Hi, can i ask how to make Animations interaction with in-game objects in cinematic?
For example: the character take a glass and drink, i prepare the animation of the character with mocap, the character take the glass and drink (but in the animation him don’t really take anything), but how i can make it interact with a real in-game engine glass? what is the secret? :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks

Hi kalakus:

You would attach a socket to your skeleton’s hand and then attach a glass temporarily to the socket as described here:
