Need a little help with Paper 2D

So I’m still quite new to Unreal and have been learning (and this is a bit outside the courses here lol) about different stuff and came across the 2D bundle humble bundle is currently offering.

I was following along the UE documentation and some other guides I could find, but hit a few snags.

These two guides are a bit out of date and was wondering even if sprite stuff is possible to get working with the new Enhanced Input System.


So the input system looks like this, I used the basic top down one as I tried to make it kinda 2,5D like game.

The guide uses this older system. So I got to the point where the character moves when I click around but the animation won’t update.


This is my current setup, which is done like in the tutorial with the exception that I did two Enumerations, one for walking anims and one for idles, just to test the animation switching.

Any ideas how to make the animation update correctly? Also the second problem I had that I had is that is it possible to use the tile sprites in any way with UE? I couldn’t find anything online about this. Things like barrels, signs, lamp posts etc. How those could be put into a level?
