Hi, yes it is also designed to work with melee weapons. Regarding the weapon going out of range of the arm, can you try giving a larger value to the "linear strength" in the weaponphysics component ? Giving a value like 2500 to the linear strength. The angular strength could be a bit lower to let the weapon rotate when colliding or have the wobble effect, it's something you can tinker until it feels right for you. If cranking up the linear strength isn't enough, you could try slightly reducing the "max arm length percent" from the default 1.0 to a slightly lower value like 0.96. This is to reduce from a 100% arm extension limit to a 96% arm extension limit. If neither approach isn't working, do hit me up in my discord server. I'm always there for support.

@@eternalmonkegames1859 Thanks for the point but I figured out the reason for this is a conflict between the OnHitCallback function been called in the weapon's Onhit event and the WeaponIKComponent. Anyway, I think it would be very helpful if you could share the blueprint of the character(Wearing a red cape) that is playing melee attack animation in the video to the Demo.

@@lima-ld3kv I see. I can try to make a melee example on the project soon. I cannot use the red caped character unfortunately as it's a paid model by the artist named frank's animations. I can instead use a free model and animation from mixamo instead.

@@eternalmonkegames1859 Thank you for your attention. Let me first briefly describe the problem I am currently encountering. I am not sure whether this is a BUG or a deliberate setting: When I set the physanimComponent based physics collisions for the character and specify the weapon mesh body for the WeaponHandlerComponent, after calling GrabWeapon function, the issue happend : if I touch the weapon, the arms will physically swing together correctly, but when I touch the arm, the Arm has physical swing, but there is no physical swing associated with the weapon, it just fixed in the same place. And When I called the PhysanimComponent's OnHitCallback function in the weapon's collision setting instead of calling GrabWeapon (like the sword holding character in the Demo project), this issue didn't exist, but another issue happened: the weapon's OnComponentHit didn't always fire in the right place and right time if the weapon been swing fast. 回覆

Yeah it still works, even better than when this video was made

@@eternalmonkegames1859 Indeed, it makes the work musch easier! I was wondering if this plu-in can also help with turn animations?

@@SKIROW Using a combination of the plugin's features can help with turns. Like using the aim solver to make the quadruped bend towards the turning direction when in locomotion, and optionally using the sticky feet feature of the foot solver to stick the feet to the surface.

@@eternalmonkegames1859 Thank you for your fast awsome. I will try. Thanks again!

@@ethanbergendahl5566 Hi. When it comes to a TRex, the way I set it up is follow this tutorial for the foot solver, but follow the quadruped setup for the spine solver. This way, the trex spine will adjust to the terrain. In the spine solver, you mainly just need to add the leg bone info as well as the arm bone info into the dragon input data. In the foot solver I just add only the leg bones alone in the dragon input data. Hope that makes sense.

@ I think so, mainly just follow the two tutorials and adjust some things. I’ll let you know if I have any further questions, thank you very much!

I can help if you can visit my discord server where I do all support request. Maybe sharing a short clip of your result in discord might help me resolve it. Link to my discord - discord.gg/XdBWW2U From your description, I am guessing maybe you might have skipped the step involving caching your pose just before the spine solver, and then connecting a copy of that cached pose into the foot solver's second "optional ref pose" pose link. Not connecting anything there tends to give broken results for the legs.

Procedural walk cycles is so far not planned to be added due to their potential complexity. Other new features will be given priority instead.

@@eternalmonkegames1859 Any workaround?, like stumbling/drunk type walk procedural using your system? Could look into the solution PowerIK had with their system and implement something similar with your IK system. I mainly bought your system to replace powerIK but it looks like gonna have to update manually their source code and physics to chaos to just use their system :(

No sword is slicing through a very thick object, you could implement a trace system to slice or stop based on object thickness.

Similar to a penetration system, but that is project/game specifics.

Thanks. It's possible but I hadn't put up any inbuilt methods to do that. You will have to make the extra blueprint logic for grabbing objects far away. I'm not sure how difficult that will be because I never attempted that scenario.

Hi, do you mean your VR character's hands are not following your controller position and rotations ? Come to my discord server, that's where I provide real-time support for everyone.

Yes a well setup physics asset is necessary

Thanks!

Thank you for your support!

Thanks! Glad to know you like it :)

Thanks! You can use the same exact method for VR hand purposes. It’s designed to be simple and easy to use for such scenarios.

Always!

Hi, I could give some pointers that may help you. Ultimately what you want to do is make the elbow only rotate within a specific axis of the hand. For this, get the direction vector between the elbow and the hand positions. Whenever the hand bone is rotated, rotate the elbow bone strictly within this direction vector.

Hi, there are actually multiple examples projects available for checking out example setups. The main IK related example project is this one github.com/codehawk64/DragonIK-ExampleProject It has many examples present. If all you need is human ik and your character uses the epic skeleton, then you can just directly copy the IK solvers of the mannequin examples into your own character's animation blueprint. If your character doesn't use the epic skeleton, then you can still copy paste the solvers but just rename the bone inputs alone. Human IK is the easiest to get things working regardless of the skeleton used.

i downloaded it but it isnt for 5.3@@eternalmonkegames1859

I’ll make a tutorial for that next 👍 Meanwhile if you haven’t tried the weapon IK examples in the DragonIK physanim example project, do check it out as it can help you. github.com/codehawk64/DragonIK-PhysicsSolverExample

Thanks! This is a kind of solution that will work for any kind of use case, as it's through an animation blueprint solver which you connect into a character's animbp.
