Random thing, if you haven't experimented with using ControlRig to animate in-engine yet, highly recommended. That completely upended how I approach game animation uh, like forever? Absolutely incredible set of tools.

Break through. Spent large part of the week not having success getting Root Yaw Offset applied to the actual character without horrible contortions, but then it clicked yesterday. Quite a big difference with than without it!

Gaits for Dinobird: Walking, Running, and Sprinting. This was refreshingly straight forward compared to RootYaw and Jumping, and it works pretty well with the other systems with no nasty surprises. A good week!

I built myself an animation rig in Unreal / ControlRig. I do all my animation in-engine now. You can link an animation timeline to a specific animation sequence asset, after which any changes you make in the timeline auto-export into the animation. Great for iterative approaches to animation.

Character modelling and skinning in Blender. Rigging and animation done in Unreal, with ControlRig as the tool I used to build the rig.

I'm finally developing a deep, abiding, painful understanding of what "rigging" as opposed to "skinning"
It's fun! ControlRig makes this shit so good, and animating in Unreal is going to be great!
But.
I will never type "skinning/rigging" like they're basically the same task, EVER, again.

This is more the goal. Short legs, short stride, on a character who moves the same speed as any other class despite being half the size of everyone else, so patpatpatpatpatpatpat.
Tail motion (bit too much here) is from my custom ControlRig logic that auto-wiggles the tail as I animate. It's FANCY.

The only one I'd point out is that ControlRig is still improving
For me I'm using StateTree and same there, but I think you're using SUSS instead for that so it's irrelevant
Btw you looked into the mobile renderer at all? Seems like that would suit you better?

This does literally have me sighing and gradually backing out of using Unreal as my animation tool / bidding goodbye to ControlRig, and simply learning Blender instead, as a prelude to the seemingly inevitable hop to Godot if/when the bullshit truly starts
Cus wow, that's a hell of a thing to state

Yep! I built the rig in ControlRig.
Though if your skelly matches the unreal Manny you can use the anim rig they already built just ready to go for humanoid anim

UE5 MetaHumanのControlRigを使ってアニメーションを作成する方法 - 電通総研 テックブログ
こんにちは、電通総研金融ソリューション事業部の岡崎です。 今回はUE5のMetaHumanとControlRigを使って簡単なアニメーションを作成する方法を紹介します。 アニメーションを本格的にゼロから作るためには、本来はUE以外のツールを使用して作成することが一般的ですが、 簡単な動きの場合はUEだけで作ることができます。 本記事ではMetaHumanがお辞儀をしたり、既存のアニメーションにアレンジを加えて、しゃがみながら歩行する方法などを紹介します。 検証環境/ツール OS：Windows 11 pro GPU：NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti CPU：i9-12900…

Honestly I bet it's dead easy to get it to 80% with a small data set, 90% with some ControlRig magic, and that the remaining 10% is where it gets Rough, because you have to get the body posture mid-transition to read with the appropriate exertion.
(but I'd nope out at 90% cus lol I ain't AAA hehe)

Started implementing Jump Wed last week, figuring it was gonna be relatively easy and fast. I was wrong, so so wrong. But after three days of banging my head against the wall, the wall fell.
Now Murder bird can jump, jump, jump

Mmmm, I mean I'd really recommend upgrading. No particular reason to stay on 5.1 usually, and the engine got a LOT more stable at 5.2 and 5.3.
and as was mentioned PCG is incredibly useful, ControlRig got some upgrades, etc.
Even if they mess up UE6, you'd still want to be up on the latest 5.x heh

Honestly I've considered doing it, because SO LONG AS you've got an animation pool of the poses, it isn't that bad!
I think anyways.
I bet I could make a janky indie good enough take anyways, especially with ControlRig.

I can’t seem to find any answers on this even on the discord.
Does anyone familiar with control rig know if it’s possible to attach a single control (not the whole rig and not setting a location) to another actor (during gameplay)?
