Can someone give me any idea how to properly save and load on dedicated server? Do I have to replicate variables or events or should it be easier than that? I've been struggling to get my game to take off.

#

I can save the player location successfully but my equipment array returns none frustrating

Why does it take so many people to create a simplish game like fortnite battle royale? Like it seems like you’d only need 2 programmers, 3 modelers, 3 animators, 1 character designer, 1/2 level designers, 1/2vcomposer/sfx designer, 1 producer, and a few other things i’m not thinking of rn. This is if you used a commercial engine like unity, cryengine, or unreal, and if you had a good 6 months. Why then do these games take 100s of ppl?

grim ore Aug 11, 2018, 6:06 AM

#

because you are wrong with your estimate if you expect it to be released polished within a reasonable timeframe.

plush yew Aug 11, 2018, 6:07 AM

#

how tho, the game mechanics are so simple @grim ore

grim ore Aug 11, 2018, 6:07 AM

#

then we all wait to see your prototype of this in 6 months.

plush yew Aug 11, 2018, 6:07 AM

#

um i’m one guy and plus i’m asking a question why r u being a dick

#

i could easily perfect a jump out of a bus mechanic in one day as a programmer, and i would have 6 months worth of days left to complete other things so 2 programmers should be plenty

grim ore Aug 11, 2018, 6:09 AM

#

which of the positions on that team would you fit for the game dev aspect?

plush yew Aug 11, 2018, 6:09 AM

#

ofc there’s networking concerns for the other programmer

#

gameplay programmer i suppose

grim ore Aug 11, 2018, 6:10 AM

#

You should make a battle royale project then and sell it on the marketplace. you wouldnt need the rest of the people and you should be able to make it fairly quickly. It would be good money

plush yew Aug 11, 2018, 6:11 AM

#

Well I’m not trying to do this. I’m just trying to understand why so many people are needed

grim ore Aug 11, 2018, 6:11 AM

#

because your concept of what is needed is missing experience

plush yew Aug 11, 2018, 6:12 AM

#

they come out with new skins and animations almost everyday so ik they are capable of creating assets quickly

#

you’re right actually

grim ore Aug 11, 2018, 6:14 AM

#

break down exactly what would be needed to recreate fortnite:BR in a design document then assign rough estimates to what you think each part might take. then multiply that by 1.5. you would have to make sure you go into stupid insane amounts of detail for each part needed as well to make sure it's accurate. You might be surprised at the amount of work to get the basics done. Then double the time to get it polished to a decent state. then add another 100% of the base time to get it balanced.

#

Sure a walk animation is fine but getting a walk animation that blends properly with every other possible animation and fits multiple skeletons and sizes and is unique to your art style might take more than an hour.

#

and that's assuming you only have 1 gender, it would have to be changed to fit the other gender and this is just a walk cycle

plush yew Aug 11, 2018, 6:17 AM

#

Ahh that makes a lot of sense, so really it could be done but it would take over a year

grim ore Aug 11, 2018, 6:19 AM

#

time is semi relative to the amount of bodies working, that is why you have multiple people and teams working in parallel on different things. One team might be live ops working on game balance and bug fixes. Another might be animating the next seasons character emotes at the same time another part of that same team is designing the season after that emotes

mint raptor Aug 11, 2018, 2:08 PM

#

General question that is starting to concern me. In my GameMode I have it check for all actors of a certain class on begin play. My concern is it won't get those references (or it will become some sort of race condition). if game mode is made first and all actors last

#

Is this a legit concern? Or does the engine have some sort of counter measure? So far my runs have been good.

if you could help

#

its really appreciated

dim arch Aug 11, 2018, 3:38 PM

#

@mint raptor ye you can sometimes have a bad reference because 2 beginplay events in seperate graphs referencing/creating thr actor happen at the same time

#

you can fix it with delay node, so whichever bp uses getallactors and sets object refs happens first

#

idk the answer to your Problem @astral marsh but spamming is not going to help

#

@mint raptor IF the objects are spawned after beginplay then you should run it after. or use a branch/delay to run it

#

the getallactors function

mint raptor Aug 11, 2018, 4:01 PM

#

@dim arch yea figured to use delay but it's working? I just don't know if there is room for failure lol

Is it possible to set up an NPC to travel back and forth from one level instance to another. Say if I have a hex grid thats a town and I want it to travel to another hex grid to gather resources or trade with another town. (each hex being its own level)

versed spear Aug 11, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

Just save what you need destroy actor and recreate it on load screen with whatever info it need.

wary wave Aug 11, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

you probably want to spawn a copy in the other level instance

dire storm Aug 11, 2018, 6:34 PM

#

okay. thank you. I completely forgot about that. So what I'm trying to achieve is an overall world view camera and then you can click a hex to zoom in on that level and stream in the info but when you zoom back out you can still see important NPCs traveling to other hexes. Even if its only for visual effect (simulated) and the actual game impact (resources collected) is independent of the animation

versed spear Aug 11, 2018, 6:36 PM

#

what happens when you zoom in during travel?

#

I would use 2 actors one for the traveling and one for the zoom in view. When the traveling one gets to location or new zone. That is when the zoom out actor controls the other actors spawn.

dire storm Aug 11, 2018, 6:38 PM

#

There's an overall map view or world view which you can scroll through. You can mouse over hexes to get general info and then zoom into a section by clicking the tile. Thats what I'm trying to setup basically. I'm just writing down ideas of "how do you handle this" situations.

@pallid compass make an enum with all weapon types, that works

pallid compass Aug 11, 2018, 8:07 PM

#

its too clunky for me

#

however

#

i found the holy grail for it

#

and u cant access it by normal means

#

drag any animation in

#

activate pin for it

#

clear the variable

#

#

U cant get a blank one through searches tho? lmfao

frosty bloom Aug 11, 2018, 8:09 PM

#

Yeah I got that in a few places, switching out all animations used and blendspaces etc is a lot easier with an enum (Thats what i use) :]

pallid compass Aug 11, 2018, 8:09 PM

#

Well im using data assets with helpers built in too them

#

so everything is plug and play flexi

#

you just input a gameplayTag

and u get the right anim out for w/e u need

Thing about it is, that's gonna slow-track your animgraph

I was just gonna use a data asset ptr, and when weapon change etc, update the data asset ptr, thats got a ptr too the anim

worn granite Aug 11, 2018, 8:13 PM

Call it within the EventGraph, and cache the data.

pallid compass Aug 11, 2018, 8:22 PM

Well you want a UMG widget that can display info you feed too it

Then you want some sort of system or interface

#

That can feed it info

and receive info back

for things like "text display" "next button clicked"

etc

Hi, my team and I (https://www.notyet.eu) while working on our upcoming game Warriorb (http://www.warriorb.com) has developed yet another Dialogue plugin, because

pallid compass Aug 11, 2018, 8:25 PM

most people prob make there own system's

#

its pretty simple

#

its just data driven display

meager bough Aug 11, 2018, 8:30 PM

i dont think its simple at all, if you want to have a flexible system and an efficient way of actually defining the dialogs

#

Define flexible

meager bough Aug 11, 2018, 8:48 PM

#

hm, i haven't thought it all through in advance. but in an rpg there's lots of things you might wanna do, like dynamically changing the dialog based on your reupation or if you have some specific item or whatever. also need to sort of show the dialog related to multiple quests at the same time, like when you have multiple quests that involve the same npc

Well what I've learned with tutorials is after you learn the fundamentals you can start to look up more general tips or fairly specific tutorials isntead of viewing the basics again

Like watching a top 20 tips and tricks for unreal isn't that valuable for a beginner, but when you've been using the engine for some time you might be like "oh crap that's cool that you can do that specific thing to speed up your workflow"

brave lark Aug 12, 2018, 6:46 AM

not even sure where to ask this question, but basically I am playing with procedural grass in both the foliage tool and the grass tool in landscape material. So I have this dynamic reactive grass system that uses foliage blueprint or files ( not sure how to refer to them, they are green icons ) and I can hand paint terrain using the foliage tool to put these in place. However I have a massive landscape and that is a lot of work. I can use the landscape material grass tool to place the static meshes and they look great, but they won't be reactive because it's just the mesh and not the foliage blueprint file. Does the grass tool not accept foliage components? That seems rather odd to me that it wouldn't. Would the best approach be to override the tool to accept the foliage components or is there an approach that is similar using the landscape material layers? I have painted where the grass should go and I just want my foliage components to be place procedurally there. Advice?

Hey, I am a problem with the engine, I am new and going through this tutorial:
https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-us/Programming/Tutorials/FirstPersonShooter/1/3
And when I try to type "GEngine" I get an error that it is undefined..
I saw that there is a known bug in the current version where it didn't include the project files, and I fixed it (included it manually) but it didn't solve the problem..
Any one have any idea what can cause it?

#

Also, I have an error at "GENERATED_BODY()" that reads:
"Browsing operations around this macro may fail. Consider adding it to a hint file"

@whole turtle it could be a serverside issue in which case you would need to try again, or if you tried to enter the password too many times, there may be a timeout in which case you might need to wait until the timeout elapses for password entry.

i only use launcher for marketplace stuff i buy mostly, that and engine installs if i need to test something quickly

whole turtle Aug 12, 2018, 10:50 AM

#

but for instance how can you create a new project and configure its creation settings without the launcher?

plush yew Aug 12, 2018, 10:51 AM

#

although i will say i did use the Launcher -> Learn - > Content examples to browse through the incredible niagara stuff in 4.20. if you havent looked at that it's amazing.

#

just go to the install folder where you installed the engine from the launcher last, open the UE4editor binary, create / load projects.

#

defaults to c:\program files\epic games

whole turtle Aug 12, 2018, 10:52 AM

#

hah nice! will create shortcuts for all of those

#

and if it wasn't for plugins and updates I would uninstall th damned launcher..I'm a bit tired of these login issues -.-

plush yew Aug 12, 2018, 10:54 AM

#

C:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_4.20\Engine\Binaries\Win64\UE4Editor.exe is the exact path for 4.20 installed to C (might want to double check the UE_4.20 part but should be the same)

#

i've grown used to the launcher by now. sort of like an addon or something in gradius (the old space 2d scroller game) lol. it is around you and you just have it there for good measure 😃

#

dude i loved gradius. i should remake that lol

#

😛

whole turtle Aug 12, 2018, 10:57 AM

#

I mean, I do think the launcher is a great solution specially, for the updates, the store, news pages, etc..

#

but damn having login issues every other day is quite anoying xD

Hello guys what do you recommend for a good character modelling tutorial?
I have 3ds Max, Maya and Blender.

plush yew Aug 12, 2018, 10:58 AM

#

@crystal lotus do the chars have to be realistic? like modelled in a 3d app then imported into those tools? or low poly?

whole turtle Aug 12, 2018, 11:00 AM

#

@crystal lotus What do you need exactly? do you want to get into 3D character art for real, or just need some characters for a project?

#

if it's the first, I'd advise getting into live drawing, anatomy etc while getting into zbrush and digital sculpture

#

if it the other option

#

I'd advise getting into blender and installing this addon:

#

http://www.manuelbastioni.com/

Manuel Bastioni laboratory: open source 3d software, 3d human mode...

Manuel Bastioni official page. Development of ManuelbastioniLAB, the free and open source character editor for Blender

#

it's a really neat character generator

plush yew Aug 12, 2018, 11:02 AM

#

yeah, and make sure if going first route - retopologize your meshes in a retopo program (Zbrush can do it but takes a lot of time, so u can use 3dcoat as well) and then skin your stuff in 3ds max. you can then rig it for anim.

whole turtle Aug 12, 2018, 11:02 AM

#

for both more realistic or stylized options and rigged

plush yew Aug 12, 2018, 11:02 AM

#

also, if you want to buy meshes you can get them from turbosquid too. or google sketchup warehouse.

whole turtle Aug 12, 2018, 11:04 AM

#

yeah I didn't refer to retopo, uv etc, bc that's easy, it's only a matter of learning to use the tools, the design, anatomy, etc and craft itself is way more important

plush yew Aug 12, 2018, 11:04 AM

#

George Maestri did a wonderful tut on charcter rigging in lynda by the way. so that's useful. as far as other tuts, check outQuick Start to Modeling in 3ds Max by Kinney on pluralsight @crystal lotus

whole turtle Aug 12, 2018, 11:04 AM

#

uv and retopo will end up being automatic either way xD

plush yew Aug 12, 2018, 11:04 AM

#

yeah i hate retopoing stuff. lol. havent done it in ages. like it was fun the first time i tried in 3dcoat as a test but it got a little tedious fast

#

none of meshes in my game are characers, so thankfully i have no anim data or any skinning / rigging to worry about. they are space ships haha. 😃

whole turtle Aug 12, 2018, 11:05 AM

#

hehe

#

well I'm an environment artist, so yeah, only a few props need animations from times to times so yeah

plush yew Aug 12, 2018, 11:07 AM

#

ah

#

i was doing env stuff for a little while

crystal lotus Aug 12, 2018, 11:09 AM

#

It doesn't have to be realistic this is for a RPG I'm making

whole turtle Aug 12, 2018, 11:10 AM

#

then checkout the blender addon I've linked above

#

generate a character, tweak the settings to what you need

#

and use that as a basis

I never used maya but from my experience blender is similar to nothing, and it's annoying

#

Good tool though

shy silo Aug 12, 2018, 3:17 PM

Ok. I’ve heard you can go from blender to maya and was wondering if the other direction reAlly worked at all.

heavy falcon Aug 12, 2018, 3:18 PM

It might take a couple of hours to adapt to blender, but sure, I think you can learn any tool. I encourage you to just try it out, can't hurt since it's free 😃

tall pendant Aug 12, 2018, 3:20 PM

#

Blender and Maya are quite different tools. I had to check out Blender for a Job application (being a maya user since Maya v6). I'm glad i didn't took the job in the end 😄

Blender is a good tool. But i'm just to used to Maya.

is there any way to use a dance pad has a d-pad? tried using different inputs but nothing works. the dance pad works since i can use it in stepmania.

balmy cypress Aug 12, 2018, 5:31 PM

#

There certainly is, but how to do it depends on how the dance bad sends in the input + any adapters that alter that input on the way to the computer

pallid ruin Aug 12, 2018, 5:32 PM

#

its a usb input. Any way i can check how it sends?

balmy cypress Aug 12, 2018, 5:33 PM

If it's usb I would assume it would be identified as a gamepad, what OS are you currently on

pallid ruin Aug 12, 2018, 5:33 PM

windows 10

Should level build data be excluded from source control?

grim ore Aug 12, 2018, 5:34 PM

#

@tawdry raptor what options do you have available to you in the details panel?

balmy cypress Aug 12, 2018, 5:35 PM

#

Try going into your windows device settings and look at the details for the dance pad, if it is a gamepad it will have a configuration menu and you can figure out which pad button is mapped to which gamepad input, if thats the case then all you do is have to map your input in UE4 settings

pallid ruin Aug 12, 2018, 5:38 PM

#

Well i went to the pad properties and i tap down and the input shows down. but in UE4 doesn't work.

balmy cypress Aug 12, 2018, 5:38 PM

#

Did you map any input to gamepad down"?

pallid ruin Aug 12, 2018, 5:39 PM

#

should work with the default ThirdPersonCharacter, right?

balmy cypress Aug 12, 2018, 5:39 PM

#

it will work with whatever you map it to

pallid ruin Aug 12, 2018, 5:39 PM

yeah i put the Gamepad D-Pad in the input settings

like it's not recognizing the pad

There aren't many nodes needed to get save to work, create the game save object and then saving it to a slot, however the save game has a boolean return you can check to see if it is indeed failing or not

it certainly is possible, but it would only work a few times before someone reported it. Also since these would most likely affect development systems a lot of them will have source control so formatting the system and just pulling the source would be a solution for the most part

yes

#

its just a level, just like a game, except you dont have a pawn really, you just interact with the hud

#

then when you do start the actual gameplay you load your specific level and spawn the pawns for the player and give it control

I put this in graphics but it might be more of a general question: Hey guys I have a question on game dev business ethics. Say I want to hire an asset creator or any other artist because their style is what I'm looking for. Is it appropriate to show them concept art/assets made by other artists that I have found that have the content I'm looking for to express what I want made? Not an exact replica obviously but say if I want a farmhouse or a bunch of wilderness props made. Is it wrong to send them to say like my pinterest page so they can see exactly what I'm talking about or do I have to hire a concept artist first?

grim ore Aug 12, 2018, 9:50 PM

#

so your asking can I ask an artist to do art in a style of X without showing them X?

#

no wait I misunderstood. You already like the style of X but you want it to look like something else design wise that someone else did. Doesn't seem like an issue as most of the time when you do a mockup you just use other existing things or describe it in some way. like "I want an RTS that has 3 sides like warcraft 3" or "the guns should be all mechanical looking like in borderlands". If you mean more of "That exact building in that exact game I want you to duplicate" you might have an issue. if you mean "That exact building in that exact game is something I like, can you do something like it in your style" is probably fine.

#

another way to think of it is you can only make a toaster so many ways, your gonna have to draw inspiration for it from some basic place and then put your spin on it

plush yew Aug 12, 2018, 9:55 PM

#

lol yeah, internally there's no derivative use or copyright law unless it spills into the final and happens to be extremely derivative 😃

#

you can probably go from reference images -> concept sketches -> rough base meshes -> refined meshes with textures / retopo / final product if you're doing a 3d asset with detail. i was very familiar with this pipeline when i did my mocap stuff from concept to rigging.

#

so it's basically kinda like how lawyers and their clients have special priviledge. you can say whatever you want to your peeps, but the final should still abide by copyright law.

grim ore Aug 12, 2018, 9:58 PM

#

yep and since you are asking about the need for a concept artist is sounds like you already have concept art to draw from 😛

dire storm Aug 12, 2018, 10:04 PM

#

Thanks guys. There's so much amazing artwork and assets already out there it seems silly to try to recreate the wheel. It just kinda weirds me out asking someone to make something similiar to someone else's work without giving them credit if you get what I'm saying. Like I don't want this guy's low poly tree but I want something similiar to it with X many triangles or whatever.

It would be dependent on the live link plugin to set that part up, since it's bypassing the usual rules.

Per the instructions here: https://answers.unrealengine.com/questions/572865/how-to-stop-epic-launcher-auto-starting-steamvr.html?sort=oldest I edited the plugin file to change true to false (last suggestion) this seemed to work until I next used Steam. I hadn't used steam for a couple days and it was fine, however, after playing a game on there and opening the engine up again, steamVR was popping up again. I just went back to check the plugin file and it had been changed from False to True again.

how can I add a line break to a string?

#

my webUI is returning a string value which has 3 lines and I need to compare against it

#

so I need a string var which also has 3 lines

#

well, the string type can store data with a linebreak but apparently you cant input one which is lame

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 5:22 AM

#

Shift+Enter? \n?

dim arch Aug 13, 2018, 5:22 AM

#

neither of those work for inputting

#

I also tried copying and pasting text with linebreaks from a text editor, but it reformats it

#

you can add linebreaks to append and format text nodes in the editor

#

but not in the variable default

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 5:26 AM

#

did you declare it from C++ ?

dim arch Aug 13, 2018, 5:26 AM

#

nope

#

well kinda

#

its a HTML/JSON plugin

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 5:27 AM

#

So.... the plugin declared it in C++?

dim arch Aug 13, 2018, 5:27 AM

#

yep

the fucking

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 5:27 AM

yup

format text node

#

uses { } to declare types

#

except that is the fucking

#

string I want to parse

#

-___-

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 5:27 AM

#

ok, there's a metadata tag which they didn't use called multiline.

#

so just use \n and if that doesn't cause a line break during runtime, then you can whine at the plugin author.

dim arch Aug 13, 2018, 5:29 AM

#

I dont think\n creates a newline in a string variable

worn blade Aug 13, 2018, 5:29 AM

Would anyone know of a decent tutorial for rigging a model for ue4 ?

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 5:29 AM

#

\n is the literal encoding for a newline in C++ string literals.

If you've tried it, that's fair. But go on and give it a shot if you've not tried it.

I am trying to compare the json string

the only way I've found to create a new line is by using append to build a string

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 5:31 AM

#

ok cool

dim arch Aug 13, 2018, 5:31 AM

but even then it returns false on IsEqual

there is probably a different whitepsace character being used

to create the new line

but I have nfi what it is

#

unless I use a hex editor or some shit and even then idk how to get it into ue4

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 5:33 AM

yeah it might be that the other platform uses a literal \n but you use \r\n. Or vice versa.

#

Good ol CRLF

worn blade Aug 13, 2018, 5:33 AM

Thanks tho

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 5:33 AM

best parse the json

dim arch Aug 13, 2018, 5:33 AM

#

yeah

#

probably the only way to do it now

#

the plugin actually has a Json to bool node

#

except

#

the Json is returning

#

{
"name":"value"
}

#

I think it needs to return {
"name":value
}

#

so some bug in the plug I think

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 5:34 AM

eh

#

when I say parse the json

I mean, like, you know the structure you're working with

SO like

pull the values out.

Compare for equality.

You purchased a plugin to handle JSON

And it provides NOTHING to you, in terms of parsing JSON?

There's such little benefit, you've got to resort to string functions?

Get...

dim arch Aug 13, 2018, 5:42 AM

#

the input is the json value

#

it parses it and returns an unreal bool value

#

except it just returns false 100% of the time

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 5:43 AM

#

This plugin isn't very noob friendly.

dim arch Aug 13, 2018, 5:43 AM

#

because the json formatting is fucked

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 5:43 AM

#

Ok so what you've got - most likely - is a JSON object.

#

You can't directly get a boolean from that.

dim arch Aug 13, 2018, 5:43 AM

#

nope

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 5:43 AM

#

What you need to do is find a field in the JSON object

dim arch Aug 13, 2018, 5:43 AM

#

I have tried the object ref and the data inside it

plush yew Aug 13, 2018, 5:43 AM

#

@tawdry wyvern you have to direct message Unrealbot for posting, the guide is in the channel pin.

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 5:43 AM

#

JSON fields can be arrays, objects, or primitive types (bool, float, int, etc)

#

This plugin expects you to grab a field from some JSON ... thing .... and then call GetBoolean on it.

dim arch Aug 13, 2018, 5:44 AM

#

im not sure man, I did some debugging via printstring

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 5:44 AM

#

If its not a boolean field, it'll be false.

dim arch Aug 13, 2018, 5:45 AM

#

I can get the object reference (as a string) or the value (as a string)

plush yew Aug 13, 2018, 5:45 AM

#

Toku, you get source control up and running? 😃

dim arch Aug 13, 2018, 5:45 AM

#

thing is the plugin passess

{
"name":"value"
}

#

for a boolean json string

#

the boolean value shouldnt have " "

upper quartz Aug 13, 2018, 6:15 AM

#

hi guys.

plush yew Aug 13, 2018, 6:15 AM

#

@ancient sandal yes, you use source control and "check out" assets to prevent modification on other machines that are connected to the same cloud repo

upper quartz Aug 13, 2018, 6:16 AM

#

how can i scroll the slider and clickable the button inside the slider

ancient sandal Aug 13, 2018, 6:17 AM

#

@plush yew Thanks, what do you do if both of you need to edit the same asset? say, modifying a blueprint

plush yew Aug 13, 2018, 6:19 AM

#

person a checks out the asset, modifies it, and checks in back in. then person b can access the same file if he wants to check it out in the same way. so check out downloads a copy to your machine so you can edit it, it locks it on the repo.

ancient sandal Aug 13, 2018, 6:21 AM

#

Oh cool, thanks!

plush yew Aug 13, 2018, 6:22 AM

#

yep if you check out #source-control there's some good stuff on there including .gitignore file examples if you want to get your repo started.

#

i really recommend experimenting with git / a visual UI first and starting a local repo so you can avoid cloud server costs unless you have your own server. then once you're either in a team or doing some kind of collab work, you can go cloud based repo

#

i actually just got into source control myself and it's really useful, didn't use it last year. and this year i had to roll back my edits once and it saved me a lot of time.

#

started only a few months ago and it's great.

#

@ancient sandal you want me to DM you a stepwise guide on my process for it?

Get/SetWorldRotation of a component works as expected(you set the value and the component gets tha rotation and stays static) but AddWorlRotation makes the component to spin...If that a bug or on purpose? If there another way to add a delta to the static rotation of a component?

paper kernel Aug 13, 2018, 11:33 AM

as the name implies, it adds to current rotation

you can call it once to add delta rotation

but for smooth transitions you need to do the delta math and use SetRotation

You could do some reaaaaally weird stuff using vector 2d's as those have convenience helpers already but man that would be weird. basically convert to v2d, do some stuff, then convert back lol

I mean this display that shows which level the elevator is currently on

grim ore Aug 13, 2018, 9:20 PM

any display of numbers is probably a material, you can do that pretty easily.

since its using world space, probably line traces, you can just have physical items in the world representing the buttons and take action on them

I don't think there is a channel for this so asking here for now: Does anyone have any recommendations for a Continuous Integration environment with Unreal (probably on a remote server). I've setup Jenkins and Bamboo before with Unity so I'm familiar with the process, just looking to see if anyone had a good, cost effective solution that they would recommend (currently thinking of hosting an TeamCity server on AWS which then spins up an Unreal Instance to build the game and copy output to S3).

native kite Aug 13, 2018, 9:22 PM

#

nice to know that, thanks @grim ore

livid haven Aug 13, 2018, 9:45 PM

#

@gritty matrix It's fine to ask here, but #source-control could also work. They're related technologies at least.

#

Whatever you use, you'll likely end up piping things into Unreal Automation Tool

#

UAT is the C# based automation system for UE4. Scripts tends to invoke UE4 and pass commandline args to get things done.

gritty matrix Aug 13, 2018, 9:47 PM

#

@livid haven Thanks for the advice! I'll probably start by setting something up locally then and experiment with UAT.

livid haven Aug 13, 2018, 9:48 PM

#

👍 UAT makes it easy to get a build made and cooked and even potentially run some tests.

#

You'll just want to use whatever CI/automation system to invoke UAT and run one of the existing set of C# scripts, like BuildCookRun, or even write your own.

gritty matrix Aug 13, 2018, 9:54 PM

#

Having a quick read now and it does seem like a nice solution. Now to figure out where to actually make the builds. AWS instances are one solution but those things can rack up the cost pretty quickly. I might be better off setting up a machine internally.

livid haven Aug 13, 2018, 10:16 PM

I'd definitely mess with a VM or something first before you start spending money.

IIRC console key binding (`) and console commands are stripped from game when packaged for shipping right?

worn granite Aug 13, 2018, 10:34 PM

#

by default I think, yeah

robust shadow Aug 13, 2018, 10:35 PM

#

so if I make my own console using UMG and add-in some custom commands speicific to my game, and parse them through the command executor, would this [unintentionally] provide access to dev console commands

#

are like once shipped are they truely stripped like those commands wont register or call anything anymore? o.o

#

basically wanting to add my own console commands to get/set game specific variables as well as spinning up a listen server from the ingame console

#

but without leaking access to all the dev commands

#

or is it really that bad to just include the ue4 console in shipped game? not sure what epic has all exposes via the console but when comparing to source engine they typically allow players to access the console

hazy lynx Aug 13, 2018, 10:45 PM

So I'm trying to learn a little more nitty gritty about blueprints. I have some of the basics down. For some reason I'm forgetting exactly what the construction script can be used for in a standard blueprint. Is it just for "constructing" the object once its placed in the world?

#

I was reading through the official documentation and the page has like 3 lines on construction script in BPs. Basically "this is the construction script area" lul

robust shadow Aug 13, 2018, 10:57 PM

#

@dire storm do you know much about object oriented programming? if so from my understanding, the construct node is just a way to access the class constructor from blueprints

dire storm Aug 13, 2018, 10:58 PM

#

oh

#

why didn't they just say so

robust shadow Aug 13, 2018, 10:59 PM

#

hell I may be completly wrong but i just always assumed it was the constructor

#

from my understanding, construct node gets called when the object is created, and BeginPlay event gets called when the object is loaded into your scene

#

They are rumored not to announce anything else until the Nvidia event in EU from what youtube tells me. All the big releases being leaked about it at on Aug 20th.

#

but they are pushing back release dates because all partners are overstocked on 1080s from bitmining collapse

#

and they don't wanna lower prices on the existing 1080s too much

dire storm Aug 13, 2018, 11:48 PM

as soon as anyone officially opens their mouth at nvidia about the new cards (despite tons of leaked info) the GTX sales are going to plummet in an already saturated market. Theres alot of people trying to offload used GTX series with nobody buying 2 year old tech at high market prices already.

It's tone deaf market research.

That's ridiculous. They're not going to change the name of their most iconic car because of one incident.

dire storm Aug 14, 2018, 12:04 AM

#

I mean if it was named "The Porsche ISIS model" then you got an argument

high stone Aug 14, 2018, 12:05 AM

#

That's the other problem. Naming a car after emergency services. For marketing you should aim products at what the average consumer thinks. You can aim for the risky stuff. But that has consequences attached. Like the Nova Car. Which in Spanish means no go.

Red man the Porsche 911 is a very well established model number for Porsche. There is no way they are changing it.

maiden swift Aug 14, 2018, 12:06 AM

#

I get your point: I just haven't seen evidence that supports your claim.

dire storm Aug 14, 2018, 12:07 AM

#

if you start changing model numbers you are letting the terrorists win

grim ore Aug 14, 2018, 12:07 AM

#

In 1968, the number was agreed upon. AT&T chose the number 9-1-1, which was simple, easy to remember

#

The 911 traces its roots to sketches drawn by Ferdinand "Butzi" Porsche in 1959.[8] The Porsche 911 was developed as a more powerful, larger and a more comfortable replacement for the Porsche 356, the company's first model. The new car made its public debut at the 1963[

I know. I'm just saying for products on the mass market. You probably don't want to name a car after Emergency services, 9/11. Sure you came before both of them. But good luck convincing the average consumer.

dire storm Aug 14, 2018, 12:08 AM

#

Just be happy you weren't born on 9-11. Thats the real bummer

Be stubborn to the consumers at your own profit loss.

did you even look up any history before you started spouting this crap?

#

I have lived through the Pinto. You can't ever, ever name another car that name.

worn granite Aug 14, 2018, 12:08 AM

#

I don't recall a massive outcry to rename the car.

tall pendant Aug 14, 2018, 12:08 AM

I doubt Porsche is loosing money because of the number "911" tho

ugh PC culture man.

maiden swift Aug 14, 2018, 12:09 AM

#

Again, find evidence to support the claim. I suggest we move on regardless. 🙂

worn granite Aug 14, 2018, 12:09 AM

#

they could have jumped on it right afterwards for a PR boost, eg car manufacturer renames car to honor tradgedy in US

dire storm Aug 14, 2018, 12:09 AM

#

I missed one of the slides on the powerpoint. Thanks chat

worn granite Aug 14, 2018, 12:10 AM

#

or w/e

#

pointless to do it so far afterwards.

dire storm Aug 14, 2018, 12:11 AM

#

Or just keep the 911 but donate profits to 911 foundations for the next release of the model in honor of the tragedy. Either would have been a good PR move. Put a bunch of Murica stuff on it ya know

high stone Aug 14, 2018, 12:11 AM

(I almost lost a classmate to 9/11 BTW. I know how badly some people in the USA still feel about that event.)

I liked it but... the bloom through me way off... like wouldn't the whole dog super bright reflection if you have such a bloom coming off it from the shadow?

#

This just in. Star Citizen will require RTX Nvidia cards when game goes live in 2035

maiden swift Aug 14, 2018, 12:16 AM

If I could count the number of times Jensen says "It turns out..." and "For the very first time"...

#

Well, that would be a waste of time. What a weird sentence.

#

lol

#

I just mean it makes me chuckle how often he says those things.

my 5960x was $1000 but the new 32 core amd will be $1700 or so, must buy nicest stuff. X_X

#

i am gonna wait until 1-2 yrs before the new upgrade cycle i think

#

the 2990wx might come down in price

can somebody please help me figure out why my ncloth flag isn't dropping fully

📎 flagpainted.png

#

📎 flagsimulating.png

#

it gets stuck in that position

#

everything is at default settings for the cloth settings

#

📎 blenderflag.png

#

and here is how i made it in blender, by subdividing a plane...

sonic pagoda Aug 14, 2018, 1:36 AM

#

and when i say stuck i mean it will bend and simulate cloth but thats the final position it gets to

#

ive tried scaling it down in blender since its huge in ue4 but that didnt change anything

west pendant Aug 14, 2018, 2:28 AM

#

Hi there. I also have cloth issues. 😄 And I'm not really sure where to ask this question.

#

When I put cloth onto my skeletal mesh in UE4.20 the cloth makes the character's Approx Size jump from 700x4,300x1,300 to the insane dimensions of 25,000x202,000x82,000 😬 Which doesn't seem right at all and is causing issues. Is there anything I can do about this?

#

Or is it a 4.20 bug? Maybe I'm searching wrong, but Google isn't bringing up anything for me.

winged crypt Aug 14, 2018, 2:40 AM

📎 unknown.png

#

Anyone know what this refers to?

sonic pagoda Aug 14, 2018, 3:33 AM

#

@west pendant when you say you put cloth did you just simply attach cloth to a characters sk mesh?

#

@winged crypt are you using a minimap?

west pendant Aug 14, 2018, 3:37 AM

#

@sonic pagoda To be more specific I first created clothing data from a section, then applied it. I tried scaling my model down a bit which seems to have helped, but I'm still getting a lot of extra dimensions added when clothing is active/applied.

winged crypt Aug 14, 2018, 3:38 AM

#

@sonic pagoda No

west pendant Aug 14, 2018, 3:41 AM

#

Also as for your issue @sonic pagoda maybe it is a constraints issue and you need to adjust those settings so it can go beyond whatever distance it's constrained to?

sonic pagoda Aug 14, 2018, 3:44 AM

#

@winged crypt well it says its creating a texture, probably on every frame... which sounds like a minimap being drawn but it could also be some UI element

#

or even something that you are driving by code to be updated every frame thats material/texture related.. or im completely off

#

@west pendant i see now that my dimensions are way big maybe thats my issue...

#

ill try it out tommorow

west pendant Aug 14, 2018, 3:59 AM

#

Best of luck, it seems pretty buggy 😬

dire storm Aug 14, 2018, 4:02 AM

#

Are there any downsides to making a ton of streaming levels? Say if I wanted to make each hex on a giant hex map its own level for instance.

plush yew Aug 14, 2018, 5:14 AM

#

can you make sound bounce of objects in ue4? Also, can you add speed of sound with that reflected sound?

winged crypt Aug 14, 2018, 5:24 AM

#

@plush yew I don't think so but you could spawn objects that carry sound with them, which themselves can bounce off other objects. With the right attenuation settings, you could achieve what you're trying to do. The speed is in your control.

#

P.S. making these objects invisible would create the illusion of traveling / bouncing sound.

plush yew Aug 14, 2018, 5:25 AM

#

That could be very processor heavy though... 🤔

winged crypt Aug 14, 2018, 5:25 AM

#

Not really, it depends on what your end-goal is

#

What are you creating?
