In this 5 part series, were going to take a character model, rig and animate it and export it to Unreal Engine. In UE4 we are going to set this character as a playable 3rd person character with all the necessary blueprints.
***
Parts of this video are obsolete as we developed Game Rig Tools: an addon that automates the creation of a deform rig/game rig based on an existing Control Rig.
You can still watch this video to gain a basic understanding of what the addon does.
After that, you can watch this video which introduces Game Rig Tools.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZBx1I7vmQ0
***
In this video, Ill show you how to set up your scene and rig the character for optimal results.
