Unreal Engine 4 - 2 Bone IK Foot Placement System

Keep your feet on the ground! This component will do just that by doing a line trace from each foot. It also adjusts the hip down if needed to allow the feet to touch the ground.

DESCRIPTION:

No IK bones required! This will work with the default animations, the free starter pack animations and more!

Each foot has a line trace to position them independently. Also offsets pelvis/hip bone to allow foot to touch lower ground.

Example project also has replicated events for Walk, Run, and Sprint. Crouch is also included, and the capsule has a smooth re-size transition for crouch.
