Talk Component

Talk Component is the fastest and most convenient option to connect a plugin to generate Lip Sync animations in Runtime scripts.

To get started with the Talk Component, add it to your avatar's Blueprint. To do this, press +Add, in the context menu that appears, type Talk in the search field and select BP Talk Component.

Adding a Talk Component

You can then call the Talk Component functionality in Blueprints and set the necessary functions to generate Lip Sync animations.

If you have text that needs to be voiced, select Talk Text. If you already have your own sound file or a source with sound generation, Talk Sound is the right choice.

Examples of Talk Component nodes

Talk Component can also communicate states to control animations in animated Blueprints.

Animation Blueprints, which you can find in the plugin files, are based on such notifications. You can read more about animation blueprints in the Animation States section of Additional functionality.
