I really appreciate the explanation of what IK/FK actually is; it was wonderfully easy to follow. Thank you so much!

I have watched videos in the past that go into TOO MUCH detail about all the exact math, like two 20 minute segments to get just basic foot IK. Idk how you managed to cram this all into 9 minutes, but your amazing!

Awesome Job. Unfortunately it will not work on 4.27. Basic Foot IK System in UE marketplace is a good alternative if you're on 4.27. It works well combined with ALS mounting system as well as others.

@unrealdevop 2 жыл бұрын

Great plugin, you have any idea how to fix the bugs though? The leg bends oddly when one foot is on a flat surface and the other is still on the slope. It tends to do this at the top of slopes and stairs. Also it seems a bit jerky as well. You have to let the character sit there for a while before it does it but you'll notice the leg on the top flat surface will start swaying left to right and slightly inwards as it moves towards the character's center.
