Let's Build the RPG! - 38 – Control Rig AnimGraph UE5 Beginner Tutorial - Head and Neck Rotation
In this episode we set up a brand new Control Rig for head and neck rotation and integrate it directly into the Unreal Engine 5 Mannequin. The idea is that, just by holding right click or any button, the player's character automatically turns their head and neck in the direction in which the player is looking (based on control rotation). We also put on the finishing touches of the Control Rig set up by making sure it works with all the fire gameplay abilities we set up in previous episodes.
