Support thread - shooter bp project

Just tried out the demo and it is looking really good. Are you planning any more updates to this or is it pretty much finished?

Couple of things I noticed in the demo you might consider if you do plan another update.

1. The character should stop sprinting when trying to shoot or ADS. That is pretty normal in games for actions like that to override sprinting. Then when the player stops shooting or ADS, the character should continue sprinting if the shift key is still held down.

2. Some of the animations feel pretty slow. Like when the gun leans to the side while running as an example. It would feel more responsive if the animations were a bit quicker.

3. The character seems to be holding the gun pretty high when in hip fire. The difference between the guns position in hip fire and ADS is very small. From 3rd person, it looks like the character is ADS when they are actually in hip fire. Is it possible to hold the gun much lower when in hip fire, so it actually feels (and looks like from 3rd person) you are firing from the hip.

Hi! Yes, I’m planning more updates, the asset isn’t finished yet and I want to hear your feedback. Regarding your specific comments:

1. This is kinda down to personal preference. I guess this kind of stuff is better left for the user to mod to his own needs…

2. The anims provided (and the blending speeds between them) are just examples, ready and easy to be replaced by the user’s own preferred anims and speeds… My intention with the example anims provided was to go for tactical realism speeds instead of fast paced action shooter speeds…

3. The character holds the gun in a position that the gun is within view of the 1st person camera. In fact, I’ve had customers tell me that they’d like it even higher on the screen. Anyway, you can replace the anim with one that holds the gun lower, if you don’t mind the gun being out of your view in 1st person. Again, this only is how the example anim was made, it doesn’t mean your character needs to use the same exact anims. Also, with the addition of a few nodes to the anim bp, it’s possible to adjust hands/gun position (see the other post above) without needing to replace anims, though using anims already made the way you want is the ideal choice imo.
