Project M | UE5.4 | Motion Matching

Ойындар

Project M
This is something really new and not even out of my comfort zone...it's waay beyond that.
Over the past 3 months, I've been trying to learn how to move characters for games inside UE5 with the most natural way possible.
I want to thank Bassem Banna, because he is the person who put me on track and opened this new path for me.
I am using only Keyboard and mouse to control the movement, this is a WIP as i am waiting for the Sample Project from Epic to see, study this new method of moving characters and also read more documents about motion matching as am still new to this.
Hope you like it, and am open to discuss and talk to anyone about this topic.
Cheers ✌

    Almost 500 😅 My plan is to edit this version with better animations because there is still some foot sliding , and will add crouching , diagonal moves a jumping and climbing and walking or sprinting when holding guns ... so there will be alot of animations, but the cool thing is you don't need to worry about how to connect them because here the power of motion matching come into place
