🔍 FAQs

Q: Does this pack work with Mecanim?
A: Yes! However, this pack only supports standard POLYGON characters, POLYGON Kids, and POLYGON Big Rig characters. ANIMATION - Swords Combat animations make use of a prop bone, an extra bone added to the hand. You may need to retarget the animations using third-party tools to get the prop bone to animate correctly on other characters.

Q: Can I use this pack with ANIMATION - Base Locomotion?
A: Yes, documentation is provided to guide you in blending ANIMATION - Sword Combat with ANIMATION - Base Locomotion. There's an example animation controller included in the pack, as well as transition animations for integration with Base Locomotion.

Q: Do these animations work with characters in Synty POLYGON packs?
A: Yes! These animations are designed to work with standard POLYGON characters, POLYGON Kids, and POLYGON Big Rig characters.

Q: Do these animations work with characters in Synty SIMPLE packs?
A: No, these animations do not work with SIMPLE characters.

Q: Can I use the animations on my own custom rig?
A: ANIMATION - Swords Combat animations make use of a prop bone, an extra bone added to the hand. You may need to retarget the animations using third-party tools to get the prop bone to animate correctly on other character rigs even when using mecanim.

Q: Does this pack support Unreal Engine?
A: This pack does not officially support Unreal Engine. There is currently no timeline for Unreal Engine support for Synty ANIMATION products.

Q: Can the animations be used in Unreal?
A: Even though Unreal Engine is not officially supported, you can import the animation FBX files into Unreal Engine, retarget them using the Unreal animations tool, and use them on the Unreal Mannequin. However no Synty support is currently offered for this.

Great animations

I have trialed and tested this asset with Dungeons, Dungeon Realms, Fantasy Kingdom, Ancient Empire, Dark Fantasy and Elven Realm. These animations play out wonderfully and are very easy to set up. The only problem was with the characters in Dungeons, but once I was informed to use the Fixed Scale Dungeons characters, all worked perfectly, just like the others. This asset, used in conjunction with the Base Locomotion asset, has proved to be a boon to the project I am working on. The animations really are first rate and they merge so smoothly with each other that all sorts of options are open to the design process. I am keeping my fingers crossed that there will be more offerings of this sort in the future - shield blocking, gun combat, bow and arrow combat would be incredible. Whatever may come in the future will be an instant purchase.

Hi there thanks for the review and feedback. For any assistance with the animation packs and using them with Synty models please reach out to support@syntystudios.com for further assistance.

Works great, even with inverse kinematics package

at first its very hard to set up the sword bone correctly, even with documentation, you might have to fiddle with the Prop Bone Binder, but overall great package, it even includes a script to adapt the sword bone to any model (honestly great job guys, sweet animations and great script)

Thanks for the review :)

Great animations

I'm a big fan of your animation packs, instant purchase for me. :)

Cheers for the review!

Future animations request.

Amazing animations!, But i would have likeed to see some Shield Block animations to be present in this package. Looking forward for more Synty related animations. Would be nice with some spell casting ones etc
