Hi, that's great! I think many people would be interested in camera movements and getting those turn animations just right.

[@codethings]

By turn animations do you mean turn in place animations?

[@pm2621]

@@codethings Yes

[@struggling3dartist910]

I've just remembered two more ideas I had: 1. Character turning in place and 2. character looking up and down with the camera movement (bending from waist, or neck)

[@codethings]

Yea, I actually plan on doing both of those so that sounds good :)

[@struggling3dartist910]

@@codethings Can't wait :)

Awesome tutorial! Extremely helpful. If I could recommended running your audio through a compressor and limiter (or maximizer), it'll boost the audio volume and level everything out (like that closing door sound haha). It's not much work and is basically a cheap way of mastering. Keep the videos coming!

[@codethings]

Thanks for the tip!

Hi code things, i have i question can you make (if you can) a inventory system tutorial for a horror game like in the game for example poppy playtime? Or if you not really have time you can tells me a name of a video that show how to make like this?

[@codethings]

I actually plan on making an inventory system soon, stay tuned! :)

[@Asaf1351]

@@codethings thanks buddy!!! 😊

Hi. Been learning myself some basic stuff using your tutorials, and its been a fun endeavour so far. Could I persuade you to look through the animations in your provided link, though. The Walk_Left seems off for me.

[@struggling3dartist910]

Thanks for all your tutorials! I have one suggestion: how about a character picking up and carrying a hanging/swinging lantern tutorial? There are a lot of lamp and torchlight tutorials, but I couldn't find one that has a lamp with swinging physics that can be picked up and carried further (Okay, I did find just one, but it was several years old, it was for VR, and I couldn't make it work).

[@lz4090]

Nice, also adding modifucations within the sequence. Whats the pros of separating the walk and sprint and idle vs only one BS for😮😮 everything. I assume so that you can have more control? Currently i am using one BS for walk, sprint and idle, so when i immediately stop, i cant control the blendong from sprint to idle. So i think this would solve it as i can blend by bool..

[@mr.misc29]

Awesome video as always :)
Waiting for the Game Dev Physics Tutorial

[@codethings]

Thank you and not sure 100% but I can look into it :)

[@BoredGamerUS]

Greate work as always! Keep it up!

[@codethings]

Thank you so much :)

[@lz4090]

Hi again, can you a tutorial to insert a logic for anims with transitions from this 8 way movement, like from transition from sprinting to running, or running to walking and walking to idle? so that it wont directly change to the next Blendspace. thank you

[@Migler1]

Nice job. The left and right walking looks a little off though. It's actually walking backwards when walking left.

[@joanesunzu3087]

Could you go further on your door tutorial so that you actually push it with the hand?

[@Alpha_GameDev-wq5cc]

Basically you want hand IK

[@shiwankkumar9955]

Yeah I want the same too

[@rlb1968able]

You should also make like instead of a typical inventory which is boring drag and drop stuff is kind of horrible. Like a weapon wheel where when you select it an animation plays. You select a healing item you can press that and heal it and you could have like a separate menu where you can click on it and it says crafting and you can craft stuff like Molotovs or stuff like that maybe that's too much i'm just trying to do that with my game myself but to Noaavel because there's no help

[@PinkDolphin343]

Pls how to inspect items tutorial next pls

[@codethings]

Got it 🤝

[@markoj.98]

When I sprint forward the animation is really buggy, any idea why that could be the case? I watched the tutorial 3 more times to make sure I got everything right and it seems that I did. Note that this was not the case before doing the locomotion tutorial.
It's very weird, it's like switching rapidly between walking and running animation

[@nonki2868]

Mine is doing the same thing, Ill lyk if i figure out a fix but as is rn its really buggy and weird. I rewatched several times aswell so not sure what causes it

[@realdannytm]

I had the same issue but setting the Less than Equal value in the event graph of ABP_Manny to the value between the speed values of walk and run fixed it. For example, my walk speed was 300 and run speed was 400, so setting the value to 350 fixed the sprinting stutters.

[@markoj.98]

@@realdannytm huh that is a interesting approach, I will definitely give that a try, thanks a lot mate!

[@tylergerhart4806]

Do you have asset/mesh links?

[@codethings]

For the animations in this video? The links to all of the things used are in the description below! But if you are referring to the the prior things in this video (like the door), I think you should look at my playlist for the realistic character to catch up :)

[@showboll3326]

For some reason my character still shakes

[@codethings]

During the video I have the reason for why it shakes like you’re describing :) it should be because of the orientation setting in your character movement

[@showboll3326]

@@codethings ah, well, that's it, fixed it

[@codethings]

@showboll3326 glad to hear it :)
