Setup Jump & Sprint and Fine Tune Root Motion System - Part 3

[@Astaraa]

CameraShake has been renamed to MatineeCameraShake in 4.26

[@Ncole3321]

Incredible, really want to see how to integrate cover animations/climbing animations from your Open Anim set. Great job.

[@KarenKawas]

Such an amazing tutorial and animations! Really worth the buy. If you are a new game dev follow every step and it should work just fine.

[@Filmstorm]

Thanks Karen!

[@mikeellis7434]

Thanks very much for the tutorial I would not have been able to set that all up myself and I learned a ton. Thanks again!

[@OtaconAlonsus]

just finished following the 3 videos, and thank you for these tutorials. One thing I noticed (maybe its my error somewhere along the line).. everything works as intended, but if I happen to start sprinting from an idle position. I lose the character direction change, and they can only sprint in a straight line. Its only after stopping sprinting and starting with a walk/jog then can sprint and change direction perfectly fine.

[@ldracarys9905]

Hi bro do u resolve this problem, it don't initialize the direction because the speed automaticaly go to x2 when pressing shift

[@siphochabalala7680]

Nice Tutorial series, very useful, I would like to use the same functionality as the sprint for walking, how would I go about doing so?

[@JoseRojasCh]

What happen with the Foot input on the StopMove Blend Space?

[@zaidtarek9445]

I was looking for these tutorials for months , thanks god , finally i found it here , thank you very much for these tutorials :)

[@Filmstorm]

You’re very welcome!

[@steadystefano]

We got your animset animation, its a big help to the community specially the switch hands while holding a weapon, very nice :)

[@sorooshseyedein]

You didn't set up the foot variable for the stop moves. How do you do that?

[@simpleandrew4461]

Quick fix on holding the sprint button while remaining still: > get velocity with target as self, pull return value to VectorLength > get a float > float and set the return value of VectorLength as either one of the two check values (other value is 0) > set the bool of Float > Float as the return value for the ticked Is Sprinting

[@reerreer2156]

can u make video how we can replicat this root motion movement ??

[@reerreer2156]

pls i need help with that

[@pliskin2006]

@@reerreer2156 Love to see that someday too

[@maheeraeron9609]

Hey man, I made a comment earlier but it seemed like my issue was kinda vague. I just figured out how to reproduce my bug and was wondering if you could help me. Essentially, if I press jump and one of the WASD keys at the same time, I jump in that direction right? Well if I quickly transition to a different WASD key, my character is locked to moving towards the direction indicated by the PREVIOUS WASD key. This creates a "stuck" or "locked" direction for the character. I can stop this by simply releasing input and then resuming the WASD keys, but it's been an issue that has been bugging me for quite a while. Did I miss something in these three videos? Or is it just me?

[@CptFlatula]

Hi! Thanks for the tutorial! After some tweaks I think it looks pretty good with my custom animations. I just have a problem with the stop animations. Even if my character is running with a speed of 2, when I stop my character the stop animation is the walk to stop animation. And not the run to stop animation. Do you know how I could fix that? I tried making two different states for walking and running with no luck.

[@zeon3d755]

How can you prevent movements while in the air?

[@pierce4141]

Are you going to show how to do the Ikenima foot placement that was in the first tutorial

[@JoseRojasCh]

Did you get something about this?

[@HammaGaming]

What if the player is stuck to wall does it still run animations ??

[@johnlao4972]

Hey Filmstorm, I have a problem with my character as when it jumps from a really high place, after a few seconds it starts playing the start of the jump animation. I can't tell if the jumping loop animations are missing. I can't really find a solution. Hope you could help! Thanks a lot for your tutorials, Filmstorm!

[@Krienas]

Thanks for finalizing tutorial :) Now am looking forward for climbing system tutorial (or at least port to UE's marketplace)

[@Filmstorm]

Hi Krienas, I’ve been working away to build a climbing system like in the latest Uncharted 4 for Unreal. Bit rough round the edges but looking forward to showing it off soon! 👍🏼 thanks for watching and supporting the channel.

[@3DBlurofficial]

Can you please do Crouching and cover please?

[@tahyo777]

Is any part 4?

[@aname5449]

When I am not moving forward and jump, the character moves forward a bit. How to do I stop that from happening. Also, the Anim_WalkJLH replays on a loop after landing from not moving. Also, is there an animation for land from and into the idle position? Thanks! I watch this whole playlist and appreciate what you have given/sold.

[@sam_making_games]

What about the foot in stop Blend Space? Am I forgetting something?

[@JoseRojasCh]

Hey, did you get something about this?

[@pitbull7990]

Thank you very much for the lessons! They helped me a lot in creating a realistic system, but I had some problems in connection with which there is a request. In the collection on the marketplace, in addition to movement animations, there are a number of animations for climbing, jumping and jumping obstacles, as well as animations with a rope and a ladder (in addition to combat). Could you do lessons on these topics. I think it would be very helpful to all beginners and not only developers. Thanks in advance!

[@cyruspein7595]

is the project file still available for download? I couldn't find it on your site

[@Filmstorm]

I’ll double check and provide a new link if the old isn’t available

[@eatmylaz0r]

Awesome job, i was really looking forward to this! Are you planning in continue this tutorial series? Some things like adding combat mode, slide or ledge interactions would be a great thing to know how to use. Those tutorials with blend per bone on changing weapon type @youtube are really messy too, a bit of enlightment there would be great! I was shocked by how simple it is to settle all those things up, somehow i didn't managed to do it by myself lol Your tutos are simple, easy to catch and direct to the point, really great work. I'll for sure buy your new animation pack! Also, where are the female locomotions for open world pack man? My girl protagonist looks like a 50 year old man walking. hahahah, nah just kidding, keep it up and make an example on how animation packs should be @Unreal Engine 4!

[@Filmstorm]

Hey EatMyLazer DN, thanks for the comment! Sorry I haven't had a chance to get back to you on reddit and the unreal storepage as well - I'll reply to those as well :) Yes I am planning on creating a sliding tutorial with a narrow entrance in the mix as well - kinda like in Uncharted when you need to traverse a small space and Drake wriggles through. You'll also be happy to know that the female locos are in the new update (v1.2) and I'm just waiting for Unreal (Epic) to get the review back and publish it to the store... shouldn't be long fingers crossed! Thanks so much for the support and the questions - it means a lot! :)

[@adamsmith4982]

I know this video is pretty old but I am confused as to why you would use so many states rather than using blendspaces? For example, why not use a (idle/jog/sprint) blendspace that's setup for strafing etc, then use start/stop etc? Am I missing something?

[@lauradaura8092]

You forgot the Foot Calculation... For me it's not as smooth as I want it to be and I don't know how to change it

[@rodrigofernandes6449]

How can i stop the camera shake when im stop? All my tries end up in worse bugs. thanks

[@gamerdweebentertainment1616]

as I feared... in the future... animgraph also spiderweb, oh boy :)

[@alexjanuary4470]

Please tell me how to make "Camera Shake" not work when you press the SHIFT key. And then the character runs, the camera shakes, but as you press only SHIFT, the camera still continues to shake? (Sorry for the English. I'm just from Russia) Thank you in advance :3

[@Metalyga]

And what happens when you start button mash forawrd for eg?

[@alexjanuary4470]

Tell me, how to add squats to the logic correctly?

[@rosmanczyk]

I did this whole tutorial three times and it never worked for me. Character not going into desired directions, weird rotation issues when starting movement. Turning off RM via blueprint seems broken. I don't know what I'm doing wrong to be honest. Other than that very interesting video! Thanks for that!

[@alex-qn5xp]

I'm gonna guess you're animations didn't have any root motion.

[@alexanderyeager1441]

I am having issues with directional input only working sometimes. What's happening is if I put forward and or left or right and try to turn using mouse it won't go to the direction and at that point I can't change direction using keys. I figured it because of the animation notifies allowing and blocking etc anyone help?

[@ianmo6942]

how can i get a node like " get controller" or " get control rotation " to make a autofollow camera

[@ivancolon-morales2084]

would you be kind enough to add a shooting setup to this tutorial im curious to know how that would be done ive never worked with root motion in this maner so i have no idea how to set that up please and thank you

[@sam_making_games]

You sire are my hero! Good day to you m8!

[@sam_making_games]

I'm still taking answers to my question in the previous part though...

[@Filmstorm]

Hi Sam! Thanks for kind words, what was your question I can’t seem to see the question in the previous video 👍🏼

[@NocteStudios]

Hello Filmstorm. May i ask how can i use this setup for rotation based movement. I'm not sure if there is a word for it but i want to see the character from his back all the time. I don't want him to look at me ever. It's not using the correct stop animations when i activate the use controller rotation yaw option. Any idea would be helpful. Regards!

[@Filmstorm]

Hi Nocte, so you’re after a strafe based movement system? Like gears of war, fixed camera behind the player? To do this, you don’t even need to worry about the rotation, you can setup a animation blendspace to handle the strafe movement and like you mentioned with the controller rotation yaw, you can lock it to achieve the look you’re after. There’s a bit more work that needs to go into it, such as when you’re idling and rotation the camera, you can setup the character to take steps as the camera rotates around. However I think if you focus on setting up the general strafing it will make it easier to see what else you need to do to refine the controller. I wrote an article about strafe systems in Unreal a while ago, we are in the middle of changing domains but you can view it here to help out: filmstormau.blogspot.com/2018/08/creating-strafe-movement-system-in.html

Will there be a part 4?

Love the videos and the animations but how do u set up the crouch

[@DangleDuffy]

Will there ever be a part 4 to this series?

[@rain-hg8ro]

Pls somebody help ima beginner how can i make a sprint animation like that?

[@CrazyKiLL3R44]

Is it possible to increase the movement speed of the character without increasing the rate of the animation ? I'm currently having two modes for my character and one of them must double the speed of all movements. But, with the use of root motion, it seems that the speed is related to the animation itself. Is there a way to keep the same rate of the anims but simply make the character translate faster into space ? Ty for the tutorials by the way ;)

[@paucsgj7348]

Great job

[@TaleyaGames]

make a tutorial to add crouch, crouch walk and prone, bro

[@Mikester4411]

I've completed all parts of this tutorial series, and watched through it again to see where I went wrong and I still don't see it, but for some reason when I press S to go back it will start moving either left or right instead of backwards?

[@alex-qn5xp]

@@mahkhardy8588 That's due to your animations, you need to put a lot of time into the ones you make to get the movement/rotation of the root bone working.

[@artcadev]

Its this viable for a 2.5D platformer game using same logic for this root motion but instead in a 2.5D game? Or how hard would to apply it into such example, also since you are already promoting an Animation Platformer Pack it might be neat. Thanks you!

[@talaesenlikler5639]

Nice tutorial! When will you update the open world animset pro? Idle to crouch, Idle to prone etc. Animations would be cool 😎

[@Filmstorm]

Hey Tala, currently this a new version waiting to be reviewed by Unreal - it has those animations + female movement, weapons, strafing and more! Hopefully they review it soon :)

[@talaesenlikler5639]

Filmstorm Nice! Can you also make a short tutorial for dedicated servers?

[@steadystefano]

Hi I applied the your root motion in my crouching system it works perfectly, thank you for tutorial a big help for the community, when will be the part 4? :)

[@Filmstorm]

Great new Stephen! Glad to hear it! I’m aiming to have the next one (part 4) up this week 👍🏼

[@steadystefano]

nice, are you including the quick turns and lean? though I haven't test it on my side

[@swashbucklingfox]

@@Filmstorm what happened to part 4? my character isnt turning fully to the correct direction on the start moves. if i press 180 he turns about 135-ish

[@idirbelaid2837]

amazing tutorial, are you still active ? friend.

[@Jabberhopper]

Hey. I'm having trouble with the cover animation from this pack, i have cover working, but the animation Anim_CoverWRS stopps way way through, whilst Anim_CoverWLS is longer length and works fine?

[@Filmstorm]

Hmm the did clips length get changed accidentally, just checked on my system and the lengths are pretty much the same... try increasing the time it might help. 👍🏼

[@Jabberhopper]

Not 100% sure how to increase the time, Anim_CoverWLS is 0.667seconds and Anim_CoverWRS is 0.467seconds

[@steadystefano]

Nice, will tackle a lean while running or jogging in the the root animation series?, thank you sir

[@sam_making_games]

Where were you couple of months ago when I was trying to do the same thing then again, back then I had no Idea about what root motion is.

[@steadystefano]

Hi, We have a green light to purchase your animset, when will be the nexr tutorial, are going to tackle the quick turn 180 and the lean when running? Thanks

[@talaesenlikler5639]

Hey i found a little bug on my project which i did not change anything i did exactly the same of this video. The bug is like when i jumped it's okay, but if i want to change my direction as soon as landing, the character moves only forward and i need to stop then press key again. Do you have this bug too? How can i solve that? A little bit help would be awesome :)

[@TrinhStudios]

I also had this bug, it might come late but I fixed this by adding an "allowrotation" notifier somewhere at the start of the jump animation. This would fix the problem of the character moving forward as if it's in some kind of endless runner.

[@steadystefano]

Hello, I have some concern, after finishing your tutorial when I'm testing the root motion I cannot move without moving the mouse first are you experiencing this? ty

[@Filmstorm]

Hi Stephen, sounds like the input axis you are using is the mouse rather than keyboard / gamepad. This would be the only thing that is affecting this. Just double check and it should fix your problem :)

[@steadystefano]

got it, Thank you

[@steadystefano]

what node would that be? is the input axis? ty

[@Filmstorm]

So from tutorial one, where we setup left right action input and up down action input. You can check by going to - edit -> project settings -> input -> action mapping’s and then change from mouse to keyboard inputs like a & d for left and right and w & s for up and down. This will then hook up into those action modes from the beginning of tutorial part 1. 👍🏼

[@steadystefano]

I found out the problem in 4.19 the PIE starts with "Click for mouse control" my inputs are in keyboard and gamepad, how do I disable this "Click for mouse control"?, ty in advance

[@ianmo6942]

Great tutorial man but I have some problems :( I followed the tutorial step by step but in the end, if I press "A" or "D" one time on my keyboard my character starting to play turn animation and revolves around itself. How to fix that? I guess it goes from Event tick

[@TrinhStudios]

25:50, make sure you setup your states correctly. Mine started spinning around because I forgot the time remaining (ratio)

[@KarenKawas]

I followed this tutorial two times. First time everything worked just fine. Second time had this problem. I'm pretty sure I missed something in the states. If you found the reason why this happens please let me know.

[@himanshurathore843]

Why you were not making a mobile game with these insane animation. If you make an open world game like pubg iy definetly br the best

[@midnightcontroll]

Hello Filmstorm. I have a Problem. So when my Character is falling from very heigh it is playing the Start of the animation every few seconds. What can I do so this doesn't happen?

[@Filmstorm]

To fix this problem, you’ll need to change the animation curve values for your jumping and falling animations to 0. This will stop the snapping when the player approaches the ground while falling. 👍🏻

[@midnightcontroll]

Hey thanks for the Reply. I'm trying it later. Awesome tutorial @@Filmstorm

So I was looking to fix the problem but I have difficulties to find how to change the animation curve values. I would appreciate if you could help me. :) @@Filmstorm

[@Haemish98]

@@midnightcontroll Hey man, did you ever fix this as I am having the same issue

[@midnightcontroll]

@@Haemish98 unfortunately I didn't. I moved on after I tried it for two days. I made my own jump animation and used the logic from the third person template. Meaning I made a Jump start, jump loop and jump end. Mainly because I didn't know how to change animation curves.
