    Hello Everyone,

    I am new to Unity and Playmaker and I need some help here.

    I am creating a 2D platformer game and have used Fantasy Hero Editor asset to use a readily animated hero character(and stored as a prefab).

    While setting up the basic player controller/movements using Playmaker, I have managed to move the character left and right along with flip left and right action.

    Now the problem is that I am not able to trigger the walk animation of my character model.

    My trigger parameters of Stand & Walk are not visible when using the Set Animator Trigger action > Specify Game Object > selecting CharacterPrefab. The Trigger field shows the message as "No Trigger Parameters..."


    I have already setup the stand and walk triggers in the Animator window. Still it's not working in the "Set Animator Trigger". I have also attached the screenshot here. Can someone help me here?

    Thanks in advance!

    I had used below reference video to start working on my character movement in Unity + Playmaker:

    Hey,

    I'm pretty sure you have to type in the trigger parameter you want (Stand, Walk, etc). It's been a long while since I've used Playmaker, but I think there are a few actions that work that way, and automatically finding variables/references/parameters doesn't always work if I remember correctly.

    Also, in the future, if you have a question about Playmaker, you'll find answers much quicker posting on their forums: https://hutonggames.com/playmakerforum/index.php?board=14.0

    I doubt there are many Unity forums users that have much experience with Playmaker.
