Spawning a object during animation

[HungryMoogle]

Okay, I have absolutely no idea as to what I’m doing :(.

I added the weapon mesh to my character Blueprint & made it invisible, afterwards I then tried to attach it my character’s “hand” via the Animation Notify I created previously, but to no success. I just don’t have enough knowledge of Blueprint’s inner workings to make thing work by myself without a step-by-step tutorial, none of which I’ve been able to find during my past searches on the Internet.

You can then cast to character as any tutorial and even the base BPs show you, and call another custom event from the character pin in order to take things on the character BP and handle from there.

You said to call a custom event but I don’t even know what a event is, let alone how to make a custom one. Looking up the term on Unreal Engine 4’s documentation page gives description:

Events are nodes that are called from gameplay code to begin execution of an individual network within the EventGraph. They allow Blueprints to perform a series of actions in response to certain events that occur within the game, such as the game beginning, the level being reset, taking damage, etc. These events can be accessed within Blueprints in order to implement new functionality or override or augment the default functionality. Any number of Events can be used within a single EventGraph; though only one of each type may be used.

Unfortunately, didn’t help clarify things for me, so I tried looking up Custom Event which in turn came up with page [Link: https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/Engine/Blueprints/UserGuide/Events/Custom/index.html] but as before it didn’t really help me out with trying to figure out how to get blasted thing working properly .
