Making a Vehicle Animation In Unreal Engine With Rush Hour

Today we walk through the full process of creating a vehicle animation in Unreal Engine. We'll use Rush Hour and create an animation in the MAWI Burned Dead Trees Forest Biome.

Rush Hour is a new way to easily and realistically animate vehicles in Unreal Engine. I like to think of it as having your own AI stunt driver ready to make your movie!

Rush Hour is available now on the Unreal Engine Marketplace.
