost works, but the player returns to its original state while the animation is playing. I'm trying to make it fall backwards, but instead it kind of leans backwards and then straightens. Any idea why?

 

I did. But I think I've found the problem. It seems to be caused by the First Person Controller script, which forces the player to stand straight. I had thought of that and therefore made sure it's deactivated when the animation plays, but for some reason it still happens. But that's a different matter, so I'll have to find a way to figure that out or make a new thread. Thanks for the help, though!

 

Where is the "generate root motion curves" option for Unity 2021? I'm having the same problem but can't find that anywhere.

 

dude I found I guess disable apply avatar mask

 

create new animation track and click on that track then disable that function
