Okay, so in this lecture I'm going to be creating the animations for each gun.

2
00:00:05,740 --> 00:00:11,350
Specifically, we will need an animation for equipping the gun and animation for reloading the gun and

3
00:00:11,350 --> 00:00:12,970
an animation for shooting the gun.

4
00:00:12,970 --> 00:00:17,320
And you need to do this for all of the guns in the game, but we can also reuse some animations for

5
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:18,310
our shotguns.

6
00:00:18,310 --> 00:00:23,290
I must note that there are several things you must do if you're going to create your own animations.

7
00:00:23,290 --> 00:00:26,890
First, the equip animation must only be one keyframe long.

8
00:00:26,890 --> 00:00:32,050
It must be repeating, and it must have an animation priority of at least movement or greater.

9
00:00:32,050 --> 00:00:35,740
This is because we need to override the default equip animation for tools.

10
00:00:36,370 --> 00:00:37,630
For the shoot animation.

11
00:00:37,630 --> 00:00:42,490
You can make the length whatever you'd like, but just make sure the animation priority is set to action.

12
00:00:42,940 --> 00:00:47,680
And then for the reload animation, you want to make sure that the animation is one second long in total,

13
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:51,130
meaning that from the first keyframe to the last keyframe is one second.

14
00:00:51,130 --> 00:00:55,780
This is because we're going to manipulate the speed at which the reload animation is played, giving

15
00:00:55,780 --> 00:00:59,320
us total control for how long we want the reload animation to be played.

16
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:03,040
You also want to set the reload animation to have an action priority as well.

17
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:08,380
If there isn't enough keyframes in one second for your reload animation, then you can adjust the frame

18
00:01:08,380 --> 00:01:11,920
rate of your animation to give you more detailed controls.

19
00:01:12,070 --> 00:01:17,560
Both the shoot and reload animations should have a starting and ending keyframe that is the exact same

20
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:18,910
as your equip animation.

21
00:01:18,910 --> 00:01:23,500
If you'd like to use the animations I've created, then I have attached a model to this lecture that

22
00:01:23,500 --> 00:01:26,290
you can grab and publish the animations to your account.

23
00:01:26,290 --> 00:01:31,150
Otherwise, enjoy this short montage of me creating the animations and I'll see you in the next lecture.
