Have you ever played with the default UE5 character and missed some immersion? It is probably because you don't have dynamic footstep sounds and effects! Use this system to easily adapt and change your footstep sounds.

This system is extensive, the core features are as follows:

• Based on physical surfaces, switch footstep sounds and effects
• Includes Wet footsteps trigger in shallow water
• Defined in an actor component so you can drag it on your character
• Works with auto landscape material, example included
• Triggered via Animation Notify, easy to set up.
• Also works on non-humanoid characters.
• Light, Moderate, and Heavy steps possible. For instance, a light character should spawn a different sound on grass than a heavy one. These sound variants are not included but it is easy to switch!

 The most common surfaces are included in this project:

• Sand
• Grass
• Stone
• Snow
• Wood
• Water
• And a default surface layer for fallback if none is specified.

This system includes a basic “Extended Movement Component”. It is capable of

·        Handles player inputs via the Enhanced Input System. It uses input mapping and I have included an advanced method for handling and dynamically linking and unlinking mapping contexts.

·        Provides a central place for the replication of montages, particle effects, spawning actors, and sounds.

·        Is full of useful functions related to your character: Switch Global orientation between strafing and forward-facing character, Define Gender, get active camera component, and more

·        Manages the camera of the player. It includes: zooming, switching between shoulder cameras, and basic first-person view

Hyper is empowering virtual world builders like yourself. Eric Ruts is running it and is the creator of all assets.

I would like you to focus on the creative side of your project, and I want to provide you with the building blocks to kickstart your dream. I have spent years of work on the assets I have made available and you are able to leverage that knowledge and work on your project! Please feel free to share your projects in Discord or via mail! I would love to know what awesome things you are working on.

Quality First

The best and nothing less. Our core principles keep our assets the top of what’s available.

Where possible:

·        Complete and flexible, I include the most common use cases for most types of games in our products.

·        Data-Driven approach, so adapting is easy. We provide spreadsheets for mass edits.

·        Flawless integrations.

·        Blueprint only, so we keep it accessible for you and your complete team.

·        Extensive documentation, I try to comment on everything in the code. Besides that, the systems come with documentation after verification. I try to not only explain what happens by also why. I want you to be able to learn.

·        I aim for my assets to be production-ready.

 Example Images and content

On the product page, I use some example images of how it can look in a populated scene. That populated scene is not included. The scene in the example area is. Check out the demo for the full experience!

Nearly everything is made by myself! However, I am also using amazing Epic Games content where I can. Also, I do make use of CC0 assets where possible. Credits are in the readme files.
