How to create a Blender animation which can be exported and imported into Unreal Engine. This fixes the problem where your animations are very small after you import them into UE4. It also shows you the basics of modeling a simple mesh and creating the animation within Blender.

The most useful blender animation tutorial I've seen so far. Simple and to the point.

Simple, nothing uneccesary, this is the best kind of tutorial and hit the nail on the head. The only outdated here is the Pose Library, which is deprecated and has a deprecated warning (in 3.5a). But figuring out the Asset Browser is easy enough. Infact easier and that was a relief. Thanks dude!

It would be great if you keep posting Blender/UE animation videos. Though I wonder if the bone editing in UE 5.3 will reduce the need for retargetting things like Mixamo animations.

Maybe you can offer some help, first off: Great video. I'm running into an issue where, when I import into Unreal I end up with 7 or 8 animation icons in my Content folder, even though I'm only exporting 1 animation from blender. Most of the animations are about 4 frames long, with 1 animation running the full 30 frames, BUT the bones don't line up, its like they are all off by 25 degrees or so. (I also subbed)

@GordonVart 3 жыл бұрын

These extra animations are probably poses. When you create poses in the pose Library, when you export your animation it will export all of those poses as well. Those then get imported when you bring it into unreal. there is probably some option to exclude them from the export, or ignore them on the import but honestly I just delete them and move on. Thanks for subbing, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. When I first started doing the stuff I learned almost everything I know from KZfaq videos, so I thought I would give back a little bit to the community. Good luck!

Changing units to centimeters and unit scale to .01 in order to have normal scaled animations didn't work for me. Surprisingly but just renaming of Armature to something else solves that problem

Hello! Thank you for tutorial. I have an rocket launcher with cap, i want to make it stay closed until a keypress, then it'll open, rocket will be fired and cap will be closed again. How to trigger ON/OFF for cap? i did my research and found nothing. Only character animations with walking etc.

@GordonVart Жыл бұрын

You can also create animations on your rocket launcher to show the cap opening and closing, and then trigger those animations using blueprints. I've been looking for a new topic for a video, maybe I will choose this. stay tuned

unreal got some similar animation studio, which one is preferable in the long run?, thanks for the video!

@MrDankDro Жыл бұрын

UE5 and Blender animators are very similar, but since you're making meshes and the armature in Blender most likely anyway, it saves a lot of time to just import animations from Blender. In UE5, once importing the mesh and skeleton, in order to animate you'll have to go through the process of creating a control rig which isn't hard but its extra work that can be time consuming

When i export to unreal thr animation still snaps, any way you can help?

snaps how? I would check the number of frames in your animation in blender and the number of frames in unreal

My animations are invisible can you help?

@GordonVart 3 жыл бұрын

It is probably a scaling issue when the animation is imported they can become very very tiny.

LOL wow really good tutorial man you did an excellent job explaining everything. However you were really screwing me up using the menus LOL every tutorial I have ever seen for blender they use hot keys and the whole time watching it I kept wondering wheres the hot keys LOL sorry man but yes this was a really good video man. I wish I could Like it twice 😄👍👍

@GordonVart Жыл бұрын

Thank you, and that's really funny. When I first started learning blender I remember sitting through videos and watching these folks just glide through 800 hotkeys in about six seconds and me trying to figure out what the hell was going on. Ever since then, I make sure I know where every menu option is, and because my typing dexterity is a little off the menus are helpful to me at times. I figured the people that are Advanced enough to use the hotkeys will figure it out.
