"Animator is not playing an AnimatorController"

Hi. Going through the Adventure Creator 3D primer tutorial and had a hard stop early on when I tried to get El_Tinpot to move or play. I keep getting the message: "Animator is not playing an AnimatorController."

I went through the following protocol.

  • "unchecking the apply root motion" (which is already unchecked."
  • deleted the character and started the character wizard twice.
  • closed and reopened the scene several times.

I am using Unity version 2020.3.16f1

Please help. Thank you!

  • Welcome to the community, @phatiphong.

    Are you able to move the Player around despite the message?

    This message will come from Unity's Animator component if it has nothing assigned in its Inspector's "Controller" field.

    To remove this warning and allow for the playback of animations, you'll need to create and assign an Animator Controller asset - this step occurs at 13:41 in the video.

    So long as you have "Apply Root Motion" unchecked, however, you can still test the game - indeed this is what the 3D Primer video does, and the warnings can be ignored until then.
