The goal of this pack is to add some variety to city squares, where your NPCs need to jump for joy or be terrified by what they've heard. These simple animations, without complex interactions, simulate a cheering or terrified crowd through a variety of poses.
These animations were primarily developed for NPCs, creating atmosphere to bring the scenery to life. Here you'll find animations for: the announcer delivering news of the king's return, which can be celebrated with joyful jumps or bowing your head in despair; a small musical concert is coming up, where joyful hand movements are just right, or, conversely, covering your ears in disbelief; supporting your horse during a competitive race or feeling the urge to vomit from the realization of a lost bet. These animations are also suitable for adding variety to dialogue; you can find them all here. All of these are for Manny and Quinn.
This simple package is ideal for projects with busy spaces.
The package is very easy to use, let's look at an example:
AS_She_Crowd_Joifull_2_1Start - means:
AS - animation sequence She - that the UE Mannequin, specifically its Queen version, was used to develop the animation Crowd - the character's actions are designed to create the illusion of a crowd Joifull - this crowd is more likely to be happy than not 2 - indicates an animation variant 1Start - indicates the order of the animations in the animation chain, specifically in this case, this is the first animation and is the transition from the base state to the cycle
Naturally, you can use the animations however you like, but just in case, we'll give an example of how we designed the chains.
AS_She_Crowd_Joifull_2_1Start - The character assumes a pose AS_She_Crowd_Joifull_2_2Loop - Idle cycle, the character feigns the ability to rally AS_She_Crowd_Joifull_2_3Tranzit - Transition to another Idle variant AS_She_Crowd_Joifull_2_4Loop - Cycle of this Idle (additional variant for variety) AS_She_Crowd_Joifull_2_5Tranzit - Transition back AS_She_Crowd_Joifull_2_6End - End of chain
