Using AnimationClip.SetCurve on child object.

If i have 2 cubes, the first is the parent of the second in the hierarchy. How do I aim the relativePath parameter at the child cube?

Here is what I have tried, the code is in a script attached to the parent cube.

Code (CSharp):

1. private void Test()
2. {
3.     AnimationClip clip = new AnimationClip();
4.     AnimationCurve curve = new AnimationCurve.Linear(0, 1, 2, 3);
5.  
6.     clip.SetCurve("", typeof(Transform), "localPosition.x", curve);
7.     clip.SetCurve("Child", typeof(Transform), "localEulerAngles.x", curve);
8.  
9.     animation.AddClip(clip, "test");
10.  
11.     animation.Play("test");
12. }

Obviously, this doesn't work. The reference(link), does not really shed any light on how to use the relativePath parameter.

 

Well, I'm currently implementing a importer for a custom 3d model format, which in turn enables modding. What I'm trying to achieve here is that I have one animation clip that manipulates the children of the object that the clip is assigned to.

Hope this clarifies what I intended with this piece of code. Thank you for your time.

 

Try this: (not tested)

Code (CSharp):

1. public Transform childCube;
2. private void Test()
3. {
4.    AnimationClip clip = new AnimationClip();
5.    AnimationCurve curve = new AnimationCurve.Linear(0, 1, 2, 3);
6.  
7.    clip.SetCurve("", typeof(Transform), "localPosition.x", curve);
8.    clip.SetCurve(childCube.name, typeof(Transform), "localEulerAngles.x", curve);
9.  
10.     animation.AddClip(clip, "test");
11.  
12.     animation.Play("test");
13. }
