Root Motion Cleaner + Extractor

Purpose

Cleans noisy root-motion curves, can recenter drift, and exports cleaned plus in-place clip variants with root-path suggestion, import guidance, and before/after cleanup metrics so root-motion libraries are easier to trust and ship.

How to use

1. Open Root Motion Cleaner + Extractor from the Animation menu and add the clips you want to process, or create/load one of the included starter settings assets first.
2. Enter the root transform path if the motion lives on a specific animated transform instead of the clip root, or use Suggest Root Path when the animated driver is unclear.
3. Read the path/import guidance surface before processing so clips with missing editable curves can be corrected instead of exported blindly.
4. Set the smoothing half-window, recenter option, vertical-motion handling, and whether an in-place variant should also be exported.
5. Run the cleaner to generate cleaned clips and optional in-place variants in the generated Animation folder.
6. Review the before/after travel, drift, deviation, and vertical-range summaries before replacing any production clips.
