@AndrewNick21727 yes, everything related to camera is procedural in engine

[Nikolay Salikhov @techAnim_diary]

A small Eva traversal test. #UE5

[Nikolay Salikhov @techAnim_diary]

@agvanimation It's beautiful, compadre!

[Nikolay Salikhov @techAnim_diary]

@SANTA4o4 @KielFiggins Thanks. Yes, it's just skinned mesh and joints export

[Nikolay Salikhov @techAnim_diary]

It's a bird, it's a plane... Just a small traversal prototype. Samurai rig by @KielFiggins, had to rig the wings though) #UE5

[Nikolay Salikhov @techAnim_diary]

@gibb09 @KielFiggins Thanks! No sequencer. I used Camera Manager BP for more complex camera settings and calculations based on the character animation and states

@animturnbull @KielFiggins Thanks, Adam)

[Nikolay Salikhov @techAnim_diary]

@brendancaseyart @SPRWtv Thank you. It's a part of the samurai rig. I added additional mesh and joints to his rig

@EvaSeyeux @KielFiggins Thanks, Eva)

@AlonHelman Thanks, bud)

@KielFiggins Thanks Twitter for the weird video quality https://t.co/3CLm5RPEgN

[Nikolay Salikhov @techAnim_diary]

@KielFiggins Thank you, sir)

[Nikolay Salikhov @techAnim_diary]

@h_chin_1 @KielFiggins No IK, just different turn animations

[Nikolay Salikhov @techAnim_diary]

@volodXYZ @KielFiggins Didn't use Physics Component, just rigid body simulation. Blending back is done with the node Set Physics Blend Weight, where the blend weight float is controled by a curve in animation

[Nikolay Salikhov @techAnim_diary]

Better not mess with Lyette - the angry mail carrier. Rig by @KielFiggins #UE5

[Nikolay Salikhov @techAnim_diary]

@volodXYZ @KielFiggins The reassemble is blending those separate pieces back to animation pose, hiding them at a specific moment and showing the main body mesh again

[Nikolay Salikhov @techAnim_diary]

@volodXYZ @KielFiggins Thanks. Each enemy has a second rig where each rock mesh is skinned to a separate joint without any hierarchy, during Death animation the main body is hidden, while these separate pieces are shown and simulated.

@di_angeel @GiacomoLiberio Thanks! yes, it's all gameplay

[Nikolay Salikhov @techAnim_diary]

Spider-Punk is in a rush. Just a small traversal prototype. Thanks, @GiacomoLiberio for the Spidey model. #UE5

[Nikolay Salikhov @techAnim_diary]

@Supra69Z @KielFiggins a bit of both. there is recoil on animation but it's being extended or shortened in code based on the attack
