Project TH(무당) - Motion Matching : Dev Diary 1 

agree, animation right now is a 100% bottleneck in indie development pipeline ( especially procedural animation)

@@ltlt9012 If you're an indie you won't have budget for this type of implementation. It requires extensive mocap to get it right, and then you have to cleanup and provide the engine a bunch of animations to study from so it can pick the right one for each situation. The caveat of this is, high input lag, since the game has to search for specific animations and make transitions there's a huge input lag, which is why most companies don't use this. Especially for a stealth game which is the case here, it's a really bad idea since it requires precision. Looks pretty and fluid, but once you get your hands on it, will feel clunky. I'm honestly curious on why evr studio chose to use motion matching here, it will never feel good for a stealth based game, just look at valhalla, everyone says it looks great, but it plays like crap and characters are unresponsive. For indies and this type of games I suggest looking into how ALS4 does locomotion, looks great, fluid and most importantly it's responsive. If you want more detail on the animations, just make more transitions to give some variety.

​@@robinv1485 Thanks for the info man, very detailed and informative. Can i just ask if you dont, how you know so much about it? Are you a dev yourself or just take alot of interest in it?

​@@tommysmith7462 There is a presentation about motion matching from the guy who first successfully used it in a commercial product (For Honor). But I can't find it on RU-vid, but it should be available in GDC Vault. Since then Ubisoft enhanced it with Machine Learning to fight some problems. But I really don't get any of the points about input lag. Because there is no input lag. It is still just a capsule that moves. Animations in motion matching get movement of the capsule and try to find the appropriate next frame. Animations don't drive movement, movements drive animation. But to feel natural and give the chance for motion matching to give time for smooth transition capsule movements should have spring movement. Meaning that change of motion vector isn't instant but interpolated over time to the desired. Mentioned ALS4 has the same exact movement pattern. The Last of Us Part II and Part I (remake) is the good example of "stealth" game with motion matching. It is also used in Ubisoft games (Assassin's Creed) and other games like Fallen Order. But it is true, that this is mostly for big studios which can shoot hours of motion capture and just put it in some magic to get good results. Motion matching can be made faster with more animators with basic knowledge that can't be efficiently achieved with traditional methods. It is an example of when more money can give you results faster.

wtf

Full sprint with dust trails next.

@@MindBlender-jn5bx no it's not available

There's a few tutoriais on RU-vid showing how to make the character trajectory,and the motion matching blend Animation system, there's a plugin called Motion Symphony with free Animation in some tutorial on RU-vid,or you can try out two free plugin very easy to learn,one that made the trajectory and other the Animations matching,you can use the Animations of one tutorial wich is free,and follow the steps of other tutorial wich free plugin also. I implement this in my project and am very happy with the results....

@@leonardob.v1756 Can you share the links of the tutorials?

When will they release it though?

they said you will have to wait a couple months after ue 5.4 relase@@stavrosmelidonis817

@@hyper_1337 So Epic bought this system and integrated it in UE5.4?

@@OverJumpRally idk, that was explained in a state of unreal video

@@stavrosmelidonis817 in june they said

what is capsule movement simulation? and how is it different from whats available in unreal engine 5.1? im new and just want the best locomotion for my project

Of course. According to hearsay, it will be released early next year so that I invested hugely in this company as stockholder. This company is yet unlisted but it will not be long before it will be soon listed company almost in middle this year.
