Weapon Sway in UE4- THE CORRECT WAY | Black Ops Zombies in UE4 #6

[@kendarr]

If using UE5, get AI_Look, break to vector 2D, follow the video. Also if your gun blueprint is rotated the wrong way, just rotate it on the blueprint it self (correct?I don't know it worked)

[@TrespasserAlt]

how do i get the AI_look? you misspelled it i think, its IA_Look

[@stabbedbyapanda]

This worked for me, and it was IA_Look, you use it to replace "Get Look UP"(Y Value replaces this one) and "Get Turn"(X Value replaces this one)

[@alphashow5046]

Have you found better fix for the gun rotation ? If so, please share, I would appreciate a lot

[@Bazztoner]

I really like these tutorials but I feel they should be a little longer to explain some of the logic behind them, just to not be like copying and pasting nodes. Maybe in your course this is different, tho!

[@notwods]

I’d have to disagree, though I get where you’re coming from. I personally think the short format works well for these types of videos, given it’s not a very complex system

[@CanCodeyt]

easy, quick, and strait to the point thank u

[@cedricson968]

Has anyone figured out how to do the exact same thing for the arms? I'm having a weird issue where my arms completely disappear..

[@morganlak4337]

You can also do a blendspace in an animation blueprint which is what I would personally consider the "right" way since you have a lot more control. But this is good too

[@CobbDev]

Yes, using a blend space as additive animations is also a very viable way of achieving this effect. I would argue the amount of work it takes outweighs the extra control since you have to make the 4-8 animation poses yourself. Of course it's a case by case basis, but this method will work for most projects just fine

[@tetmayer2015]

Great tutorial! IMO setting negative values for dragging motion is way more natural

[@freakfreakfreak_]

if you're in ue5.1 you'll need "get IA_Look" then "Break Vector 2D" and follow how Cobb Dev multiplied into set final rot

[@Shykar0]

Thats a wonderful advice thank you so much! How did you use the get relative rotation one though? thanks!

[@Shykar0]

Forget my question, UE didnt recommend the option to me :^) ur comment was nonetheless super helpful!

[@andrewrodman38]

Question, when I aim up/down, drag is the top left corner or bottom right corner, never directly up or down. Any fix?

[@hasanbasryand6880]

Hello. I have a question. I could not import animations that consist of more than one piece in blender, such as the rotation of gear wheels, into the unreal engine. So the pieces were imported, but the animation does not work, and for animation to be an animation, they must be in their parts separately. How can I make them one piece and make the animation work? I want to. You can also suggest an instructive resource that you know. Have a nice day

[@CobbDev]

Were the pieces imported separately? When importing the fbx make sure to choose "combine meshes" so it imports as one mesh

[@MrChipoclas]

great tutorials I liked the results very much

[@lukaaleksic4242]

I would pay money for these tutorials

[@alphashow5046]

Why when looking up and down it seems to freeze a bit, but it not as smooth as horizontal for sure, any fix?

[@craigroostan9646]

i cant find the values get turn and get look up

[@aice23]

It's his names for his camera axis mappings, Get turn = Look Right/Left and Get look up = Look Up/Down

[@stig6339]

it works but weapon model rotates 90 degrees when i start the game and i cannot fix that

[@arturosukovich3047]

same here, except it doesn't sway at all for me.

[@stig6339]

@@arturosukovich3047 i managed to make it work in a starter first person project But in my custom project it still doesn't work Author should've explained it better

[@stig6339]

@@arturosukovich3047 dude if you're still interested kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5LLko2Ia7qgrtE here i found a better solution it's better cuz it's simple and work via animation blueprint and not some weird characterBP functions but's it's for fps character with arms

[@aaronrizzo655]

I had the same issue. Make sure all your animations are facing positive X when they're brought into Unreal. I made arm animations in blender facing positive Y and I rotated the model about the z axis in Unreal to compensate, but that caused the same issue when I implemented this code. I had to go through all my blender animations and re-orient them and re-import.

[@m4dm3rt56]

You just need to put an subtract after the clamp (float) that goes into the make rotator at the end and put the rotation you want your 3D model to rotate to. In my case I had do put 90 in it so it faces always the front. Hope that helps, even if the discussion is 1 year old.

[@ChickentNug]

is it possible to kind of feather the ends of the sway "animation" so it isn't so abrupt stopping?

[@meestuinier4486]

After 2 hours of struggles this is working for me. The issue that remains is that the sway only seems to work at 2fps. The motion is really snappy. The rest of the scene is running buttery smooth, any thoughts?

[@iHavo]

You've likely fixed it by now but just in case, that would be in your "RInterp To", your Interp Speed setting. In this video he set it to 2.5, though I promoted to variable and messed around with it a bit!

[@nicolaykoriagin]

Brilliant. Thank you very much!

[@stormstudios1]

how would we add arms to it and be able to customize the arms look

[@kendarr]

My arms and gun are parented together, I wonder if this will look odd, will try, thank you.

[@Minty375]

have you fixed being able to ads while switching weapons or did I just miss that in one of the videos?

[@s3armoredyt849]

hello i know its a bit late but if your still looking for problem. after the equip animation finishes you place "player controller" node with "is key input down" make sure the key is the aiming key, place a branch node and attach the return value of the "is key input down" as the condition. plug in the true to "ADS" custom event

[@nature4675]

Is you zombie game dev course is applicable for unreal 5

[@fuzzypanda1684]

I'm having trouble getting the characters hands to attach to the weapon, the weapon placement is attached to the camera so you can't use a socket from the mesh, I can't figure out how to get the gun to be in the characters hands! Please continue the series so we can use this system because it's a nice system.

[@Lewis-dq2xb]

They call it the swimming effect.. you need to use virtual bones with sockets to stop it. See unreal documents on virtual bones.

[@fuzzypanda1684]

@@Lewis-dq2xb Thanks! I've seen some videos on virtual bones but never dived on too deep because many of them took you to Blender and I'm not very good with Blender. But I'll have to check it out and see what can be done in Unreal. I did eventually get it "good enough" just by playing with the animations and gun placement for many hours. It looks good enough that you wouldn't really notice the guns not actually attached unless someone told you or you looked hard.

[@finngomezgamer]

Can you do a tutorial on how to make the bote horse mechanics?

[@sirgwindortvinuel]

for some reason my gun turns upside down when i press play you know why?

[@OpenMawProductions]

This makes the default UE4 gun point off to the right. Very strange!

[@OpenMawProductions]

Ah! I see. The reason it does that is because the default UE4 weapon and its hand are rotated slightly to fit on the screen best. Is there a way to over-ride the "zero" for where the model is pointed and use that as the "zero" instead? I was trying to figure out how that might be done, but I didn't have any luck.

[@_g_boi_]

@@OpenMawProductions You could create a scene component thats at 0 and parent the mesh under it and then use the scene component for the calculation instead of the actual mesh that is slightly off

if you never figured it out sorry for the late response but you have to create an axis value in your project settings called turn and assign it to mouse x then it will be there

Can i do this In ue5

[@moritztorsiep5161]

Great Tutorial. Fast and effective. In my opinion a bit too fast. I kind of like to be able to follow the tutorial in realtime and not having to stop every 5 to 10 seconds so I can catch up. This might give you more time to explain some of the stuff you are doing. But thats just a minor complaint. Keep up the good work :)

[@ayoubtouaty8255]

Hello i love your videos 😍. Can you do a tut about how to set up a second camera for fps or separate fov to avoid weapon clipping into the wall .it will be a great video as usual 😇

[@CobbDev]

Sadly, Unreal Engine doesn't support this type of rendering (blanking on the name at the moment) like Unity does. The best workaround in my opinion is to make the gun smaller so it fits inside your character's capsule. If the pivot point of the gun is the same as the camera, it won't appear any smaller in game. This is how old Call of Duty (and many other) games set up their first person characters.

[@ayoubtouaty8255]

@@CobbDev but it can be done in c++ right?

[@CobbDev]

@@ayoubtouaty8255 No, it has nothing to do with the programming language. The engine is simply not built to render things on separate layers with separate cameras

[@ayoubtouaty8255]

@@CobbDev mmmm no wonder every ue game doesn't use this method

[@salsalvador8317]

@@ayoubtouaty8255 there are actually 3 main ways to avoid weapon clipping 1) make arms and weapon smaller and closer to camera (not recommended as it might result bad looking) 2) create a specific material that will make your camera always see the weapon in front of whatever there is behind (recommended method) here is the tutorial kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKLJq6l-eMipkNU or 3) you can simply make an animation that will mechanically avoid the clipping by rotating the arms and the weapon upward or downward
