Superb job, logically organised and sequenced, delivered with precise enunciation. Good on you!

Bro this is a gem, could honestly be a paid course. Thank you

Can I create an animation from scratch with this editor if I just have a rigged mesh?

非常感谢这个教程！我终于做完了！然而还有接近一个小时的 Tutorial 21 🥺。 我在17:12发现一个失误。在替换Pivot的SelectAnims方法时，实际上应该使用AccelerationLocomotionDirection，而不是LocomotionDirection。

首先，非常好的教程，十分感谢！ 我在给Walk动画添加Notify时，会在第一帧添加一个Notify，但实际上那时候的右脚只是踩在地面上并没有动。最终这导致Walk的Cycle动画在重新开始循环时会听到两次脚步声。 在21:33这个位置有些错误。在第一帧的时候，PreviousFootLocation被错误的设置为CurrentFootLocation的值(0,0,0)。然后在之后和真正的CurrentFootLocation比较时，总是能得出很大的CurrentFootSpeed值。 我的建议是，在21:33这个位置，当Index>1时才设置PreviousFootLocation为CurrentFootLocation的值。 这种错误很常见，即使是经验丰富的程序员（LOL）。 越到后面评论的人越少了，可能很少有人真正的跟随视频到了最后。希望我的评论能帮到其他困惑的人。 看不懂中文的人，希望你们的翻译器也管用。👌

First of all, thank you very much for this tutorial! It's clear and easy to understand. I use UE5.4.4. At 18:30 in the Blueprint node, I encountered two errors during runtime. I believe it means that the GetMainAnimBP method returned a None object. However, this issue only occurs with the BS_N_Lean_Turn node, and other nodes don't have this problem. Aren't these methods supposed to be thread-safe? It shouldn't result in a None issue. Errors: Blueprint Runtime Error: "Accessed None trying to read property CallFunc_GetMainAnimBP_ReturnValue". Node: Blendspace Player 'BS_N_Lean_Turn' Graph: LocomotionLayer_Cycle Function: Execute Ubergraph ABP Locomotion Layers Blueprint: ABP_LocomotionLayers Blueprint Runtime Error: "Accessed None trying to read property CallFunc_GetMainAnimBP_ReturnValue_2". Node: Blendspace Player 'BS_N_Lean_Turn' Graph: LocomotionLayer_Cycle Function: Execute Ubergraph ABP Locomotion Layers Blueprint: ABP_LocomotionLayers

Hi Thanks for your Video , I got a problem with CalculateLocomotionDirection when I do the first method (Not the Switch on) everything work fine but if I use the with everything become messy and stay of the F of the E_Locomotion enum it's never switch ? can you help me please ... I really try to make the switch work . thank you

Hello, teacher, I would like to know you from the entry point to understand the principle?

Anyone know how to delete hollow bones? I renamed my bones and it kept the old ones made them hollow. Its messing up my modular rig. All I read is "redo the skeleton in blender". What if you made the skeleton in Unreal, its like im missing a very obvious delete button

Thanks for this tutorial series! It has been helpful to get an idea of where to start when trying to examine how the locomotion is done in other projects like the GameAnimationSample

If your character jitters when leaning, change the blendspace weight speed to 2.0

I"m following along in 5.5.1 and I realized at 14:16 that this no longer functions this way. What workaround could I use?

u are a genius bro !

you defenitly know what u doing but shit, i will skip all the theory men , im dead , in the floor

bro i lost u in the 2 minute, open chatgpt, and tell him to give u some tdah scripts that keep us with u cause, if i dont know the buttons, or tecnicims i will die, maybe u can put in the promt: write me a script to explain something dense to begginers, something funnny, kinda goofying aorund, messing around, explained to idiots and or explained to kids cuz i lost u bro thanks for the info

This kid fall off the Earth or something? 5 months nothing new.

I really like that you're actually teaching how to use the engine and not just "follow along". This helps me understand what I'm doing and why I'm doing it. Subscribed

Wow great Tutorial Thank you man ♥

I have all my gaits down, but I want to put them as different angles on a gamepad joystick, because my girlfriend with cerebral palsy has difficulty with M&K. I can't find a tutorial for that, can anybody advise?

your the most detailed person on unreal! really learn alot from you, alot of content makers just show the "do this and this" i want to know why .... amazing work mate! best ive seen regarding unreal engine and only just found you on here! id love a detailed tutorial like this on the new game animation sample making it from fresh and adding weapons etc... i think that tutorial would be unreal! :P

Thank you, man. This tutorial make me understand fields mechanic much better.

these are the best lessons on youtube!!!

Hello, do you have tutorial that shows how to add a sword combat system into Lyra?

Epic just published this very system with UE GASP 5.5! State Machines + Motion Matching!

Thank you so much for your lessons, kind sir! You explained everything in such great detail that I was able to apply it to another skeleton and fix all the mistakes on my own. I finally understand what's going on!

a very useful course

i didnt see this as it wasn't on your playlist and i was trying to find a way to hold weapons properly, great 2 videos for 22 and 23 i beg you do part 24

Hello, I have an issue with the compilation regarding the OnUpdate function of the Sequence Evaluator. I'm experiencing a systematic crash that forces me to delete my locomotionlayers file and replace it after restarting Unreal, otherwise it keeps crashing. Here is the error message: Assertion failed: !bRequiresCachedVariable [File:D:\build++UE5\Sync\Engine\Plugins\Developer\PropertyAccessNode\Source\PropertyAccessNode\Private\K2Node_PropertyAccess.cpp] [Line: 104]. My Unreal version is 5.4. Thank you.

Folks something I ran into as a problem, which I found the solution to in Part 7's comments is that if you run into troubles with your Sequence Evaluator refusing to play Stop Animations despite everything being setup correctly, then what you need to do is go into your AnimationLayers blueprint. Go to the Event Graph and add an Event Blueprint Update Animation --> Do Once --> then add your cast to your Main Animation Blueprint there and create a variable there for your main animation blueprint. Then when using Property Access in especially the Sequence Evaluator, use your newly variable. For some reason there was a glitch introduced at some point in the updates that is causing problems now compared to when this series was first made. The issues were corrupting my character blueprint, refusing to run the stop animations, etc. Do yourself a favor and do this.

Solo diré que es lo mejor de lo mejor esta guía llego 1 año después y sigue siendo igual de buena, la veo con los subtítulos y es realmente buena porque tu audio es perfecto, eso junto con tu manera de explicar tan detalladamente, simplemente lo mejor.

Does Paragon animation set have enough coverage to follow along?

Jujitsu? Im going to learn, Jujitsu? This was absolutely invaluable.

im getting free of 3rd party animation plugins and premade projects like AGR, ALS and ALC, now i'm developing my own solution with this series help, this is game changer for my project, thank you so much, you are my hero.

My TimeFalling variable is not changing value. I've debugged IsInAire, IsJumping, and IsFalling to be happening at the right time. If i manually set time falling, on both sides of the branch connected to the 3rd pin, Jump recovery additive animation will play. Seems like in UpdateCharacterStateData, The third branch never gets the value from adding TimeFalling and DeltaTime. If I print TimeFalling to screen, it never changes. When it's manually given a value on either side of the branch, that value is printed on screen when about to land as expected and animation plays. How can I debug why these two variables won't produce a value as in the tutorial? I have actually done this tutorial once before and successfully got past this part. I've compared as best i could for the past few days. Just figured I'd ask. regardless, this series has taught me a lot about UE, and grateful for the effort.

For folks running into trouble with running the "Graph" mode on Orientation Warping, I found that its because there are animations that don't use the IK bones for movement, meaning once out of graph there is nothing for the orientation warping to run on. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5a6aoCXrsebsMk This video covers making virtual bones to give Orientation Warping something to work with in place of IK bones.

First off, great video series. One issue I was having was that I kept going right to idle and would not play the stop animations. I realized there was still a transition from Cycle to Idle which was the same as Cycle to Stop. Not sure why yours's was working and mine was not, so I deleted the transition between cycle and idle and everything started working properly. I rewatched the beginning and couldn't find a step I missed. Just a heads up for anyone having issues were the stop animation do not play

Is there a reason you dont use the "SetPlayrateToMatchSpeed" Function from the Distance Matching Library, like Lyra does? You make the best Locomotion Tutorials btw <3

I am struggling to translate this information into the Lyra Starter Project & was hoping for a little help. I dug through just about every blueprint I could think would have something similar to this system and even some of the c++ classes. I just can not find how the movement speed is modified when ADS. Do you cover this information in any of the videos that are apart of your "Lyra's Locomotion Explained" series? Any help would be appreciated!

9:27 for those looking at the Lyra Starter Project and following along with this series there is a great example of orientation warping node usage if you go to "/All/Game/Characters/Heroes/Mannequin/Animations/LinkedLayers" Open up the "ABP_ItemAnimLayersBase" and within "Animation Layers>Item Anim Layers" double click on the "FullBody_CycleState" layer.

I have downloaded the TurboSquence-UE5.3_FIX2 version, my Unreal version is 5.3.2, when copied to the open plugins folder shows the notice, how to fix it The following modules are missing or built with a different engine version: TurboSequence_Lf TurboSequence_Editor_Lf TurboSequence_Shader_Lf TurboSequence_HelperModule_Lf Would you like to rebuild them now?

Ethan you are a machine dude! I am blown away by your detail oriented approach to teaching. Every step feels so well thought out. This is the Masterclass of character animation for UE5. Thanks for taking the time to create this series! I've been using the Lyra Starter Game project as a learning tool in parallel & would recommend others do the same. This series has helped in unmeasurable ways towards understanding a professional design approach to character animation within UE5. I can not thank you enough!

great tut thanks ... but I having struggle w/ not regular / not linear animation ... want to apply a zombie walk (from mixamo) but it wont works with stride warping this way ... any ideas? thanks

This video isn't in the tutorial playlisy

Re: Fast Feet Blend Profile Blend Profiles exist per Skeleton & cannot be saved or transferred to other Skeletons, without C++. Solution: - Open SK_Mannequin [Skeleton Tree > Settings Cog Wheel > Blend Profile > Fast Feet] - Open your skeleton, create a blend profile & manually copy values from the manny to your skeleton. - Select the new Blend Profile in the state machine transition details panel.

Hi, there. I wanted to thank you for this tutorial. It's hard to find such comprehensive tutorials on KZbin so thank you very much! I'll take this opportunity to give you some feedback and maybe it will also help some people: - If you make a pivot, and then immediately another pivot in the opposite direction (without waiting for the hips to come back in the right direction), you're going to play the wrong animation. I think this is the most annoying problem. - there's also a problem when you make a pivot and just after the pivot you release the key: the character will switch to the “Stop” state, but he'll play the wrong animation (he'll play the "stop forward" animation instead of "stop right/left"). - when running into a wall, the character will continue his jog/walk animation even when he is no longer moving. - also, when you run into a wall, depending on which animation is played, the character will sometimes try to climb the wall (because of the LegPlacement node). For example, the "jog stop" animation. In my case, I deactivate LegPlacement when I hit something, but I think we can do better by adjusting the LegPlacement node. The character can also be deformed sometimes when he hits the wall (due to inertialization, I think), so it might be useful to add an OR condition in the Stop => Idle transition when we detect a bump against a wall. - if you're in the idle state, turn the camera in one direction and quickly after press the down key, the character will “twist” his legs as he turns (or do a full 180 spin). This can be corrected by changing the Idle => Start transition to “Standard Blend”, or by duplicating it, with one version of the transition with Inertialization when RootYawOffset is low, and another with Standard Blend when the offset is too high. - not a bug but it could be interesting to have a custom anim/state to smooth things when switching to another diagonal (like going forward+left then suddently going forward+right) I'll go on in a second comment about the jump-related feedbacks.

please help me, when i tried all of these, my character become a giant from body to head, anyone have idea to solve this?

Brooooo you really help me A LOT!!!! THANK YOU SO DAMN MUCH!

great video thanks

for those wanting to replicate gait settings for multiplayer, set the CurrentGait variable to RepNotify, then when changing it call a RunOnServer event that uses the Change Gait function, putting the logic past where it sets the gait and passes through the interface in the OnRep function!

ngl the video at the start with the guy looks like ai generated 😅
