Axis Software Setup

Axis Studio Export Settings

When exporting a file from Axis Studio to use in Unity:

File Type: FBX binary
If possible, you may want to being your FBX into a program such as Motion Builder or Maya and add a T-pose to the head frame before bringing the file in Unity

Import your model and in the Project tab in Unity click on your model and then click on
Rig in the Inspector window
- Animation Type: Humanoid
Next click on Configure to check the bone mapping
- Usually Unity will find the right bone references for the humanoid skeleton, but it's still a good idea to check them
- You can load premake .ht mapping file or manually do the mapping
Note: If we import a fbx animation file exported from Axis Neuron, we can set Rig -->Avatar Definition as Copy From Other Avatar and select Tristan30Neuron_Char00Avatar as source
Click Apply
If the bone mapping is correct, but the character is not in a perfect T-Pose, you will see
the message “Character not in T-Pose”. You can try to fix that with Enforce T-Pose or
rotate the remaining bones into a T-pose.
Click on Apply and then click Done

To apply the animation to your character, you need to add an animation controller.

Go to Assets --> Create --> Animation Controller
Then, click on your character in the Hierarchy and in the Inspector, add an Animator component if there is not one already there
Set the Controller to the controller you just created
Now, you need to add the animation to your Animation Controller.
- Double click on your Animation Controller in the Project tab to open it
- Drag in your Animation Clip and connect it to the Entry node
Click on the clip and adjust the animation Speed if needed
To test, click on the Play button
