Does your character have backwards walking/running animations too?

How many animations you got in that blend space though?
wanton lotus
You need the far left to be your idle animation and the far right to be your running animation.
Nothing in between
wanton lotus
Unless you have a separate walk anim too
When they don't move you want them in idle though
plush yew
i only want running animation
wanton lotus
right?
plush yew
ok i'm gonna add idle too
wanton lotus
Otherwise they will run in place
plush yew
but how
i don't want to run in the same place
i want to run forward
and not repeating the animation
wanton lotus
so you need idle anim on far left and run anim on far right.
plush yew
ok hold on let me open te animbp

Now we need to set your max to your max walk speed. Default is what, usually 600?

this aren't keyframes
plush yew
or whatever they are
frozen pond
this is blendspace

idle on left and run on right
still moat
I think we're gonna need a 24/7 Live support hotline
wanton lotus
You can even put run anim on one before the far right if you want it to cap out sooner.
wanton lotus
You can remove one of those run animations.
wanton lotus
Now set this value to 600
Just guessing that is the max walk speed, I think 600 is default.
wanton lotus
Compile and save everything then run it to test.

Oh well, nearly finished now

is it good?

yay
i changed to animation blueprint
and i selected the animation from AnimBP
wanton lotus
If that is the one you are editing, then yes looks good
frozen pond
no you don't
plush yew
he is not running
wanton lotus
You sure it is idle at 0 and run is the other one or you got only idle in there?
plush yew
idk
wanton lotus
in the blend space
plush yew
let me see
frozen pond
but you are moving yes ?
wanton lotus
In the blend space you can click and drag the green marker to test it out.
plush yew
i lost it
wanton lotus
You should see your character run as you get closer to the run animation.
wanton lotus
Click and drag an in blank area
wanton lotus
Move that run anim a bit further to the right. You will basically have no blending transition from idle to run, it just goes right into full run animation even at low speeds.
wanton lotus
Change you max to 600 in the details. It is still 100.
wanton lotus
Animation should have worked regardless of those changes though.

he is going back
this is the hardest thing

It's impossibile
It s Too hard
But i saw this in many games

celest vapor
Its not impossible. I assure you that.
Take some time to do more research on how UE4 handles animation and research the tools it provides to help aid you in fixing this
plush yew
I tried everything
I watched every tutorial
i searched on google
I did everything
i tried every method

Okay. Just to make sure i'm on the same page.
You are just trying to make a blendspace that goes from idle to walking/running?
plush yew
No
Idle and running
WITHOUT REPEATING
the same animation over and over
which animation?
running
like its running forward and then teleporting back?
YES
IT'S RUNNING FORWARD AND THEN TELEPORTING BACK

that could be a few things causing that. not just the animation

Speaking of Blendspaces. Does anyone know if you can update the min/max axis on a Blendspace 1D during play?
plush yew
_Answer you need to enable root motion and " force root lock" if that doesnt work then you need to place a new root bone for your animated skeleton and then retry that might not work but again haven't done animations in a long time
OK
I'm going to try
how can i get a root bone
have you done everything a tutorial has told you for Anim BP
I'm watching it rn
if you dont know Anim BP and a Blendspace are totally different things they both handle animation but in completely different ways Anim BP basically makes the Blendspace Function

You need to learn the basic
I want a singleplayer game where you can walk around.
Oh ok
That’s easy
(first person)
@plush yew that should be easy but its best to learn the engine first
That’s what I would suggest you, if u want a nice graphics with free asset u can use megascans, and for the first person u can use the first person shooter template
I just started installing it. so i'll need to load the basics.
plush yew
<@456226577798135808> that should be easy but its best to learn the engine first
^^^
So do the first person template?
I just booted it up.
Yes
Then what next.
Sorry i'm just new.
I'd like good graphics.
Leave it as it isnnow
plush yew
I'd like good graphics.
You could download quixel bridge, is a massive library with free assets if used in ue4
They are really high quality
I'll do that when it's loaded.
yeah its best to leave everything default to be honest
RTX makes everything better but you need an high-end pc
Actually I would suggest you to start learning the engine system and where everything is but if ur doing this just for fun it’s ok

i know this might sound silly but is it possible to build a smaller more contained game
with an opened world
and have the majority of the games overall mechanics and features
and than jsut expand the absolute fuck out of it xD
like adding on regions like lego blocks, entire races cities and such until its fully fleshed out
@plush yew like adding more landscape to the one you already have?
more landscapes
mechanics
features etc
races
clothing weapons
enemies
or do i have to do it all in one giant go >.<
ohhhh, yes you can haha dont do that its best to take it slow one step at a time
oh okie
so i can just make a smaller more contained game with all of the core aspects and than just build onto it with the funds from the games sales
because this was botthering me for quite a while aefdh
well yes you can but if its like that its best not to add everything
o.o
well i want to make a game that truly feels like an action 3d arena fighter sort of game
but like the scale of my mapped out project has been messing with me badly
oh ok well, again its best to take it slow if you publish the game thats starting small and with every core function it wont be as fun in the future, when starting it small its best to add stuff one at a time as the game progresses
you could add everything at once but i would just add everything that would make it the game such as what you listed, but as the game goes on add more functions and fixes
like more maps etc
Ah
idle stump
@plush yew It's very common and good practice to start with a goal for a simple game and get that all working before adding more features and levels, etc. This is often called your "minimum viable product" or MVP. For example, let's say that ultimately you want a huge open world with 10 different kinds of weapons, 5 big cities, etc. You're MVP might be to build 1 small part of that world with 1 city and only 2 weapons. Then you should just focus on completing that before worrying about any other things you hope you can add (we often call these other things "stretch goals").
If you can get your minimum viable product and small part of the world or few levels really well polished enough that it can be considered the quality of a real final game then this is known as a "vertical slice". Meaning, it's just a small part of the game that establishes what quality of game the rest of your levels/world has to live up to. THEN you start adding more stuff.
plush yew
Huh
So to give a base idea
If you know any of these games it would make the conversation flow smoother
you could take grand theft auto for example its compact with one city and just about every component yet they can still add more
or watch dogs
Gameplay like dragon ball xenoverse 2 and naruto storm with a heavy emphasis on floor.bound battle systems with mounting and and amazing mobility with a open world like breathe of the wild Zelda by the end of the games cycle
With character customization
so an rpg kind of game?
Its grossly misrepresentation of the game but that's a base idea for helping you understand
Like an rpg arena fighter
But with co-op on couch or online like old phantasy star online dream cast games
Also if you guys don't mind I'll be saving this conversation for reference lmao
oh ok, you could always lock some areas of the map that arnt there yet but you want to add in the future same goes with most core things
But would it be possible to start with something as small as the naruto to borrow Shinobu striker game
lofty wave

So I could just make the game like Kenmore said above and than expand the ever living he'll out of it o.o

starting small is best, like making a prototype your not sure what will happen but then you keep adding and making it bigger over time

Gamedev has courses for game development in both blueprints and c++ for Unreal.
waxen raven
Blueprints is just c++ in disguise buddy.
plush yew
in easier way
waxen raven
Not really, eventually you'll wind up needing to know how it works, much like you're having problems now.
This field... is a ton of work. Years for results.
north creek
Blueprints is just c++ in disguise buddy.
any logic based programming even in nodes is c in disguise, the point is that node programming is way easier
waxen raven
My point remains.
north creek
one could say that blueprints are assembler language in disguise too
waxen raven
Except there will not likely ever be a need to break it down and look at it in that level. For bp I've had to look at how the c++ is written numerous times.
north creek
isn there a way to work in python with ue 4?
plush yew
isn there a way to work in python with ue 4?
I don’t think
waxen raven
Yeah, and python is to my understanding still based in c++
There is a plugin I believe.
But I use raw c++ so don't need to know.
north creek
the point is that python is way lighter in the things you need to declare
waxen raven
Syntax arguments aren't gonna help here either. It's a little more friendly to someone who doesn't know how the computer works is my understanding. But regardless, dude would still have a ton of learning.
north creek
its a lot easier, but if the engine doesnt translate it to c++ in a efficient way it will be a disaster for perfomance
north creek
Syntax arguments aren't gonna help here either. It's a little more friendly to s...
agree
waxen raven
And that was more the center of what I was trying to get at. You will, at some point, hit a roadblock where you'll have to understand how things work in making any game, unless it's incredibly simple. Animation bps alone I would suggest indicate too much complexity for you not to hit it lol.
I'm just pointing him to resources that won't clutter up general chat with questions that really belong elsewhere.
north creek
well, if he never touched any programming language, python is a good start for understanding logic at least
waxen raven
I have heard that a lot. But he will still need a lot more of a push in the learning direction, and I'm sure with a few structured courses he'll get a much better idea of what he's missing. And what he needs to learn in order to get the basics to understand what exactly the engine is doing for him. The one downside of Unreal is is makes things so easy we don't realize the thousands of things it's already doing.
waxen raven
I would say nodes are an extension of that. But programming language arguments hide that underneath it all requires very similar understanding of what a computer stores/understands and how. Hence they are a language XD. What one you talk in may influence how sentences are formed etc, but with enough knowledge you can get similar points across.

Changing world units without changing the object size, I'd assume it'll just convert to the correct % of the other.

I'd look up logging, been a bit but you can add a line to the command file to have it print a log
Had to use that for multiplayer myself a few times.

Do you guys know what's the proper way to do buildings in a openworld (When you enter a house in fallout/skyrim for example). Is it a complete new level or it's a sublevel of the persistent level or something else?
I can't find anything that answer my question on google unfortunately
The thing that bugs me with this is that they surely don't unload the world itself, otherwise it would take the same amount of time to exit a building as when you boot the game
I'm assuming they unload a lot of stuff but they keep the world loaded

@light thunder Wait im sorry , i think im probably blind but arent both trucks the same scale? What happens if you set the value to 1 ?
light thunder
I appreciate the attempt and want to encourage you to keep trying to help people, even if you can't help, most people will appreciate the effort - no, the import scale should basically make it so that the scale you import it will become the new 1.0 for that model - so if you brought in a item and made it 100x as big in the import scale, it would be that size, but your scale you would see in the editor would be 1

I think you're talking about using a blendspace, @mossy remnant. Not sure, though, from your description, what you want.

I mean like, if you can somehow modify, the only animation "pistol_idle" in pack AnimationStarterPack, like somehow modify spine or some other bone to make it "pistol_walk" for ex. you will have half body thirdpersonwalk and half body pistol_idle.

depends on what kind of outline you are looking for. One way is to add a border widget in the background and then cover it with the content so only the border is showing. For more complex shapes, faking it with an image behind it is cheapest.

would buying a character creation system from the marketplace and than adding on...
depends how good the asset is I guess. And how much time you want to put into learning how it's constructed. If you think it will save you any time at all worth the money, and you know it's right for purpose, buy it. Otherwise shop around. Might be others around that do have what you want

So after some more testing with animation sharing, I wasn't paying attention to the right stuff. My FPS wasn't changing because I'm not CPU bottlenecked. After testing out the stuff in two different development builds (one with sharing, one with not sharing)....

Non-Sharing: 252 characters, 17 ms game thread
Yeah...that's a tremendous gain. This isn't with the state processing in C++ either.

It's okay sorry it's late but thanks for offering to help. Looks like a bandaid is a lot of 'isvalid' nodes but I will take a closer look at another time. It's a lot of interlocking BPs and I think it has to do with the speed at which each of the BP logic flows runs.
Basically I have one BP to spawn some actors but then I run some logic and after destroy some actors according to some conditions, then I set all the actors into an array, then I have a second BP that accesses the array of the first but somehow I need to make sure it waits until everything in the first is completely set
