Can you make reload animation in Unreal Engine without Blender

I currently making FPS game and i wondering how can i make animation for rifle reload because i need to have animation for arms and for weapon itself like mag moving but i cant find a way how i can animate both in the same time so if someone have idea on how to do it please tell me. (I using UE5)

Hey @Player_003!

You have a few options you can go with. Your first option is to combine the animations you already have with animation montages. Here is a great video that goes over the capabilities of montages:

Another option is to use the control rig and animate everything by hand. Because you already have animations that may not be as ideal since you are essentially redoing work you have already done, the only advantage being the ability to create more animations in engine as you see fit:

I hope the above points you in the direction you need!
