NOTE: 345 videos, fully uploaded!

This is the most comprehensive Unreal Engine tutorial series on the internet. You will create a shooter game complete with AAA quality gameplay mechanics. Learn the theory behind the gameplay mechanics of shooter games, then implement them in this beautiful game project. Topics covered are:

• Character creation and movement

• Input for PC and console controllers

• Extensive use of Animation Blueprints (and Anim Instances, their C++ parents)

• 1D and 2D Blendspaces

• Strafing

• Turn-in-place

• Aim Offsets

• Inverse Kinematics

• Animation Curves

• Character lean when running

• Crouching (with dynamic capsule resizing)

• Turn hips while running

• Weapon fire with recoil animations

• Reloading

• Weapon blast and impact particles

• Weapon beam particles (smoke trails)

• Bullet shell eject particles

• Sound effects

• Blending animations per bone, by bool, and by enum - play one animation with one part of the body (running or crouching) while simultaneously playing another animation with another part of the body (reload, aim, or weapon fire)

• Attach and equip different weapons (pistols, submachine guns, assault rifles)

• Automatic and semi-automatic gunfire

• Move different gun parts (the clip/magazine, and pistol slide) during animations
