    Hi,
    I'm noticing significant blur when moving/running with my character.
    I've tried different texture settings:
    mipmaps, compression/no compression, vsync, build vs editor, multiple screens, turned on and off anti aliasing, no post processing.

    I'm wondering if there is anything happening internally when scaling the character. We have set the scale to 0.002 - to match the size we'd like to have the character rendered. If we go to 0.01 the motion blur doesn't happen.
    Any tips how I can render the characters without having massive blur?

    Also when I screen record a video or take a screenshot the blur is not visible.

    Thanks!

    Best regards,
    Patric

    Hi Patric,

    The blur you're experiencing when moving the camera along with your Spine character is likely due to the scaling and filtering settings in Unity. When you scale your character to a very small size (like 0.002), it can cause the texture filtering to produce a blurred effect, especially if the filtering mode is set to something like bilinear or trilinear. Here are a few tips to help reduce the blur:

    1. Texture Filtering: Set the texture's filter mode to Point (No Filter) in Unity. This will prevent any smoothing that can cause blurring when the texture is scaled down.

    2. Mipmaps: Ensure that mipmaps are enabled, as they can help with texture quality at smaller scales. However, be aware that mipmaps can also introduce blur if not configured correctly.

    3. Anisotropic Filtering: Enable anisotropic filtering to improve the texture quality at oblique viewing angles, which might help when the camera is moving.

    4. Camera Settings: Check your camera settings to ensure that they are not contributing to the blur. Sometimes, camera motion blur settings or depth of field effects can cause blurring.

    5. Scale: If possible, try to use a scale closer to 0.01, as you mentioned that the blur is not present at this scale. This might involve adjusting your scene or camera setup to accommodate the larger scale.

    Since the blur is not visible in screenshots or screen recordings, it suggests that the issue is related to real-time rendering settings rather than the actual texture or animation data.

      Thanks a lot!
      As usual I spend hours trying to fix it, then decide to post - and 20mins later I sort it out myself.

      Turns out the issue was moving characters using physics in Update() as opposed to not using physics or physics in FixedUpdate().

      Sorry for wasting your time and thank you for the great break down of problem solving regarding this issue.
