Or use the Aim constraint to make your character aim perfectly at a target. It's a very impressive package that will definitely help add tons of polish to your games and it's pretty easy to use.

Great and comprehensive tutorial! (As always)

At last 😍😍😍 I was waiting for this. Thank you so much sir ❤️❤️

Been waiting for this thank you

perfect video, i didn;t expect so much and so easy info when i tried to watch it

I guess it took a long time for you to make this. Appreciate the effort. Waiting for a course next year combing all these 3D tutorials and that 2D RPG stuff like inventory in a more guided path :)

This is really well documented. Took some random placeholder model and it looks to the position of the target object. Thanks!

Awesome! Finally you created it

Omg I'm very early and this looks very helpful

as always, v grateful. such a powerful package, and fun too.

Thank you very much, I was able to find a video of the Unity animation after I saw your kitchen project, and it was very detailed. I've been looking for other places for a long time, but I can't get started.

Cool!This tutorial is so helpful!

Such powerful beautiful package.

Thanks for the video! The offset is given as rotation, so the x, y and z are in degrees.

I think the most amazing thing about this is that all physics parts of this really advanced game engine is in its most basic form, simple math. It can produce amazing results but animations if you strip them down is just a TON of simple mathematical operations on top of eachother. Just a thought.

Very useful video, thank you

Most usefull video. Thanks

I can see the potential of this animation rig package. Do you think it's a good idea to achive a full body first person animaton using this package? In a lot of FPS games, the player has no body mesh and often casts no shadow. If we use this package, we can just make the head follow the rotation of the camera. No more complex setup for mirror reflection and realistic shadow for the player body?😄

Awesome!

This is so Cool and Nice :D This is what i need to add to my Racing game hehe, to get a Driver to properly animate with the Steering-Wheel and live too if needed :) also to animate all other stuff wildlife etc but to also dynamic like this in animation :D btw nice background with starts is that included too?

does your course over the new shadergraph as its quite different these days?

13:40 I think the offset here means an EulerAngle rotation offset in degrees, hence why -50 in X means looking up, and why 1 in Y barely does anything (it just turns the head by 1 degree)

Very good

Great

the aiming thing is what ive been wondering how to do, but the IK leg thing has made me curious now, does that work with a walking animation? or would it be for some kind procedural walking thing in place of animations?

Sure, you can play around with the Weight in an animation and animate the leg going up wth the animation, and going down to hit the ground perfectly with IK

Do you know why i can't change the hips position with TwoBoneIKConstraint? Only the rotation works.

13:13 I think the reason its behaving that way is because the offset is the rotation of the constrained object, not the position of the target.

Great guide, when i aim with avatar mask, my character is a bit looking left. I downloaded the animation from mixamo, and original animation was looking a little left, I fixed it by going animation settings and Set Root Transform Rotation to Original to fix. But when i add rig, its working like in the original looking a bit left. This is happening because of avatar mask.

Do you have to install Burst package for use this one ?

I was thinking for third person you could do something like raycasting out from the camera to the center point of the reticle and then move the animation target to the impact point to have your character aim where the reticle is pointing. There is possibly a cheaper way to do it by just having pre set target position a long way in the distance that just moves with the character but not sure if it would look as good.

For the Cabal-styled shooter I am making, I actually did something similar to this. Raycast from the camera, have player look at that collision point, and an invisible "wall" at a set distance for the areas that have no objects to raycast onto (such as a skybox). Now, no matter where my character is on the screen, if I can click on an object, I can shoot the object. Feels good.

i have an issue where when i apply the aim constraint to the head, this constraint totally overrides the head's animation only when the target is in front of the player. but when i move the target to the player's side, the head's animation starts playing. the more i move the target to the player's side, the more the head's animation plays. the head's animation in my case is rotating the head slightly down then back to zero. the head's aim is perfect though. so my question is why when the target is in front of the character, his head animation is being totally overriden. while if the target changed to the side, the animation played? hope you understood my issue =] thanks for your tutorials~

Transform 'Gun' not found in HumanDescription. when added the gun inside the character object

when using different animation for top and bottom part of the body, using animation layers, it does not quite look right.

hello codeMonkey, I have a problem, when I apply an ik to the right hand, it move very quickly and then crash and the ik and aim ik doesn't work

"A normal human head usually cannot rotate 180 degree", the word usually cracked me up 🤣. Good video btw

that's ingesting ngl

How about the left hand thumb?

Edit, fixed. For anyone having the issue: Make sure to assign Rig1 (or whatever you've named your rig) to the AimRig variable in the inspector. I somehow missed that part. --- I've tried modifying the LookAtObject script to add if statements in regards to if the player is aiming or idleing (I want the rig enabled when aiming, disabled when idleing), but I keep getting an error that I can't quite wrap my head around. "NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object LookAtObjectAnimationRigging.Update" From as far as I can tell, the script was working perfectly fine in the original version presented in the video. But when I changed around some of the if statements to use StarterInputs, things stop working. Any idea why this is happening? Here's the code, with the error appearing at " if (starterAssetsInputs.aim)": using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine; using StarterAssets; using UnityEngine.InputSystem; using UnityEngine.Animations.Rigging; public class LookAtObjectAnimationRigging : MonoBehaviour { private StarterAssetsInputs starterAssetsInputs; private Rig rig; private float targetWeight; private void Awake() { rig = GetComponent(); } private void Update() { rig.weight = Mathf.Lerp(rig.weight, targetWeight, Time.deltaTime * 10f); if (starterAssetsInputs.aim) { targetWeight = 1f; } else { targetWeight = 0f; } } }

Really wish I had a proper animator on my team.

Hey Codemonkey, I have a question about functionality. Currently I create my rig in Blender, and can do simple animations there as well. It’s nice to do, but I find the back and forth between Unity to be cumbersome, especially handling things like holding guns, and such. So my question is can you use the rigging system as an aid to animation. Like can you set up IK constraints and controllers and use those to make your own animations within Unity? For instance if I have a set of FPS hands in my game, and I set up the hand IK which controls the whole arm, and have a setup for curling each of it all the fingers, can I then proceed to posing my character with the rigging system in the editor, and then recording or keyframing those poses to make my own animations? That would be so much easier. I love Blender, but I feel like Unity should have some native functionality for that within the editor. Any insight would be greatly appreciated, Thanks

@@CodeMonkeyUnity this is my other account. So I tried a few approaches. - I found with the rigging package, i could actually create animations in Unity, but it was difficult to set up subtle things like finger poses. I have to import the "animation" of holding the gun (finger position) from blender and then the Ik would do the rest. I could do it in Unity, but its much slower especially without IK controls i have in blender and Umotion. this way the gun could be moved around like an IK control and any animations would be centered around that. i find people usually pair procedural animations with this workflow as it can update the gun and hence the IK control. Also, I don't have the FPS arms as a humanoid rig, rather a generic rig. - then i got UMotion. It's really good. It's got a solid editor, rigging package and a nice ik solution. everything just gets saved to unity animation assets. it's meeting my fps animation needs for now. great asset for sure! and yeah, it does humanoid animations!
