Importing more animation data
To see more animations at work, you can go to the Unreal Engine Marketplace and search for the Animation Starter Pack. This is a free animation pack that works with Unreal Engine version 5.0 and you can add it to your project if your project is still open.

- Navigate there and right-click on one of the animation...
