Sequencer bug? no animation

Hi mighty peoples of the internet,

I just started working with the sequencer.
I have recorded my pawn with the sequence recorder and now I want to play it, but somehow my pawn just moves forward and does not turn like i did it when I recorded the footage.
How I recorded my footage:

  1. I started playing in the editor
  2. added a new sequence in the recorder
  3. selected my pawn in the “actor to record”
  4. klicked on record
  5. moved around the level with my pawn
  6. pressed escape
  7. drag and dropped the recorded sequence into the level
  8. opend the level blueprint and got a reference of my sequence
  9. on begin play I fed the sequence to a sequence player and then set it to play
  10. when I now play the level the pawn of the sequence just moves forward and does not turn

So my question: Is there something wrong with my pawn or am I missing some setting of the sequence recorder?
I have tried it all with the third person template and everything worked.

Hope you can help me, I think I am getting desperate here :confused:

Greetings

hm, somehow the mesh of my actor just moves forward, but the collision is moving right. I just placed physics cube where I drove with my pawn and it was moved by something invisible.
So I think the rendered mesh is just out of sync or something like that…

Hi Evil_Fischi,

There are some character setups that may cause trouble for Sequence Recorder. It would probably go a bit faster if I could get ahold of your pawn. Could you migrate your character to a standalone project and set up your inputs, then PM me a download link on the forums.

Please respond here after sending a PM so I can track it easier.

I have sent you a pm with the project. I hope this helps you :wink:

Hey Evil_Fischi,

I grabbed your project and also reproduced this in our Advanced Vehicle template. I had no idea this was a vehicle until I opened your project. It was previously reported and is resolved in 4.15. See UE-38852. While the description might not sound the same, the underlying problem was. I tested with your project in 4.15 and it works as expected.

oh thanks for the help !
I have only tried it in the basic vehicle example, but I will try it in the 4.15 version :wink:
