Geeez we just released it, and people are already making videos? Slow down! :D

You can't ever have enough good animations

I finally had a chance to try it out, and it's very nice. I personally would like to see this become an official game template. Basically add some foot IK and it would make a nice starting point.

This just made a bunch of marketplace assets obsolete.

I often wondered over the last 6 months if learning Unreal and all the other 3D stuff was worth all the frustration. Now I´m glad I stuck with it. This is going to help my mini projects massively.

"UE-Only Content - Licensed for Use Only with Unreal Engine-based Products"

Unreal Engine, they get more cool stuff than any other engine!

Now we don't need those locomotion assets from the marketplace. 😄😄😄

I guess that's the end of the line for most marketplace creators that develop locomotion packs and systems. I do love me some free assets!

The default character looks like a drawing model. Which gives me an idea...

Cool, and if you turn the project into a template. You can make new projects from it. Please, make a video explaining that template making process. Because I'm sick of explaining it myself. lol

Its a great showcase for the realtime retargeting...one of the characters can switch between metahuman, the mannequin, many and a paragon char with the x key....showing all the different skeletons and their ik running one set of animations

Great presentation. I just downloaded this. I'm about to go in.

Hi , I have watch many of your tutorials, and I am very much looking forward to you doing a tutorial about changing the motion match demo to an FPS game. Thank you

When you say that they should have made it an asset bundle of animations... well, I don't know. It may well be a subtle legal thing. As things get more and more procedural and realistic, it's going to be harder to detect unlicensed use of assets. I can imagine that other engines (and plugins for other engines) will try to copy the motion matching tech. Compare with how open source has often aped a particular closed source tech while being just different enough to avoid legal takedown notices. In the past, there have been issues where people have used assets as placeholders, then (often accidentally, but also sometimes deliberately) neglected to remove or replace the assets from the launched product, and this has led to legal challenge. Often the first step is a cease-and-desist which makes a good faith assumption. By having the animations inside a project-based bundle, you now have to take extra steps -- *conscious* steps -- to make them available outside of Unreal. This makes it less likely for any resale or reuse of the assets outside of Unreal are a mere oversight, and if an oversight happens... well, it's the devs' responsibility to set up asset and source control management, so Epic have the argument of "negligence" on their side -- you may have overlooked the legal license, but it's your own fault for not having adequate systems in place.

I just started learning UE. This must be really lucky for me

Please disable motion blur next time, it doesn't go well with youtube and it sucks in general. Other then that, one more thanks for all your work

Looks awesome. I still don't understand why Motion Blur is on by default. Most people turn that off for games.

And people still use Unity smh

This was probably one of the best free downloads in a very long time.

I don't use unreal engine but imma download this anyway in-case I ever do use unreal engine, this is genuinely so cool

Thank you for another interesting video! It's always good to see your videos in my feed. It's awesome they did this! Does anyone happen to know if this package also comes with swimming animations? Thanks for the help!

Your channel is the best!

How do you handle animations with a melee weapon in your hand? Do you have to customize every single animation or even get tons of other animations?

500 free animations, 5 million "A Difficult Game About Climbing" clones 🤣 Joking aside though this is freaking amazing

FINALLYYYYYYYYYY

Thanks so much!!

Hi Michael! LTNS!

What about the new content example released today too?

Note This is an Epic Game asset. Per the ToS, They can not be ported to other engine.

If this uses motion matching, how difficult is it to add new animations to the system so that it utilizes those correctly. I'd be interested in a video about that.

welp now i have to learn UE5

Can these animations be opened in blender? I don't use unreal, I use godot but the animations help me when drawing and taking references.

I’m just looking for an animation file for the Maori HAKA for use in Blender. Still. It’s great others get the opportunity to make great content. Thanks.

sadly I'm not updating unreal engine anymore, probably for ever, well probably until ( unreal engine 6.0 ) or something last time I updated I almost quitted development with UE. I got somewhere stable I'm not moving. But it's nice seeing thing available for free, even though I can't touch it.

I have a question. So can we use these animation in other engines as well or just in unreal

Can it be used in unity

Is it safe to use this animation for game development? Even if it is for private corporate profit?

would these work in different game engine?

Why its laggy?

great stuff

is it possible to pull this to godot ?

🔥

Why I'm investing so much on Unity on the past T_T

this is a cool deal

I'm guessing you can't use the animations in unity ? since its from epic games themselves

damn ... all this for free? Really starting to feel like it is time to leave Unity in the dust

Damn...

Can people use this animations in other engines like godot

Roblox needs something like this

Is there any way we could bake the animations out for "other game engines"?😅 Nevermind, I saw the license info😭

Being that I'm a noob using Godot, would these function outside of Unreal?

gg ALS

Epic the best, steam cartel!

Someone should port to unity 😢

And for Godot is possible?

So can we export these as anim files to unity or not?

What’s the license like on these animations? Can we use in a different engine (assuming we can figure out how to get it to work)

Do you know any place for animations for Unity? Except mixamo!

My concern is that anyone who uses these animations will instantly have their game feel like fortnite

Not using Unreal engine ever.

BOO, nobody should be using an entity on its knees for windows. Try supporting developers that are open to alternatives besides Windows kernel 24.04-1 or newer. Epic Games hates anything that is open source, free, not monetized, and does not give them more data to sell. I personally to not think of windows as my lord and savior, master, and only option available. Therefore, I have no interest in this at all.

you can't deny how unreal is light speed ahead of unity when it comes to quality 3d stuff.

you got me at you like free stuff

Hi #Unity can you check that ! 😄

I demand that you count and name all of the animations...!

My job as an animator is over. Thanks Unreal! 😂

Can I use them in unity?

So can I use this in a game I plan to sell?

can we use them in Godot?

The problem is now everyone will be using these animations and not a single project will look unique, similar to how every single projrct used ALS a couple of years ago...

I feel bad for Goddot, Unity, Blender, other game engines.... You are in wrong baseball team.

Yes, less jobs for animators!! I love it!! let's keep destroying the industry!!
