What we do here will apply to almost any engine. In later chapters, I'll also make videos that are focused on a specific engine (Unreal/Unity/Godot). For each game, we cover we'll do slight modifications to this technique to get the best results out of it. But understanding this general workflow will make our work much easier so please don't skip this chapter! The "basic principle" consists of splitting your character rig into a "game rig" and "control rig". The "control rig" allows you to easily animate your character in Blender. The "game rig" on the other hand is kept very simple, just the way game engines like it. We then establish a connection between the two rigs using constraints but avoiding any parent-child relationship between the two armature layers.
