3-bone IK in Unreal

I'm currently involved in some R&D efforts to decide whether or not 3-bone leg IK is practical/feasible in Unreal. My understanding is that only 2-bone IK is supported out of the box. I'd love to hear any thoughts that the TAO community might have on this subject.

Awesome, thanks Zoltan. As it turns out, the programmer that is heading up the R&D effort is currently looking into using Unreal's implementation (as described at the link you provided) as a key point of reference for a custom 3-bone solution. There's a lot to like about out of the box solutions. In the end, we may well end up taking that route.
