Hi all, I wanted to ask if this laptop is fine with working ue4
“ Microsoft Surface Book 3
Intel Core i7
16 GB Ram
Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 Max-Q w/ 4GB GDDR5 graphics memory”

[prime willow]

yes

but rendering will suck when you get to larger loads

[junior abyss]

What’s a good graphics card/specs for larger rendering loads
A 2060 and up?

[prime willow]

well the entire game making thing

is fake as much cool stuff as possible

and make it as convincing as possible

players dont need to understand the tricks

they just have to have quite the experience~

[pulsar onyx]

anyone have any ideas how i would do a countdown timer for begin play. so on HUD it would be 3,2,1, go, or ready,set,go and then the game and timer plays?

theres not a SINGLE yt tutorial for that specific mechanic but its so common haha

yeah, but i dont know how to implement a countdown into a Interface widget

and pause game and start game

im very new

ill just try it

[fierce tulip]

@past wing try asking in #graphics there are some smartiepants there who might be able to answer.

[pulsar onyx]

ok tyvm

hahaa ok

[weak cradle]

Im having trouble with collision

I know what the problem is, the wolf collision is colliding with the player collision

the problem im having is that the wolf has to be very close to the player to attack

and that range is what causes the push bug

Is there a way to somehow prevent that pushing bug while still having both collisions set to block

If i set the collisions to ignore, the wolfs head goes through the player, but it fixes

Heres my wolfs collision

[winter gate]

I'm not sure but it seems like the problem could be related to physics, specifically the mass of the two colliding rigid bodies.

[weak cradle]

yeah i know thats whats causing it

i just dont know how to prevent the colliding while still mainting a close distance

[mental helm]

I just got a mouse with a horizontal scroll wheel, is there any way to make it scroll left/right on blueprint and material graphs?

[rapid yarrow]

Howdy - I'm pretty new to UE. Quick question: Every time I create a new material (PBR) should I be making an instance of it? Is that general best practice? :/

[prime willow]

yes make an instance and use that

performance wise its ideal

also if you plan to have character creation or customizations

make dynamic materials istead

[rapid yarrow]

sweet - thought it might be the case - do you normally store instances of a material in a separate location?

[prime willow]

or you wont be able to edit colors or such of it during some run time creator system or such

[rapid yarrow]

Haha at this stage I'm looking more for scene creation/arch viz type stuff 🙂

[prime willow]

i typically store it in a folder next to the base materials so its not confusing

"skin material and skin material inst"

makes management easier and less of a headache

[rapid yarrow]

Is there anything else you normally expose via parameters (i'm showing only UV scaling for tiling atm) - do add a parameter for roughness/metal etc?

[prime willow]

um honestly its up to your setup

you can even use metal for your image setting if thats what you want to do

however im not so knowledgeable enough to know

[rapid yarrow]

I guess: spent the time setting up the parameters once - then can make things more useful in the instances later on 🙂

[prime willow]

if thats going to cause issues down the line using which ever node for whatever texture

but i havent seen any issues so far and have created some cool jank stuff doing so xD

that too

if you setup the material right the instance is easier to manage

[wintry torrent]

Is there a template or something that I can follow so i can rig a character to match default skeletal. I tried re-targeting but my character didn't have enough joints

[limber mesa]

Quick question having an issue with scope. I made a function that spawns an actor but the class variable is being passed into a param

I set the class var to be inst editable so I can edit it outside the editor

Hi, I am looking for some help with pixel streaming... I know the basics, I can set up the project and run the test project and learning project both locally and online.

So now I want to go to the next step in my idea. I have quite a few questions to be honest so if anyone has a lot of knowledge in this area I would appreciate having a conversation

[cyan bronze]

Ok here is my proble:
I have a FPS project with projectile firing from the gun socket. I would like it to rotate in the middle of the screen so it hits where the crosshair aims.
Back in unity i made it so that it made a raycast from the camera and what ever it hit, it lauched the projectile into that direction.
Is that possible in Unreal Engine.
For shooting i have use C++ but i think i could make the rotation in Blueprint and use the variable in C++? If that even works that way from blueprint to C++
What do you guys think?

[noble zodiac]

Does anyone know if the Send To Unreal - Blender tool is still valid or maintained? https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/blog/download-our-new-blender-addons or have things moved on?

[plush yew]

Ssr and reflection captures, I can't use them both at the same time because that makes reflection blending and it's look unnatural, Can I use a reflection capture as like ssr? I mean can I remove ssr and place reflection capture, will it work fine? Or can't I just make a reflection texture/face reflection, Then how?

[left crystal]

Um random question, but does anyone know a way to fix this: my friend can't connect to the only services on tony hawk pro skater 1 2 on pc and he has good internet.

[idle mantle]

strange question its about UE?

[left crystal]

Well the people help make it lol

[idle mantle]

sorry dont understand

[left crystal]

dang thank you anyways

[gaunt abyss]

It shouldn't, I'm expecting from that plugin to handle requests async so it really shouldn't matter if you are calling it every 50 or 5 seconds

Question is can your server backend/DB handle it, depending on what this is for

[subtle mural]

<@&213101288538374145> Should we maybe now have a separate channel for Pixel Streaming now that it's in Production Ready state?

[gaunt abyss]

I guess it depends on how popular and used pixel streaming is (gonna be) since it wouldn't make sense to make a channel for like 10 people using it, I guess if there is enough demand for it we can look into creating a channel for it

[subtle mural]

Sign me up 🙂
I am very interested in Pixel Streaming. I've been using Furioos for some time, but I am looking into using other services out there, maybe even having our own (my company's) platform dedicated for Pixel Streaming services.

[gaunt abyss]

It's an interesting topic for sure
Something I'm interested in too

[idle mantle]

We use it with GPT-3

but im just an artist lol

[gaunt abyss]

I'm more interested in reusing bits and pieces of the pixel streaming tech than the whole thing 😅

[idle mantle]

I animate for a friend that use it it's very impressive.. and now I'm figuring out how UE works lol

Hey is there a way to show only that on full screen please:

I just need to see how the animations look like in UE with the iClone live link

Also it lag so much lol need to change my computer I guess

[rapid yarrow]

Howdy - I'm pretty new at UE and have a quick question - I've imported a bunch of meshes from Blender to UE5 using the 'send to unreal' addon. My static mesh when import shows really big cubes on the default material.. is this a problem? (even if I scale textures/increase lightmass res?)

[brittle sedge]

ok, I have a massive problem

I can't move, scale or rotate anything

when I drag the sliders, or change the values, nothing happens

[idle mantle]

You are in playing mode man? :3 @brittle sedge

[lapis plinth]

hey, do you know how to install 4.27 ? i don't see it in engine upgrades

[idle mantle]

install unnreal launcher

and download?

[brittle sedge]

no

Defintely

not

i can see the arrows, and fly around

and stuff

[idle mantle]

Your problems are weirder than mine guys 😆

btw do you know how to have fullscreen ? only viewport screen?

[brittle sedge]

no

but, i can't do anything

a can't move

i can play, but, idk

[idle mantle]

restart UE?

[brittle sedge]

done that 3 times now

[idle mantle]

you dont have error message?

[brittle sedge]

nope

just won't move

[idle mantle]

upload your drivers maybe

[brittle sedge]

??????

why would that be important

[idle mantle]

I had problem with my Graphic card caused me problem with UE

[brittle sedge]

i don't have one

[idle mantle]

I fixed it by updating my GC

[brittle sedge]

i'm on mac

lemme try using metal to render instead of openGL

[idle mantle]

ok, man sorry Im a noob I guess someone else can help u better ^^'

[brittle sedge]

ok?

[idle mantle]

I meant "got it"

[cyan bronze]

How should i call this when hitting something. The hit result is taken from C++

[brittle sedge]

event on hit?

[cyan bronze]

?

[brittle sedge]

i think so?

i'm not sure

I don't know ue that well

but if that doesn't work, i followed a tutorial that used an overlap event

you select the object

under physics, select generate overlap event

and then you can use that

(i think)

[cyan bronze]

nvm its hitting my player character. brb

[brittle sedge]

ok?

[cyan bronze]

Yea event hit doesnt work

[brittle sedge]

btw, what r u trying to do

is the player hitting lava or something like that?

[cyan bronze]

Line trace from gun to enemy

[brittle sedge]

ohhhhhh, ok

[cyan bronze]

Event hit triggers only with physic colission

[brittle sedge]

uh

[brittle sedge]

yeah

[brittle sedge]

wait, why don't use instead of line trace, generate a bullet actor, and give soo high velocity, that its basically a line-trace

but realistic

AND you can use event hit

but, if you don't want to use it, i think I have a solution

gimme a sec

[cyan bronze]

I had that and im currently chansing it to a line trace

[brittle sedge]

ok, then, gimme a sec

[cyan bronze]

And i will make it so the line trace acts as the damage and the bullet actor as a visual

[brittle sedge]

cool

I think i have a solution, I'm not sure though

[cyan bronze]

If i make its velocity high im afraid that it might not work so well with the collision

[brittle sedge]

but, why don't use just despawn it when you hit?

so it doesn't bounce or anything

idk

[cyan bronze]

I mean that it might not register it

[brittle sedge]

hmm

[cyan bronze]

Everything works with "Ticks" and if i make the velocity too high it might skip the player

Unity has that problem

Unreal does better job on that but not sure how much better

[brittle sedge]

hmmm,

but like, couldn't you do some math to predict?

anyways, here is all I can help:

[cyan bronze]

blurry 😄

[brittle sedge]

I know, srry

i will give better version

so, basically, what this is doing is that it is detecting if a wall is on the left or right. I think that you might be able to modify it, so that you can detect if it hit an enemy, unfortunatly though, I am a noob, and I was following a tutorial, so I don't fully understand it

hope it helps anyways 😉

[cyan bronze]

Yea well ill get this to work at some point no worries

[grand oyster]

I just started using unreal and im confused as to how to make it so while im playing the game i want to make it so when i press the e key i want to make the max walk speed to go up by 500

[formal temple]

@grand oyster, have you set up the E key in your inputs?

I don't have the starter project in front of me, but I do recall there being a walk speed variable

[exotic thicket]

there is a speed value in character or character movement component which could be used

[keen charm]

How difficult do you think it would be for someone to make a game like Binding of Isaac?
for someone at a beginner level?

[formal temple]

Depends on how nuts you want to go

You could probably start out with the top-down template

Or was it there a twin-stick template I forgot about

If you want to go 2D, though, UE might be overkill

[cyan bronze]

This is on my Enemy and its not taking my raycast shooting damage

This is on player

[stark gyro]

my is my character spawning in the middle of nowhere when creating a new level

[wind gate]

hey guys, I am working on a project on different computers and the same project I worked a bit on an old gtx960m but would be very slow (even on lower screen resolution) on an apple m1. And that on 4.26 and the newly released 4.27. I thought the 4.27 would make some core elements run natively and solve this issues as in this specific example its not a gpu issue since the m1 as far as i understand is at least a bit better than a super old 960m. I'm actually asking mostly to understand, for the time being maybe ill stick to Windows workstations. thx in advance.

[stark gyro]

Why isnt default player start coming up as an option

I have the character in the level

[formal temple]

@stark gyro do you have a PlayerStart object anywhere in the level?

[stark gyro]

no

[formal temple]

Alternatively, I think there should be a checkbox somewhere on the placed character that has you possess it by default, I just forget the name

[formal temple]

Well there it is

[stark gyro]

Sweet

[formal temple]

That should work, and replacing it with a playerstart object should also work

Assuming you have your gamemode set up correctly

[stark gyro]

yeah nah it works

thanks

So why does my AI enemys Projectile got no Velocity at all? I got ProjectileMovementComponent and all, it once got Velocity but its gone now? I only changed the Texture of the Projectile and it left me wondering

[flint urchin]

If I move one folder into another inside the UE content browser, and it succesfully transfers the folder and all files within, and the original now empty folder refuses to be deleted from the content browser after fixing redirectors, am I ok to delete the folder from windows explorer or is there some reason that folder cannot be deleted?

[thick herald]

It's the gremlins, always the bleedin' gremlins

[unreal widget]

Okay so bit of an odd question, but does anyone else get weird whining noise from their hardware when they run Unreal? Seems whenever the editor is on focus it does this, I suspect it might be the graphics card but I'm just curious if anyone else has had this before.

Engine and hardware runs fine aside from the noise, its just a bit grating after a while.

[thick herald]

Unreal has a habit of doing that. Sometimes restarting the project will let you delete them in engine. If there aren't any redirects, and you've checked that nothing is being referenced you should be okay to nuke it via Windows. Unless someone else more knowledgeable chimes in, of course.

[flint urchin]

Thanks, double checked and nuked from windows. Seems ok.

[orchid lodge]

It seemed menial too make a paintable surface that you can then scan based off how many pixels are X color

But im finding nothing too suggest how to do this.

[chilly schooner]

Hey everyone, just started learning unreal recently and have a question about blueprints vs c++. For bigger projects, do teams/individuals typically prefer one over the other? The blueprints seem extremely flexible for all the basic things I'm testing out, but are there any shortcomings that would make me want to use c++ in some scenarios? Also, do most projects have a mix of both, or do they typically stick to one or the other?

[nimble crater]

You're typically going to see a mix of both. I create some functions in C++ and expose it to Blueprints

And things that are calculating allot of math may be better suited to be done in C++

[cyan bronze]

How do i use this ApplyDamage. I know what it does and what each thing that i have to fill up means but still i have problems with the AActor* parts

[chilly schooner]

Ok gotcha, so you're favoring C++ in situations where the logic is a bit more advanced and you need more control beyond the options a blueprint gives you

[vestal anchor]

You're gonna see a mix of both. Some studios have made games entirely in blueprint, some are completely in C++ though those are usually studios with access to a lot of programmers and NEED every frame, like an eSports title, both have their strengths and weaknesses.
Here's a good video https://youtu.be/VMZftEVDuCE

[nimble crater]

Lots of times it's not about options, but just performance. While blueprints aren't necessarily slow, they still aren't as fast as C++.

Granted for me personally, I'm not great at C++ so I stick with Blueprints as much as possible.

[chilly schooner]

Ok, that makes sense. Thanks for the info!

[cyan bronze]

Like why wouldnt this work?

[chilly schooner]

Thank you! Going to check that video out

[wary wave]

because that code probably doesn't compile and 'HitResult' is not an actor.

[steep basin]

is it possible to animate inside ue4? If the base model and rig are already set up yata yata? or an easy way to edit animations for the model that are already in?

[plush yew]

What is this?

What causes that wrong shadows

[steep basin]

for foliage and tree of the sort you would normally use global lighting or world lighting

try adding a "light source" to the level

[steep basin]

Directional light

type it into search top left and drag it into the level

[plush yew]

There is it

And it's buggy too

Only directional light, it is compeletly black

It looks like a lightmap bleeding, but it's not because this is dynamic

[steep basin]

check skysphere

view options bottom right

show engine content

type into search enginesky

drag that into your level

[steep basin]

does that work?

[plush yew]

You mean sky sphere? it is already at the scene

There is nothing wrong with map. It is with bark mesh

I downloaded it with marketplace but didnt expect that

[fair summit]

is there a way to do something each time a float variable changes?

[plush yew]

You mean random variables?

[plush yew]

Some tree meshes have that problem, I think I cant use them for now

[fair summit]

i have a button that each time i click it increases a float

i want to do something each time that float increases

not when that button is clicked

[plush yew]

Event tick

it updates every time

[fair summit]

isnt even tick for everything in general

[plush yew]

once time you use it, use sequence node to make multiple things with it

[fair summit]

i dont want when every tick passes

i want when that float changes in general

or increases

[chrome dust]

Is this C++?

how do you properly use animation notifiers on the actorBP?

trying to set up a hitbox for my attack animations

Hi, does anyone know anything about spawning actors on a thirdperson player

[orchid lodge]

Get actor location. Spawn actor of class

[reef cove]

Cheers

And how would i set the location

[plush yew]

set actor location

[reef cove]

ah

And would this be done in the character blueprint?

[plush yew]

your question is pretty damn vague man

what are you trying to do?

[reef cove]

Oh sorry

I have an actor which is an AoE attack, im trying to spawn it on my character using the key E.

[plush yew]

then yes do it in your characterBP

[reef cove]

I know its dumb to ask questions on here with little experience, but youtube isnt giving me any good results 😅

Ah

I know its deffo not this simple, could someone tell me what im doing wrong

[plush yew]

@plush yewsaying that, whos the 5% on youtube who does know his shit?

where do you go?

vimeo? 👏

[reef cove]

Im a level designer, please bare with me lol idk much about blueprints

[plush yew]

I kid I kid

btw, why do all nodes default to floats?

is it okay to to use ints and just convert to floats when needed?

[exotic thicket]

What nodes are you talking about?

[plush yew]

literally any node lol

[exotic thicket]

There's quite a few which use ints, such as the for loop

[plush yew]

delay nodes

anim montages

[exotic thicket]

Yeah, it makes sense for those to use floats because if you wanted to delay for half a second for example

If your value is a whole number, say you're counting something, then definitely just use an int

[plush yew]

yea some make sense

some dont lol

[reef cove]

Is there a help chat on here?

[plush yew]

@plush yewalso excuse me but andrewWs shit on youtube is fantastic 😛

[exotic thicket]

Thanks man

[odd adder]

I still have this question if anyone can help me, I tried sub-levels and that doesn't really help.

https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/tutorial-smash-bros-style-multiplayer-camera-system-blueprints/27721

[prime willow]

i have a retarded question

guys please point me in the right direction ok

so i have a button i want to be directly for stuff like crouching, sliding during sprint, wall running during near box collisions or so of the wall,*

however i want different actions to chain from any of the stated things the crouch button would do *

so would it be best to setup the crouch as a state machine as well that is referenced back and forth*

[plush yew]

@prime willow I would think of it as an "action button" as opposed to a crouch button with surprises.

There's probably a few ways you could go about getting an action button to be context sensitive... state machine would work.

[prime willow]

yeah thats what i called it xD

ah okie

[plush yew]

Generally speaking with something like this, my main goal would be to avoid a bunch of if statements or one massive switch statement

That sounds like a maintenance nightmare with lots of surface area for bugs

[prime willow]

o.o

[plush yew]

Maybe not, but that's just me 😄

[prime willow]

ah so i want to go with state machines

and what would be best to use insteead of switch or if's o-o

[plush yew]

I mean, get it working however you can

[prime willow]

of course xD

[plush yew]

But once it's doing what you want, I would try to refactor away from the if (isRunning && isNearWall) type stuff

And instead formalize in-game events that put you into finite states

(maybe using an ENUM)

[prime willow]

o.o

[plush yew]

I may not be making sense, heh eh

[prime willow]

no no its ok i kind of understand

[plush yew]

So one idea for example, could be like a delegate that your action button calls — right? just a simple delegate invocation when it's pressed

And then you manage what delegate it's attached to based on in-game events

[prime willow]

o.o

[plush yew]

I'm just brainstorming with you, maybe something I'm saying will make sense

[prime willow]

so state machines and use enums and delagations for that via custom events in finite states rather than loops right?

[plush yew]

I'm not sure if they all make sense to use together

[crystal skiff]

Im brainstorming a new game for my first game, So. Youre a chimpanzee, on drugs, crazy weird lighting, and its like my friend pedro and you kill people by throwing bananas at them.

[prime willow]

sounds fun o.o

[crystal skiff]

honestly does

[plush yew]

I like the idea of enums because it means you could never be in two conflicting states because of buggy if/else boolean spaghetti

[arctic hare]

sounds awesome

[prime willow]

would that also be a good way to setup things like combo attacks and other systems that interlink into a bunch of other systems

[arctic hare]

super stoked for the ue game jam coming up

[plush yew]

Mmmm, just used GPU lightmass for the first time 🤤

So fasssst

[plush yew]

Combo system sounds a little more like topological sorting — essentially a branching tree of dependencies

[prime willow]

o.o

[plush yew]

attack 1a -> 2a -> 3a

or attack 1a -> 2a -> 2b -> 3b

[prime willow]

so i wouldnt want to use enums for something like attacks and such just for the action setup o-o

[plush yew]

Well, the enum is cool for "only one thing at a time"

[maiden iris]

snowie, how is the character creator going? im waiting for screenshots 😄

[plush yew]

So you could never have a "can jump" and "can't jump" at the same time

[prime willow]

well im trying to tackle data tables and understanding enums so i can make it lmao

oh i get it

[maiden iris]

wait, thats supposed to be the easy part 😄

[plush yew]

if you had canJump = boolean && boolean and canNotJump = boolean && boolean it's possible you could get into conflicting states right?

[prime willow]

oh i ge tit

[plush yew]

so rather than maintaining a bunch of booleans, just set your action = ActionEnum::ValidAction

something like that

just an idea

[prime willow]

its for setting up things that shouldnt merge with other states at once

thats actually really cool o.o

[plush yew]

so you might have to weight/rank your states

so running next to a wall might be higher priority than just running

so that ActionEnum::WallRun is used instead of ActionEnum::Slide

this is just one idea, I'm sure there are other approaches, I just have been burned so many times by trying to use boolean spaghetti

[prime willow]

im trying to figure out how to mix that stuff with animation blueprints per mesh associated, and grooms and slap widgets into it with gender and age differences

it gets messy when i try to grasp that all at once ._.

[prime willow]

oh ok so id have to prioritize it if i went towards enums

[plush yew]

I think so

That's why I was brainstorming the delegate approach

[prime willow]

can they flip flop regrdless of prioritizes?

[plush yew]

You could have more than 1 action bound at a time

[prime willow]

x-x

[plush yew]

I'm not sure, I wouldn't think so

[prime willow]

blahh xD

i might just go with boolean spghetti since i want my systems to dance between each other like a formal dance

[plush yew]

Many developers prefer that, because it's easier to get started

It just turns into hell on earth when you get conflicting states

[prime willow]

hmm

[plush yew]

I think whatever you had in mind for a state machine could be good

I just wanted to throw some other ideas at you

[prime willow]

if i setup a bunch of transitions wouldnt that counteract the constant conflicting states that could occur O:

[plush yew]

state machine cannot be in two states at once

that would require parallel machines

[prime willow]

ah

[plush yew]

so state machine would still be good for the "only one possible valid action per button click"

[prime willow]

can functions or events be state macines or is it button stricted only

[plush yew]

but if still can flip flop every tick based on wonky boolean spaghetti

[prime willow]

ah so itll work

itll just get messy as heck

[plush yew]

it could

[prime willow]

okie okie thanksies ill see what ican do based on this conversation

[plush yew]

It's going to be great!

[prime willow]

i hope so lmao

[plush yew]

'Eyyyy my editor stopped crashing after upgrading from 4.26.2 to 4.27

The gods are on our side!

[prime willow]

lol id hope xD

okie back to work for me!

[barren ocean]

Do you have any idea why I get this weird pattern on the wall? The wall is made up of white wall pieces (400x400) from the engine startercontent. Lighting is with one point light set to static (CPU lightmass).

[stark gyro]

Does anyone have any idea on why my second level is so much brighter then my first? I have changed nothing and have added no lighting components

[sharp crest]

disable auto exposure https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2kIre_BHgA

[stark gyro]

I figured out what it was. Its an object 'GlobalPostProcessSettings' Its in my first level but not in the second

Really confused as to why

[sharp crest]

ok

[stark gyro]

Do you know why?

[sharp crest]

Idk what u mean tbh

if it's just a postprocessing actor then just delete it or whatever

[stark gyro]

this is making the lighting look nice

but its not there in the second level

[sharp crest]

bro just right click

copy

open ur second level

ctrl + v

[stark gyro]

..

do u not think

ive tried

[sharp crest]

it does work tho

[stark gyro]

nvm

it worked

ily

[sharp crest]

lol

[stark gyro]

ty

[sharp crest]

klol

[prime willow]

[stark gyro]

there was no copy option

so i assumed you couldnt ctrl c

[sharp crest]

omg I want noodles

Idk if to eat or sleep

Im tired and hungry

I hate when this happens

lol

gonna get snacks and watch netflix insetad

[hushed cedar]

did anyone here had a problem with the bottom right part of the engine not recognizing mouse in 4.27?

i can't select anything at the bottom of the details panel

[sharp crest]

just use 4.26

literally no game changes in 27

[light prairie]

hm can anyone point me in the right direction as to why my r.ForceDebugViewModes=1 isn't working in a packaged game (engine version: 4.26.2 built from source) i have it in my config and it worked in 4.25 before I upgraded but I'm unsure as to why it's different now

[sharp crest]

this?

[light prairie]

yeah i've googled a bunch and the initial solution i had found(give me a sec to get the actual link) had worked fine for me

ah this https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/buffer-visualization-in-executable-build-of-my-project/27059/8

[sharp crest]

hm Idk sry

[lavish turret]

Hey all, hopefully this is the correct channel for this, but I'm having trouble understanding the built-in Puzzle Template

What I'm trying to figure out is how the camera works

I understand that the PuzzleGameMode sets the default pawn and the player controller class

But I just can't seem to find where it sets how the camera functionality works

[sharp crest]

probably player controller or player character @lavish turret

[lavish turret]

So I see in the PuzzlePlayerCharacter there is a Camera component

But there's no player start or anything in the default level

But there is a camera actor, which clearly is what's being used, but if I create a new level with a camera actor it doesn't get controlled

[plush yew]

hi

hi have a problem

how can use a player blueprint in a proyect designed like "FILM"

?

[sharp crest]

screenshots, unclear what u want

[sharp crest]

wut

[lavish turret]

Sorry, I'm not quite sure how a screenshot is going to help convey what I'm asking

[sharp crest]

Idk what camera u r talking about

[plush yew]

I need to use a player in a film project

[lavish turret]

So this is the default Puzzle map from the Puzzle Template

[sharp crest]

do u want to find where it gets possesed or when it gets moved?

[lavish turret]

Where it gets possesed

[sharp crest]

cool story bro

[lavish turret]

The camera never moves

[plush yew]

do you know how can i do it?

[sharp crest]

just press ctrl + f and search for view blend and/or possess

[lavish turret]

The event graph for the PlayerCharacter only has to do with if the player is in VR or not

[sharp crest]

u r unclear

[lavish turret]

There's no instances of view blend or posses

[plush yew]

@lavish turret Is your game mode (and default pawn) set?

[sharp crest]

its a cameraactor

[plush yew]

oh sorry, my proyect is a proyect is in film mode, but i need to define a character as a player

[lavish turret]

Yeah so it's set

[sharp crest]

this is not where u set it

[lavish turret]

Oh sure so that's set on the map I created but when I click play the player does not posses the camera actor

[sharp crest]

bro just blend it uself

use view blend

some node like that

[lavish turret]

What I'm trying to understand is how this behavior works in the built-in Puzzle Template

[plush yew]

I don't think camera is a pawn

Only pawns can be possessed afaik

[sharp crest]

just delete bps from the working level until it stops working

[sharp crest]

can still blend view

[lavish turret]

There's only one pawn on the default map, besides skysphere

Let me check that

[sharp crest]

just delete every god damn node then, lol

[plush yew]

@lavish turret I learned a fair bit going through the top down template, I think you're on the right path reverse engineering it.

[lavish turret]

Yeah, I mean for sure the behavior has to come from the Player Characater or the Player Controller

[sharp crest]

probably

maybe level bp too

[plush yew]

Have you checked out the blueprints on the BP_GameMode ?

[sharp crest]

I think he did

[plush yew]

I seem to recall that having a fair bit of logic

[lavish turret]

So the PuzzleGameMode is currently just data only

And the tutorial mentions that all it does it set the Player Controller Class and the Default Pawn Class

[sharp crest]

ill check

im bored

template name?

[lavish turret]

Puzzle

[sharp crest]

ye

bruh

I thought u said

u copied the camera to a new level

and it didnt work

..

u didnt

[lavish turret]

Nah I didn't I created a new camera

But that's what I was looking for

tyvm

[sharp crest]

👍

[lavish turret]

God it's always something so simple

Thanks for the help tho, much appreciate

[sharp crest]

sometimes ye

[lavish turret]

I don't think I would have ever looked in the camera settings

Was hung up on the player controller

But all the player controller does is enable click events and show the mouse cursor

[sharp crest]

I did what I told u, I removed all the bps and it didnt stop working, so it had to be the camera actor itself

I changed to the engine default pawn &contorller

Im bored

Iv been stuck on this thing in my game for like a few days now

it's like a lot of variables I need to think about and setup

not very fun

so havent rly started on it

maybe I should

Idk

[woven patrol]

im trying to learn unreal, can anyone recommend any free/very cheap courses I could take?

ik the basics btw

so im looking for something a little bit above beginner

[sharp crest]

you can check his other playlists.

[woven patrol]

thank you

[sharp crest]

but tbh youtube isn't great to learn apart from basics,
just think of a small game idea and try to do it, then google every single thing u dont know how to do. u'll learn faster this way, at least I learn faster this way, lol.

[woven patrol]

ahhh

alr cheers

[icy mulch]

Hey does anyone know how to fix a issue my packaged game crashes when ever I try to open the game

[sharp crest]

just make a new project and package that one and it will work np 👍

but if you are asking how to find out what the issue is,
then go to /Packaged Project Folder/Project Name/Saved/Logs/Project Name.log
and go to the bottom, and it should give u details on the crash cause @icy mulch

[glossy dagger]

Can someone tell me what LOD i should use for a tessellated Landscape, instead of -1 which is staying the same at all distances.

Material has flat tessellation, it's scaled to 0.25 to get real tight mesh, and LOD in details is -1, but afraid to change the value until i know which way it should go.

[astral phoenix]

Hello, my project is named ''Game1'' in my library, but when i package and play the game and wants to turn the game sound down i can see the name is not the same, how can i fix that so its the same name as in my library? 🙂

[zinc shore]

so when my character crouches the camera height is still above the capsule and when i change it in the character settings it wont work so how am i supposed to fix that

[glossy dagger]

do you have a spring arm added?

@zinc shore

[zinc shore]

no its a fps charater

[glossy dagger]

You still need a spring arm and the camera on it: https://docs.unrealengine.com/4.26/en-US/InteractiveExperiences/HowTo/CharacterMovement/

Step 6 of creating the player character

[sharp crest]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjEUzCpyWGA&t=0s

[glossy dagger]

can you swim in it? @sharp crest

[zinc shore]

this is the problem when i crouch the camera is obove the capsule

and i cant seem to change the height of the camera or capsule when crouched

[sharp crest]

bro there r settings in the movement component for crouch height and stuff like that

[sharp crest]

ye

[glossy dagger]

spring arm connects the character to the camera just fine, then of cousrse crouch height and any other settings are needed

[zinc shore]

but if i change them the height stays the same

no mater what i set these values nothing changes in game

if i set the height to 10000 it will still be the same as 65

[glossy dagger]

apparently i'm not really typing here

[zinc shore]

same with setting the capsule height

[glossy dagger]

hmm, is that UE5?

i thought it was 4

[sharp crest]

check the setings in the mvoement compnonet

[zinc shore]

docent work no mater what i set the value the height stays the same

[sharp crest]

well Idk

maybe ue5

[zinc shore]

is there anything else i can do or will i just have to deal with clipping though walls

[sharp crest]

just disable crouching or make ur own crouchning system

[zinc shore]

can i manually change the capsule height

[sharp crest]

ah maybe, try

prob

[zinc shore]

btw looks like this is a bug someone else had this problem https://answers.unrealengine.com/questions/838178/view.html

[sharp crest]

ok

[zinc shore]

apparently they forgot to add the ability to set it so you can only get its value

hope they fix that

I'm running across a problem where certain things, like fences and semi-opened assets are flickering even at a short distance...both in editor and in standalone. Any help would be appreciated.

[sharp crest]

gif/vid?

wdym flickering

just make a new project

put the assets there

see if it flickers

[upper bison]

Just slightly like it is see through yet still seeing it, don't know if that helps

But if you can tell me how to record i will. I have the Geforce Experience

Across all projects

dowlnoad this

then open Gyazo GIF app and select the screen area

then itll link u the gif

https://gyazo.com/ba16cb87a6b0e8118e20f50d1d132dfc

I think thats it

yeah

For some reason, in that gif it isn't showing the shimmer of the fence, just the distortion of it. I just updated all my drivers an hour ago hoping for a fix, because this has happened for the past 3 months of me using the software

Can someone help me with a issue, how would I go about making a button that hides a widget?

[icy mulch]

It says not using caced read wrapper started graph with 5 named threads and 26 total threads with 3 sets of task threads and when I try to migrate it does work when I press play it says blueprint editor

I accidently closed my world settings. How do I get it back??

[autumn flame]

Window -> World Settings

[modest swan]

Wheres window??

[autumn flame]

Top left

[modest swan]

Oh yea

Thanks

[crystal skiff]

Im importing my weapon. Which one should I pick?

[modest swan]

How do I get to my project settings again?

[crystal skiff]

this normal?

[sharp crest]

what is? add a skylight if u dont want the dark light

[sharp crest]

edit-> prj stngs

[crystal skiff]

I had a texture on it

It was yellow and stuff

[sharp crest]

so put the material on it

[crystal skiff]

I think I screwed up

[sharp crest]

did u tho

just add the material to the mesh

or make a material from the texture and add it to the mesh

[crystal skiff]

im new btw im sorry just a heads up

[upper bison]

click on the drop down where it says material, and look for the one that you are needing

[sharp crest]

it'd help if u would screenshot the whole screen

[sharp crest]

bro drag the texture image into here

from whereever u have it saved from ur pc

[crystal skiff]

I made it in blender, should I just export the texture as a png and drag it into UE4?

[sharp crest]

yes

then when it's in UE4, right click the texture and press create material from texture, then drag it to the model

[chilly schooner]

Can anyone recommend any good resources for programming vehicles in unreal?

[crystal skiff]

Oh alr, Thnak you so much for putting up with my dumbass.

[sharp crest]

there are 2 vehicle templates

[cosmic birch]

Where may I inquire as to how I can get my displacement (tessellation) back that I had in UE4 now in UE5? I've seen one video on ytube about a Virtual Height Field, and that was it.

I need the displacement socket back for my landscape surface material.

[sharp crest]

u cant there is no tesseliaoin with the new lighting thing @cosmic birch

as far as I'v heard at least

[arctic hare]

i got a question im trying to change the model in the fps template but it's always super massive any solutions

[sharp crest]

what?

just scale it down

there is a scale parameter

screenshot ur screen

[cosmic birch]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzYVeIF89V0 He did it.

I don't understand it yet.

[sharp crest]

looks like a completely different thing

gl

[cosmic birch]

Yikes. When you said before lighting thing, you mean lumen or something?

[arctic hare]

i tried to lower it to 0.2 but is stays the same size

[sharp crest]

doesnt make sense

it shyould scale down

just scale it lower

0.02

[sharp crest]

lumen ye

forget the name

but I'm not sure if u cant use it only with lumen, or if they removed it completely

I think they removed it completely

[cosmic birch]

Lucky I only found nanite when importing... I haven't even found the check box for lumen...

So I should really go UE4.26 then?

[sharp crest]

why would u use ue5 in the first place?

lol

[cosmic birch]

It's shinny.

[sharp crest]

[arctic hare]

just fixed it. Needed to change some nodes in the construction script

[sharp crest]

10000 reasons to use 4.26
0 reasons to use 4.27
-1 reasons to use 5

[sharp crest]

oh, ok lol

[crystal skiff]

Is there a way I can turn this into a texture?

[sharp crest]

go to blender discord

[cosmic birch]

You just made my problems go away. Tyvm.

[sharp crest]

not here

[cosmic birch]

emit node... as long as you keep that away from me.

[sharp crest]

lol

[sullen willow]

hi everyone may i get help?

[arctic hare]

sure

[sharp crest]

can't help u

[sullen willow]

well i wanto to create a top down survival game with wasd controls

[arctic hare]

alr

[sharp crest]

ok so open ue4 and choose a template and get started

[sullen willow]

i already have the top down wasd of course with the third person defaul blueprint

[sharp crest]

you do take a long time getting to the point, lol

[sullen willow]

well i have a lot of questions

[sharp crest]

better get started writing then

make sure to filter ones that u already tried to google

👍

[sullen willow]

mmh

well i would like to know

[zinc shore]

how can i change the capsule height without it moving the camera

[sullen willow]

whats the best way to create my custom 3d character

i cant find any 3d character thats free

[sharp crest]

u'd save the camera world location, then u'd change the capsule height, then u'd change the camera world location to the one u saved
(assuming changing the caps height moves the camera)

[sullen willow]

i only want a perfectly made 3d character if to anatomy it comes

[zinc shore]

when i do that it still moves or jitters

[sharp crest]

try ue4 marketplace

wait u want free

Idk then

try googlnig maybe u will find

[sullen willow]

i searched like crazy

[sharp crest]

if u do it on frame it wont jitter. try adding delays and stuff Idk. prob- u r doing it wrong :)

[sullen willow]

i only want a normal male for survival game

no cloth

or anything

only that it has a well made anatomy

rigged

is there any cheap way to get it

[sharp crest]

just ask your dad to buy you something from the marketplace

marketplace is cheap usually

20$ range for 1character

[sullen willow]

im from argentina

if i buy in dollars

i get to pay the double

in pesos

[sharp crest]

that's not how currencies work

[sullen willow]

and i have literally no money

[sharp crest]

u pay a similar value still

it's just ur currency is less valuable

[sullen willow]

taxes

iva

[sharp crest]

everyone has taxes

not only u

[sullen willow]

you clearly dont know about my country`s currency

[sharp crest]

just get paid in dollars then

[crystal skiff]

Where can I find textures?

[sharp crest]

?

unclear

[crystal skiff]

*Materials

[sharp crest]

wdym where

..

[crystal skiff]

My friend had a website where he could find a bunch of materials

sorry for being unclear.

[sharp crest]

o

just like

go to the ue4 marketplace

or go online and google free ue4 materials

but if u already have a texture, u dont need that

[crystal skiff]

Is it frowned abound to use free materials?

[sharp crest]

no it's ok

nobody carres if ur game is good

[crystal skiff]

true

Im just gonna make a simple bullet hell for my first game

I have a big game in mind.

[sharp crest]

ok ye better start with the small idea first

[crystal skiff]

Yeah cause you dont wanna be making an AAA game as your first game, you gotta start with something simple

[sharp crest]

well no it's just ur first game is gonna be shit

[crystal skiff]

Yeah that too

[sullen willow]

do you know how to recreate the advanced locomotion system from scratch?

[sharp crest]

isnt it free?

just download

https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/advanced-locomotion-system-v1

[crystal skiff]

God I love the 4 free things amonth

[sullen willow]

its too complicated to add new animations an blendspace i end up gettin it all messed up

[crystal skiff]

Do we have to cook jesse?

[sullen willow]

is it hard to make a basic locomotion?

[sharp crest]

haha 1000 ratings I think thats the most I'v ever seen on a marketplace asset

[sullen willow]

thats similat

[sharp crest]

Idk what locomotion is tbh I just use regular animations for my games works just fine

[sullen willow]

like

a movement blueprint with root motion thats smooth

[sharp crest]

ah

whnat game r u making?

[sullen willow]

with the sensation of weight and heavyness in steps

[sharp crest]

but just google root motion ue4 tutorial or something

[sullen willow]

third person top down

[sharp crest]

then why u need that?

doesnt sound like u do

[sullen willow]

i just need the walking to look real

[sharp crest]

itll look real if u use a good animation

lol

[sullen willow]

not just that

[sharp crest]

kk

[sullen willow]

aight thanks

one more thing

have you ever worked with metahuman?

[sharp crest]

no but there are a lot of other people here

#metahumans

[sullen willow]

yea i just asked there but no one seems to be online

[crystal skiff]

Would it be hard to make a weapon where you throw, then you have to get it back like a throwing knife?

[sharp crest]

no

[sullen willow]

i just did a project on that yesterday

and replicated kratos leaviathon

[sharp crest]

ok

[sullen willow]

im talking to trunk

but sure

[sharp crest]

Ik

[crystal skiff]

Wait, I think I saw a video on that

Idk if it was you tho

[sharp crest]

I feel left out send link

[sullen willow]

nah i made one based in three videotutorials

imma send em

[crystal skiff]

fr? Please do send a link

[crystal skiff]

Thanks bro!!

[sullen willow]

well

this first video

its the best and shortest explained

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoA7KNfA80k

very well explained fast and easy

heres a long and easy too

[sharp crest]

nice

[sullen willow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MKxbGjicJ0

heres the short and way to hard video

well

not that hard

but you need previous experience

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrTj_kZlzoU&t=7s

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-3P59GtRW4

for c++

[sharp crest]

wow people really do love that god of war axe

[sullen willow]

if yall wrap around thos videos you will be able to combine them and create something amazing

[sharp crest]

what's wrong with the first video?

[crystal skiff]

Damn

I probably will give it a watch

[sullen willow]

who said theres something wrong with that

one video has what the other doestn

doesnt

[sharp crest]

so what does it not have?

[sullen willow]

nones perfect

why dont you watch the video and form an opinion based on your own criteria about what the video lacks and doesnt?

[sharp crest]

I'm asking u since u already watched

its not an opinion

[sullen willow]

well

[sharp crest]

I need to know which video to follow

[crystal skiff]

You see im making one of those bullet hell/my friend Pedro, but your a chimpanzee on Drugs and you pick up bananas and kill people and you have to retrieve the banana every time you throw it, and there will be special bananas, you can also break through a few walls/windows, etc. Very gory too, and like explosive because funny drug

[sharp crest]

or what parts

[sullen willow]

in my opinion

the 1 hour long

[sharp crest]

just email that guy and ask him for the project files then

[sullen willow]

teaches you how to aim

like a bow

and shoot

[sharp crest]

soudns better

[zinc shore]

this is what i have

[sullen willow]

then get it back smoothly with through the right side of your screen

the first gets it back from the side

which its not realistic at all

[sharp crest]

right click the function input and press 'turn to custom event'

then gif and show me the issue

[sullen willow]

and the 10 minute long video thats hard

[zinc shore]

why dose it need to be an event

[sharp crest]

so u can add delays if needed

@sullen willowok

[sullen willow]

has the information on where to get the animations that make the axe throwing and recalling the realest

[sharp crest]

@crystal skiff did u figure out which vid to watch???

[sullen willow]

which are the paragon ones

from phase and kaimura

[crystal skiff]

I got them all in the tabs

in my tabs

[sharp crest]

so u did not

[crystal skiff]

The hour long one or the 10 minute

wait 10 minute one is hard

[sullen willow]

watch the 20 minutes first

actually

watch the 10 minute frist

just for informative purposes

then go one with the 20 min

to do it first as a practice

then the 1 hr

in parts

cuz you might get stuck and need to go back to the other two vids

for refresh

[sharp crest]

@crystal skiff ^

[sullen willow]

im working on meshing that tigether wi th the als

but its so complicated to me

[sharp crest]

ok

[sullen willow]

cool

[sharp crest]

very

[sullen willow]

Extremely.

[sharp crest]

not that much dont exaggerate bro @sullen willow

[sullen willow]

yeah sorry some times i do

like a million per second

[sharp crest]

ok

I'm bored

waiting for store to open

[sullen willow]

you mean the month free assets?

or what

[sharp crest]

real life store

stayedd up all night and now I'm hungry

lol

[sullen willow]

ohhh

not cool

[sharp crest]

whynot

[sullen willow]

hungry means hunger bar going down

which means dying

[sharp crest]

well I wont die cuz I'm gonna get food in a bit

store opens in 10 mins I think

[sullen willow]

as in real life dying

[sharp crest]

[sharp crest]

[crystal skiff]

Im gonna do those videos soon, I hope it will work as a throwing knife, as in you have to walk and pick it up after throwing, either way it will work

[sharp crest]

when u have that many videos, surely one will work

[crystal skiff]

Yeah

Even if it doesnt work the way I planned it to be

[sharp crest]

well u could just learn blueprints and do it urself

[crystal skiff]

I will probably change it to a Chimpanzee throwing a banana that comes back to him

[sharp crest]

but who's got time for that am I right

[crystal skiff]

Yeah youre right

[crystal skiff]

Wait do they have a team create?? like can multiple people work on 1 project at the same time?

[sharp crest]

I dont think u can work in the same level I think u need a plugin for that, but ye apart from that

[crystal skiff]

well if it is a plugin I dont mind I will probably install that

If you didn't sleep already, sleep on your problem and your brain will find the answer for you

[spark valley]

Yes

Ok ive dedicated my life to figuring this out now

Class Prarent1
Class parent2
Class kid1 inherite p1 p2
Class kid2 inherit p1 p2
Class wtfisdis inherit kid1 kid2

Is there a practixal use for a that? Probably not right?

Or just say no so i can be put to ease

This isnt possibke in single parenting but in lang where multiinheritance is allowed...
