Free Full Body FPS Controller (WIP)

[smoky siren]

I have overhauled my full body fps controller I will be adding more animations later on like crouching, sliding etc but how else can I improve it? https://streamable.com/yyfpip

[scarlet lion]

animations are nice but they look too slow for the speed the player is travelling

it just makes it look like hes sliding everywhere unnaturally

[smoky siren]

do they look to slow for walking or running?

[scarlet lion]

both

less for running obv

running is almost fine actually

[smoky siren]

Alright thanks for the feedback better get back to it!

[scarlet lion]

no worries have fun

[tribal moth]

looks actually amazing, just a question on how you managed to get that camera bopping with your animation. Ive tried every solution but could find anything about it on the internet

[smoky siren]

I am using separate scripts on my camera I have a script just for head bob. How about this tomorrow I will send you a copy of the head bob script. It's 9:38 at night were I live so hopefully tomorrow I will hit you up and send it to you!

[tribal moth]

Sure anything is welcome! im new to unity anyway and want to learn from other developers. Thank you so much i really appreciete it : D

[smoky siren]

No problem 👍

[smoky siren]

Btw I have nearly completed my full body FPS controller and it will be completely free. If you are struggling to make your own version you can look forward to using mine when its done 👍

[tribal moth]

great to hear man! ill try to use your as a reference but ill still try to write my own code so i still can try to learn from it hahah

[smoky siren]

👍

[smoky siren]

Do you mind if I could see your full body FPS controller? Send a clip.

[vital trout]

Will you release it anywhere? 👀

[smoky siren]

Probably on unity asset store

[vital trout]

No problem good luck 👌

What are you using btw?

Just the default animator component in Unity?

[smoky siren]

Yes

Also a full movement set

Here is a recent video I made. Made a few changes and added a jump/land animation.

Still need to fix the camera positioning when jumping XD

[vital trout]

Looking good dude

Have you added any integration functions yet?

How easy is it is it to switch characters?

[smoky siren]

Wdym? I have not added that no do I want to. This is just a simple full body FPS controller that you can improve upon. I made this for people who either struggle to make one or don't have any experience making one.

Nooo sorry I meant like using different 3D models

Have you made it easy to integrate ?

[smoky siren]

Oh well yes but if you want to use other models instead of the one I provide here's how you have to do it. First you will need a model of your choosing. Then you need to put that model in blender and separate the head from the body so its a separate mesh. If you don't separate it and you just use it as is it will look very bad and your going see your own head when moving around. If you don't know how to separate the head its incredibly simple I have a 1:44 seconds video tutorial on how to do it = https://youtu.be/eYlTIzWN4-s?si=BJXnYg1E_P1Q5q81

The reason why you have to separate the head is so you can cast shadows only on the head

if your still confused here's a video. It might not look bad having the head on but it will LOOK bad when adding more stuff like crouching down the line. https://streamable.com/u3zndy

I liked how in amnesia (The horror game) you can pick up objects and throw them so I added it in my fps full body kit so now you can pick up objects by pressing E and throw objects by pressing the right mouse button and the left mouse button drops the object and E also drops the object when holding an object. Also when the object collides with a wall it will collide smoothly but not perfect. And when the object gets stuck and you move away the object will drop automatically when the player is at a certain distance. Here is a video!

[vital trout]

Gotcha.

[smoky siren]

@vital trout @tribal moth @scarlet lion Sorry for bothering you but if you aren't to busy I build the game and I would like you to test it out. would love the feed back!

[scarlet lion]

i think you need to make the link public nothing happens when i click on it in drive

[smoky siren]

how do I make it public?

[vital trout]

Not home right now sorry

[scarlet lion]

i believe you right click on the folder, click share and i think you can change the settings there

[smoky siren]

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1B0hTsGwVVcdsj27L9nOqlonnvrUSPe1Q?usp=drive_link

that should work now

[scarlet lion]

yup ill give that a go

[smoky siren]

to pick up objects its E and to throw its the right mouse button

[scarlet lion]

stuff ive found so far:

• you cant jump on stairs unless you are fully on a step
• the character gets stuck on stairs if he is holding an object and is slightly looking down
• jumping fucks up the camera
• i can stand fully off of ledges without falling if i edge across
• no crouch
• no step sounds
• if you jump while moving, your body looks weird when it lands because it just looks like its sliding

[smoky siren]

Thanks for the feedback!

[scarlet lion]

no worries, youve made a pretty smooth controller i like it
