Question about animation
Hi! I downloaded an animation because it is VERY smooth and i am also a HORRIBLE animator, so this was the only option. I could have made an animation myself but it would literally took weeks...
But the problem is that it was made using a "standard" profile. This means that the animation doesn't have a model, and my character doesn't fit on it. My question is, is there a way to "assign" my character to the animation so it does what it was supposed to do without the necessity of rewriting the animation?
Here's a picture:
If it isn't, is there a way to automatically make a walking animation for my character? I really need something...

Is your model rigged and mapped?
Does it have the various transforms that make up the model for things like "Hips" + "LeftLeg" etc? If so, rename them and see what happens. If not, then you'll have to adjust the animation accordingly.
It happened to work! As it didn't have an original model it worked. I think that animation could work with any rigged character actually.

If you have a model and don't want to rig/animate it then try Mixamo, it only needs an Adobe ID, otherwise is free
The animations are read-only. It's too difficult to change them so you can edit them. Believe me, i tried. At least this one was made to the exact way that i was going to use it, so i don't need to change it.
