I am very impressed with the new Motion Matching performance using the 500 free animations. As a beginner, this makes an impressive motion experience possible with relatively little effort!
I plan to convert my project to Motion Matching. Currently I use State Machines for simple animations like Idle, Walk, Run, Jump and Crouch. However, my project also uses its own animations, e.g. a photo camera is brought out after an input action.
So my question is: could I use motion matching and the traditional state machines together? Or do I have any restrictions? I plan to create my main locomotion movements via motion matching, but custom movements still manually via state machines.
Is there anything against it? And is there anything I need to consider?
