Great tutorial. Very helpful.
Thank you, appreciate that. :)
Thank you bro
You are very welcome.
Great tutorial, I am using Unreal for few weeks only and did not know, you can specify how sections in animation montage are played. Subscribing :)
Thank you for your support. Glad to hear it was educational. :)
If you're like me, who is a bit of a derp at animation. The montage system is great for ripping parts out of pre-existing animation and piecing them together with other animation or creating new animation to get whet you need.
Just make sure that when piecing together animations that limb placements/keyframes are close or exact with each other or you get jolts in the animation. You can usually smooth these out in the animator with adjusting the curves and keyframes, but again if like me, you're a bad animator, you don't want to be messing around with it too badly. Also make sure the existing animator or creator gave you permission, and you don't go ripping off other peoples work :p
Man, you are awesome... I hope you make a tutorial about pulling objects system.
Thank you! When you say pulling object system, are you talking about levers?
@@LeafBranchGames yea ... something like little nightmares when Six pulls an object like a chair.
@@alhusseinali I can add it to my list and get to it in the future.
Hello! Can you make tutorial about switching post process volume on key?
Sure, I will put it on my list.
Great content, Subd! Also any chance you could show us how to create a new state for echo? For example how to create a combat state? I.e. hand to hand or pistol/torch hold etc? I have a character I have made an imported and looks amazing with Echo's locomotion. I was hoping to make a very simple adventure game with the character.
Thank you for your support! Sure, I will put it on my list.
@@LeafBranchGames Legend!
Hey, amazing tutorials! I have slight problem with Echo character, I would love to explore this workflow but my character do some wanky IK retargetting whenever going downslope or up, I have not seen it in any examples on youtube, any chance you encountered this issue?
I started up the Echo project, I could not see the issue you are describing unfortunately.
@@LeafBranchGames could it be editor version? I'm using 5.0.1 and asset says it's for 5.0 ea. If not i will try to reload the blank project.
@@TheQnika Could be. The version I test on right now is 4.27.
@@LeafBranchGames looking at build in 3rd person controller it looks like IK is build in, It might be cleaner way to get into the topic.
Thanks for hard work!
@@TheQnika My pleasure.
Old video, but it's still great!
Now I'm scratching my head and trying to figure out how to rotate the player when it's interacting with a door (always facing forward).
You can have it rotate to the object smoothly with a timeline for example before the animations start.
@@LeafBranchGames Timeline and Lerp? I tried to use volume with an arrow component, to force the player facing forward, and... no joy. I'm not a programmer, but an artist. I'll try harder this time haha
@@Amelia_PC A lerp is short for linear interpolate. It means you have two values, a value A and a value B. Then you want to smoothly transition between A to B. One way to do that is with something called a timeline where you can get a value over time, which can drive the lerp.
I have a tutorial on vector math here: th-cam.com/video/E6iFls8kaVA/w-d-xo.html
where I go through some of the simpler more often encountered use cases if you need to figure out where to look and such.
@@LeafBranchGames Coolio! I'll check it out. thanks!
Hello 👋 am planning to do something similar in my case the door is going to be the interaction object and when i press enter the character kicks the door open now in your video eve seen you have to press enter two times the first to play the animation and the second to close the animation now for me i want to press enter only once after the animation ends the character returns to normal what can i do?🤷🏽♂️
Just have the start event to start the animation montage, then instead of separating montage into sections make it one continuous one. That is all.
@@LeafBranchGames thanks bro❤️❤️❤️
@@mwelwaroronoa1920 No problem
@@mwelwaroronoa1920 No problem.
Op mentions downloading the project yet there's no link in the description on where to download this project.
Yes, you can find it if you search the marketplace. Fairly sure it is mentioned in the video.
How can i make my player and npc play an animation together for example dancing togather or hugging?
You need to sync distances, rotations and timing to play matching animations to make it look good.
@@LeafBranchGames and how you do that 🤔? You reccomend me any tutorial for that or planning to do one?
@@brad4games I will be doing a tutorial on it in the future for sure.
@@LeafBranchGames did you make a tutorial on it
@@BeastMaster4988 Not yet, no.
could you make an updated version of this for 5.3, this doesnt work anymore
In what way does it not work?
You don't show us the State Machines within Animation Blueprint. I can't speak for others but that's absolutely where I'm being tripped up at.
All you have to do to see the state machine is download the project used in the tutorial.
This doesn't work anymore since Unreal Engine 5.1 to 5.3 requires us to use Animation Blue Print. I may even have to pay someone to help me with this because I'm whacking my brain trying to get it right.
This works fine in UE5.1 and 5.3, we are using the animation blueprint in the tutorial.
