(Solved) Non root motion 3rd Person WASD setup.
« on: April 21, 2016, 10:29:49 AM »
Hello,
I am following the excellent Pandurs tutorial on youtube to set up a 3rd Person player character control using Playmaker.
Here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L1mZri6-tn8&list=PLn4sS8aiQ7jlFofBDLJ7J31KOfldhbrXH

Unlike in the video however, I have made my own characters, and we always made our characters animating on the spot (for instance walking on the spot) which means that my project does not match the one in the tutorial, which uses a character with root motion.

I have got my character playing walk/strafe animations using WASD, as per the instructions (it feels great!), but it does not move around the scene.

Can anyone tell me how to achieve this, the Playmaker way? To make W move the character forward?
Or can you point to another tutorial that deals with this?

Thanks in advance.
