Casting from Character BP to Actor Anim BP

Hey guys,I plan to make a 3rd person archery game, I’ve got almost everything set up but I’m having trouble with the Bow Animation. The archer is treated as a Character and the bow as an Actor being socketed into her hand. What I’m trying to do is have a boolean from the character BP control the Animation of the bow an Actor.

Thanks a lot!!

For the object reference try some of these:


Get player character

Get player controller


One of those should work hopefully!

[Get player Character] worked perfectly, Thanks a lot!!!

Hi, Is it posible to share the blueprint? I´m doing something similar and i get stuck in the bow animation. Other question? where do you get the animation of the bow?

Greetings
