If groom is used in UE5, Rendering -> Optimisation -> Enable Support Compute Skin Cache in the project settings.

(I have confirmed the operation of Groom only on Windows.

Animations and 3D model of a Swan are the main contents of this asset.

A demonstration is ready with a character that repeats flight to the

landing point, the behavior of walking or swimming.

(Blueprints/BP_SwanRandomBehavior).

In the demonstration you can also use an operable

character(Blueprints/BP_SwanThirdPersonCharacter).

The feet of these characters are grounded at the correct position and

angle with respect to the ground by using two bone IK and animation curves.

An approach run is necessary for these characters to take off like a

real swan.

In order to express the bend of flight feathers, two bones were used per

flight feathers.

Hence the number of bones became many(bones count:228).

Please be careful if your environment is limited in the number of bones.

FBX files are contained in Swan/FBX folder.

How to use BP_SwanRandomBehavior:

1. Place the BP_SwanLandingPoint in the scene as many as you like.

2. Place the BP_SwanRandomBehavior in the scene as many as you like.

Then BP_SwanRandomBehavior repeats fly toward to LandingPoint, the

behavior of walking or swimming randomly.

BP_SwanThirdPerson operation method:

wasd or arrow: walk

r+(wasd or arrow): run

r+(wasd or arrow)+f: take off

wasd: up speed and turn speed change

arrow: forward speed and turn speed changeTechnical Details
