Hey Ryan! great work in this video!
I have been searching and trying to learn these things for a few days and so far, your video seemed to be the best. I really appreciate the time and effort you take by explaining each thing and their function in the engine (like what is a state machine, or what is a state itself?) and how they function. Most other videos i see are something like "you plug this in and it works fine".
So thanks a lot, man!

Anim bp has too little tutorials online. would be nice to see some more advanced Tutorial series about anim bps, like how to use more them 1 anim bp. more then 1 state machines, and all the nodes specific for anim bps

Thank you! you teach so well that i now can clearly undestand after making an whole course and start another i got the same block question to understand ''what makes i move to one state to another'' ?
now i totally understand that there is an ''condition'' and i also need an blendspace everytime it has more than one movement, right ?

Hey Ryan! Thanks for the great series! Just curious, are there going to be videos of switching animations based off equipped items (such as weapons)?

[Vasya_Bosyakov]

Thanks a lot! I'm just beginner, who tried to search way to add state machine for few hours. There is option in right-click menu "State Machine" without "Add". 4:01 Clearly seen, I need another option -> Animation/State Machine. It's complicated
