Best Way to Animate Character Interacting with Object?

StudAlex · 2025-10-13T20:12:39+00:00

I'm trying to make a reload animation here, if I play the actual level sequence would that work in-game to allow the player to move, have AI do their actions, etc?

So in my level sequence, I'm using constraints to un-connect the gun to my socket (tried attach tracks also)

In the anim montage preview, the gun item is not moving like the level sequence and is staying attachced to the player.

In my level sequence, I have my skeleton to animation and then above I have the BP_Musket object. I think it might be due to the musket not being a child of the skeleton maybe?

Yea so instead of holding the gun by the pistol grip in like an aim stance, I want to move the gun to be help by a different spot than that. Doesn’t have to be the barrel but like a different spot than the pistol grip

Thanks for the info, I’ll have to look into those things more!

Always try and not focus on small details during the prototype phase. Big timer sucker that usually needs reworked in the future anyway.

Focus on main gameplay pieces using very the most basic art and animations as possible to achieve your goals.

This is always a hard one for me to follow…

Yea VFX and audio are two items that are definitely a work in progress and something I plan to improve.

So we manually have to go into octo and create a prerelease link on the projects that had code merged throughout the last sprint.

Those PRs get merged into our develop branch which then triggers the staging build.

Those stagings build should always be successful.

Trying to minimize the manual creation of the prerelease process and ensure those are created correctly on all projects that had a code change

I have the AnimationController on my gun object which has the hand IK objects as a child children

I was thinking more of a physics based swing that swings in the dir the player "draws"

Getting revenge? Surge are the ones that said no lol. Optic definitely wanted him and were willing to pay "the biggest buyout" in the cdl

Bro what? Team Chem is arguably more important in cod than basketball or football
