just stumbled this channel and did a quick scroll through your list of videos. Gotta say i am incredibly excited to learn unreal engine and i will most definitely be using this channel as a main resource, so many good tutorials on so many topics!

for some models you guys might need to go and either generate some physics for it or fix up its physics so everything links up and moves correctly. if you put in time making the ragdoll look good in the editor, this effect is drastically improved

@GorkaGames Жыл бұрын

yeah absolutely, great tip! You have to put on a lot of detail and work into the Physics asset

note: if the event beginplay is having issues and isnt working, go up to the original event beginplay where it connects to "cast toplayer controller", then add a sequence and connect event beginplay to sequence, then drag "then 0" to "cast toplayer controller" then drag "then 1" to the newly added code.

Hey, this worked pretty well, but I'm running into an issue. I'm adding a physics-simulated tail onto a monster through blueprints. I can get the tail to just attach to the proper socket at runtime and flop around just fine, but I can't get it to work if the tail has animation from the main body's skeleton. I get "Invalid bodies: make sure collision is enable or root bone has body" and I'm not exactly sure what they mean by this. I have collision enabled on everything (I think) and the root of the tail and the root of the tail socket AND the root of the main rig both have bodies.

How do you stop the arms from stretching?

@GorkaGames Жыл бұрын

There are many ways to make it look better and to make the arms not stretch so much. First of all play with the physical component settings to make some bones not so fluffy. And the you can edit the "physical asset" of the character. There are capsules on each bone, so if you select the arm`s one, there are some properies at the right. There is an option to "lock" the constraints, so that will make ir less stretchy.

this is the fake method, you can see how the player controller is still very much the default movement and not physics based. all this does is apply physics to everything except for the pelvis, which is animated regularly. also stretching out the female mannequins proportions while simulating, Ive had this happen before

Thats no active ragdoll. it's just make your character become an alcoholic. Active ragdoll makes player balance and able to playban animation correctly not like that
