Those five First Person Perspective animation sets allow you to build gameplay for virtually any melee weapon. FPP camera and weapon models can be attached directly to head and hand bones – no special prop bones are needed.

This is not a full body animation set. Legs are animated only if necessary (in kick animation for example). Character controller is not included – just 360 animations for building your FPP game.

Important/Additional Notes:

Those are FPP animations only, legs are often not animated and not to be shown, except if needed (for kick or slide for example). Attach the camera directly to the head bone and weapons to right hand bone. Spear and shield are an exception – attach them to the left hand bone, not right.

I strongly recommend using characters rigged to Epic skeleton when using those animations, but if your FPP character has a different skeleton and you need to retarget the motions, using IK on the hands, to stabilize them on the weapon grip, might come in handy.
