This tutorial explains in detail how to use the Hands for VR assets with the Unreal Engine 4 VR Template

[@ValensethGames]

Tried to fix this issue last night for 5 hours last night on my own using my own hands and animations, and I didnt know about setting the animation class in the motion controller BP, just happened to stumble upon this tutorial this morning lol. Thanks a bunch man, I was tearing my hair out over this.

[@tuomaskarmakallio]

Appreciate the video, we will be trying it out tomorrow : )

[@bobcharlotte8724]

Trying this tonight.. very excited!

[@jean-francoisheurtaux6994]

Thanks for this explanation and the steps

[@dlalleman3874]

Thank you very much sir! This helped me out a lot.

Hi, just purchased and implemented in 4.24 -- hands work, and looks like a great asset except grip doesn't work and I'm getting a Blueprint Runtime Error: "Attempted to assign to None". Blueprint: BP_MotionController Function: Execute Ubergraph BP Motion Controller Graph: EventGraph Node: Set GripState - I've checked the variable, seems to be set, any ideas? Thanks!

[@FitGameDeveloper]

Thanks, this worked for me! Could you create a video for setting up individual fingers?

[@Cykyria]

Sure, I'll see what I can do in the near future :)

[@Kuhakuro]

Thanks you for your tutorial! It helped a ton! I made my own hand meshes and animated them. The right hand is fine, but the left hand is rotated by 180°, even though I followed all the steps. Any idea what he problem might be?

[@Kuhakuro]

UPDATE: If anyone else has this problem, simply add a "SetWorldRotation" in the BP_MotionController Blueprint and tweak the Values for the left hand until solved. (Might or might not be the best solution, but it works!)

[@scavnox]

Thanks, that fixed mine

[@hankl8459]

Omg you're so amazing

[@KenzieSFT]

Hey, I'm stuck because my hands, custom, just continually animate. When looking at the animation BP, I can't seem to get "grip" as an option in there at all. I have copy/pasted the blueprints. Could be that I'm on a much later version, but stuck right now.

[@lineline3651]

hi im right now at the same point did you get it to work?

[@NickCrist]

Could you put the download link for the hands In description?

[@VRBen]

The links are in the description? Hands for VR Basic: www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/slug/hands-for-vr-basic Hands for VR SciFi: www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/slug/hands-for-vr-scifi

想問一下 手的部分需要綁定骨架動畫嗎?

[@VRBen]

我必须在手机上连接一个骨架动画吗？ 它有一个骨架和一个拳头的位置。 It is a rigged hand model with open and closed hand positions.

[@EpicGaming211]

I am working on a project and need help. I am adjusting my world to meters for a project(From 100 to 40), but when I do so the hands are way too big to use for what I need. Scaling them in multiple locations doesn't seem to help. Any way you could help me?

[@Cykyria]

Scaling them to 0.4 should do the trick. If not, please send me a PM in the Unreal Engine forum.

[@rctrickstipsfun6504]

its not working anymore with 4.18? i get a message after compiling:projectpointtonavigationpoint is deprecated. use new version. Do you know what that means?

[@Cykyria]

did you upgrade your project from a previous version of Unreal? This is most likely unrelated to the Hands, but this should help you fix or at least nail down the problem: open BP_MotionController/TraceTeleportDestination and search and replace the deprecated ProjectPointToNavigation with the new one. You can create a fresh VR Template project and compare its blueprint with yours. Hope that helps!

[@rctrickstipsfun6504]

hi thanks for the reply. No i didnt upgrade the project from a previous one. I am using now the plugin VR of mordentral: forums.unrealengine.com/development-discussion/vr-ar-development/89050-vr-expansion-plugin/page126 it might have something to do with the fact i use this format, or do you think the VRhands work here too? The template in itself is the same, so i didnt expect problems.

[@Cykyria]

Well, I guess it's the same then, only in another blueprint from this plugin. Or maybe in C++ code from this plugin. I have tested everything with 4.18, so it shouldn't give any errors. If you send me the whole log or console output from your packaging process I can tell you maybe: [e-mail]

[@rctrickstipsfun6504]

thanks a lot for the help! i have to leave this project for a few days. I will let you know soon, and provide you the log. Its a template people use more and more, because the VR possibilites are far more advanced then the standard UE4 VR template

[@yussifjaber7915]

Is this based on gloves or controllers?

[@blubear1225]

controllers

[@jialinyeh]

手的模型是免費的嗎?

[@VRBen]

手部模型是免费的吗？ 不，它可以从Unity或Unreal购买。 No, you can buy it on Unreal Marketplace or Unity Assetstore

[@GodLikeChannel.]

could you send to me model file? Thanks!

[@Cykyria]

You can simply export the FBX via right-click menu on the asset

[@GodLikeChannel.]

I have model but it have not animation. :( should i can't make follow tutorial. :|

[@empire6362]

08:29 this dont work for me

[@francrespo7820]

Did you find a solution?

[@tcla75]

There is no BS_male_r_grab

[@tcla75]

Never mind. Everything didn't add in a 4.14 project so I just created a 4.13 project and migrated it over.
