How to animate your Photoshop characters in Unity

Using Unity's amazing 2D stack (2D animation, PSD Importer, Sprite Swap), you can streamline your 2D workflow for a huge production boost to your development. We'll use IK (inverse kinematics) to assist us creating life like animations as well as setting up an easy way to swap sprites out, like weapons and armor. Not only that, we will reuse the same skeleton and animations across multiple units!

Please note: Check to ensure your layers all converted properly. You may need to flatten later styles.

BTW, when animating if you think that the animation is not looping perfectly or slows down a bit at the end making it uneven then you can select all extreme left and right keys then set them to "Flat" instead of "Clamped Auto" which is the default value.

Holy sht that right clicking on Position and clicking "Add Key" was the best freaking advice, I used to drop down and search every child one after another that I wanted to animate before this. Freaking saves like probably a lot of time

I love the violent clicking of the keyboard keys when you type. All thay anger of working on making games going out on those keys

The perfect video flow I'd say. All the information is very well tied together and all of it has been really interesting to soak in!

I've been using Unity since 2016 and I didn't know this! Thank you!!

this is the only comprehensive and simplest tutorial I've found for importing and rigging 2D characters into Unity. it's ridiculous

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for!!!! Thank you from the depths of my soul.😭

This was a great tutorial, really good information thank you so much!

As a non-photoshop user, I had to Google the difference between PSD and PSB, initially thinking one was just a typo. TIL: They're basically the same, whereas B stands for Big, and supports filesizes greater than 2GB.
Nice video! Showing your workflow and shortcuts definitely help highlight areas where I can be more efficient in. Good stuff

i followed a similar tutorial from someone else a while back where it took about 30 mins what you do (better) in 7. Great job!

[noraholmberg]

Such an awesome tutorial! This helped me out ALOT!

Dude, your videos are hidden gem. Thanks for videos!

[DevikenGames]

your videos are amazing, please keep posting

[satheshs]

Awesome videos, I have tried same kind of animations and also learned.

[roobplayer]

Thank you. It is very useful for me. 😃

Can’t wait to get my gaming computer soon so I can use unity again thanks for the video

[tobario]

Wow Taro. Thank you for the tutorial. I'm in the middle of deciding to make my strategy game 2D with Sprites or Animation Rig or 3D. This is such a cool and simple process, I think I'll make it 2D with Animation Rig.

Man, you are new Brackey! I regret I didn't know this before!
