How do I open a .ANIM file?

Drop a .ANIM file onto Analyser at https://lab.valjdakosta.com/ and it opens directly in your browser - no upload, no account and no software to install. Open Unity game-engine assets in the browser. Unity serialises scenes (.unity), prefabs, Animator Controllers (.controller), animation clips (.anim), materials (.mat), physics materials (.physicsMaterial2D) and other assets (.asset) as a YAML object stream, with a .meta importer record (carrying the asset GUID) beside every file. Analyser splits the object documents and reads each - a scene's GameObjects and component-type breakdown (Transform, SpriteRenderer, colliders, scripts), an animation's sample rate and curves, a controller's layers and states, a material's friction and bounciness, and a .meta's GUID and importer.

Can I open a .ANIM file online for free?

Yes. Analyser is a free online .ANIM opener and viewer that runs entirely in your browser - your .ANIM file never leaves your device, so there is nothing to upload and no software to install. It even works offline once installed.

What is a .ANIM file?

ANIM is a Unity animation clip - keyframed curves for an object’s properties over time, stored as YAML. Created and opened by Unity.

Did you know: A clip can animate almost any property, from position and colour to which sprite is shown, each on its own timed curve.
Analyser handles .ANIM alongside related formats such as .UNITY, .PREFAB, .ASSET and more.
In Analyser's format library, .ANIM sits in the Games category.
