在游戏中,许多音效需要在动画恰当的时机出现,例如行走、奔跑,就需要恰好在足部落地瞬间播放。

而AnimNotify就能非常方便地处理此类问题。

AnimNotify,顾名思义就是动画通知,能在特定的动画片段播放到特定进度时“发出消息”。

目前我们的工程有前、后、左、右、左前、右前、左后、右后八向的跑动动画。

先以向前跑为例,用右键添加通知的方式,分别在右脚、左脚落地时添加了lfoot_touchground与rfoot_touchground的两个自定义通知

当然直接添加playsound通知也是可以的,能很方便地直接设置声音,但为了功能的可扩展性我们还是使用自定义通知。

然而我们如何才能获取这些通知呢?

if (mesh) {
        UAnimInstance* anim=mesh->GetAnimInstance();
        if (anim) {
            TArray<const struct FAnimNotifyEvent*> AnimNotifies=anim->NotifyQueue.AnimNotifies;
            range(i,0,AnimNotifies.Num()) {
                FString NotifyName=AnimNotifies[i]->NotifyName.ToString();
                /*GEngine->A/ddOnScreenDebugMessage
                (-1, 5.f, FColor::Red, FString::FromInt(i)+" "+ NotifyName);*/
                if (NotifyName=="lfoot_touchground") {
                    audio_lfoot->SetSound(sb_walks[0]);
                    audio_lfoot->Play();
                }
                else if (NotifyName == "rfoot_touchground") {
                    audio_rfoot->SetSound(sb_walks[1]);
                    audio_rfoot->Play();
                }
                else {

                }
            }
        }
    }

 

没错,就是这么简单anim->NotifyQueue即为动画通知队列,AnimNotifies就能获取当前所有通知事件,上述代码去掉注释即可打印当前帧所有动画通知名称。

为了实现播放音效,我们还需要绑定在左右脚的AudioComponent,如果当前通知队列中有对应的通知,就先SetSound设置将要播放的声音资源后再Play。

我把所有需要绑定在Chracter的Mesh上的AudioComponent“打包装入“了一个叫AudioController的类,在Character的构造函数中进行了AudioController的构造,并将AudioController中的各音效组件绑定到对应的socket上。

                }
            }
        }
    }
    else {
        throw std::exception("mesh not exist!!");
    }

}

 

还有character类中audiocontroller的定义和创建:

AAimPraticeHuman::AAimPraticeHuman()
{
#ifdef AudioController_h
	audiocontroller = CreateDefaultSubobject<UAudioController>("audiocontroller");
	audiocontroller->my_init(GetMesh());
#endif
}

 

UPROPERTY(Category = Audio, VisibleDefaultsOnly, BlueprintReadOnly, meta = (AllowPrivateAccess = "true"))
  class UAudioController* audiocontroller = NULL;

 

最后就是音效导入,看似简单其实有很多细节。

建议直接拖入wav格式文件,如果导入失败应该是wav文件具体参数的问题。

(我用Audition把一长串的跑步音效分割出了两声脚碰地的声音,直接导入ue4报错,然而先用格式工厂转一下就ok了)

 

当然现在的音效还不能直接用于游戏脚步,还需要先设置并发和立体效果。

Concurrency项勾选override即可,使用”先远后旧“的并发停止策略问题也不大。

Attenuation项我新建了一个叫SceneSoundAttenuation蓝图,设置如下:

这些选项看字面都比较好理解,3D Stereo Spread的意思其实就是左右耳间距。

 

最后别忘了设置character蓝图的sb_walks数组的值,以及左右脚的socketname

 

 

大功告成啦!

具体效果。。。反正你们也听不到。。。
