How to Blend two animations together

Hey fellow devs,

I am looking to create an animation (*fbx) from two separate animations.

Anim 1: walking, so I need the lower body part of it
Anim 2: aiming, so I need the upper part of it.

So I know you can make an animation montage, but I need the animation as a stand alone animation to be used inside a blend space (for directional walking, so I need to make walk front left/ right etc while aiming too)

I searched the web and wasn’t able to find a solution.

I know you can make an animation composite and record it into a new animation too. But I need these two animations to be played at the same time, anim 1, aim, upper body + anim 2, walk, lower body.

Any advice would be highly appreciated! Thanks for your help!!!

Follow up question: using slots, where can I define them? Which bones are used and which not? I can easily add a new slot, but can’t find where to assign bones to it. Many thanks

How about this… …have not tried it…

  • make a blend space for the top
  • make a blend space for the bottom

Then do what this video does to bend these two together…

What do you think???

You could go for either blend spaces or use layered animations .
