In this Course, you will learn the concepts to build a Traversal Parkour System which includes Climb, Hop, Mantle and Vault. The base concepts behind most of the Traversal Actions remains the same. So Learning the basics will help you get ready to further explore and build advanced systems.

This Course is a Simplified version of the Traversal System which can be easily understood by Beginners.

The Unreal engine concepts covered in this course is not only applied for Traversal System. It can be used in a lot of scenarios in Game development. This course will be regularly updated with more use cases in the future.

We will use only free animations from Mixamo through out this course. Motion Warping and Inverse Kinematics or IK will be used to build the Parkour abilities. This course is designed for Unreal Engine Developers at any level. Blueprints are used through-out this course. We start with a beginner’s section covering the Unreal Engine Concepts used in this course followed by the Implementation of Traversal Parkour System.

The Goal of this Course is to Cover the fundamentals of building a Traversal Parkour System using Unreal Engine.

Please understand this is not a Product which can be readily used in games. But, consider this as a Workshop to learn Unreal Engine with a Practical Example of Building a Traversal Parkour System. Once, you understand the concepts covered and build your foundations strong, You will be in a position to develop solid products and frameworks covering all the needs of your Next Generation Games.

There is an Additional Section for Developers interested to try the Traversal System in Lyra.
