arXiv:2605.20209v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Achieving precise, versatile whole-body character control in physics-based animation remains challenging. Recent diffusion-based policies generate rich and expressive motions but typically rely on gradient-based test-time guidance to satisfy task objectives, which is slow and can reduce robustness. We introduce NaP-Control (Navigating Diffusion Prior for Versatile and Fast Character Control), abbreviated as NaP. Our method uses reinforcement learning to manipulate the latent noise of a task-agnostic diffusion policy prior, steering it toward ta
