Moho doesn't work well with Unity? For games?

Hi, I'm loving this software but I've been hearing that exporting to Unity is a pain. Is that true?
I've been under the impression that once I'm done with the animation what I see is what I get and just use it in the game engine.

Although I love Moho, I would never use it export FBX characters directly to Unity. Too glitchy, and not all features of Moho are supported. If you need a production-proven 2d cut-out animation tool with mesh deformation/bones/IK that is actively supported by Unity's community with many examples, I'd advise you to use Spine instead. Spine is expensive, though ($299: the non-pro version is useless and misses essential animation options) - Dragonbones is pretty much the same, imports and exports Spine animations and is (surprisingly enough) free. The only drawback of Dragonbones and Spine export: it requires the app to be online (only for Spine export).

But Dragonbones also supports Unity natively!

Again, from a practical view you'd be better off using these tools instead of Moho for segmented animated character support in Unity, in my opinion.

Man, that sucks. Those programs are not as powerful as moho and I can't do stuff like smart bones with them

Besides with Moho you can do great stuff easily like turns etc.

This guys scripts allow MOHO fbx files to work pretty well in Unity. viewtopic.php?f=9&t=30600

Thanks for the heads up, I'll try it.
