About this asset
Animated Character Trails creates fading snapshots of animated skinned meshes for dash, movement, and afterimage effects in Unity URP.
The demo includes an original mechanical runner with a skinned mesh and procedural running motion, plus cyan, magenta, and amber trail examples. You can use the supplied prefab or add AfterimageTrailEmitter to a hierarchy containing your own SkinnedMeshRenderer.
Adjust the sampling interval, ghost lifetime, trail color, and emission state. Runtime methods let you configure the effect, toggle emission, change color, and clear existing ghosts. An offline PDF manual covers setup, the supplied demo, runtime API, and troubleshooting.
This is a skinned-mesh afterimage effect, not a complete character controller, animation-clip collection, or projectile/beam system. The included runner is a procedural mechanical demonstration character.
