I love the Models , the VoiceOver and the Asset , An Amazing unique asset! Thank you Lolopupka ;)
Thank you so much, I'm glad you liked it! If you really like the asset you can leave a review at the asset store! :)
Insanely helpfull, lots of usefull information packed up nicely
Thank you for the positive comment! This means a lot to me!
Oh I saw this on Lincoln's channel! Really cool to see others being able to learn from him.
True! His tutorial is very cool but it is actually a mix of a lot of tutorials that I saw. But his is definitely the most detailed one :)
This is a cool tutorial... keep up in this pace....
Thank you! :)
Great stuff, very helpful video, thank you for that :)
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it. Good luck with your projects!
It was tremendously concise, I wish all the tutorials where like this!
Thank you! :)
Wow that was pretty cool 👍🏻
Haha I got that reference, thanks! :)

Really useful, I've been trying to figure out what the easiest free method to do this is and didn't really know if Unitys method really held up but this looks good. What's the best method around getting stuff like foot placing to have the right rotation on slopes? Raycasts?
Hi! Be avare this is not free asset it will cost 25$. The best method for foot placing is Spherecast in my opinion. Rotation is handled by getting hit normal of the Spherecast. There is a few tutorials about this on CZcams so definitely check them out. I was highly relying on information I found in this free tutorials. Thanks for the positive comment :)
Hey the Asset is finnaly out if you are still interested in it go check it out :) u3d.as/30gp
This looks incredible. I bought a creature asset earlier that has a spider body for the lower half and a humanoid body for the upper half. Would this be able to give just the legs a decent walking animation while the upper half is controller by normal animations for things like attacks? If I played a jumping animation or a kicking animation would it conflict with the procedural animations and IK?
Thanks you! Yes it would be able to do that! You can mix procedural and regular animations. It is a bit harder when you want to animate an Ik because procedural animation script controls it position every frame. However you can disable the procedural animation for some legs when you want an attack animation for example. You can do both of this things pretty easily. If you run in some kind of issues with that you can contact me in discord and I'll help you with setting this up! :)
This is awesome
Thanks! :)

Thanks! :)
Good one keep going❤
Thank you!
@@lolopupka you are welcome 🤗
Extremely useful tysm but it would work with physics/active ragdolls too right?
@@user-eq8tx9sc1f Hi, thank you for the positive feedback! It depends on what do u want to implement for example simple colliders will work great. Also If you add a collider to the root transform of an object you can affect it by external forces for example push the character with other physic objects. However if you want to add physics to the body only it will be a bit tricky since the script updates body position every frame and cuz of that physics simulation could be glitchy. But in general yes you can add some physics to it! Hope it helps if you have more questions you can contact me via discord at - @lolopupka or email - karen.magik.user@gmail.com
Thank you for this!!
Thank you for the comment! :)
THANK YOU SO MUCH im working on a game called monster in the middle and i assure you i will credit you and the asset thank you so much
I'm so glad that my asset was helpful! I would like to see your game btw if you have a link for a CZcams channel or a discord. Btw an update is coming so stay tuned for that. And if you really liked the asset you can leave a review on the asset store. That would really help. Good luck with your project! :)
спасибо!
Не за что, приятно видеть русских в комментариях)
Woah that’s crazy
Thanks! :)
Really awesome work, any chance you would know what can cause the controller script to make the rig go backwards?
Thank you! What do you mean by that? You mean when pressing W key model rotates the wrong way or it goes at wrong direction? You could send me a video of your problem in discord if you want - @lolopupka
@@lolopupka it was using the speed variable in the controller script. Thanks for getting back so fast! I’ll send through a discord.
Could this asset be used to make a VR procedural Hand grip of interactable objects in OpenXR? It seems it would be if it can toggle on and off when the grip is pressed and If possible I would love to see a video on how that would be set up.
I haven't tested it in VR. But I think it could work. But this tool is manly focused on walk animation not the grip. You can try though. I'll try to do it. :)
one question, I installed the Animation rigging package but it seems that the procedural animation script is missing, any ideas why?
Animation rigging is a tool to set up the IK but the procedural animation is a custom script that comes with my own asset at the asset store. You can check it out if you are interested - u3d.as/30gp

Hey! The asset is available now with 50% discount! :)
why do my feet only move a slight bit like shuffling when I drag the actor ?
Hi, thanks for purchasing my asset! Have you set the ground layer? Is u did maybe try tweaking cycle speed. If it didn't help contact me at karen.magik.user@gmail.com or discord at - @lolopupka
when i move my model the feet dont move they just stay still even with the prefabs of your ones they stay still and dont move how can i fix this?
Hi! Thanks for buying my asset! The problem you're talking about usually resolves by setting a layermask in the procedural animation script, or you might have forgotten to set this layermask to the ground. If you have more questions, contact me via email at karen.magik.user@gmail.com or Discord at @lolopupka.
when i try to move the model it does work, the lower and upper arms work perfectly. but the feet just doesnt move. when i move the target it still doesnt move its like frozen, same with the wrist bones. i set everything up correctly, same layer and stuff. i also set up animation rigging right since im good with animation rigging. any way to fix this issue because i dont have alot of time left. thanks!
Hi! Thanks for buying my asset. Not sure what could cause this problem it would be much easier if you could provide me a video of it. You can contact me at karen.magik.user@gmail.com or discord -@lolopupka.

nice
Thanks :P
Thank you very much for this great tutorial. I have the problem that my custom spider rig imported into unity after all steps works well testing out the IK feet in the first steps but when it comes to the walking animation test all 8 feet stick to their initial position. Do you have a hint what might be the problem? Thank you very much for your help :)
Sorry for asking so fast. After 3 hours of testing I think the ground layer, that I falsely gave a tag instead of a layer was the problem :D My only problem now is to bring other colliders than the ground to work. For example letting the spider climb 90 degree Walls from ground to the wall.
@@dr.potatoo3547 Hey! I'm glad you found the problem. The wal climbing isn't included in package yet, however I'll add it very soon, so stay tuned for the updates. You can try to set up it yourself if you dont want to wait for the update. There is some good tutorials on CZcams about that.
@@lolopupka Thank you so much again for all your great work. I can only recommend to everyone to buy the script in the link.
It is very well made and works great and saves a lot of time.
I would be interested, beneath the wall climb option, if it makes sense to duplicate that spider to have a swarm of spiders.
I tried with my spider and made around 300 Copies and it works ok but I have to reduce the polygon count and texturepaint it and resculpt it probably. I would be interested if the calculation process is worth it to probably work with around several thousands of instances or if it is better in that case to use a preworked animation process because every swarme spider has to follow a target and also calculate that beneath its walking cycle and contain othe animations like falling down on hit etc.
Thank you again very very much for your great work. I am a generalist and work a lot of the workflow steps myself and it helps me a lot when I can save time 'cause my coding skills are ok but not that deep to create something like this so fast.
@@dr.potatoo3547 HI! I'm very glad that you liked my asset! Honestly, I'm not sure about 300 copies, I've never tested it with that many instances. You can try but I think that with so much spiders it's better to use regular animation. Hope this helps, good luck with your project! Do you have a CZcams channel btw? I would like to see your project.
for som reason i can't add procedural animation component, it do not apear on the list '-'
This is an asset not a standard unity script. I made this extension for unity so first you need to buy it. If you are interested, link is in description :)
Script works perfect for rigs with feet, but if its just a upper leg and lower leg, it seems to stop at setup,
Any way I can fix this?
Hey, thank you for buying my asset! I'm sorry you got problems with that. What do you mean by "just upper leg and the lover leg"? Could you please give more detailed explanation of your problem so I can help you. You can also contact me in discord if it's easier for you - @lolopupka
wow, I begun following the tutorial only to find out this need an add-on to be bought
Yeah sorry that it was not so clear. This is my paid asset. You can buy it if you want a fast result or you can follow other free tutorials :)
it works, but I need it to go at the same pase as my model. It cant keep up.
Hi! Tnanks for buying my asset! What do you mean by that? Could you please give more detailed explanation of your problem so I can help you, thanks :)
Where do you get the procedural animation script from?
Hey! Check the link in the description its an asset that I made. Be avare it's not free. However in a few days you can buy in with the 50% discount
one question the procedural animation good for low end devices means it's consuming more cpu resources or it's good like separate animations
What the script does is shooting raycasts to check for the ground, moves body and moves leg IK controllers so it doesn't consume a lot of cpu resources. Difference between this and regular animation is not that big unless you have like 100 models in your scene
@@lolopupka okey
굿!!😀
Hey! The asset is available now with 50% discount! :)
Now the question is, can it rotate its body to face the direction its moving
Can it climb a vertical wall for example? I found that one hard to overcome
Of course it can rotate ita body. But unfortunately it cant climb vertical walls yet. I'm planning to add this in the next update so subscribe if you don't want to miss the updates
@@lolopupka yes, sir
This is one of the most fun things to do in Untiy :) keep it going

Thanks for this video but can you show the script of procedural_animation ?
unfortunately I can not this is a paid asset but you are interested in it go check it out :) u3d.as/30gp
Would this system also work, if the character is simulating physics?
Sure! But how exactly is it simulating physics for example if you just mean collisions they will work but if something more complex I need a bit more details. This script changes position of the body bone and Ik targets every frame so you likely won't be able to push them with physics forces. However you can interact with the whole model in the collider attached to the root transform for example. For more details you can contact me via discord at @lolopupka or email - karen.magik.user@gmail.com
@@lolopupka Well I want to create self balancing ragdolls. And to balance themselves I wanted to use procedural animation. But if I cant push them using physical forces like you said it wont work. But thanks for helping me
noiceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
At 3:24 when I move my targets to the main body they are off (They change location). Is there a way to avoid this or I did something wrong please help
Oh sorry never mind. I was in play mode when I made those changes🤦♂🤦♂
@@mduduzimdu6160 no problem I also often do smth at play mode and forget about it. Btw you can make the editor window change collor when entering playmode this is really helpful and you always know you are in playmode. Thanks for buying my asset! :)

Hey! What kind of problem? Maybe I could help. You can also contact me in discord and I'll help with your setup :)
@lolopupka
The model I think has all the stuff I need I made the model so I don’t know if I’m correct
Please help: When testing in play mode, the bones move but the mesh stays static! Am I missing a step?

Is it possible to make the spider walk up the wall or even on the ceiling?
