Jump Sword Attack Movement: Driven by Animation or Vector?

When you dont have experience with the implementation of animations, I would recommend you to take a look at this video series: It will teach you all the basics

One hint that I can give to you is, to plan your animations very carefully (which animation should have root motion, which animations do I need,…) , because it will save you plenty of time (otherwise you will have to overwork many animations,…)

e.g
-roll forward - roll forward left - roll forward right -> root motion
-combo swing -> do I need one with root motion or shall I just use the upper body for the attacks,…

(: Thanks for the advide. I don’t know yet if using the combo swing will move the character some steps forward. Then i would need the root motion again or?

I really need to learn how to apply these layers (e.g. upper body only). I have this fixed setup from Unity in my head, but i guess it will work nearly the same.
