Thank you so much for the new video! I've been waiting for it! Please continue this True FPS Shooter series, I love it!

All of your tutorials are explained really well, Thanks man.

This was Amazing !!Added!! divided by 8 and added the 2 neck bones and the head with 3 "transform (modify) Bone"s, then I added 2 more "transform (modify) Bone"s for "Upperarm_L" and "Upperarm_R" and multiplied the Pitch Rotation variable by -3 to the transform rotation. !!Result!! More natural looking bend and keeps arms pointed to ground.

Thank you for all the work you put in to it. I know it is quite hard to make videos like this!

Great tutorial, thanks for posting

Thank you. Hope you continue on this one. Had a really hard time to convert this to the Metahuman one and had to scrap it.

Hell yeah, another MizzoFrizzo banger just dropped!

The older version of this gave me a compile error. This one works perfectly. Awesome. I do still have a bit of bob. But it's very small, actually feels natural.

It would be nice to put it on top of some Lyra locomotion to make use of its in place rotation and other goodies

This worked for the most part but I have zero idea why. Man, I need to be that good at this engine and it's taking forever to learn it all

Hello, thanks for the tutorial twice. How can I prevent to see through head? I notice that if I move the mouse down I start to see through head. Another thing: How can I acquire only 1/10 of the animation movement in the camera view? I dislike the full animation trottle but as well the static one, Thanks. Oh last thing I thought about: When camera yaw, the character "slides " on left or right, how can I achieve a simple stepping process in order to make it realistic? I notice that even the head doesn't move left and right but the entire body, it's my fault?

This is PERFECT. Thank you so much! With a little reverse engineering to just get the neck, this was exactly the system I wanted. Edit: One issue I'm having is camera clipping inside my mesh. I'm guessing I should add a clamp somewhere?

for the bones, I made some personal changes since the bending is quite extreme to my liking so, I changed the bones to spine_04, spine_05, neck_01, neck_02 and I only used 4 transform bones modifiers

I've implemented basic crouching in my game but the can't figure out how to smoothly blend the camera with the crouch animation. With no additional code, the crouch anim doesn't affect the camera position however looking down takes the camera down to where it would be if looking down while crouched. I tried overriding the camera manager and doing a lerped offset with the out view target's location, however then the camera jumps on pressing crouch and when looking down it goes way further than the floor. Just was doing a basic lerp and adding the offset, works perfectly in third person. Any suggestions? I'm guessing I may have to do something with the transform of the virtual bone but not completely sure.

Perfect tutorial, however, i seem to have an issue when looking down, i can see through my body, is there a way to stop this please?

Love your tutorials! I have implemented the true first-person camera and it looks great, but when the character is close to an object, like a wall, and bends downwards or backwards the mesh clips through the wall. I was wondering if there was a solution for this that didn’t require hugely increasing the size of the capsule component. I have also tried creating a sphere collision for the head, since it is the part of the mesh that goes through the capsule component, but that doesn’t seem to work either. Thanks!

Working really nice! Thank you! Is there a way for the rotation to not affect the arms?

I have a few questions as this is all new to me. First of all, two things to make sure I've understood it correctly: If I don't want the character to lean so far down and up, I just need to remove a few spines and I've solved the problem, right? And if I want the camera to shake, I just have to select the default head bone, right? Now for the problems I can't solve: If I run completely against a wall and look down, you can see through it, the same thing happens if I run completely against a second player and look down. How can this be solved? Another thing is that I want to be able to see my upper body when I look down. If I move the camera itself in the viewport, my result looks terrible. How can I adjust this so that it works properly? I still have a lot to learn, for example how to add the animation that you can sneak or crouch, but I wanted to start with the camera rotation problem and was immediately overwhelmed by how complicated it all is. The only good tutorial is the one from you and all the others don't fit my ideas at all, because they do it with Aim Offset animations, which I don't need because I don't want to hold a weapon but a flashlight, but that's another topic. Do you have any tips or youtube videos that cover such topics well so that I can learn the right things?

hey i set this up 1:1 to how you did it in the tutorial, everything works great except for jumping. For some reason the pitch rotation seems to make the characters arms play the walking animation for them while jumping even when standing still. any idea how to set it up so it plays the normal jump animation on the arms but the arms are properly offset to your camera still?

Wow, its been years trying to find a solution for this, some have even tried using control rig to equalizr the wobble. Lol, didnt even think to use the vb from the root. Any cons for this? Ill have to try this using existing fps anims and procedural ads and stuff. Thanks

I like how you removed the wobble when running and walking via virtual bone, but what if I want to play Anim Montage where I need the camera to reflect the animation? For example when a character bends down to pick up an object?

Hell yeah

hey mizzo! so i was watching your true fps tutorial and you know how before we had issues with the vertical movement being slower/faster than the hands? so im facing this rightnow but in the horizontal way... do u know what should i do and if the fix is similar to the vertical one? edit: i tried fixing it the way we did it for up/down but didnt work..

you're intelligence is uncapped, these are so good.

Here from your FPS series lol. Still no luck. The mixamo rig/animation im using isnt rotating from the spine. Not sure why. I didn't add a virtual bone but im not sure if that's needed. If it is, that's another problem entirely as my rig doesnt even have a root bone.

This tutorial was great! But I have one question. Lets say I want to make my character only slightly bend when looking up and down, I changed the multiply by pitch from -1 to -.35 and this works perfectly for when I'm looking up, but when I look down it still does the original look down as if the multiply was still -1. How could I fix this?

Thank you for this tutorial! Will the character's head go through walls when the spine is rotated? Is there a recommended way to avoid it clipping through the wall with this true first person setup?

Noob question: What is the pitch replication for? Is it for multiplayer mode? Does it hurt anything if it's not added in a single player game?

This seems like a really good tutorial but whenever I try to set the arm length to 0 my project crashes. Does anybody know why this is happening?(im on windows 11)

how would I clamp only the animation? I want it to not look all the way down but still have the player able to see all the way down, or is this impossible and would cause clipping issues?

I ran into an issue where I followed everything perfect but for some reason when looking down I was looking up. To fix this put a *-1.0 after the - 360 value and plug that into the select float A node to fix it.

I'm not sure what's going on but it seams that if you add the virtual bone to the UE4 skeleton using the head and root, the camera will still continue to move with the animations. At least that's what is happening on my end. If I use the same animations between the UE5 and UE4 skeletons I can see significantly more movement on the UE4 character. Does anyone else experience this or know how to fix it?

When is the next part due to come out?

Any way to fix the feet sliding when turning in place?

How to apply this pitch for "play animation"?

There are problems, after the jump was made, the camera shaking remained. This method does not work when creating a project in C++ . And it was already mentioned in the comments that when tilted towards the wall, the camera goes inside other objects.

nice video but i don't understand why my character make some weird thing when i turn a little on the right 😂

thank for tut. But pls fix the bags

Based thanks!

The tutorial was fine, but I think you should give better explanations on how things interact with each-other, because as a complete beginner I feel like I've learned nothing about what I was actually doing a moment ago.

Nice. But it gives a lot of limitations. And the character extremely looking stiff one, like a robot or something else..

BRUH, BASE AIM ROTATION! You DO NOT NEED TO REPLICATE A PITCH/YAW VAR!

Bro where did you hear that "true first person" means that when a character is looking down he bends over and stares at the ground like he's looking for a bug in the grass, and when he looks up he leans back almost like the girl from The Exorcist? Who came up with this perverse concept anyway? I mean, why not take a cue from the real world where if you want to look up or down you just turn your head - why use a pelvis instead of a neck? It just doesn't look realistic... I saw this is same games like Phasmophobia and it ruins the atmosphere of the game because it looks so ridiculous. I don't understand who came up with this and why it took off and other developers are using it.
