Same objects with different scales - rotations are wrong

Hello,

I've two objects in my scene. First one is a rock mesh, the other is the same rock with an animation. When the player triggers oncollisionenter, I switch the rock mesh with the animated one. The rocks have the same size in the scene but their scales are different since Unity does something funky when it imports fbx animation. So when I do something like this:

Instantiate(Rock2, Rock1.transform.position, Rock1.transform.rotation) ;

It spawns with a different rotation than Rock1. Debug shows that both objects have the following rotation:
(0.6, -0.4, -0.4, -0.6)

What should I do, so that the animated rock spawns in the correct place?

 

keep in mind that the debug.log rounds the floats. try something like quaternion.x.ToString("f4") and you will get 0.0000 values.

This will not solve the problem but helps when you debug.

Edit: most of the time I instantiate with Quaternion.identity and than apply local or global rotation afterwards.

 

Thanks for the tip TRuoss. I found the culprit. It's the fbx animation itself not the rotation code. Gonna open another thread about it.
