Simple Character Animations

Have you thought of using Character motor, it works good for my avatar. he walks (speed can be increased), he can stop waling, he can reverse, and finally he can jump.

Hello, I had the same issue. I guess this script may help you: Animation Script

Or if you need more info use the video: Animation tutorial
