Re: Quake using Unreal.
got the animation system pinned down!!!!. Had to learn the control rig system. It's brilliant. The way I'm using it is by creating a new control rig per gameplay controller based animations. Instead of a new animation and or canned animation I just create a procedural animation with the control rig and link that into the… -
Re: Quake using Unreal.
test complete! Got a bit more time to work on it. I'm blending control rigs sooooo easily. No point to use canned animations. Procedural animation is DONE animation. Just need to add in the leg extension when unloading the attack. It is far better to animate using code than linear canned method. https://youtu.be/B-BHTWY4xUk -
Re: Quake using Unreal.
Pinned down the complete work flow with control rig. Create the pose and intended animation function in control rig itself, then send only the working point controls. Handle the control rig no differently than a bake animation in anim bp. Use the character bp to do the timing. It's very clean. My strategy is duplicated… -
Re: Quake using Unreal.
it may not be much of a use right now. Simple use of control rig and the complete system. But what is important to know is there is no canned animations in it and it was all created in seconds and is 100% dynamic. Dynamic as in at any time any new animation is simply programmed in with new points and space and it works.… -
Re: Quake using Unreal.
Where a animator or team of animators can be removed and replaced by a 3d artist coder...always do it. My going game project is actually going to get done!!! I spent so much money on store animation assets that are basically useless now. Whatever. -
Re: Quake using Unreal.
yup, this work flow is amazing! Simply make key poses with control rig and use oscillation and point interpolations to add in 2nd and 3rd movements. Dosnt look like much now but I have the pipeline figured out and best of all it's easier to make changes of any kind while results always good and clean. No more canned… -
Re: Quake using Unreal.
Added in more oscillation for more verity in the movements. I'm pushing for a more classic 2d looping look to everything. The whole world has to look like it's on a beat. Metal Slug is a good example of "the beat" look. The control rig allows a procedural method to programming the animation for the game. To make the… -
Re: Quake using Unreal.
Got more of primitive the systems working together for the gore system. Next is getting animation responses in. https://youtu.be/EGaORwHrZJg -
Re: Quake using Unreal.
Control rig is amazing. SOOO much time is saved by just coding out the animations. There is like waste in it. -
Re: Quake using Unreal.
For instance, I'm currently building the weapon swap. It's has to look good, be this simple and able to change easily at anytime for what it is right now. Anything more than this would either prevent or delay building the weapon swap. It's the genius of procedural animations. https://youtu.be/_teVtY4yVYU
