This is the most comprehensive Unreal Engine tutorial series on the internet. You will create a shooter game complete with AAAquality gameplay mechanics. Learn the theory behind the gameplay mechanics of shooter games, then implement them in this beautiful game project. Topics covered are:
Character creation and movement
Input for PC and console controllers
Extensive use of Animation Blueprints (and Anim Instances, their C++parents)
1D and 2DBlendspaces
Strafing
Turn-in-place
Aim Offsets
Inverse Kinematics
Animation Curves
Character lean when running
Crouching (with dynamic capsule resizing)
Turn hips while running
Weapon fire with recoil animations
Reloading
Weapon blast and impact particles
Weapon beam particles (smoke trails)
Bullet shell eject particles
Sound effects
Blending animations per bone, by bool, and by enum - play one animation with one part of the body (running or crouching) while simultaneously playing another animation with another part of the body (reload, aim, or weapon fire)
Attach and equip different weapons (pistols, submachine guns, assault rifles)
Automatic and semi-automatic gunfire
Move different gun parts (the clip/magazine, and pistol slide) during animations
Camera zoom while aiming
Dynamic crosshairs that spread in reaction to:
Character speed
Weapon fire
Aiming
Jumping
Different crosshairs per weapon
Widget components, showing:
Item names
Item types
Ammo counts
Item rarity
HUD animations
Full item inventory system
Data tables, in Blueprints and C++
Curves to control:
Item movement during pickup
Color and brightness pulse for material effects
Material creation, including:
Post-process materials
Dynamic material instances
Setting material properties from C++
Driving material properties with curves
Material functions

Headshot damage, with:
Higher damage for headshots
Number widgets that pop up and animate with bullet hits
Different colored numbers for headshots
Character and enemy health bars
Enemy patrol, agro, chase and attack player
Death mechanics
Stun mechanics
Melee attacks with melee weapon trails
Explosives that cause damage and death
