I’m following this playground: https://playground.babylonjs.com/#CP2RN9#18 . It imports a .babylon file, and uses hardcoded animation ranges. I’m trying to get it work with an arbitrary .glb file. The problem is that baker.bakeVertexData hangs. It’s because the onAnimationEnd is never called (by Ani…

Unfortunately I haven’t worked on this anymore, the last working solution was the one described in my post, basically “baking” the animations Blender and exporting a .babylon file. In blender you need to use only one action track and add all animation keys sequentially. Apologies if the explanation…

@brunobg @Evgeni_Popov Any ideas?

It seems it’s an open problem: [image] Baked Texture Animations with Animation Groups? Questions Hello, I’ve tried working with the Baked Texture Animations feature in 5.0, and there doesn’t seem to be a way to bake Skeleton animations with Animation Groups (coming for e…

That sounds like a reasonable solution. Alternatively, maybe we can create skeleton animations from the animationGroups.

So, I’m trying to move the animatables from the animationGroups into the skeleton’s animatables. From looking at the VATManager with instances PG, skeleton.getAnimatables() needs to contain all animations in a single list, but I don’t understand how to generate the hierarchy.

Hi @alekop just checking in if you still need help with this?

Thanks for following up! I hit a wall on this and moved to other tasks, but I’m coming back to it. I’m not sure how to proceed… It seems that animation baker needs the animations to be in the skeleton, not in animationGroups. So I’m trying to iterate over assetContainer.animationGroups, create an A…

I’ll tag @PatrickRyan on this as he has been experimenting with skeletal animations a lot and is certainly way better than me at this :rofl:

@carolhmj and @alekop , I’m not sure how much help I can be because it sounds like there is an issue with baking animation groups to vertex. I don’t know if it’s even possible to recreate an animation from an animation group in code because a group is a collection of animations that all play at once.…

I went with Andi’s approach and switched to .babylon files, with a single animation track. I wrote a simple baker tool that lets me type in the animation ranges manually, then bake and export to JSON. Loading VATs from JSON is faster than baking anyway. But… For the purpose of baking, it may not b…

It seems it’s an open problem:

I don’t know if @Andi has made progress on this(?)
