Spline System Tutorial

Dive into a world of unparalleled realism with our Ocean Animals Pack!

This pack features five unique creatures, each equipped with an advanced procedural spline animation system. This system automatically adjusts bone rotations, enabling fluid motion around corners and variable speeds. Each animal’s system contains approximately 20 customizable variables. Additionally, the Cuttlefish boasts dynamic camouflage adaptation, adjusting its appearance based on the surface material below.

The pack includes:

The Orca contains 6 animations: gliding, swim slow, swim fast, beached, begging & eating.

The Dolphin animations include gliding, swim slow & swim fast. All other creatures contain gliding and swim fast animations.

Each animal has between 3 & 4 LODS. The Orca & Dolphin include Dry & Wet Materials. The Material parents have been planned in advance to allow maximum tweaking so you can adjust your material instances with complete control. The Dolphin and Cuttlefish also include Vertex Animations compatible with the Fish School System.

Additionally, a demo scene has been included with 3 Rock Static Meshes that have 3 material types: Standard rock, Sandy & Very Sandy. The sand on these rocks is vector based, so it only appears on the top of the rocks. The scene also includes a Terrain Material with 2 layers, Underwater PostProcess Settings, Caustic Lighting, Fog, and Depth of Field.
