Exporting animation file to unity without the "armature" parent

[melisa]

Hi,
I want to be able to use mixamo’s rig directly without blender’s “armature” addition as a parent.
I use Blender for small adjustments on the rig but after exporting it to unity there is another armature on top of the mixamo rig. And I can’t delete Blender’s armature.
How can I avoid this situation?
Thank you

The last picture is how I want it to look like (when i use the animation file directly imported from mixamo without using bl)ender

Blender Armature/Rig exported, without Bones but with Animations (to Unity)

Import ANY Animation from Blender to Unity (NO RIG / NO BONES!)

Thank you for replying
But I don’t think that’s the problem, the problem is Blender keeps adding a parent on top of mixamo’s rig automatically that is not deletable

Gotcha,

Well, here’s what I’ve just found relating to Mixamo:

Way to remove Armature(parent) but retain the animation

This is very first post and made the account just to look for the solution. So the thing is I am working on existing Unity Game Projects which contains mixamo rigs/animations, and as I just recently started to work on rigging and animations in blender, I found out that while exporting we dont have hips as root but Armature is the root… I do understand how the modifier makes this happen. Working on a new project from scratch where rigging and animations is all done in blender there is no hinde…
