PROCEDURAL
SPIDER WALK

After creating the bone structure and skinning the model on Maya, the actual rigging was programmed using Unreal Engine's Control Rig blueprints.

Using a CCDIK solver for the legs, The precise location for each foot is computed based on the spider velocity, body height, acceleration, and of course, the environment. There's also a specific z-axis interpolation curve for each step.

Furthermore, each step's speed, delay between each step, and reach vary based on the spider's speed and acceleration as well. There are also exposed variables that make setting different stances (stealth, combat, defensive) straightforward and automatically adjust dependent constraints between themselves for optimized smoothness and realism.
