Using root animation on full body slot

[AlbinoWarrior]

Is there a way to setup root motion on a slot node in the anim tree? If not is there an easy way to restructure the tree? Sorry, but I am a noob at using root motion.

[AlbinoWarrior]

Anyone know how to set up a node that I can use root motion with that will let me switch back to the normal anim tree when its not in use?

Mmm No know you make...But the Root is posible to use in everyone animation...

Here is a example of what i got,

FullBodyAnimSlot.SetRootBoneAxisOption (RBA_Translate, RBA_Translate, RBA_Translate); this is what you need

still getting the bugs out but it works. I am brand new to programming but I am finding the Unreal wiki is the most help thats were i found the above function.

State BackHandSpring
{

Begin:

      // tell mesh to use Root Motion to translate the actor
      Mesh.RootMotionMode = RMM_Accel;

      // Tell mesh to notify us when root motion will be applied,
      // so we can seamlessly transition from physics movement to animation movement
      Mesh.bRootMotionModeChangeNotify = TRUE;

            FullBodyAnimSlot.PlayCustomAnim('BackHandspring',1.0, 0.1,0.1 , False, true );

      FullBodyAnimSlot.SetRootBoneAxisOption (RBA_Translate, RBA_Translate, RBA_Translate);
      

      FinishAnim(FullBodyAnimSlot.GetCustomAnimNodeSeq());

      
      Gotostate('Acrobatics');


}

Thanks, I didn't know you could set it via code if it didn't show the option in the anim tree editor.

Tested it and works perfecly, i recommend users, to trace down the floor, to avoid character flying on the air after a root motion animation. Happends in slopes and such, landscapes ....
