Clips made in 4.3 are never found when you attempt to play it

Animation

-

If you make a clip in 4.3 and attempt to play it you get:
"The animation state XXX could not be played because it couldn't be found!"

However, if you perform the same operation in 4.2 and bring said clip into a 4.3 project you can play the
clip without a problem.

The reason for this, is that the AnimationClip from 4.3 are not Legacy animation, and the Animations component can only play Legacy.

To go around this simply do this :

When you create Animations in the AnimationWindow, make sure you have an Animation component ( not Animator ) on the target GameObject.

This will make the AnimationWindow create Legacy type animation

    Seems playable for me.
    May be you are trying to play Animation clips created for AnimationController using Animation component.
    This sounds strange but they are incompatible.
    Also if you save your animations as text files you can change m_AnimationType from 2 to 1 in any text editor and you can play them in Animator. But animations of type 1 does not support Sprite Renderer animations.
