Unreal Engine 5.5 : Dodge Tutorial using the Game Animation Sample Sandbox Character

- In this video I add a basic dodge montage to the 5.5 GASP Sandbox Character.
UEFN Dodge Anim: drive.google.c...
When importing remember to untick import meshes in bone hierarchy otherwise it will import a duplicate UEFN mesh into GASP.

just to add to the video, if you'd like network replication to work for this..
1) Wrap all the Dodge logic into a (Reliable, Multicast) custom event called PerformDodge
2) Create another custom event (Reliable, Run on Server) called Dodge_Server
3) Call first PerformDodge function from DodgeServer function
4) On IA_Dodge call Dodge Server function
5) Replication should now work when you test with multiple clients and dodge
Have you tested this with "p.NetShowCorrections 1" and "Net PktLag=400"? My assumption is that you'll get net corrections because this is not how you do replicated movement.
This is smooth, and to the point. Thank you
I am trying to make Sekiro like combat in ue5 using Gasp. Your channel, and the other channels series about advanced AI is helping me a lot. Thank you so much for your work!
you're welcome, that sounds awesome I'd like to see what you come up with
You sir, are a scholar...
no you are!
@@treehousebandit Hey hope you could help me! When I sprint using this BP it doesn't always work, ive tried debugging a few things but having trouble narrowing down the problem
Brilliant, more of these please 😊
Thanks, man. Dejavu is good.
I see a lot in the forums how to add external animation here .example from mixamo
Looking forward to your new videos
yw! I'm happy to hear it helped you.
Which forum？
Good stuff. mate, thanks!
yw! happy to help
Wow, interesting, so you got rolling working. I will have to go through this and see if it'll help in my effort to pull out a one handed object in 5.5.
I hope it does, let me know if you figure that out~
super thankssssss!!!! you are the best
Incredible tutorial! Everything is working as you've shown. I do have one question though. How can I make it so that the character can't dodge while jumping or traversing? Been having a hard time getting that to work.
Just figured it out. lol For anyone else having that issue, you have to have: Character Movement -> Is Moving on Ground (Function) -> AND Boolean (Along with Dodging -> NOT Boolean) -> the first Branch.
You can disable FootIK in the animation using curves. For an example, check how it's done in the jump animation.
ahh thank you!
thanks for tutorial Video, I hope add some fighting skiills and magic skills
Thanks for the tutorial!! It would be amazing if you created a tutorial on directional dodging using a motion matching database.
you're welcome!! I'm not 100% ready to do that yet I need to work more with actual motion matching and the animation curves they use for them. It's a little daunting because it takes a lot of unique anims but I need to roll up my sleeves and figure it out.
@@treehousebandit Many are having the same problem, it's a bit confusing and complex.
Weapons fire 🙏
Thank you for this.
You're welcome, have fun.
Awesome thx dude
you're welcome~!
@treehousebandit How can I make 2 types of roll when I press the dodge button repeatedly? For example, a animation like lucy and then this roll.
11:30 the dodging variable wont show up in my animgraph. I rewatched n taking the time to soak in what you were explaining but i still dont know what i did wrong
The ABP dodging variable creation starts at 9:06. In the animation blueprint inside of the Event Graph you'll want to GET your sandbox character reference(the game animation sample project comes with this reference already created) and from that reference GET the dodging variable that you created in the sandbox character blueprint, drag off of that GET dodging pin and promote that to a variable and call it dodging as well and with a SET node it will be set to whatever current value your sandbox character's dodging variable is. so both your Sandbox Character and ABP will have a dodging variable.
@treehousebandit o ok thanks! I knew i was still doin something wrong
we need melee weapon and add lyra to gasp
Would love to see a way to add Climb Everywhere like 5.4
Yeah, I would like to have this one too!
Hello may I ask, do you have plans for a pistol and rifle tutorial? Thank you for these tutorials.
hey how can i get the strafe movement to not be the default toggle, rather the other movement be the default? thanks!
inside of your sandbox character blueprint, find your variables and go to input and it's the CharacterInputState variable. Select that and on the details where it has default values, uncheck the WantsToStrafe default(you'll want to make sure you set the Strafe variable created in this video to the same value)
@treehousebandit thanks i did it!, will i be able to set it to a hold toggle this way I tried changing it in the Input action for the strafing but it seems to be fighting with something else because when i hold the left trigger to strafe its like it's fighting coming on and off rapidly
Hey, for an 8 way dodge (like diagonal dodges), do you just go into the montage and rotate it? Is there a way to use the same forward jumping animation for all the forward diagonal directions? How?
Hi!
Hope you are doing well !
I'm working on an Animation Blueprint (ABP) in Unreal Engine, using blend spaces and a Finite State Machine (FSM) to manage my character's states and transitions. While transitions between states within my ABP are smooth, I'm facing an issue when trying to implement a combo system or interactions. Animations that come from outside my ABP (e.g., combo attacks or interaction animations) result in instant transitions, making the animation flow look unnatural.
I've already tried adjusting the blend in and blend out times for the animations, but it hasn't resolved the issue. Could you provide guidance on how to ensure smooth transitions between animations from different sources? Are there specific techniques, settings, or considerations I might be missing? Any tips or best practices would be greatly appreciated!
Where is the tutorial that shows how to begin from scratch with the sandbox character, I can't seem to find a concise , too the point, yet easy tutorial on this. Thanks.
nice one
i'm not worthy~~! thank you
Hello, thank you very much for your work; it’s been incredibly helpful for learning! I have a quick question about this: when I enable root motion and test without applying any direction to the character, the camera glitches, and the character rolls in place. I get better results when root motion is disabled and "force root lock" is checked, but then the character stays in place.
Is there a way to make the actor move while dodging to avoid the awkward in-place dodge?
That's strange because my character rolls forward when there is no movement input. Have you made any other changes to the project before adding this?
@@treehousebandit Thank you for your reply. I think I’ve figured it out. I had actually followed several of your tutorials before this one, but I didn’t fully understand the impact they could have on my setup. It turns out I was in Net Mode set to "Client," and I no longer have any issues when I switch to "Standalone."
You can try running it in "As Client" mode to see the problems I was experiencing. :)
@@meandthet glad to hear you got it sorted out, after I've looked at it a bit more this tutorial definitely doesn't work with network replication just solo play. I'm happy to hear my tutorials have helped you~! have fun
Can you do a wall run animations?
Where did you even learn all this stuff? feels like there's 0 resources for motion matching out there
Well I saw that they were using anim montages for the traversal actions and figured using montages for other things shouldn't rock the motion matching boat too much.
Do rope swinging please
I could maybe try, you want someone to swing from a rope that is already in the level? or a grapple hook type thing?
@ swing a rope that is already in the level!!! Please!!!
Can i request max payne type dive tutorial, there are no tutorials related to this thx
Swing pool like in Uncharted 4?
For some reason my Character BP doesent have the variables that are needed to get this working, is there a setting i need to change or a prior tutorial i need to follow?
specificaly the Input variables and the dark blue input nodes
@@lukehudson7848 the characterinputstate variable is only in the 5.5 version. it's in the input dropdown in the sandbox character. You have to drag that out/get it and then drag from its pin and choose break to see the individual variables.
Hello im having a issue when i dodge my character kind of flies up and the animation bugs out, ive done the animgraph part of the video aswell but it doesnt seem to fix it do you have any suggestions?
if i play the animation in the blueprint it shows the character going in the ground and then flying up, but when i check the animation preview it doesnt happen, but then in game it happens again
Issue has been resolved mixamo just has terrible animations
@@fwkwasi Mixamo has some issues with the root as well, I have to use the mixamo converter app to fix the root issues. terribilisstudio.fr/?section=MC#close
hello good to see you! hows your game dev going?
We should say welcome back to you instead. You've been gone for quite a while. lol
