I am trying to find out how to make the mouse control the waist like in this video.

I am trying to get a similar effect.
Thank you for any answers.

You will want to look into blending animations using the Layered Blend per Bone node in the AnimGraph.
I’d recommend you watch the animation tutorials given because they really give you a good base understanding of how stuff like this works.

Here’s the vid that does the blending of two animations:


Once you have that setup you can use an AimOffset to make (a part of) your character turn when you move your mouse. I believe Tesla Dev on YouTube demonstrates this in one of his videos: - YouTube (around 34 mins in)

Goodluck!

Thanks! I’ll try this when I get home and I’ll get back to you!

Okay you’re welcome, I have to say that animation isn’t the easiest thing to get your head around, especially when you want to do complex animations. (like in Assassins Creed for example) But I hope the videos provided will get you started :slight_smile:
