Unreal Engine 5.4 Motion Matching in 13 Minutes | 2024

Motion matching is a powerful tool that eliminates the need for handcrafted state machines. Instead, it dynamically selects the most fitting animation frame from a database, closely matching the character's current pose, past movements, and future trajectory.

This comprehensive tutorial dives into three key features: Motion Matching for seamless animation blending, One-click Retargeting to effortlessly import Mixamo animations, and Animation Blueprints for creating dynamic character control.
