I have a Map with Keys as “Object Class Reference” & Value as “AnimSequence” as such:
It works perfectly except that the blending/transition between animations is not smooth as such:
Is there any solution for this? Or perhaps a better approach?
I’m trying not to clutter with state machines and stuff since most animations map to classes one to one
Okay I think I’ve found a solution:
but I’m not sure if I’ve implemented it correctly, please let me know if this might have any unexpected behavior
Is there anything you would like to add? I’m open to suggestions
It’s a bit hard to know why you chose this setup, since most conventional animation logic used state machines extensively
However perhaps a chooser is something you can look into, it’s a newer system from Epic that can potentially help you, since it can evaluate a set of conditions and output something (in your case an animation) that can be fed into an animation graph
Interesting but it seems a bit overkill and experimental to use at the moment
I chose this setup since I have a “custom state machine” in my ACharacter and I’d have to recreate/duplicate that same state machine in the ABP so I thought it would be simpler to keep my code dry and simply reference the state in the ABP and match them with their respective animations
I totally agree with you on keeping code dry. I see so many people write the same thing in logic blueprint/code and in animation state machine twice. And when you point it out for them, they tell you it’s a practice of data driven …
Epic has come up with a new node, called Blend Stack. It can do similar thing you want, but it doesn’t reply on Inertialization and gives you better control over blending. You may have a look.
Really glad I’m not the only one who sees this problem/pattern
Also sorry for the late reply but could you possibly link me to some useful resources? I can’t seem to find any online
