True First Person Shooter Camera with 2D Aim Offset: Body Rotation & Weapon Position Issues

One thing I forgot to mention… I use TwoBoneIK instead of FABRIK. I once used FABRIK and I noticed that the sight wouldn’t align correclty until I increased the Precision in the node… or the Max Interactions, I don’t remember exactly… I also don’t remember the value I used, but it was higher then what you’re using on your pictures… just increase them and see if you see a difference.

Regarding the rotation of the hand bone, I see you’re setting it through the CurrentHandAimRotation variable, what I wanted to really tell you is that somewhere in the calculation of this variable you must take into account the relative rotation between hand and sight. Maybe you are, I only say this to be on the safe side, because I can’t see it in the pics. Another thing (just to be on the safe side) is that, for the purpose of checking alignment only, it would be ideal to turn off the swaying effect you mentioned you put in this variable through C++ (maybe you already are).

I’m actually not including the relative rotation between hand and sight in the CurrentHandRotatation variable, I hadn’t even thought of that! Perhaps that’s whats been causing the issue and would probably be a better solution than screwing with the Copy Target Rotation of the FABRIK anyway since that isn’t aligning the gun correctly regardless. Do you happen to know a node that’s good for combining rotators?

I’ll try adjusing the FABRIK values some more as well and also try TwoBone IK and see if that works better. Thanks for the suggestions, these are great leads to follow!
