To select a random item in an array, I usually use "random array item" node. This node selects randomly one item in an array regardless of the amount of items. Hope this helps ! Thanks for all your tutorials !!
Your tutorials have inspired me to start creating my own game and making tutorials of my own as I progress! Thank you and keep up the good work friend!
Nice I'm working on this now.. You reading my mind again. Great tutorial Matt, I'll be using this to make my Talking/Conversation idles. Death animations are great for this, also good for any animations that get played ALOT. Like Reloading, standing Idles, etc.. So you have a bit more diversity or variety to you actions, not so repetitive. Thanks for the good stuff, just keep doing what you're doing.
if you want to ragdoll after the animation just use "random array item" and then it will work through play montage blueprint so you get the character skeletal mesh attached for ragdoll
if i were to making shooting/rpg game and holding different type of weapon, should i make a condition of actor object holding and different death montages with each different weapon involve?
Very useful! As always. Please tell me if you can how to run the animation through another slot instead of the default. In the default slot, there is a mixing on the bones and everything is fine there. I need an animation of the slide naturally without mixing. I'm making an additional slot, but I can't connect it to Anim_BP. Maybe there is already a video, but I didn't find it.
Matt, I need help I used your nightime tutorial video to make a nighttime scene and I had to place a house in the scene but inside the house its just a black screen with the flashlight off How can I fix it
Could this be used to play random animations while the character is idling? Any tips on how to implement it that way? Thank you so much for everything you do, it's incredible!
I'm doing a 3d smash bros generic style template in unreal. I'm Working on Combat animations, I'm going to have a whole list of randomized attacks going off. Is there way to have a Specific animation from a randomized list initiate a specific result. For example when enemy health reaches zero and stab animation happens to proc, stab animation initiates death animation B or B-C, Or animation C triggers reaction animation E-F? Whether you have a tutorial or someone else does, I can't seem to find the answer Don't know if theres a specific keyword im missing
How would one make an animation play once, and then play a random array? For example: start event -> play standing up animation -> loop random array of standing idles. It seems like it should be so easy, but I can't figure it out and it's driving me crazy. (If it changes things, it's not for the player character but for an NPC that just does their thing - I can't figure out how to use state machines without using key inputs...)
I keep having a weird error where when I setup my animation, I can only play 1 animation (like an attack animation when pushing the left mouse button) but others aren't working. I think I imported the animations correctly to the character/skeleton. I made this work before without any issues but I'm not sure what I did to do that (and my notes don't cover it). Has anyone seen this before?
Hey Martin, they shouldn't be effected to much from now nope. They've already slowed down from every day to every other day, so far this schedule seems to be manageable!

Oh awesome, great tip! Thanks a lot for sharing!
Good one, cheers!
THIS is what I needed! I kind of sort of had an idea of how to do this, but this helped me sort it out. Thanks!

Thank you for your tutorials, man. You're teaching us so many things.
Clean!
Thanks
Wow, you saved me again. Adding the default slot to the anim graph!

Wow, that really great Matt. Thanks 👍
My pleasure!
Thank you for a help :) Now my game project would look much better
Nice one!
It's just exactly what I wanted!
Thank you :)
What about an ordered sequence--like for a series of sword strike animations, e.g. right, left, right?
I have 10 animations and i want to switch them in sequence on "Right arrow key" how to do?
NICE!!!!
Thank you so much!

How to get back to normal walk/run mode after playing montage?
With you going to University, is it likely your series on these videos will slow down a lot?
