Asset Description

This is a set of 55 hand-crafted animations (not motion capture!) of a character wielding a katana.

General Information

  • Includes a full suite of combat and locomotion animations

  • Each combo attack animation starts at the end of the previous slash, and ends with the character returning to the idle pose. This allows a smooth transition to idle if attacks are ended mid-combo.

  • A placeholder katana mesh is included for demonstration.

  • Uses the UE4 Mannequin rig.

  • All animations have root motion and in-place variants.

Important/Additional Notes:

  • These animations utilize the ik_hand_gun joint of the UE4 skeleton for placement of the weapon. For use on an existing character, you must add a socket to this joint and attach your weapon to it.
  • The animations assume the origin of the weapon mesh is at the very bottom of its handle. If this isn't true for your mesh, the Relative Location of the socket can be adjusted to position the weapon correctly.
  • UE4 documentation can be found in the KatanaDocumentation folder of your project's root directory. This covers how to retarget the animations in UE4 and utilize hand IKs in your AnimBP.
  • Source FBX files are located in the SourceFiles folder.

You can buy this asset in original store
