About

I've wrote extended skeletal animation support. Features:

• returns bone details (position, orientation, etc)
• returns whenever bone exists or not
• returns number of bones
• returns bone name by index

Functions

function GetBoneDetails

native static final function GetBoneDetails(SkeletalMesh SkeletalMesh, string BoneName, bool bNoRelative, out rotator Orientation, out vector Position, out float Length, out vector Size);

Returns bone details as output parameters

input parameters:

• SkeletalMesh - skeletal mesh. Can look like: SkeletalMesh(Mesh)
• string BoneName - bone name. Eg. "Bip01 R Finger1"
• bool bNoRelative - if false, it'll also take all root bones position/orientation into account

output parameters

• rotator Orientation - bone rotation
• vector Position - bone position
• float Length - bone lenght
• vector Size - bone size

function GetBoneLocation

native static final function vector GetBoneLocation(SkeletalMesh SkeletalMesh, string BoneName, bool bNoRelative);

Returns bone position

input parameters:

• SkeletalMesh - skeletal mesh. Can look like: SkeletalMesh(Mesh)
• string BoneName - bone name. Eg. "Bip01 R Finger1"
• bool bNoRelative - if false, it'll also take all root bones

function GetBoneRotation

[coden]ative static final function rotator GetBoneRotation(SkeletalMesh SkeletalMesh, string BoneName, bool bNoRelative);</uscript> Returns bone orientation

input parameters:

• SkeletalMesh - skeletal mesh. Can look like: SkeletalMesh(Mesh)
• string BoneName - bone name. Eg. "Bip01 R Finger1"
• bool bNoRelative - if false, it'll also take all root bones

function BoneExists

native static final function bool BoneExists(SkeletalMesh SkeletalMesh, string BoneName);

Returns whenever given bone exists or not

input parameters:

• SkeletalMesh - skeletal mesh. Can look like: SkeletalMesh(Mesh)
• string BoneName - bone name. Eg. "Bip01 R Finger1"

function GetNumBones

native static final function int GetNumBones(SkeletalMesh SkeletalMesh);

Returns number of bones in given skeletal mesh

input parameters:

• SkeletalMesh - skeletal mesh. Can look like: SkeletalMesh(Mesh)

function GetBoneNameByIndex

native static final function name GetBoneNameByIndex(SkeletalMesh SkeletalMesh, int index);

Returns bone name

input parameters:

• SkeletalMesh - skeletal mesh. Can look like: SkeletalMesh(Mesh)
• int index - bone index (use GetNumBones to have list of all bones)

Changelog

• v 0.0.1 (first public release)
  • added function GetBoneRotation and GetBoneLocation
