Geeez we just released it, and people are already making videos? Slow down! :D

You can't ever have enough good animations

I finally had a chance to try it out, and it's very nice. I personally would like to see this become an official game template.
Basically add some foot IK and it would make a nice starting point.

This just made a bunch of marketplace assets obsolete.

I often wondered over the last 6 months if learning Unreal and all the other 3D stuff was worth all the frustration. Now I´m glad I stuck with it. This is going to help my mini projects massively.

Unreal Engine, they get more cool stuff than any other engine!

Its a great showcase for the realtime retargeting...one of the characters can switch between metahuman, the mannequin, many and a paragon char with the x key....showing all the different skeletons and their ik running one set of animations

Great presentation. I just downloaded this. I'm about to go in.

Now we don't need those locomotion assets from the marketplace. 😄😄😄

[Uncle_Fred]

I guess that's the end of the line for most marketplace creators that develop locomotion packs and systems. I do love me some free assets!

Hi, I have watch many of your tutorials, and I am very much looking forward to you doing a tutorial about changing the motion match demo to an FPS game. Thank you

[etherealregions]

Cool, and if you turn the project into a template. You can make new projects from it.
Please, make a video explaining that template making process. Because I'm sick of explaining it myself. lol

Thank you for another interesting video! It's always good to see your videos in my feed.

It's awesome they did this!
Does anyone happen to know if this package also comes with swimming animations? Thanks for the help!

The default character looks like a drawing model. Which gives me an idea...

[keithcollier]

What about the new content example released today too?

[fleity]

If this uses motion matching, how difficult is it to add new animations to the system so that it utilizes those correctly. I'd be interested in a video about that.

[DougieBoy]

Looks awesome. I still don't understand why Motion Blur is on by default. Most people turn that off for games.

[CrissCross]

How do you handle animations with a melee weapon in your hand? Do you have to customize every single animation or even get tons of other animations?

[Bloodom]

This was probably one of the best free downloads in a very long time.
