I try my luck here again about Unreal EULA and Dual Licenced GPL. Question is can I use dual licensed GPL lib with game developed in Unreal Engine ?

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:27 PM

#

No

#

Well, not in the GPL form anyway

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:28 PM

#

thats why I am saying it is dual licensed

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:29 PM

#

Well, if you have another license and you can use that license, it's fine. Just don't ever put the GPL licensed version in your game.

#

GPL is a viral license that would contaminate UE4 code. Even LGPL is not acceptable in a shipping game, if my understanding is correct.

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:30 PM

I think best simple example I can come with is that: I developed library and released in as GPL on github, years latter I decided to use this LIb in Unreal Engine game

I see nothing wrong with doing that

why is my nickname epic gamer

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:31 PM

#

you understanding is not correct, I can use LGPL as long it is statically linked.

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:31 PM

#

dynamically*

#

Static linkage would make your code LGPL too

#

Which is why it's problematic with UE4

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:32 PM

#

ups sorry you right dynamically 😃

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:32 PM

#

So you can use LGPL but not in game builds

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:33 PM

#

hmm

#

I can specify shared lib with config

#

and load it on game start

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:33 PM

#

Might be possible, though I haven't tried it

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:35 PM

#

in my perspective as long as I include GPL Licences exemption in unreal engine game I should be fine

#

I wish some from Epic confirmed that 😃

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:36 PM

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:36 PM

#

It's not really complicated tbh. GPL = not possible in any way. LGPL = possible if a user can modify the LGPL library by himself to use his own patched version.

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:37 PM

#

dude I am asking about DUAL licensing Library

#

Not about how GPL works

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:37 PM

#

If the library is GPL but you're the dev, then it's not GPL, it's whatever you want it to be.

#

Dude.

manic pawn Oct 22, 2018, 1:37 PM

#

what library is this even about

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:37 PM

#

thank you 😃

#

Same will apply when I have permission from GPL author to use it in Unreal Engine

#

only thing would require me to do is include file in library that states such exemption

manic pawn Oct 22, 2018, 1:39 PM

#

it's more complicated than that

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:40 PM

#

this should stratify EPIC and Unreal EULA

manic pawn Oct 22, 2018, 1:40 PM

#

the author could just claim he never gave you an excemption

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:40 PM

#

If you're not the author then you need the author to give you the library under a different license

frank escarp Oct 22, 2018, 1:41 PM

#

GPL is designed to be viral

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:41 PM

#

well this is same they give me exemption from GPL under unreal licenses

frank escarp Oct 22, 2018, 1:41 PM

#

thus its shittyness

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:41 PM

#

here we go 😃

frank escarp Oct 22, 2018, 1:41 PM

#

Blender is GPL

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:41 PM

#

@west quarry Licenses are contracts.

frank escarp Oct 22, 2018, 1:41 PM

#

it does help, becouse after all blender is a program, not a library

#

but blender being GPL basically nukes closed source third party plugins

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:42 PM

#

@frank escarp you can request exemption from Blender to use third party

#

this is all normal people use in commercial project GPL, just pay money to authors of GPL

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:43 PM

#

Complying with an OSS license isn't about putting files next to your executable, it's about complying with the contract you enter in by using the software. Your arrangement with the OSS author needs to feature a different license text, that may or may not force you to tell the user about it.

#

Ask the developer, get a license text that isn't GPL, read what it says and do it

#

@west quarry The two dangers you face are
A) license that forces you to do stuff you can't do like releasing UE4 source code
B) author suing you for your entire life worth because you didn't respect the license

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:45 PM

#

with non fall under my category

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:45 PM

#

I wish you were more specific about your situation here because it's hard to be more accurate with little context

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:47 PM

#

Authors have no issue with me to use under Unreal Engine a theirs library that is GPL. All this requires on my end as example just add License Examption.txt that I have such permission from authors.

#

I am sure this ok for github

#

99.99% sure about that

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:48 PM

#

Then follow on the terms provided in that text file

#

Which should be legally clear

#

Like I said, licenses are contracts. Follow the contract you signed, whatever it says, as long as it doesn't prevent you from complying with the contract you have with Epic Games.

#

If you don't have a written contract that tells you what you can do, then don't use it

#

If the contratc tells you to copy the file somewhere, do it, else not

#

To be clear, only the author can sue you

#

Unless he's letting third parties do it on his behalf

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:51 PM

#

I am not worry about authors

#

I want to make sure I am clear with Epic

#

thats all

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:52 PM

#

Then look at the new license you were given by the author

#

There has to be one

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:52 PM

#

nope no need that what I am trying to tell you

#

since licence become Unreal EULA granted to me only

#

every one else is under GPL Licences for that library

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:53 PM

#

The situation of other people is 100% irrelevant

#

What matters is your legal agreement with the author

#

If you have a written, signed agreement binding both parties, and the other party did not ask for anything in particular, then you are fine

#

Like I said, just follow through on the terms the author gave you

#

No terms, great, do what you want

#

You don't need to put any file anywhere either

#

Unless the agreement you signed says you need to

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

yes you absolutly have to do it

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

Does the agreement you signed explicitely says so ?

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

because other wise someone will think you are breaking GPL and Unreal EULA

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:56 PM

#

Why does it matter what people think ?

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:56 PM

#

with will be waste of time for everyone involved

#

will I have case pointing out such thing on github in past

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:56 PM

#

The Unreal EULA is only at risk if you use GPL code, you don't

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 1:57 PM

#

it is GPL library with Exemption

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 1:57 PM

#

If you are exempted it's not GPL anymore

#

Your problem is that you should really ask for an updated license file

#

"the author exempted me" is not a license

#

GPL is also not the license anymore

#

You simply don't have a license anymore, which is a legally dangerous position

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 2:00 PM

#

well author exempted me to use this GPL library in Unreal

#

what else you need to say

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:00 PM

#

Full legal text of what the author is okay and not okay with

#

aka a license

#

"exempted from GPL" means there is no license

#

You have permission, great, you don't risk anything - but a one-liner license file would be much more serious

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 2:02 PM

#

I did not think how much info I need to put there

#

I don't see that is critical as you do

#

it is just common sense

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:03 PM

#

Look, I'll make it simple : do everything the author demands

#

That's it

#

If the author doesn't demand anything and frees you from the entire license, then great

#

You're done

#

Zero step required

#

No file needed

#

If the FSF or a similar OSS nonprofit happens to reverse your game to check for OSS sources, which won't happen, send them the written agreement with the author

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 2:05 PM

#

Unreal EULA simple does not allows change Licensed Technology
GPL requires you to release all code under GPL
Exemption from GPL satisfies Unreal EULA

#

thats it

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:06 PM

#

More like :

Unreal EULA is incompatible with GPL
Your distribution of the library is not GPL

#

That's really as simple as that

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 2:06 PM

#

Unreal EULA is incompatible with GPL, because it requires you to change Licensed Technology Agreement to GPL

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:07 PM

#

The EULA specifically says no GPL, so it's even simpler than that

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 2:08 PM

#

I am talking about reason why it no

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:08 PM

#

"Code or content under the following licenses, for example, are prohibited: GNU General Public License (GPL)"

#

Doesn't need to be a reason

#

It's in the contract

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 2:08 PM

#

and couple lines above that it is explanation why it is prohibited 😃

#

hehe

#

it actually starts with a reason why it is prohibited.

#

another interesting question is about General Restrictions, my understanding it is only operations are specified and restricted, but development is allowed - correct ?

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:14 PM

#

Everything that's specifically listed is restricted

#

Anything else is allowed

#

Provided it's not restricted in another point

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 2:15 PM

#

it is not specified development only operations

#

(2) for operation of nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation, aircraft communication systems or air traffic control machines, or for military use in connection with live combat;

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:16 PM

#

Then it's only for operations

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 2:16 PM

#

so I can develop skynet ?

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:17 PM

#

You can develop anything, as long as your UE4 product never ends up used as part of operating "nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation, aircraft communication systems or air traffic control machines, or for military use in connection with live combat"

#

Obviously if you're developing a nuclear plant control software with UE4, it means you can never use it

manic pawn Oct 22, 2018, 2:23 PM

those are some oddly specific restrictions

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:27 PM

#

@desert bronze It's not about that really, it's just that aircraft control doesn't live in the same world as we do. Not a single file in UE4 would comply with aircraft regulations on software.

manic pawn Oct 22, 2018, 2:27 PM

#

a game where you run a nuclear plant but it doesn't tell you it's real

desert bronze Oct 22, 2018, 2:28 PM

#

@cloud cobalt Ohhh okay, makes sense

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:28 PM

#

Same goes for nuclear. People aren't even allowed writing code directly on stuff like that

#

It's all math models that generate code

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 2:29 PM

#

so you can use unreal to develop math models that generates code for nuclear power plant ?

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:29 PM

#

Sure !

#

I mean, Epic will be fine with that

#

Probably

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 2:30 PM

#

sure and probably

#

😃

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:30 PM

#

Your local nuclear regulation authority will probably disagree

#

They'll say things like "gross incompetence"

#

Seriously, commercial aircraft & nuclear are the two craziest fields on security. Even spacecraft is less so, and spacecraft code is changed line per line with vigorous inspection and paper trail

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 2:32 PM

#

we not talking about that

#

about general restrictions

#

you actually might be right, you can develop using unreal engine math models that generate code heh

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:33 PM

#

To be clear I would not using anything like game tech to handle nuclear design

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 2:33 PM

and you code in unreal engine ?

The closest I would go with UE4 would be stuff like virtual inspection of the plant design

#

That would definitely be okay with Epic

#

And not too crazy

west quarry Oct 22, 2018, 2:34 PM

#

I am not sure about even that

since it is kind of operation of a plant

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:34 PM

CPU

sour bough Oct 22, 2018, 2:35 PM

#

merci 😃

#

so really GPU is used only on "play time"

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:37 PM

#

GPU is used for rendering, mostly. It can also be used as a processing unit for some features of the editor

#

The prototype GPU Lightmass uses the GPU for example

the "prototype" ? a new one ?

sour bough Oct 22, 2018, 2:39 PM

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:39 PM

jk, I think it was updated with early UDK, so more like 2010

sour bough Oct 22, 2018, 2:39 PM

so I may better buy good GPU than thinking about network CPU rendering

#

I don't believe shader compiling can be networked anyway

cloud cobalt Oct 22, 2018, 2:41 PM

No reason it can't

?

#

if visible is false then it is hidden

torn herald Oct 22, 2018, 4:03 PM

#

I don't think it is that obviously named. Visible only applies to in editor, while hidden in game means just in game. So changing visibility is more for your benefit in development.

yeah ok. thanks :--)

should just be named either indeed

Hi! I'm not sure what channel my help request fits in. It could be a #blueprint or a #legacy-physics problem. I'm trying to create a door similar to that of "Layers of Fear" or "Visage". I have the basics of opening and closing the door, but I would like the door to only move if the mouse is moved with a certain velocity. I'd also like the door to keep its relative velocity until constrained by the axis. Which channel does this belong to?

grim ore Oct 22, 2018, 6:00 PM

I dont even think UE 4.0 supported DX 8 or 9 so that would be out unless you write it yourself. You can force opengl if you want but even then If its running 8 or 9 the opengl might be too old

Hey everybody, has anyone and idea what this could cause or seen this before?

Same Mesh. Landscape Spline Tool. In Unlit modes it looks fine.
So i guess some Light Issue?

my guess would be mesh normals and lighting

yeah mesh normals i guessed to. but reimport and regenerate everything, brought no difference.

#

other meshes are fine. well i check out everything again.

reef kayak Oct 22, 2018, 6:26 PM

#

Hey im not sure which channel i should use this one for , but my Unreal keeps crashing randomly, with that i mean totally randomly , building lighting, putting an object in the scene, assigning a texture to a material. it doesnt matter, every single action could make unreal crash and I have no clue whats causing it. Does anybody have any idea??

lethal wigeon Oct 22, 2018, 6:29 PM

#

Hey Cylion sorry to ask this, but are your PC requirments fit enough for ue? or the classic question, did you updated all drivers? is it all the with different version of ue4?

reef kayak Oct 22, 2018, 6:29 PM

#

ye i have a 1060 with 16 gigs of ram and a i7-8750

#

all drivers are updated

#

and no i havent really checked different versions of ue4 but thats not really a possibility as im working on a group project through source control

#

i do have this problem that unreal is only using my integrated graphics card and has no possibility to switch to my dedicated card. so i just disable the integrated card whenever i use unreal

lethal wigeon Oct 22, 2018, 6:35 PM

hm cause when you say random, i sounds to me like UE4 is upcoming to a limit and closes it self automaticly

cursive dirge Oct 22, 2018, 7:43 PM

Btw i can’t delete 4.18.3

grim ore Oct 22, 2018, 7:47 PM

your 4.18.3 is probably 4.20 and corrupted, nuke your computer and set your drives on fire to fix

or go into the folder where your engines are and delete the bad ones

so way do the foliage on the grass always have some issues on building light ?

gloomy apex Oct 22, 2018, 9:25 PM

#

I really hope someone here can shine a light on what is going on.
I am on UE 4.15 and I have a couple of blueprints, they are saved and they are working fine in the editor, as soon as I open another instance of the editor, or open another editor on another pc, trying to view the exact blueprints, same files and folder structure and everything, the editor crashesh, it crashesh on BP drag, it crashes on BP right click aslo

#

The reason I need this is because its Unreal Tournament Editor, and the blueprints are a toolset, that I am developing, so this happens by sharing the folder with .uassets

#

I am afraind to close the main instance of UE now, as I know once I do, i will practically lose the my entire work, only tangible option to restore is to rename the folder in Windows Explorer, then all references are ffed up and it takes hours to fix

plush yew Oct 22, 2018, 9:37 PM

#

Good luck with that. The UT4 Ed is old... 2016. I'd recommend you use UE4 instead and make your own FPS game. Invest your time wisely.

gloomy apex Oct 22, 2018, 9:40 PM

#

Yeah, the point isnt that, I created a HeatMap for UT4, and the data from matches is visible inside UT editor

plush yew Oct 22, 2018, 9:55 PM

#

Im just trying to highlight that it is cool, but that feature will only be useful for an extreme minority on UT4. We dont even know if Epic is going to shut down UT like Paragon.

grim sinew Oct 22, 2018, 9:57 PM

#

UT4 isn’t shutting down, but it is dead. No updates for nearly a year now. It’s only alive since there no benefit to killing it.

plush yew Oct 22, 2018, 9:58 PM

#

And the modding is limited, plus it will be a pain to follow the new builds if the devs ever return.

#

Many of us UT contributors, modders, etc. moved to UE4.

#

Many others just dropped UT4 too for multiple reasons.

#

The game might be playable but it has many technical issues.

#

Network code, no skeletal hitbox for hitscan weapons, headshots with sniper rifle generally dont register, low performance, etc.

gloomy apex Oct 22, 2018, 10:09 PM

#

I might have fixed it, not sure yet, but it seems like a child of a bp was causing the above said efect, as I tried to spawn childs of the bp, from the bp, and while that works in the current editor, as soon as you restart it crashes

I don't know what I pressed! I was trying to save everything, and hit the hotkey accidentally.

south ridge Oct 23, 2018, 2:20 AM

#

It's something involving the left alt key IIRC

#

This cube doesn't do much and you can just re-open your map

#

It's not an actor or anything in the level

Google is absolutely useless

I can't find the hotkey anymore through it

I think it might've just been left alt

there's actually a place to specify an array of those meshes to do (but it doesn't remove that cube)

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 2:23 AM

#

I'm creating a perlin-noise based grid of AActor-derived tiles in my GameMode currently, they're not set to replicate yet...so the client doesn't see them at all.

Currently i'm looking into the best place for their generation, and how I want to replicate them..since they have variables that change over the course of the game and are constantly queried. Any suggestions?

@tawdry raptor assuming you're using the target point move to stuff, just open the door.

#

Do you literally want them to walk through the door? I think this is the wrong channel for that though.

wanton edge Oct 23, 2018, 2:32 AM

I think it's alt + f4 although not sure

dont do that

grim ore Oct 23, 2018, 2:33 AM

The mesh you are talking about is the "Preview Mesh", you get to it with the \ key (backslash) and you can change the meshes/hotkeys in the editor prefs

@grim ore Would really appreciate your input on my question if you have any

digital anchor Oct 23, 2018, 2:34 AM

#

@south ridge @atomic forge its \, in case you're wondering

grim ore Oct 23, 2018, 2:35 AM

#

I wouldn't have a good guess or I would 😦 game mode for sure is not the best due to it being server only, game state might be better but it would depend on how you want the clients to access the data

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 2:36 AM

#

Ah okay, was thinking Gamestate too

atomic forge Oct 23, 2018, 2:36 AM

#

Woah, thanks @digital anchor @grim ore !

grim ore Oct 23, 2018, 2:36 AM

#

there is nothing wrong with keeping them in the game mode on the server and having the clients ask for the info or the server sending them out as needed when updated?

#

but again it just depends on what you are doing

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 2:37 AM

#

The players would be querying the ground pretty constantly, so it's important that info is available to all clients and cached

grim ore Oct 23, 2018, 2:38 AM

#

yeah then probably the game or player state or a custom object to hold it

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 2:38 AM

#

But the tiles would never move, and change rarely

grim ore Oct 23, 2018, 2:38 AM

#

the states feel "weird" to hold data like that but in sorta makes sense

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 2:38 AM

#

I'm thinking a ActorComponent attached to the state

grim ore Oct 23, 2018, 2:39 AM

#

in the end it really doesn't matter as long as you make it do what you need lol. The *state and *mode stuff is just helpers and you don't need them for custom stuff like this

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 2:39 AM

#

I like the quick global access

#

My biggest thing is whether there's a better way to load the tiles initially, so that the clients can spawn them

#

Because the spawning is an intense process

#

I imagine it might quicken the process if there's a way to generate the grid on the server, but spawn the tiles on the client

#

But then track changes to the variables on the client

grim ore Oct 23, 2018, 2:44 AM

#

well I guess that depends on if the server is faster than the client as well

#

but I would assume you want it a certain way so yeah having the server generate is then propagate the data to the clients to do their thing might be the most consistent. but then again if you are using a fixed generation system you might be fine having everyone do the same steps as the server.

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 2:46 AM

#

Haven't been able to generate the same grid with the same seed yet

#

But good idea to look into

When UE4 launched it saw tons of teams getting together to make a game. Now it seems way harder to assemble a team. Did something change? 😅

icy bone Oct 23, 2018, 4:54 AM

hi guys anyone know how to make a variable to reference objects in the same bp?

plush yew Oct 23, 2018, 4:55 AM

#

Objects i think youre looking for areay

#

array*

icy bone Oct 23, 2018, 4:55 AM

#

say i make made a ComponentA, added to actor C, and I want to expose a variable from ComponentA that I can use to select ComponentB in same actor C

#

currently im using Tags cus i cant figure out a way... tags are slow cus they require lookups...

#

what I need is like a Late Binding object reference...

plush yew Oct 23, 2018, 5:22 AM

#

Maybe a basic question but I want a lot of text for my game, is there a way to compress this into just a few widgets? I don't want a separate widget for every line of text (which appear consecutively through the game).

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 6:12 AM

#

@icy bone Expose the variable from Actor C and set it on ComponentA during construction

#

@plush yew Use line breaks

plush yew Oct 23, 2018, 6:36 AM

#

Ok I will google that

#

Unless you just mean have lines listed below each other? That's not what I want, I want eg one message to display at time 0, then another at time 10, then another after an event etc, all in the same level

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 6:45 AM

#

@plush yew I think i need to know more about what you want to answer properly

#

But it seems like you just want a macro that displays a string in a defined Text, waits x seconds, then hides the widget

plush yew Oct 23, 2018, 6:46 AM

#

Yeah but multiple times, for different strings

#

Im pretty sure widgets won't affect my performance much though

#

It just feels clunky to have 2 dozen widgets

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 6:47 AM

#

yea not sure why you'd have 2 dozen widgets unless they all need to be formatted differently

#

Can you show me your hud

plush yew Oct 23, 2018, 6:52 AM

#

Do you mean this? Thanks for the help but I have a much bigger issue at the moment as I changed a variable and my main enemy has stopped working :p

📎 unknown.png

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 6:53 AM

#

No, the HUD that you want to display the messages in

#

You should use snipping tool btw

plush yew Oct 23, 2018, 6:55 AM

#

well here is one

#

Simple text box, would be nice to have multiple and display at different times

📎 unknown.png

#

Ill google snipping tool

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 6:57 AM

#

hit the windows key and type snip

#

Are you okay with the same formatting for the text on each display?

#

What do you want to change for each

plush yew Oct 23, 2018, 6:59 AM

#

Oh yeah formatting can be the same

#

Okay snipping tool is useful

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 6:59 AM

#

But it seems like you just want a macro that displays a string in a defined Text, waits x seconds, then hides the widget

plush yew Oct 23, 2018, 7:00 AM

#

okay so rather than create a new widget I can just set the text to variable, then access it via the level blueprint and set the text

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 7:00 AM

#

Create a macro in your WBP, pass in a string as a variable, then in the macro set the Text to your input string, set visibility for the Text to Visible, delay 8 seconds, set visibility to hidden

plush yew Oct 23, 2018, 7:00 AM

#

or something like that

#

thank you

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 7:02 AM

#

Do note macros aren't exposed to other classes. So the easy solution is creating a custom event that goes straight into the macro

#

Or don't use a macro at all if you want, your call. Depends how many times and where you're calling it

fierce plover Oct 23, 2018, 7:15 AM

Hey guys, I understand nobody likes to be bombarded with constant questions, but I'd like to know if anyone has any suggestions for where to start learning how to use UE4.

#

Ive been watching a lot of tutorials online but they leave me with lots of little questions

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 7:17 AM

#

Youtube is the best free option

#

You can also just pick a small project and start working towards creating it, then ask questions as you go

#

Udemy or other paid sites are your other option @fierce plover

#

Tons of great courses out there

#

I followed a few of Ben Tristams a couple years back

fierce plover Oct 23, 2018, 7:19 AM

#

are there any specific yt channles or udemy courses youd reccomend?

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 7:20 AM

#

I followed a few of Ben Tristams a couple years back

#

Depends on what field of game development you wanna learn

fierce plover Oct 23, 2018, 7:22 AM

#

xd
I think i primarily need to learn how to use blueprints and the the actual UE client for now, and then maybe a bit more about game/level design in the future

#

Maybe i dont even know what fields of game dev there are idk

i guess i dont know what i dont know

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 7:25 AM

My team has 9 major roles

#

Programming, Audio, 3d animation, Character modeling, hard surface modeling, Character concepts, Environmental concepts, level design, and Writing

#

Generally they shift based off the type of game

fierce plover Oct 23, 2018, 7:28 AM

#

I have 2 people helping me with Storywriting/Character Concepts/Concept Art and a buddy who really wants to do Character Modelling who i was going to ask to do the Animations as well cause i felt like they go hand in hand

#

Assuming i can find someone else to do audio or just pay for some, that leaves me with the programming and level design

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 7:29 AM

#

Note that characters have their own major responsibilities

fierce plover Oct 23, 2018, 7:29 AM

#

Ill have to look into what hard surface modelling is

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 7:30 AM

#

High-poly modeling -> Retopologizing to low-poly -> Skinning -> Rigging -> Animating -> Texturing

#

In AAA studios, those can each have a dedicated person

fierce plover Oct 23, 2018, 7:31 AM

#

You start from high poly huh

vivid girder Oct 23, 2018, 7:31 AM

#

High-poly and low-poly sculpts are generally the same person

fierce plover Oct 23, 2018, 7:31 AM

#

Do you think its too much work for one person?

#

to do all that

As for your journey with level design and programming, I don't know your background but I definitely wouldn't skip some of the fundamental theory of programming

#

basic data types and containers at least

#

If you're not familiar, definitely start with paid unreal courses (or basic programming)

#

blueprint vs c++ is mostly semantics

fierce plover Oct 23, 2018, 7:36 AM

#

yeah

#

I think understanding data types and containers comes kind of naturally as I play with UE, but every now and then theres things that i can know how to do without understanding why its necessary u kno

#

is there anything else in particular u think i should know when it comes to the fundamental theory of programming?

@raven kayak Only fbx's can be imported. Vertex colors, UV sets, and material slots are transferred

aye, I know nothing about that error

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:40 AM

#

@polar hawk could you tell me one other thing?

#

how do you compile or build, whatever it is called, in vs code

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:41 AM

#

find project in solution explorer

#

right click

#

hit build

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:41 AM

#

thx

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:42 AM

#

you can hit f5 if you're feeling saucy

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:42 AM

#

can you tell me why its talking about houdini

#

in the terminal

#

and another error

#

hell

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:43 AM

#

no

#

Oh you're using VS Code

#

and not Visual Studio

#

well

#

good luck

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:44 AM

#

@polar hawk will I need it?

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:44 AM

#

I heard VS Code is supported

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:45 AM

#

that isnt very reassuring

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:45 AM

#

but the overwhelming majority of UE4 devs will use Visual Studio

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:45 AM

#

the only thing i have probelm with vs is

#

the load time

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:45 AM

#

if you think thats bad

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:45 AM

#

it takes almost 2 minutes to open up whenever

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:45 AM

#

try game dev

#

2 minutes does seem excessive though

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:46 AM

#

and c++ building is like eternity

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:46 AM

#

it is once

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:46 AM

#

really?

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:46 AM

#

after its built, most things don't need rebuilt

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:46 AM

#

it seems that way for every time

#

do I have to hot reload?

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:46 AM

#

no

#

is an eternity for you 10 seconds or 30 minutes

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:47 AM

#

7- 10 minutes

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:47 AM

#

unless you are editing the engine directly

#

it shouldn't take that long

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:47 AM

#

on changing 5 lines

#

and i am serious

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:47 AM

#

but if it takes your computer 2 minutes just to load visual studio

#

I think its your machine

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:47 AM

#

yup

#

maybe

#

I haven't got that good of a macine

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:48 AM

#

are you running on a dual core celeron

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:48 AM

#

but its not cheapasss either

#

no

#

r5 1600x

#

lol

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:48 AM

#

uh

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:48 AM

#

celeron I was like 6 yeasr ago

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:48 AM

#

is your main hard drive from 2005

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:48 AM

#

no

#

its a wd 7200 rpm green

#

1 tb

#

and its this year only

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:49 AM

#

putting windows on an ssd will help a lot

#

but still shouldn't be 2 minutes

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:49 AM

#

lol

#

ok

#

lets see about saving for an ssd then

#

how big should iget?

#

256 or 512?

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:50 AM

#

you only have one hard drive currently?

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:50 AM

#

yes

#

I got an ssd

#

but I put it in another computer cuz I thought i needced it more there

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:50 AM

#

you should probably watch some videos about ssds vs hdds and about having multiple drives, installing windows to the ssd and other stuff to the other

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:50 AM

#

I actually know about that

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:50 AM

#

depends on a lot of things which ssd and what size you get

#

well then

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:51 AM

#

I keep up to date with pc hardware news

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:51 AM

#

a ue4 source build can easily be 80gb+

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:51 AM

#

is SATA gonna help?

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:51 AM

#

but in your case you'd probably put it on your hard drive not an ssd

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:51 AM

#

I might go for 256 or 512 sata

#

nvme too daim expensive

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:51 AM

#

when working with UE4 I kind of think 2 ssds are the minimum

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:52 AM

#

1 tb each?

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:52 AM

#

sata instead of nvme is still much faster than what you got

#

at the moment my current office machine has a 256gb ssd for windows, a 256gb ssd for current projects, a bigger 1TB hdd for storing older stuff, and I got a whole network storage server

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:53 AM

#

ok 512 sata cheapest costs 130$

#

here

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:53 AM

#

I install windows on a 256gb, and put ue4 on the second ssd

#

and often times on this machine I wish they were bigger

#

However they're incredibly fast nvme/pcie drives

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:53 AM

#

how many lanes does 1 nvme take

#

any Idea

#

I think my chipset might now supporty

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:54 AM

#

lanes are weird and some devices can change the amount of lanes they need

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:54 AM

#

notZ*

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:54 AM

#

for example you can plug a 1080 into a pcie 1 or 4

#

it'll still work but it'll be slow

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:54 AM

#

I got a 1070

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:54 AM

#

I assume a nvme drive takes 4 lanes but I'm pulling that number out of my ass

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:54 AM

#

ok I'll see

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:54 AM

#

I'm not recommending you putting a gpu in a pcie 1

languid shard Oct 23, 2018, 9:55 AM

#

nvme drives are awesome for UE

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:55 AM

#

thanks for all the help

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:55 AM

#

aye

#

I'd rather have a 128gb nvme than a 1tb sata for ue4

languid shard Oct 23, 2018, 9:55 AM

#

I've got a 512gb 970evo direct on the motherboard (no pcie adaptater)

excuse me

#

is this sata or nvme

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:56 AM

motherboards with m2 slots

is living in 2018

languid shard Oct 23, 2018, 9:56 AM

#

sata m2

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:56 AM

#

there are some with pcie m2 as well

languid shard Oct 23, 2018, 9:56 AM

#

yeah

#

@leaden dust just check the speeds

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 9:56 AM

#

its 3000 mbps write

languid shard Oct 23, 2018, 9:56 AM

#

its nvme then

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 9:56 AM

#

when I built my current office computer, it felt super strange not having any sata cables

#

or 2.5" bricks

#

best part, no power cable

languid shard Oct 23, 2018, 9:58 AM

yeah

but cable management is much better with the disc on the mobo

lol was that on reddit

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 10:00 AM

Can you guys link a pcle nvme drive 256 gig or 512 gig

languid shard Oct 23, 2018, 10:00 AM

hmm don't think so

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 10:00 AM

I cant confirm

languid shard Oct 23, 2018, 10:00 AM

haven't posted anything on reddit @polar hawk

leaden dust Oct 23, 2018, 10:00 AM

Indian amazon shitty

polar hawk Oct 23, 2018, 10:00 AM

aye, someone must have got the same case with rainbow fans

languid shard Oct 23, 2018, 10:00 AM

@leaden dust 970evo or pro
