Animation help, shooting forward with body movement in any direction
Me and my comrades are making a game in Unreal Engine atm and we need to figure out how the character can move around in the scene "any direction" and still be able to shoot forward, like second son: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnGpfRBZWAc Example: Character face forward and shoots target, neutral shoot animation.… -
Re: Animation help, shooting forward with body movement in any direction
https://youtu.be/1rNDlqecS2w As of now, player can move around in our level and shoot.

Re: Animation help, shooting forward with body movement in any direction
Thank´s for the info! Seems a bit complicated but I think I understand the concept. Simply create an aiming pose on the upper body for every possible direction the character can run that aims in the direction to fire of the shot? Then I somehow need to create a blendspace in Unreal that check my characters direction and… -
