In this tutorial, I'll show you how to take a Blender animation and bring it into Unity 5. I'll go over the process of exporting your animation from Blender, importing it into Unity, and setting it up so that it plays correctly in your game.
The first thing you'll need to do is export your animation from Blender. To do this, go to File > Export > FBX (.fbx). In the Export FBX dialog, make sure that the "All Actions" option is selected. This will export all of the animations that you have in your Blender file.
Next, open up Unity and import your FBX file. To do this, go to Assets > Import Package > Custom Package. In the Import Custom Package dialog, select your FBX file and click Import.
Once your FBX file is imported into Unity, you'll need to set up your animation. To do this, go to the Animation tab in the Unity editor and select your animation. In the Inspector window, click on the "Add Curve" button. This will open the Add Curve dialog.
In the Add Curve dialog, select the "Position" property from the drop-down menu. This will add a position curve to your animation. You can also add curves for other properties such as rotation and scale.
Once you've added all of the curves that you want, you can close the dialog and go back to the Unity editor. In the Animation window, you can now see your animation curves.
To play your animation, you'll need to create an Animator Controller. To do this, go to Assets > Create > Animator Controller. This will create a new Animator Controller asset in your project.
Next, select your Animator Controller and drag it onto your game object. This will assign the Animator Controller to your game object.
Now, you can select your Animator Controller in the Unity editor and click the "Play" button. This will play your animation.
You can also control your animation by scripting. To do this, you'll need to create a new C# script and attach it to your game object. In your script, you can use the Animator.Play() method to play your animation.
That's all there is to exporting and playing Blender animations in Unity 5! I hope you found this tutorial helpful.
