    Thanks for a great deep dive into Motion matching. As an anim/UE newbie who knows nothing about State Machines, Anim Montages etc. I found your vid easy to follow and v informative. Looking fwd to your next vids!
  • @ThePlatypotamus
    Hey Singh, Just wanted to let you know that this is the best breakdown of motion matching I could find. Thank you. Is it possible to get in touch to collaborate on some projects/ideas?
  • @RyansMashup
    Could you create a tutorial showing how we can take this project and integrate it into a character from another project? Something like the base third person project.
  • @mikebryant4146
    thanks for making this helpful video. The sound quality has a lot of noise which is a bit distracting.

    I love it, I am creating a parkour game, before the motion matching update I created a custom state machine that was handling wall run as soon as player encounters a wall by hitting a line trace and then doing some calculation on event tick. How do I add that logic in this Animation Sample ? I am so confused but I hope this will help
  • @ksrivastava8
    Can we create a database for wall running anims and them feed them to a logic where if players line trace hits a wall that is tagged as (Wall) then it we can apply logic where it goes to this Wall running data base and then look for these wall running anims and plays it ? I am thinking in this way , very new to unreal so I am not sure if this is the correct way to approach things
