LogInHere are new features for animation specialists available in Unreal Engine 5.
Unreal Engine 5, available today in early access, introduces an experimental new Full Body IK Solver and a bunch of other animations tools. The tool was designed to give better results with less work.
Characters in games can now correct themselves to adjust for variations on the ground below. The team describes the new tool as deterministic, reliable, and 10 times faster than before.
There's also a new feature called Animation Motion Warping to manipulate root motion animations to adapt them to the world.
What is more, there are artist-friendly tools like Control Rig to create rigs and share them across multiple characters. You can then pose them in Sequencer, and use the new Pose Browser to save and apply the poses as assets.
