So, I have made the camera shake while walking, but how do I make the head bob while running?

Hello CroMonster,

All you have to do is check if the character is moving, and play the camera shake if it is, by simply just using a branch node and a boolean that changes upon input. I don’t have access to the engine right now, but later on I can give you a little more in-depth answer if need be.

Good Luck!

Hey could you post the node setup or help me out with it? I’ve been having trouble with this for a few days now and still cannot find anything online.
