I have lean animations that get set in my blendspace pictured. Problem was… the lean just wasn’t working. At all.
Then I noticed I had a Blendspace PLAYER. When I use the Blendspace PLAYER everything works fine.
I can’t find any good data on the difference between plugging into Blendspace vs plugging into Blendspace Player. Can someone give me the 4-1-1 on these two things?
The official doc is here: Blend Spaces in Animation Blueprints in Unreal Engine | Unreal Engine 5.5 Documentation | Epic Developer Community
As far as I understood it, a BlendSpace is similar to a BlendSpace Player with even more flexibility, since you can double click on any of the samples you included in the graph and edit them in their own AnimGraph windows, being able to alter the pose in a similar way you edit a pose inside a State from a State Machine.
Yes, more flexiblity, but it may be more hard to use.
BlendSpace node can blend anim graph node, but its blend effect is strange, it arrives at the hybrid state in an instant, at least, by default(Probably I’m missing knowledge about blending behaviour setting in BlendSpace)
Instant blend may lead to animation shakes. I have meet this case.
However, the blend behaviour in BlendSpace Player node is nice.
If you open Rewind debugger, you can see BlendSpace node controlls Playback Time of certain sequence, while BlendSpace Player node doesn’t show its Playback Time of samples. Maybe the different blending behaviour is due to this?
