Hi, I have a character that I am using two bone IK to attach the hands to the current weapon item. I am trying to adjust where the IK joints go based on which weapon was equipped. I have a custom anim instance where I run InitItem() that pulls all the data needed for that weapon like which animations to use for things. I am also pulling the transform information from the weapon joints.
In the header file
UPROPERTY(EditAnywhere, BlueprintReadWrite, Category = HandPositions)
FTransform lHandIkPos;
UPROPERTY(EditAnywhere, BlueprintReadWrite, Category = HandPositions)
FTransform rHandIkPos;
in the cpp file
lHandIkPos = Item->Mesh->GetSocketTransform(FName(TEXT("b_gun_frontHandHold")), ERelativeTransformSpace::RTS_ParentBoneSpace);
rHandIkPos = Item->Mesh->GetSocketTransform(FName(TEXT("b_gun_reargrip")), ERelativeTransformSpace::RTS_ParentBoneSpace); //Item->rHandPosition;//Soldier->rHandOffsetPosition;
UE_LOG(LogTemp, Warning, TEXT("lHandIkPos Current: %s"), *(lHandIkPos.ToString()));
When I switch weapons the log reports that the values in both are updated, however the “get” for both in the animation blueprint dont seem to update.
What am I doing wrong?
