Animation 45 degree left & right delay

Created a new animation 3D blendspace and everything is great except for the run left 45 and run right 45 when playing. There is about a second delay of the character walking in slow mo and then the correct animation kicks in. I have changed out the 45 left/right animation and still the same issue. If i remove the left/right 45 altogether then the issue goes away but of course my character isn’t running as expected. Anyone have any ideas? Here is a youtube link of it…around second 12ish you will see the issue. Movement Unreal Editor 2022 08 10 19 18 57 Trim - YouTube

Hey @msmith4299! Welcome to the forums!

A few questions to get things started:

  • What do you have your smoothing time settings for those animations on your blendspace?
  • Can you shorten it that time, possibly making it zero?
  • Does changing your smoothing type yield any positive results?

Please see the the documentation on 5.0 Blendspaces for more information:

Any additional information you can provide will go a long way in solving your problem!

  • What do you have your smoothing time settings for those animations on your blendspace? in the blendspace itself smoothing is at 0.0 for both the Vertical and Horizontal Axis’.
  • Can you shorten it that time, possibly making it zero? Already at 0 but played with multiple settings with no change.
  • Does changing your smoothing type yield any positive results? Just went through all smoothing types on both axis’ and no changes i can see.

Here is my blendspace. I’m new at this by the way :slight_smile: so forgive the ignorance. Keep in mind that all other animations within the blendspace work perfectly. left / right / forward / backwards etc.

The animation in question within the sequence that is giving me trouble is Sprint_Left_45 and Sprint_Right_45. Here is a screenshot of Sprint_Left_45.

If there is anything else that would lend to troubleshooting this issue please let me know and i’ll upload it.
