I'm having the same issue and going crazy over maths.. if since then you've found the solution? That'd be a great help! :)
Cheers!

Can you please upload a short clip of what's happening? Also can you post some examples of your code?
Sure, find here a link to a gif: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Cv$$anonymous$$LP6XtxvtaRHOzo9kbdPGzxrBsF2zH/view
As you'll see, I've got normal movement and aim/strafe movement. The issue I'm having is translating horizontal/vertical floats to the strafe animations. If the camera was locked behind as a 3rd person view, it'd be fine (as you can see when the player is going forward) but the game is a VR platformer which means I need to find a way to bring the angle offset from camera-player to the h and v strafe values with h and v inputs. I'm not super confortable with C# yet and haven't found any luck so far.
private void Ai$$anonymous$$g$$anonymous$$ove(Vector3 movement) { // TODO Find a way to clamp the vectors for keyboard diagonals without normalizing Vector3 desiredDirection = (cameraRoot.transform.forward) * movement.y + (cameraRoot.transform.right) * movement.x; transform.Translate(desiredDirection * 4f * speed * Time.deltaTime, Space.World); // oldRot = transform.rotation; } private void Ai$$anonymous$$g$$anonymous$$oveAnim(Vector3 movement) { if (Is$$anonymous$$oving(movement)) { anim.SetBool("useStrafe", true); anim.SetFloat("strafe_h", movement.x); // should have something including movement.y as well anim.SetFloat("strafe_v", movement.y); // should have something including movement.x as well } else anim.SetBool("useStrafe", false); }
Also movement are my axis inputs
movement = playerInput.movementInput;
