[@AaronAsherRandall]

If anyone is having difficulty aiming and walking at the same time, you need to create an Avatar Mask. Open up "Humanoid" in the Avatar Mask and deselect the legs and lower IK so that only the upperbody is green. Then, click the cog wheel on the Aiming layer and add the Avatar Mask to the Mask field. This will make it so that when aiming, only the upper body bones are affected and you will still be able to walk as per the Base Layer animations.

[@ogunrindedaniel9230]

Great point, In addition to this, make sure you set your model to humanoid. After you import your fbx file, under the inspector, select "Rig" and then choose "Humanoid" under the animation type. This will allow you to switch layers and also prevent the bug of (the character from showing halfway through the ground).

[@noblephantasms7250]

Is the avatar mask created from the aiming animation fbx?

[@Mport-UK]

​@@noblephantasms7250 You can do this by Right Clicking Create go down to Avatar Mask. From there I clicked on the legs, body and the bottom 1ks. Then on your Animator and your Aming Layer, click the gear icon, add the mask you just made and click on IK pass.... This is what I did any way works for me :)

[@rebornl]

For the hit scan on 27:08 if the particle shows up on the feet it is because it is using the player transform position. Make a var called like hitpoint, similiar to the debugTransform, in the 'raycast IF statement' set the new var hitpoint to the 'raycastHit.point', and in the shoot instantiate code replace transform.position to the hitpoint variable. Thanks for the tutorial, learned alot!

[@mrri5155]

Thank u bro

[@ed_halley]

When you turn the character to the direction you're aiming, you use Lerp with the current position in the first argument. Lerp really works when you continually provide the original starting value and a final value on every frame. If you don't want to keep track of the original starting value, use MoveToward or RotateToward instead. The progression of values you get with Lerp are only linear if you use it as designed, with the original starting value on every call.

[@CodeMonkeyUnity]

Yes I intentionally do not want it to be linear. I want it to be faster the further away it is from the target so it gets there faster.

[@AbhayKumar-kb8tv]

Thanks for the tutorial. It really helped me to move forward my project. Here is a tip:- Instead of placing cubes around the environment for player. just get a point from ray at a distance. Ray ray = _cam.ScreenPointToRay(screenCentrePoint); debugTransform.position = ray.GetPoint(20); GetPoint will give you at point on the ray at the distance you have given. so even if player is aiming at the sky it will work without placing collider around environment.

[@stevenbraun918]

Vector2 screenCenterPoint = new Vector2(Screen.width / 2f, Screen.height / 2f); Ray ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(screenCenterPoint); if (Physics.Raycast(ray, out RaycastHit raycastHit, 999f, aimColliderLayerMak)) { debugTransform.position = raycastHit.point; } else { debugTransform.position = ray.GetPoint(20f); } Like this right?

[@Az555]

Damn bro, I was about to ask if there was a way to fix that, and there you go saving the day. Thanks mate!

[@kingkangiv1615]

If anyone is a fool like me, make sure you also set the moustWorldPosition = to the ray.Getpoint() otherwise when you aim at the sky your not getting that variable updated.

[@RogerBaconGaming]

Yes, this is exactly the solution I was looking for. Thank you.

[@HATL201]

Edit: This does fix the abrupt change of aim when going from one target to another, but the aim is no longer accurate. I think I'll have to find a way to smooth out that abrupt change. ____________________________________________________ Great idea, thanks. Additionally, I would say that when you're aiming at objects other than sky, still better to use debugTransform.position = ray.GetPoint(20); because in this way your aiming will stay smooth. If debugTransform keeps jumping from object to another, your character's aim abruptly changes, which in my opinion is not desirable (at least for my game design): Here's the code : Vector3 mouseWorldPosition = Vector3.zero; Vector2 screenCenterPoint = new Vector2(Screen.width / 2f, Screen.height / 2f); Ray ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(screenCenterPoint); if (Physics.Raycast(ray, out RaycastHit raycastHit, 999f, aimColliderLayerMask)) { debugTransform.position = ray.GetPoint(20f); mouseWorldPosition = ray.GetPoint(20f); } else { debugTransform.position = ray.GetPoint(20f); mouseWorldPosition = ray.GetPoint(20f); }

[@tanc4635]

Another great tutorial, thanks a lot! Also I think I found a neat solution for aiming in the sky (14:02), without needing boundary colliders everywhere. If the raycast returns false move to an else block and create the aiming point by projecting a vector in the direction of the camera orientation, from the camera position, at a desired distance from it. For example I set mine to 200: if (Physics.Raycast(ray, out RaycastHit raycastHit, 200f, AimColliderLayerMask)) { DebugTransform.position = raycastHit.point; } else { DebugTransform.position = _cam.transform.position + _cam.transform.forward * 200f; } Let me know if I am overseeing something and there is a problem with this, but thanks again for the video.

[@CodeMonkeyUnity]

Yup that's an excellent approach, that's what I would do if I used this controller in a full game instead of just a simple demo.

@@alovelygondal7673 Hi, this is in relation to the main camera. if you want you can use this instead which will work as long as you have one main camera. else { debugTransform.position = Camera.main.transform.position + Camera.main.transform.forward * 999f; }

[@Ez-_-69.]

The instantiating bullet can be used in a realistic game as then we can set the spawn point in the guns barrel and then if this happens( 27:54 ) then it shows that the bullet actually spawns from the guns itself and not from the middle of the screen, many realistic FPS/TPS games do this thing and it adds that extra bit of realism to the game really cool, raycast can be used for a more arcade shooter

You should do a tutorial on a First Person Controller setup with full body awareness and animation rigging. I just realized while putting mine together that there are no real good tutorials for that out there for reference so I had to do mine all by scratch. It was actually more tricky than I expected. I never realized things like keeping the head and body separate for networking reasons. Or how difficult it really is to get the body to perform like an actual body in relation to eye sight and the hands/gun movement.

[@Xahos_]

For bullet not working, : - Add the bullet script to your bullet => he not showed it but it said it (i realised that after 10x watching haha) - Make your bullet a prefab, drag and drop it in the prefab folder. Than delete it from the scene, and drag and drop the prefab in "Bullet Projectil" from thirdPersonShooterController on the playerArmature - If it bounce/not destroy; make the colider a few bigger than the cube

Also for the crosshair if anyone wants an easy way to enable it when aiming and disable when not you can add [SerializeField] private GameObject crosshair; // makes a serialized field for the image of the crosshair to be assigned to. In Awake: crosshair.SetActive(false); // hides the crosshair to make sure it is hidden at the start. In Update if (starterAssetsInputs.aim) // if the user is aiming { crosshair.SetActive(true); // set crosshair to enabled. } else // if they are not aiming { crosshair.SetActive(false); // disable the crosshair } Then in Unity drag the crosshair image onto the serialized field. Hope this helps anyone who wants this easily. The full code up to the crosshair section for me is: using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine; using Cinemachine; using StarterAssets; public class ThirdPersonShooterController : MonoBehaviour { [SerializeField] private CinemachineVirtualCamera aimVirtualCamera; [SerializeField] private float normalSensitivity; [SerializeField] private float aimSensitivity; [SerializeField] private GameObject crosshair; private StarterAssetsInputs starterAssetsInputs; private ThirdPersonController thirdPersonController; private void Awake() { starterAssetsInputs = GetComponent(); thirdPersonController = GetComponent(); crosshair.SetActive(false); } private void Update() { if (starterAssetsInputs.aim) { aimVirtualCamera.gameObject.SetActive(true); thirdPersonController.SetSensitivity(aimSensitivity); crosshair.SetActive(true); } else { aimVirtualCamera.gameObject.SetActive(false); thirdPersonController.SetSensitivity(normalSensitivity); crosshair.SetActive(false); } } }

if you feel that the camera lags when you move the mouse, you can try this solution found on Unity forum : 2021.2.7 uses version 1.2 of the Input system package which has an issue with inputs delta when set to fixed update and can cause the lags you are seeing. To check if that's the issue you could try this: Edit -> project settings -> Input system package If Update Mode is set to Process events in fixed update change it to Process events in dynamic update I hope this will help you and thank's for this tutorial :)

why it is 30f?

[@codepurgatory]

if this not work correctly: Vector3 worldAimTarget = mouseWorldPosition; worldAimTarget.y = transform.position.y; Vector3 aimDirection = (worldAimTarget - transform.position).normalized; transform.forward = Vector3.Lerp(transform.forward, aimDirection, Time.deltaTime * 20f); Just use this: transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(0, Camera.main.transform.eulerAngles.y, 0);

[@wn9521]

Great walkthrough CM. I was wondering if you experienced problems with the mixamo weapon related anims. Im experiencing a problem with ALL the weapon/aim anims from mixamo when applying the 'aim' animation layer mask weight to 1. Before applying the weight the character is facing straight forward in the idle animation like normal but when i make the weight 1 and activate the aim anim the character does not aim straight forward but to the left. So he goes from facing north to facing north west when the animation layer mask is applied. When setting up animation rigging to correct this the character just falls halfway into the ground and doesnt perform the idle animation but instead is just frozen in a weird pose.

[@CodeMonkeyUnity]

I haven't encountered that issue but if you select the FBX file you downloaded and look in the inspector import animation settings you can change lots of things including applying a rotation offset

Bit late for an answer but if you select the animation taken from Mixamo once imported select Animation tab then scroll down to Root Transform Rotation and set it from Body orientation to original that should sort the aiming offset out.

I can see that the Pistol Idle animation is playing as that blue line of progress runs on that state, but in the Game window, the character doesn't actually follow that animation but rather is still in the base layer idle animation. Any ideas as to what could be the issue here? Thanks.

Did you maybe assign a mask with nothing selected? Does the aim animation work correctly by itself?

[@Santosh-tq4nj]

@@CodeMonkeyUnity I replied a follow-up after a couple of days, but it's gone for some reason. Thanks for the prompt response from your side. Anyway, figured this issue out for anyone else that might come across the same problem. I did this - Go to the "Rig -> Animation Type" and change from "Generic" to "Humanoid" and click on "Apply". That fixed it.

This is Great I have purchased the Space Combat kit from unity and I would like to implement my character with this into it. It would be awesome if you can do a tutorial on the space combat kit and implementation of this.

[@LightVelox]

tbh the controller from Unity is kinda trash since the jump and everything is basically hard coded, if you want to do something like removing the player control after jumping you basically have to rewrite everything

[@justinbeam4233]

I like using FSMs. Tried this for the first time after writing different controllers bc it takes a long time to get everything nice and polished. Immediately hated it. I cant come up with game ideas anyway, so I'll just keep working on third person character controllers

[@aimlezz8855]

What a quality channel! Thanks for video.

[@GameDevMarek]

At 06:44 you could change priority of virtual camera instead of disabling the GameObject. And at 16:05 you could just use Camera's transform.forward instead for calculating screen center and creating Ray with Camera object.

[@CodeMonkeyUnity]

Yes those are perfectly valid alternatives

Love the content, but could you slow down some. You type at full speed and then scroll as soon as your done to the next spot. Very hard to follow along without pausing and rewinding every few seconds.

[@RancorSnp]

Cheers mate! This will be very useful to me in the future, but first I do have to finish my current project ^^'

[@arionpaul6208]

Awesome video, thank you)

[@kratosdisciple4637]

Instead of using the Raycast, I just add an empty Gameobject to the MainCamera with a z distance of 500 and use its position for worldAimTarget. Don't have to get the screen center or add the invisible walls.

[@guidetogamedev3657]

Thanks! using this controller I could make my LD49 game thanks again

[@study4686]

very good, thanks for sharing.

[@lambda-snail]

Thank you for the great video! I had a problem with the camera jumping around, and it turns out that since I was using the freelook camera, the camera was rotating much slower than (and independently of) the camera target, which caused a desync that looks really weird when going into aiming mode. So there seems to exist a hidden assumption here that you should use the virtual camera unless you want to make some additional changes to the code. Just pointing it out if anyone else wants to experiment like me. Thanks for the great video again :)

[@K-Anator]

Oh yes... this will do nicely!

[@ferretrayn1903]

Awesome tutorial. I was able to follow beginning to end as a complete noob. Took a little more time, but i did it haha! I'm stuck on the animations with Mixamo however, I uploaded the unity character model and used it as the skeleton but the animation doesn't seem to actually trigger. I can see in the animator window where it tries to, however!

[@CodeMonkeyUnity]

The animation doesn't work or its just the animator not changing to that state? Make sure the animation is set as humanoid and the animator has the avatar assigned And check the conditions for transitioning into and out of that state

[@Blinkers2007GameDev]

I can't seem to trigger the animation as well even though I did everything codemoney did!

[@BenGodot]

could you show us how to add animations like crouch, vault and slide? and you should 100% make tutorials on how to make throwables and an inventory system and gun system where we can shoot other people and deal damage and reload and switch guns, etc., it'd be really cool!

[@heyandrewlol]

How could we make it so the player cannot sprint if they are aiming?

[@CodeMonkeyUnity]

The isAiming is a bool so just check if that is true don't enable sprinting

[@NaveedAli-xl1gr]

HI Where would you attach the bullet projectile script? Thanks

[@jayghost_music]

You just attach it to the pfBulletProjectle prefab!

Thx so much dude. I need this tutorial my re4 similar game:)

[@dftpunk]

What is the best way to expand this controller: to add your code inside the existing script or attach another script to an object and add more logic there?

[@CodeMonkeyUnity]

Depends on what you want to add to it, if its adding some other feature like Auto Aim, I would make it in the same script, if its adding a complex weapon manager logic, I would make a separate script

[@dftpunk]

@@CodeMonkeyUnity thanks for the prompt reply! I was thinking about adding more actions and animation handlings, like melee fight, taunts/gestures.

Hello code monkey i am facing a problem in my unity editor.There is a compiler error from a script that i didn't create and i don't know how to fix the error and when I open my asset in package manager it shows a error and then crashes i am using unity 2020.3.3 please tell me how to fix these problems i am just a 12 year old boy and i really need unity to create a game

[@CodeMonkeyUnity]

Well first you need to know exactly what the error is If it-s related to a external package try reinstalling that one

[@MrColinjsmith]

Great information so pleased that it is free, Now all you need is to add when in cover options then we won't need invector lol.

[@LONEWOLF-nf8fn]

hello code monkey!! great tutorial but it seems like im stuck at 17:00 my character somehow doesnt face in the aimed direction but instead he turns away from it....idk what i could've done wrong and need ur guidance to solve this issue....

[@CodeMonkeyUnity]

Does the walking rotate correctly? Only the aim has issues? Pause the game and look at the character, is the transform rotated? Or the animation? Look in the animation import settings and make sure it's not rotated by default, you can bake a rotation override

[@mtarikan]

I just wanna point out this guy still answering questions in more than a 1 year video. True Legend!!! in 18:40, I want my character to be constantly fasing the way I'm looking and don't have an aim function. So I just used the code out of if statement and still works great! My only problem is, because player is actually looking to raycasted object, for example if I push my right shoulder to the wall and look at the wall, because of the perspective, object actually moves behind the character and causes to player to actually look back. Is there a possible way that I can fix this?

[@CodeMonkeyUnity]

Heh yup as long as someone posts a comment on the video an not on a reply I'll probably see it the next day. For that issue the best solution is to look at how far the target object is, if it's too close then don't look at it. Either lower the rig weight or define a point a certain distance in front

[@mtarikan]

@@CodeMonkeyUnity Thank you so much for the reply I'll give it a try. Another problem is, I'm running all this on Netcode. Because I don't want other players to shoot for myself, I put my aim point and muzzle point in my player prefab, and then made them separate prefabs so I can reach from transform function. Right now my bullets spawn, but doesn't spawn in my muzzle point, instead spawn at 0,0,0 and doesn't move. What should I do?

[@mdevstudio8692]

Very well done! Thanks!

Hi ! Thanks for the tutorial but I have a problem at 24:00. My projectiles, instead of going straight into where my mouse is like in the video, they fall directly to the ground when I press my button to shoot. Do you have a way to resolve this? Thanks and I'll stay tuned

Sounds like you did not disable gravity and did not assign the Velocity field

Did you set the rigidbody.velocity? Also make sure you're not spawning it inside a collider

@@CodeMonkeyUnity I did, but it just "float" at the spawn until a new bullet spawns in and knocks it away.

Same happened to me, I think you forgot to attach the BulletProjectile.cs script to the bullet prefab as a component. Code Monkey dosent mention that step in the video but you have to do it if you're going to add velocity to your bullet.
