Render pipeline compatibility
The Built-in Render Pipeline is Unity’s default render pipeline. It is a general-purpose render pipeline that has limited options for customization. The Universal Render Pipeline (URP) is a Scriptable Render Pipeline that is quick and easy to customize, and lets you create optimized graphics across a wide range of platforms. The High Definition Render Pipeline (HDRP) is a Scriptable Render Pipeline that lets you create cutting-edge, high-fidelity graphics on high-end platforms.
Additional compatibility information

Demo assets materials are using standard shader so it should be no problem with converting them to any SRP!

Description

Tail Animator Version 2 is package of behaviors simulating elastic tail movement with procedural animation giving many new capabilities to you!


This animator will add much more realism and smoothness to your


keyframed animations of tail or just animate it for you without need of making animations in other softwares.




You can add tail elasticity to anything you want:


capes / plants / tentacles / arms / whole body (it needs bones or other parented game objects) Possibilities are limited only by your mind.


Package comes with tool to create skinned meshes with bones just inside unity and can be used also to skin models in runtime.


(mainly for tail type models, it's not creating full humanoid skeleton for example)




☄️ Component reacts with changes on object's position / rotation / scale.


Just add component to object you want to animate elastic, define root transform


(or bone) and play with parameters.




Don't worry about performance, you can use a lot of Tail Animators simultaneously without changes on CPU even on mobile!


Package works on all SRPs! It's not shader related package.

(You just need to covert standard Demo materials for demo examples)

Built In ✅ LWRP ✅ URP ✅ HDRP ✅ Custom RP ✅


Also if you use Optimizers you can let yourself use even more of them!




Save tones of hours of animating smoothly tails, cloaks, or other stuff!


Let Tail Animator do it for you. If you need specific movement animation of tail but it lack smooth motion then attach to it Tail Animator which will really bring it to life!
