Welcome to the first episode of my new Unreal Engine Weekly Dev Log! In this video, I'm showcasing my dinosaur riding/mount system—built using a mix of Sketchfab models, and custom animations. Originally meant for my multiplayer survival game course, this feature quickly spiraled into its own project (with plenty of hilarious glitches along the way). I’ll break down how the system works, the challenges of adapting animations, and why it’s almost—but not quite—ARK: Survival Evolved levels of polished. Whether you're a game dev, dino enthusiast, or just love seeing janky prototypes, join me as I ride through this Unreal Engine experiment!
