Nice tutorial! Thanks for that!

[@IDoNotExyst]

Thank you, this worked super well for me!

[@deanmartinez2488]

MEEEEN... YOU SAVE MY LIFE BRO. "RETRIGGABLE DELAY" IS THE ANSWER TO ALL MY QUESTIONS XD

[@OddPhishGames]

Great tips, thanks dude!

[@MrInternetMan]

Love that you just had me do all this work only for the comments to tell me that it's deprecated. Good stuff.

[@skrylla]

lol

[@Sacrentice]

Exellent tutorial! Thank you

[@SkemeKOS]

Thank you! Subscribed

[@nexus2574]

Excellent tutorial, man! Could you show us how to create delay combos?

[@omarmartinez5153]

One little advice to make your tutorials way more powerful. Please explain why you're enabling things like root motion, I had to research the why to be able to understand it. Very important piece of information because it answered one of my biggest questions. I was trying figure this out for a while. Thanks!

[@AstrumSensei]

Thanks for the tip! I'll keep that in mind while recording!

[@Armada0500]

If u r using ur own AnimBP, remembet to insert a Slot between the Main State and the Result node in the AnimGraph

[@alexp.m.730]

thank you :)

[@DATBOYCONROY]

how? im stuck lol

[@sushantreddy3205]

Thanks a lot! I was stuck here

[@MrInternetMan]

Yes, how?

[@Armada0500]

@@MrInternetMan Go to your character's Animation Blueprint > AnimGraph > Insert a Slot between the Main States and the Output Pose. You can find a better explanation if you see some tutorials about animation montages.

[@saigerakoski9912]

this video rips thank you

[@Enderking394]

Can I do this with root motion because root motion breaks my model (I’ve tried many fixes but none work)

[@roydash5657]

Please I am really needs your help. If you making this tutorial I will so grateful for you and supported you! Please.. You can make a tutorial about a character from the ground picking up some weapons and using them. Different weapons sword, pistol and axe. And each weapon will have its own animation without the inventory system, but each weapon will be activated with buttons. For example the Q button of the gun and the R button of the ax and the T button of the Hammer to attack. Like in Bloodborne, dmc and dark souls

[@richardreis7460]

how can i make a system to use diferent animation for diferent weapons?

[@L66633]

Where did you get the animations from?

[@MarquoVitali]

no matter what I do I can always interrupt the animation. the first trigger plays through works normally but if I press it again it sets attacking to true then immediately to false

[@michaeltazor]

Hey , i followed you but why i cannot get can attack again notify in my ABP ?

[@thesleeplesscause7284]

yea im in the same boat dude! any help out there?

[@benikeler]

The only way I could get this to work was to put the notify in the base animation file and not in the anim montage. After that it appeared in the event graph in my animation BP. I also had to restart UE.

[@TolisPiperas82]

Will you return to tutorials? We wait to teach us the like-soul game you saw us in past...

[@user-sm8rq5mx5q]

alguien sabe por que las paredes del UE5 su sombra se pone como muy oscura y si voy hacia la sombra literal el personaje se esconde 😭

[@EZTutorialsOnline]

Nice!

[@AstrumSensei]

Thanks!

[@Enderking394]

My custom model doesn’t work with root motion animations, the game depends on my player character and I don’t know how to fix it. The animations just get glitchy when I check the root motion checkbox

[@AstrumSensei]

It depends on how the rig was named/setup too for completely custom characters

[@3ddesigner2]

Why not just using the (on notify begin) output from play montage node?

[@thesleeplesscause7284]

can you explain? im in 5.3 an this isnt working im curious if you have the magic information !!

[@Xenoblade_Natsu]

So I copied this guide to a T, yet my animation just doesn't play for the attack. I've gone back to this to check if I missed anything but so far I can't find anything I've missed.

[@bignickreacts]

Thankyou for this I'm gonna go through this give it ago my question is tho. Now with enhanced input and axis mapping depreciated is there not an alternative method to this now? 🤔 I'm new to it all so I'm still tryna make sense of the old and new tutorials with ue4/5/5.1 😂😅

[@onimanga5197]

i keep having the same issue

[@CroissantEdit]

I can't find the animation notf

[@Jordo95]

this dude sounds like Greirat from Dark Souls 3, its cool.

[@sbfl4sh349]

i cant find my animation notifier why ? pls help

[@LordKrhonos]

I was having this issue because I forgot to retarget my animations for UE5, using the UE5 Manny skeleton.

[@ChronoSphinx]

it doesn't work for me in 5.3 ?

[@flatinumfox]

action mappings are deprecated. Input Action Mapping is pretty powerful, though

[@user-fh3fx3zs7c]

perfeact

[@gamesstreamer2153]

DUDE IM DOING STEP BY STEP AND AT THE END WHEN YOU ADDING SET ATACKING I CANT ADD THAT IN ANIMATION BLUPRIT I GOT ERROR WTF PLS HELP!!!!!!!!!

[@devryu9280]

you need chatgpt bro

[@Deebo019]

same :/

[@Deebo019]

[@Deebo019]

nvm it wont let me connect it

[@Deebo019]

if you figured out how to fix it could you please help me out

[@thesleeplesscause7284]

is it only me that cant find "eventNotify Can Attack Again" ? everything else is smooth until this option an i dont have this option. ive watched this 3 times already now im just confused

[@surfinjoka]

when you go to ABP Manny make sure you click on "Event Graph" on the left side and try to search for it. You should find it there.

[@LyteRetro]

@@surfinjoka i still couldnt get it to work after that

[@senseoffender9655]

it isn't showing up for me either, did you find a solution?

[@ZimMabu_GameDev.]

hey thanks man! wahtsup?

[@hlinabkt18]

you are my daddy

[@user-ic8ch7bj8h]

oppppppppppppppppppppppppp

[@Rehd66]

Why do you KZbinrs keep teaching people to use action mappings when it's been deprecated for the last like 3 or 4 versions? It literally says it right there in your Project settings. You're meant to use Enhanced Input and it's better anyway.

[@AstrumSensei]

Technically I ignored it because this was recorded early into the 5.1 life cycle and it was before I digged into it. But I did teach the Enhanced Input in my upcoming series (which will come after a few more videos on Patreon). But also let's not ignore the fact that Enhanced Inputs take much longer to setup which is kind of time consuming in quick videos.
