Humanoid Avatars - Unity Official Tutorials 

This is exactly the video I was looking for. Unity's way of exposing a model's rig, and the way it organizes things using avatars and whatnot was very confusing. This clears it up a bit, though Unity should still focus on simplifying it quite a bit!

Some powerful stuff! hopefully I can use it in my animation project I'm currently working on through Unity. Thanks for taking the time to explain it in fine detail.

thank you for teaching us how to not set up bones by hand

really helped me out. salute

Big help!~ December 15 2020 and still a great tutorial~

OMG this video saved ma live. Not the video itself but we had a horroble error and because of this Video i looked in the right section and found it... omg im so happy xD

These are the best tutorials you'll ever witness.I mean my gosh this man has got to go!

you are a very young and courages man

Did you ever cover how to manually configure an avatar? I don't think it ever came up again

2:20 you really need to "find" the transform you want.

Hi, i had a question. What if i randomly download a rig and animate it then export to the unity. The question is which rig works?? how and why? what kind of rig is possible or easier or best compatible to use with unity? there is no one in this world who can provide answers for this i guess. What are the conditions? "required human bone head not found" what does this mean can you help me mister?

Not understanding the point of configuration (except for assigning bones to use other humanoid animations). So assign all the correct bones, I limit all the rotations and settings on muscles, save it all, import into a scene, grab a bone and I can just rotate it 360+ degrees in any way I like. This doesn't really help. How can I animate this with rotations? Or are these only going to apply during a ragdoll state or an during an imported animation.

In about every avatar for VRChat the camera goes in the stomach or chest when using the proneidle position. Is there a way to fix this? If so, how do you fix it?

Is Ethan the only 3d humanoid available in the Unity's standard assets? I would like to have the 3d model, for that Unity model, when I select an animation .fbx.

So, in Unity 2017, they removed the number value from the inspector and there is only a slider. So, am I supposed to look at the exact pixel under a magnifying glass to make sure the limbs are identical on both sides?

I want that Avatar Inspector window too! How can I open it in Unity 2020.1?

Could really use an updated version of this..

I am trying to get the 3D character in my scene. Is there an option in unity that allows you to create a humanoid 3D character in my unity editor? If yes, where?

Do I need one if my model is made using Unity's shapes, then I use Ragdoll Wizard to make it into ragdoll, then I set all limbs to kinematic?

What i been dying to know is can i change a generic rig to humanoid bones not animation but the actual skeleton so that i can make a template for all generic models to convert to humanoid

How do you even open up the Inspector menu?!

I have a model that isn't humanoid in organization (there is no mapping of limbs to bones) how would I make it a humanoid avatar?

Can Unity Please create a tutorial for Modular Characters, as in 1 animator, 1 avatar mask, A dozen of meshes bind to the same skeleton but are in different .fbx files.

Because of you my entire project of 1 year is gone.

when i try to rotate head, i cant press apply, and when i change some other setting, and when i press apply, the head doesnt rotate, any solution?

What do you use to creat your character?

and about spine stretch? if the cartoon character need to stretch it makes no sense not being able to do the same with the spine

optimizing the model rig and exposing a transform is breaking my animator controller... my setup is an empty GO as a parent holding the Animator and TPC and the model as it's child! ,,, it works if I made everything on the model itself but I don't want that!

I don't understand why in 2019 Unity, when you import a FBX Character animation, it doesnt import the avatar from you FBX file

dif solve my problem with missing Left Foot

Very good tutorial, thank you, but if I have model with four hands? What I can do?

Can I do this purely through code alone? (Without using the GUI)

when I start to setup in muscles setting, i find my cloth which is not match the character, I don't know any setting is missing.

My character keeps getting stuck in the ground the animation how do I pull the character up in animation.

okay someone help me. I made a model on blender, and want to import in unity, and add bones to it, for animations. how do you add the bones? plz someone explain how bc I'm working on game dev.

All I get is the "not enough bones" error

Nice tutorial. May translate into portuguese as well ?

hey unity do u know how to fix arms in unity/blender ?

is this the way to do Rigging on a fbx character

I understand pretty well n.n

I need help! I need to export humanoid, but the program tells me that I need to set de T-pose and I don't know how to set that.

so an avatar is the blender equivalent of an armature? then why can i play animations without assigning an avatar to my object?

My model is missing shoulders, and I need them to make the model an avatar for VR chat. How would I go about adding new bones? Unless you can't, of course.

It would be good if you actually explained what bones need to be parented to which bones in order for Unity to recognize it as a Humanoid character...Why are you withholding this information?

do you know how to do animations with custom avatar?

how to make ik for humanoid

So when I go onto Rig it will not let me configure? Can anyone help?!

I open the Inspector window, and it doesn't give me the option of Model/Rig/Animations.

Im having issues with the character being stuck in the muscle meny position

Please update this

how do you fix Avatar to Humanoid ?

thanx 😍

Tnks a lot

and if its not humanoid?

where is the rig tab in 2020 version

my arms and legs out up backwards, how do I fix this?

Upper chest, black.. What is upper chest by the way?

Enforce T pose Wow 😎🗝

Hi Unity, do you have a Asset Human Character Student(College) Package for free ?

How do you get to that program? I've tried looking it up but can't find it

Soooo. I've got the model I need (Made it myself, it's super low poly, absolutely no smooth edges) and none of the limbs are actually touching eachother... When I go ahead and try to automatically Rig it up using the Humanoid option, it doesn't do anything. It says I need at least 15 bones. Do I need to rig it in Blender before I import it to Unity? I'm using Unity 5 btw.

how would I animate with this?????

how do i get xbot?

Not liking the animation tutorials... Too hard to not fall asleep.

BRO WHERE IS THE RIG TAB?

I rigged a model in Mixamo, did all animations and stuff... and this shit is telling me that "I need at least 15 bones". What the hell does it mean, when I have already rigged it?..

and how do i animate? this video doesn't fulfill half what it promis?

Complicated......

Honestly this is the most annoying thing i have ever had to do... one wrong click and all of your progress is deleted

So when will humanoid avatar support twist bones?? And don't give me that "twist correction" crap. That doesn't work. Cus our animation source already animated twist bones.🙃🙃

I seriously think the term "avatar" should be stripped entirely from unity animation rigging topic. Its confusing, its unnecessary and it doesn't make any sense. Unlike "prefab", "avatar" has already a specific meaning to me. I'm okay with a made up word, but at least I expected to be closely representing whatever it represents.

why do you speak so scientifically?

WTF! I can't even see the 3 fucking tabs

Why use this guy to do the tutorial, I can just listen to TEXT to speech tutorials, it sounds the same. Actually TTS sounds more alive than this guy.

how to remove the upper chest for an example? I press the delete button on my keyboard, try and double click upper chest, but it dosent do anything....
