@faint boneCasting is a way to tell the system (compiler) to threat a reference to an object (say a Pawn) as being a reference to a more specific class derived from it (say a Character), so you can take advantage of the extra functionalities the derived class has or access its specific variable (members).

In order for the cast to work the two classes need to be related (one has to be a parent or ancestor of the other). Maybe an example can help.

In Unreal you have Hit events and overlaps between two actors. The hit or overlap event will tell you which actor has generated the hit or overlap by providing a reference to it, but to stay as generic as possible, the reference will be to a generic Actor. Now if you want to check it that generic Actor is actually your pawn or something else, you can try to cast that reference to your Pawn class and, if it succeeds, then you know it was the Pawn and not something else.

@neon magnetwhich version of the engine is that? Try a repair from the Epic Launcher.

[neon magnet]

4.27.1

what would a repair do - would it reset anything like blueprints and stuff?

I'm at the throw hands up and sob stage lol major depression from the insane unexpected and inexplicable crashes

[patent cobalt]

@neon magnetno, it will check the consistency of the engine install and repair something if needed. It won't touch your projects.

[neon magnet]

I just closed my project and it crashed on close ...

[patent cobalt]

The other thing to try on the project is a clean-up. So make a full back-up copy of your project in a separate folder, then go into the project folder and delete everything except Content, Config, the uproject file and, if present, the Source and Plugins folders.

That will reset your project and the engine will rebuild all the shaders/temporary assets.

[neon magnet]

I've clicked on verify right now, that's the right thing to do right?

[patent cobalt]

Yes

Let it work

[neon magnet]

okay, I'll have dinner meanwhile

[patent cobalt]

But check above about the project clean-up

Enjoy!

[neon magnet]

right

thanks

my days are -> non stop crashes, eat one meal, non stop crashes, sleep, non stop crashes ...

[patent cobalt]

4.27.1 is still a bit unstable but fairly decent

something may be corrupted in your project, hence the clean-up

--> Make a backup first, can't stress that enough

[neon magnet]

it's just so weird that UE5 which is a preview has never crashed lol

[patent cobalt]

Yes UE5 EA2 is also fairly stable

[plush yew]

is booleans ever a good idea in unreal engine? when you make a boolean it changes the uv map of your mesh, how destructive is the boolean in ue4

I feel like they could be useful but i also feel like it could really mess things up with udims

[faint bone]

so for simple actor bp, i will use actor as object. in my video i tried explaining that when i try this method cast is failing. also im not doing overlap, im simply showing a actor default variable i.e bullets of my weapon bp to my hud widget. can you please see the video and tell where im wrong.

[spare osprey]

Can we clean dervied data cache of specific project?

[rocky epoch]

I do not know, but there is method to store DDC separately in the project folder

[patent cobalt]

@faint bonewatched your video. You have few mix-ups on your understanding of classes, actors etc.

So you are equipping your pawn with different weapons. I guess you are attaching them as components or as child actors.

Each weapon has an ammo count, which you want to show in your HUD.

[neon magnet]

@patent cobalt seems like nothing was wrong after verification. No message or anything.

I feel this might just be down to 4.27 branch ... because until 4.26 I had VERY FEW such crashes and this project started life in 4.25 or 4.26

actually maybe even 4.24

[patent cobalt]

@faint bone There are two ways to go about it. Either you create a base class for all your weapons, which has the ammo count in it, so your HUD can simply check for an attached weapon and get the ammo count from the base class. Or you can use a generic reference to actor to retrieve a weapon, cast to the specific weapon, then get its ammo count. This is a bit what you seem to be doing at the moment. Your problem may be that the attached weapon is not an actor, is a component (e.g. a static mesh component), so you cannot cast from actor to component. Instead you can use a reference to generic component (e.g. scene component) and cast that one to your weapon. So the questions are: 1. what is the base class of your weapons? and 2. how do you attach your weapons to the pawn? As components or as child actors?

[neon magnet]

the 4.26 version of the project is fine in 5 EA2 so really anything 4.27 and it's all muddy

[patent cobalt]

@neon magnetdid you go through the project clean-up step?

[neon magnet]

nope, I checked only now

but a few weeks back I did delete the intermediates and saved folders when someone suggested that back then

and it seemed to have worked but within a few hours it was as if nothing changed

[stray drift]

What does the "shared cache not in use, performance may be impacted" mean? Just that shaders etc will have to compile as they are not version controlled?

[patent cobalt]

@neon magnetwhat you can also try is to Migrate all levels (and referenced assets) in your project to a brand new empty one and see if that fixes it

[neon magnet]

The current project is exactly that 😄

it's a migration to a brand new project

and just like before, it worked for a while and then bam

[patent cobalt]

@stray driftwhen working in a team setup you can place the cache on a shared network drive so everyone can take advantage of it

@neon magnetok then it must be corrupting is some weird way

[neon magnet]

I just don't get why it's core-related things that were just verified

it's often slate ui

or graph something

and the internet is littered with these same crash errors with no solutions

[stray drift]

Makes sense, cheers. It's just 2 people ATM so not worth the effort. Plus the internet here sucks anyway lol

[faint bone]

i can't create simple base class, as i want to have different ammo, base damage and total ammo count for different weapon, so to display it properly for each weapon, im spawning them as actor, join it to component (static mesh) and then in hud cast directly to different weapon actor bp to show updated ammo on runtime.

[raw field]

Hi there !
Sorry to bother you, but I've searched everywhere else (forums, answers) and couldn't find anything to solve my Swarm Agent issue.

Problem : I cannot build Lighting except for very small scenes (Templates maps, for example). However, as soon as the scene is a little bit more complex than that, Swarm Agent makes my PC crash. Monitors go black (no input), every other device is frozen (keyboard NumLock key led does not turn on/off for example, Razer's lights are off) and even the front power switch of the PC case does not respond. I have to turn off the switch of the computer power supply unit.

The crash occurs after a bit a computation. Building Light percentage is usually between 0 and 3.

PC is AMD Ryzen 9 5950X on Asus Crosshair VIII Hero WiFi mobo, 32 Go RAM, GeForce RTX 3070, Windows 10.

I've tried to :

• Clean and Validate Cache
• EnableStandaloneMode
• Reinstall UE4 Extras
• Build with different versions (4.26, 4.27, 5.0)
• update to different versions of GC drivers
• Disable antivirus and Windows firewall
• Update Windows and dotNet.

Example of Log from crash build

[patent cobalt]

@faint boneI still believe what you describe can (and should) be done with a good base class, but just to play along, can you show how you attach the weapon to your pawn after having spawned it as actor.

[spare osprey]

Yeah. I sadly kept all in single directory and now i have tons of useless cache lol

[rocky epoch]

Don't worry I only started to use project specific cache for a few months only :D
It takes up more space though, but it is better if you working on multiple project and have a weaker cpu.

Also it makes sense if you have projects on different drives.

[hidden dew]

Do you have Incredibuild installed?

[rocky epoch]

Although I am still not convinced if I will continue to use it.

[hidden dew]

Or any versions of Visual Studio (even versions you don't use with this Unreal project) that have Incredibuild installed?

I had similar -- not the same but similar issues -- with Swarm and lighting building

Finding Incredibuild installed in VS2017, and uninstalling it, fixed the issue

[faint bone]

here simple attach actor to component. but my problem is with casting.

[raw field]

@hidden dew I am not sure if I have Incredibuild installed. I do have VS 2019 installed

[patent cobalt]

@faint boneyes, I understand your problem. When a casting doesn't work there are two possibilities 1. the reference you are trying to cast is null, 2. the reference you are trying to cast has no relationship (so it is not a child or a parent) of the class your are casting it to

So do an IsValid check before your cast so we rule out number 1 and focus on number 2

[hidden dew]

Tools --> Tools & Features
For every VS installation you have, click Modify.
Then on the right, look for Incredibuild

It's under "Game Development with C++"

Make sure it's unticked. If it's ticked, untick it and VS will go through the process of removing it

[plush yew]

question - I have ghost entity animation, character and basic enemy ai. Is it all I need to create character in horror game? Basically you walk around the woods and enemy is just cruisin around

[hidden dew]

This might not be your problem, but causes so many problems anyway that it's worth axing (You can Google a lot of headaches related to Swarm & Incredibuild)

[raw field]

Incredibuild is not ticked, too bad 😄

[hidden dew]

Damn :/

And no other VS versions on your system?

[raw field]

Nope, it's the only one

[hidden dew]

Unfortunately it's too far over my head to help any further than that :/

Nice try though, thanks for trying ! 😉

[hidden dew]

Bug I am getting a lot. Deleting that selected pin crashes the editor (that's running via VS solution).

[marble mist]

What tutorials do you recommend to make an fps?

[drowsy snow]

I'm not recommending tutorials on YouTube (I have yet to found actually good one), but you can learn a LOT from classic Doom.

[marble mist]

And where do you recommend me to see your tutorials or something is that I want to learn to do shooters and I don't know how xd

[steady vale]

@noble tapir about this, i also have the problem, i am trying to make something like minecraft where i would like to wrap different textures on each side of the face, how were u able to do it?

[plush yew]

cant believe its been 5 months

both 4.26 and ue5 and no significant updates

does this mean something big is coming around the corner

[drowsy snow]

4.26 is done.
4.27.2 is on the works.

[plush yew]

4.26 has had some pretty big updates the last few months hoodie guy

the most impressive being the raytracing translucency features

they have a few things in 4.26 planned to be fixed as well on the roadmap

so its not done not yet

[drowsy snow]

Isn't that under 4.27?

[plush yew]

i thought it came to both

or it could be that feature is only accesible through 4.26 caustics branch

which for some reason nobody uses

hi all, having issues with blended materials using megascans assets, not importing the displacement. I'm manually working around it by dragging the displacements in to each of the layers, but still having wonky issues when painting blends:

I am always getting this error message on the blend mat, not sure if it's related though or how to fix it:

just wondering if anyones experienced the above, if it's an issue or I'm being stupid

[raw field]

@hidden dew Issue solved. In case someone else report the problem and you're here to help, my solution was to update Visual Studio (not really sure it did anything, but who knows) and (probably mostly) update the BIOS firmware.

[real moth]

Guys I made quite a big project, and forgot to use source control. I want to put it online so I could download it on a new computer at some point. I have setup github for the project and have the relevant git ignore. My project is trying to push 20,000+ objects which is going to take years. Is there a better way to do this or do I just be patient?

[plush yew]

Looking for some advice, is there a way to "replicate a function" over the network?

All tutorials seem to work with custom events

But my game is very reliant on objects calling functions of other objects, all of which I'd like to replicate

[terse zealot]

Any additional objects you don't need to push?
Otherwise yes you have to wait if you want to use source control.

[real moth]

Ah okay thanks Ill have to do it over night then or something

[real moth]

also

its only writing at 80kb/s

is that normal?

[terse zealot]

Lots of small files perhaps?
Git LFS might help with binary assets, but I personally run into issues with it and GitHub charges a lot for it

[raw field]

@real moth Did you ignore all unecessary files and directories ? (Binaries, Build, Intermediate, Saved)

[real moth]

this is what the git ignore came with, should I add anything else?>

[real moth]

is there a better source control? or anything you could recommend?

[terse zealot]

Unreal uses Perforce mostly, but I personally use Git for my projects

[terse zealot]

Ultimately the best thing is to remove any content or assets you don't need, those usually take up the most space

[real moth]

Okay I will remove anything I dont use

then ill test it

as I do have paragon assets which I imagine are quite large

[plush yew]

Does ue have any way to do some kind of “dynamic” damage like soft bodies? Thinking something along the lines of beamng drive

[mental tartan]

Hey guys, I've got a rather simple scene, just 6-8 poly planes, but they each have a video texture (.mp4) on them. I did a test and apart from the fact that render speed goes down considerably, there are a lot of dropped frames for each texture. I know, UE doesn't like to deal with lots of video textures, but my project needs it. Any idea how to make it behave better and - most importantly - avoid those drop frames? Thanks a lot for letting me know 🙂

[raw field]

@real moth It seems Ok to me.
Maybe you do have a lot of assets then, and you can indeed you use tools to remove unused ones.
If you don't have one, there are free python script you can run (multiple times in a row) to safely remove unused assets

i try to import building, all the props get imported, but walls doesn't, any ideas?

do I understand this right, if im not using baked lighting and using raytracing I do not need a skylight? Or does the skylight still serve a purpose idk what its used for in this case

[hasty fern]

Is anyone familiar with useing both uasset and uexp files. As I heard you can combine them into one file to be able to be used in a project again. I have uasset and uexp files from a old project and getting to use them again would be so helpful.

hey guys anyone got a sec

simple problem im having

the black edges of my sign arent displayed correctly

[restive flame]

Hey guys, got a quick question here...

1. If I'm making characters for a game, would it be better to simulate the character clothes and hair inside the Engine itself? Thanks.

[mental tartan]

Hey guys, I've got an issue with 'jerky' video playback in UE. In this test scene I'm using two simple polygon planes using .mp4 video files as textures. As you can see, they don't play back smoothly. The more geometry with video textures I'm adding, the worse this 'jerkiness' gets. Any idea how to fix this? I'm all ears! 🙂

[dreamy wasp]

Anyone know where save data is stored other than the SavedGames folder?
I am getting really frustrated.
I tested my game in the editor. The game auto saves.
I figured, it works, time to build, and upload.
I delete the Saved games in the [projectName]/Saved/SaveGames/ folder, and then play again in the editor, and it starts from the beginning.
So I build.
Then I test my build, but the build starts from the saved point, I got to when testing earlier.
How do I get rid of that? This is the first time this happened.
I can not upload a new build if its going to start 20% into the game.

[pallid carbon]

Hi everyone, im new to unreal engine and i have a couple of questions i would like to ask someone who knows what they're doing. I've asked in the correct channels but sadly don't really get anywhere, if someone could dm me that would be great

[dreamy wasp]

can you give a general idea what you're interested in knowing?

[pallid carbon]

My current issue that I'm having is setting up world composition. Well it's not really an issue, i just don't know if what i want to do is possible and how i would go about doing it, being very new still

I know how to setup world composition on a new level. However i have a level which i have already started and done some terrain generation on, and now i'd like to know if it's possible to enable world composition on a pre-existing level to enable collaboration

[hollow moat]

Just got banned from a discord server for asking if their marketplace asset was open source 🙃

[dreamy wasp]

wow..... yeah... that's above my head. I know there are plenty of Vidoe on YT about creating free roam worlds. Honestly you lost me at "World Composition" because that, to me, is just layout. Placing things in the world, where you want them to be.

[fierce tulip]

dont use the RGBA output, but the RGB output.
use A for mask/transparency stuff.
RGBA is mainly for more complex stuff.

[hidden dew]

Learning particles in UE for the first time... where should I be putting my attention? I see mention of "Cascade" and "Niagara". Should I be using one of them?

Just very basic particle stuff, not needing fanciness.

[bright sigil]

I think you figured this out, but it would be Lerp

[bright sigil]

both are rather intricate. Cascade is the "older" particle system where Niagara is the newer one

[rocky epoch]

Cascade is the old particle system, and will deprecated in UE5. Niagara is the new system, so it would worth to learn it instead.

[hidden dew]

ok, thanks

Either it's from incompatible/newer engine version, or it's coming from a packaged Unreal application.

[foggy trench]

yea it is coming from a packaged one

[drowsy snow]

Guessed it 😉
Yeah, you can't just load up .uasset from packaged Unreal app for good reasons, and there have been cases where one somehow lost the source files to his/her project, and only had surviving packaged build. If you're in the latter case, sad to say you're SOL.

[foggy trench]

😢

[plush yew]

is someone there with some experience in UE4 Multi user editing?

[plain void]

maybe somebody can help me from ruining my thanksgiving witha problem i'm facing here...the basis from my debugging is that in a blueprint, i'm creating an object, setting it as a value in a map/dict, then proceeding to set variables on that new object. This works as desired in the editor, but when I do a build, none of the variables are setting. So at the end of the execution chain, in the editor everything prints out fine, but in a packaged build, none of the variables are set. This is in blueprints by the way

[mint umbra]

Not sure where I would post lighting related issues, but does anyone have any recommendations on how I can achieve this set of lighting? Lol, I feel like the blandness of enabling the Alpha mode in vertex painting (no idea why it shades like that then) suits the project https://gyazo.com/07795eaba3824e1657dd6d779847f00a

[plush yew]

wait wtf

the metahumans underwear is part of the body

they actually toated this as a ultra realistic character creator and you can even change the clothing lol

this is almost as dumb as when they decided heightmaps were "deprecated" and removed the function entirely

[prime willow]

can you imagine the horror people who feel when they see whats under a models ken doll body for the first time ;-;

they did to protect us i swearsies no person should know what lies behind the underwear until their 1000 years old

[broken shadow]

Today I built a structure.

I feel accomplished, or something.

[plush yew]

i dont think it was out of censorship, if that was it they would have just made the body smooth like a barbie, they didnt paint textures for gens and at that point there is no way someone could hold it to any discrepancy of censorship. I feel as if the underwear mesh and normals were made to limit the use of their product as they hold full license over it and would be able to claim more revenue over any projects making use of the metahumans

[prime willow]

i am very prroud of you

step by step youre acheiving your dream ❤️

[plush yew]

epic games is a buisness dont be fooled into thinking money doesnt come before artistry it definitely does and should always

[broken shadow]

The struct I put together is meant to gather the state of my character's movement input axes and the pawn's rotation

The goal is to set things up so that my character's world direction of acceleration is always offset from the character's rotation by 15 degrees or so

[prime willow]

maybe idk :3

[prime willow]

that sounds really weird but kinda cool please share a clip when you have it at a desireable state pls ❤️

[broken shadow]

and to make it work correctly I need to track...

• Move Forward Axis value
• Move Right Axis Value
• Pawn Pitch (if I'm flying)
• Pawn Yaw (for regular all movement modes)
• Control Pitch (If I'm flying)
• Control Yaw (for all movement modes)

If you've ever played ARK: Survival Evolved or used the mounted movement system of Guild Wars 2, you'll know what I'm going for

Where characters/creatures have a turning circle to help make them feel like they're maintaining momentum

Instead of just immediately accelerating in the direction of WASD/your left thumbstick

[prime willow]

sounds like breathe of the wild mount stuff but i wouldnt know x3

[broken shadow]

A lot of games tend to have mounts working like that

Functionally it's not too differenet from handling a car, except in the fancier systems the steed will try to turn in place before running off somewhere

Guild Wars 2 has this, if my camera's pointed more than 45 degrees away from where my mount's looking, the creature will turn in place until he's facing the direction you want to go.

So that way he doesn't shoot off a cliff because of momentum.

So far the really difficult part of what I'm doing is determining when to make the direction of acceleration be a positive or negative value

[hoary geyser]

my editor got extremely slow after updating my drivers, does any 1 have any idea how to fix this?

nvm

its working lol

Hey guys, just starting out with unreal and was curious if making a 2d game kinda like blockheads or terraria would be a good start, will obv be very simple compared to those but wdy think

Like i messed with the 3d stuff abut 2 years ago but it was basic

[bright sigil]

you can check a variable if you are setting one for crouched, as somehow there is logic to change to it

also, question. I don't have this problem in UE4, but in UE5, I can't get rid of video memory has been exhausted warning. Any tips? I keep checking my task manager for performance on my GPU Nvidia GE Force (essentially a gaming PC), and I only have small landscape without any textures on it and it's already shows I exceeded 708+MB over budget. On UE4 I was using high resolution (4K+) on 2048x2048 landscape and no issue. I am not lagging when running play mode. Any advise or tips are very welcome, thank you.

this is what I am seeing in an empty project. As in, new empty project with nothing added to it.

I am already starting with over budget 😦 lol, it's a bit frustrating

[narrow igloo]

which Nvidia gpu? ue5 specs are a 1080 or higher. i also had that warning on one of my pc's with a 1050. thats to be expected when running under spec. just becuase its a gaming pc doesnt mean its powerful enough for unreal, lol. that 1050 pc is a beast most of the time, but ue5 kills it.

Hey fellas. I have a datatable with just text and wav file. I want to increase its functionality and add few extra rows to it. But im curious - does all those rows referenced in memory or only when im using find row node?

[plush yew]

i got this pack, but it has very low fps, like 20-25, not many lights in the scene, but graphics seem to be very detailed - any ideas how to increase fps or maybe what to lower down?

[warm salmon]

U cud reduce the scalability

From epic to high, Medium or low

It increases

Fps

But the details go away

[plush yew]

it has only 4 lights, but I think lots of post process is what drags it down

where can I change scalability?

• 9 lights

[warm salmon]

Or if u know wot is causing the issue u can turn that off

[plush yew]

thx, scalability works

doesn't look that bad

[warm salmon]

Ya ik

[warm salmon]

Np

[regal mulch]

If your hardware is meant to handle this then it might just be poorly optimized

[plush yew]

yeah it should

[regal mulch]

If you really want to know what is so pricey you could extend your knowledge by learning how to profile

[plush yew]

map is not big either

it's the sunlight

[regal mulch]

Maybe they upped some settings to have a nice preview scene :P

[plush yew]

yeah lol

that's what got me

i was thinking about refund even

but the desert scene is way too good

😂

[regal mulch]

Before you refund stuff like this always contact the seller and ask

If they can't or don't help, you can easily refund anyway

[plush yew]

yeah will do

well it uses dynamic lighting instead of static

[warm salmon]

That doesn't cause a issue on performance

At least I think

The foliage does

Due to LODs

hey all, I'm in the middle of designing a camera system for a third-person character. Some time ago I heard that it's often better to use a separate camera actor instead the classical target arm component setup. What are the reasons?

[amber shuttle]

separate camera is used if you want to switch to first person

[drifting elbow]

or is it just a matter of taste?

hm, ok

well, now that I think about it, some games would also benefit from not having the camera system directly inside the character blueprint, imagine you have multiple different characters you can possess

[amber shuttle]

yea but theres no point making a camera without spring arm for third person character 🤔

[regal totem]

i need help

give me ideas of simple retarded mobile games

[drifting elbow]

yeah, but iirc a spring arm is also just a socket at the end of a trace

[amber shuttle]

dont make those

[drifting elbow]

are you addicted to making games that you are desperately asking strangers for ideas? 🤔

[amber shuttle]

Does wrapping a static mesh in a blueprint add any noticeable overhead compared to just using the static meshes?

Or is 1 BP with many static mesh components going to be considerably faster

someboy can help me how can i shot this input with the left button mouse too, not only gamepad cause with the mouse does not work, i dont know why? what more i must configurate in the blueprint? thank you so much

[hidden dew]

That's odd. Do any other mouse inputs work at all? Does your machine have more than 1 pointing device? (touchpad, etc)

---

Niagara very basic qn:
I can take the fountain template and change its settings and see results just fine.
Except collision.
I add collision to the particles and it's as if I've done nothing.

[pearl minnow]

is it possible to orient the skysphere differently? I'd like sunset / sunrise to be at zenith / straight down

[clever bone]

are there any alternatives to using a stencil? I want to create mask from a scene texture, but I went a smooth transition and not a harsh stencil.

[pearl minnow]

rotate sky by 90 degress basically - im not trying to create a normal day / night cycle but rotate the entire skysphere

[short vine]

is not hardware bro xd, the mouse work in the game very good i configurated the mouse to open the doors and grab items and works very well, i just made a proyectile or shot a weapon with line trace, but insted change it with sphere tracer and shoot good but with only with gamepad left shoulder and i want with the mouse left button shoot too bro xd.

[hidden dew]

Very weird

Can't think of any other guesses :/

Perhaps it's "InputAction"

No

wait

Ignore me

Hey everyone, whenever I import files into unreal I'm greeted with 'no skeletal mesh' I then apply the right mesh but lose all materials and textures?

Is this normal?

[mellow turret]

It's a choice, but doesn't answer why my issue is happening

[short vine]

lol bro, so i thik is something about in the blue print configurate it to the mouse can shoot that,s what i want resolve xd but i dont know what i need to configurate in the blue print?

[hidden dew]

No ideas I'm afraid. Since you say your other mouse commands are working, it's got me stumped

[short vine]

i would chance sphere tracer with line tracer by channel and see if it works thanks bro.

[hidden dew]

gl

[short vine]

i changed the blueprint and nothing xd, the weird thing is that i added any keyboard button in the input and works shoot, i dont know what happen? lol

[sharp crest]

how can I make it so when I use the Foliage Painter on static meshes, it doesn't place foliage there and not under there if there is landscape?

Right now I have static mesh disabled in the filter but then it just places the trees on the landscape that's below the static mesh...

[hidden dew]

Oh, does something else in another blueprint also listen to the LMB?

If multiple things are listening to the same input, only one will obey

But then again, that still wouldn't explain it

If that was the problem, the gamepad wouldn't work either

... So I still have no idea

[short vine]

yeah bro with the game pad and the mouse i can open the door, grab items, and move the camera turn rate and look up with both mandos, mouse and gamepad i configurate that, but why it cant shoot the event he take photo and do the others thing lol, so anyway bro i would try solve this thank you so much bro you tried 😀

[hidden dew]

Sounds like a pretty annoying puzzle

My current bug:
The little cube particles are meant to be coming out of the cone in a line along the ground.
But as soon as I tell the cone to run fast, about half of the cubes start to create themselves higher in the air until they're as high as in the pic... a bit like a kite.

I know it's connected to gravity and collision

[hollow moat]

Who loves procedural building generation ❤️

just ran some input latency tests on a lot of 3d engines, sad to say Unreal performed the worst. I got ~17-23ms for every other engine and ~42-50 for Unreal, and all the way up to ~80 ms if I used the Vulkan renderer. Are there any settings I could try changing to get better response times?

I tried both deferred and forward

[high bolt]

@distant marsh Go to engine scalability settings and turn down ?

Test in standalone game and not PIE?

like center the lights, meshes

from one angle it looks centered, from another it's off

Does anyone know how to export a texture from Quixel Mixer to Bridge?

nvm, found free plugin at marketplace lol

[hidden dew]

Would anyone perhaps have any insight on this? I've just started messing with Niagara tonight.
The intent is simply to have a trail of those green "pea" particles spawning behind the moving cone "character". They should spawn, then gravity pulls them downwards and they should collide with the giant white default sphere this is all happening on.

As you can see, things behave as intended when the character is moving slowly.
But when it moves fast, the peas start to spawn higher and higher, semi-randomly but in long stretches. They'll even keep spawning up there for a few seconds after the character has stopped (can be seen in the gif).

I only know that it's due to collision. Turn that off and the issue goes away. But they're spawning so far away from the thing they're colliding with, I don't know what to look into. Could there be some known gotchas around this? Using Ray Trace collision in Niagara. Mesh particles, scaled by 0.01. Playing with the Collision module's values for Collision Radius unexpectedly makes no difference... whether I scale it by 100 or by 1.

I can shrink the planet radius by 50 units, or raise the character by 50 units, same issue. Extend that to 500 units, no issue. So it feels very collision-y... but not sure how to address it.

[pearl minnow]

let's say.. hypothetically someone wanted to map one video on 40 cubes at the same time, would you make one media texture and use textcoord to position them all?

not 40x the same thing, more like a jigsaw

[trim mantle]

Yeah, better that then to have 40 source players work at the same time

[pearl minnow]

ok nice thanks im really green with unreal just checking

[trim mantle]

• I would rather play around with UV channels in Blender to change texture position

That would require more unique meshes thou

But better control then to have it set by hand in 40 material instances

[pearl minnow]

ok cool - i dont make any of the keyboard keys myself tho its a loop, all the correct meshes and colors are determined by a simple incrementor, so i guess i could use that to pass in correct parameters to texture thingy

[trim mantle]

That could work, but still, if you do not do custom work on the UVs (unless you already have the edges handled differently) the meshes can look weird

Or you can just do an angle cutoff with shader math

But that is up to you

[pearl minnow]

i take notes of this and think more when i get to actually doing it thanks

[prime willow]

@regal totem My advice for you would be to start small until you understand what youre doing

map out your plan core systems, functions, game pillars, and the rest

the identity of your game and what key parts must remain if you want you idea to blossom as intended

in a document like words or even on paper and notebooks irl

doesnt have to be 1000+ pages long like mine with crazy detail

[regal totem]

You mean I need to keep the game a secret

[prime willow]

it can be simple sentences in a list form

nope not even that

just to make sure you map out your game or at least key points before starting on it

i have a 1000+ map with hundreds of artworks and personal concept arts drawn myself

and sometimes i get a little fuzzy or mixed up

a map helps keep you on the road

it can be as simple or complex as you like but just a foundation youre working towards

[bright sigil]

sounds like this is meant to be a commercial hit success, better to have a couple of lessers out before, best to learn in those contexts to know how to make it a commercial success

[prime willow]

find systems you like and functions that work well together and see where that takes you

[prime willow]

What he said ^

start small build from there

[regal totem]

Wow👏 👏 👏

I'm out of words

Legit idk what to say

[prime willow]

and be very careful about feature creep

[regal totem]

Just thank you

[prime willow]

i fall victim to it too often and have to constantly refer to my stupid large map xD

if you want to be a part of this industry long term understand you might not even make a single dollars for a year or even three

its along term investment and commitment not a quick fortnite clone mass fortune maker

if that was the case we'd all be rich :3

[regal totem]

My plan is to pull out few mobile games that will generate income slow as i work on the main project

[prime willow]

and if you buy assets on the marketplace make sure you wait until a sale for the most part theres always a 50+% off sale around the corner and free content given away monthly

more reason to start small and build from there

[drowsy snow]

I personally won't hold my breath on mobile games, but if you had the luck, then you can make crap ton of money from a clicker game.

[prime willow]

try working on optimization and stabilty in your first few mobile games and build larger from there

a smart man doesnt fight a monoply he finds a ventured past off to the side that no one has tackled in quite a long time

[regal totem]

I wanna do that with my main game . I wanna give people what they ask for. I see this games now only lie to the fans

[prime willow]

giving me a headstart in a good genre which no one wants to touch or fails miserably trying to do what failures did befor ethem

yup game devs dont seem to understand giving people what they want means free money

the gaming industry is the only one i can think of

where people violently scream at you to give you their money whilst telling you that'll make them give you there money

[drowsy snow]

What kind of twist can you give from that kind of stuff?

[prime willow]

just weed out the idiots and follow the dollars and ideas that come with it

im not trying to fix it i just wanna know why unreal would read faces flipped

is weird mane

[bright sigil]

tough to say, it could be something with importing problems. Had you deleted the imported asset and tried a clean export from blender?

any setting on import that's doing it?

[drowsy snow]

That's certainly uncommon.
Unless the material somehow flipped the normals.

[fierce tulip]

I blame blender in this case, many people have problem with blender flipping the normals visually

[bright sigil]

I agree it obviously should not be this way, so there's something doing it somewhere that you would have access to, either blender or unreal

[drowsy snow]

In my 4 years of interchangeably using both Blender and UE, I never encounter flipped normal issue like that before, and I've done a lot of import/export.

[bright sigil]

could be negative scale (unreal or blender), some import setting, something applied via blender, material, lots of guesses

[fierce tulip]

discord-search "flip normals blender" and at least one person has same kinda issues.

[drowsy snow]

Granted, it's 3 years less to write home about, but still, I never had such issue before. Not even sure what can cause that.

Gotta cross check Unreal's import settings, they're not resetting back to the defaults automatically.

but if i wanted the range and strength of how hard or fast the dodge occurs

changeable

would multi-directional impulse with changeable varaibles for impulse be the right option?

[drowsy snow]

I think dodge/dash stuff is mostly root motion, not impulse.

[prime willow]

but couldnt you use impulse to give it that bursting push like system and customize how much or far via varabiles under iumpulse?

than use whatever it takes to make the animation play in place followed by the pushing occuring due to impulse

[bright sigil]

I have seen both, and there is the consideration for rolling into walls or other collision aspects. I think I understand partly why you want impulse driven, this also means not making animations right away. This is moving the player through physics, which has never been a fun area for me, so I assume difficulties getting the impulse method working without some oddities

[prime willow]

well i wanted a bit of physic based movements in my game

as i also want to have a momentum sort of gauge

where functions get additional stuff based on momentum amount

and i feel as silly as it may sound that if a dodge has a certain amount of range but physics can make it go even further it would be very complex and filled with dpeth on how a player can use this

to be faster and more vicious with their movement

let alone combining that with wall running smoothe animation transitions and zip lining :3

[grave coyote]

i am having an issue with unreal while rendering.

does anyone know what the problem could be

[prime willow]

check your dilation settings

its saying theres something wrong with its makeup or work

the output part in particular

[bright sigil]

sounds like a lot of physics that the player can perform, it seems this is the nature then: to allow player different affects on how they manipulate their collider capsule. what of the sort is currently working?

[grave coyote]

@prime willow ,ok still on it.but also my preview on the render is showing something very different from the camera selected

[prime willow]

im not good at rendering stuff but from your error i would believe youre problem is the way your output is setup

the middle part of the error i would re-evaluate it and come back

[prime willow]

sorry give me a second before i read that i have the worst headache me and yuki had quite the run a bit ago

[drowsy snow]

What's the real symptom, and what you're trying to do?

[prime willow]

Currently i have one direction based sliding working

but its a little finicky on mid air use i can debug that later

but i really really like how it turned out

where running and wall running into slide will push the slide a little furher than standard

and i want that manipulatiable type of movement to be standard

esepcially siince i want a super mobile type of combat game

not phone wise but movement focused

[bright sigil]

might want to take a page out of Overgrowth's approach - the movement of the player is a sphere for its early development since it's all about physical (read: physics) manipulation of the player. Later on, the developer adds in the character mesh as the next problem to solve, since all achievable motion has be mathematically solved. And if you don't know of this game, the dev has shared a lot of his methods and design considerations in talks, blogs, etc.

The default unreal player character already has some physics stuff going on that I think gets in the way for your needs. I'm sure this not what you want to hear, to start from scratch vs. what you have. This approach would merit a robust dedication of time creating the framework since it would be so different from the usual Unreal character (although the ball template might be a good starting point, minus the rotating ball part).

[prime willow]

wait what

i just want momentum to carry on character moment based on their physical weight lol and size

and maybe some systems like zip lining sprint, wall run slide you know things that make the body move more or differently vaulting even

currently i have the movement system working just no real momentum to it when its working

would i need to start over to try implementing that?

[bright sigil]

that is up to you. If I understand the goal, it is to have quite a bit of character mobility with momentum, i.e. physics. I've not had great luck in implementing physics reliably on the pre-existing character - fps, third person - ALS is a thing, so there's obviously a way.

[prime willow]

ah i see o.o

[bright sigil]

The movement system is part of the character setup, but additional moment, like jumping is also coded with physics updates, so i don't know how deep that would entail for other such mobility features

[tepid helm]

Hi , is there a way to make dynamic shadows quality get better despite being far from camera? I'm using a very small fov for artistic reasons and it looks awful because of that

[bright sigil]

i would not toss anything that you have based on what i say, grain of salt, but maybe check out other games and how they've done this to consider what's possible for your current state of things

[prime willow]

i see

okie

[bright sigil]

have you played with the settings for the light?

[prime willow]

i really want a movement that seems simple and straight forward but with a little effort and tactics/skill can feel probably cooler than being spiderman visually on a mechanical level

[tepid helm]

yeah I tried, but nothing seems to determine the multiplier for how shadows decrease the value with distance or something

at least nothing that I used

[bright sigil]

well, the default character movement is not to my liking, it's floaty, hard to control, etc. and for a few days, I spent the time to simply adjust all of those variables to get it close to what I feel is ideal. This would be one aspect you are referring to, but the addition of features must be coded somehow

[prime willow]

yeah im using a parkour component setup that i have tweaked and warped drastically to feel like a runner sort of setup

https://tenor.com/view/parkour-jumping-gif-8700756

it feels and looks alot like this to a degree

granted i dont have a roll on landing during sprint

and my vaulting is a bit buggy atm

[bright sigil]

i apologize for the detraction then, try the impulse method and see how that fairs

[plush yew]

does anyone know how to export a quixel Mixture texture to ue4?

i exported it to bridge and it looks fine and all

but when i try to export it to ue4, only the materials are their but not the main texture itself if that makes sense

[prime willow]

hopefully it works as intended xD

[bright sigil]

same, and good luck, i would be curious to know how you solve it 🙂

[prime willow]

ill definitely note the process down and make it in a digestable manner so i can share it when its at a really solid point

thank you for the assists so far youre truly appreciatted~

i wont pull my punches if i see something stupid :/

[hidden dew]

Fun built-in function name

[stable path]

What?

Is that for real

[hidden dew]

Yeah, from a Niagara Particle System

[short vine]

someboy help me how can i start a new level with the inventory that i got in the level before? thank you so much.

[bright sigil]

changing level clears most information. Game instance is persistent on level changes and is usually the glass to store things that are needed between levels.

[hidden dew]

Niagara problem:
Green pea particles are set to emit from the white cone (on the right) and fall and collide with the green/white sphere (the ground) shown.

As can be seen, when the white cone is travelling fast, the particles start to emit from a point significantly higher than the cone. Semi-random (it occurs on and off but in groups).

Definitely related to collision. Won't occur with a flat cube as the ground, but does occur with a sphere. Won't occur if the cone is 100+ units away from the collider, but does occur even when the cone is clearly clear of the collider (50 units away still produces the issue).

Results should look like this (results of when travelling slow):

Is even Ray Trace collision with Niagara particles not really reliable?

I would make a guess that sometimes a particle is emitted and it thinks it's already hitting the collision body, so it's immediately displaced

But it still occurs even when the point of emission is so unreasonably far from the collider's surface that it's unusable

[loud meadow]

hi

can someone help me

[drowsy snow]

Make whatever actor/component you're attaching to be movable.

[loud meadow]

i didn t understand

ok

i found the probleme

but the camera quality is bad

[glacial bay]

Anyone know why playing a game in the editor uses more and more RAM each time you play/test? ATM my UE is using 12gb of RAM because I've been opening and closing the play preview to test my game, is there a fix other than restarting UE completely?

[hidden dew]

If I'm pressing Play in the editor and things are fine, then building a Shipping package and that gives me the character-less disembodied camera, what am I doing wrong?

Maps and Modes has the intended pawn set as Default Pawn class.
PlayerStart is set to auto receive input and works with the editor.

It's starting on the correct (and only) level

The default game mode set has the correct Default Pawn Class

[tender pecan]

Is it possible your "PlayerStart actor" in the scene is perhaps not positioned correctly? Or maybe there is something in the way when it tries to spawn your character

[hidden dew]

Hmm yes

It's definitely intersecting a thing, but that's what I'm wanting to test it turns out

I'll give that a try anyway

[tender pecan]

so if anything intersects your character on spawn, it will do that.

[hidden dew]

But still work fine in PIE?

[tender pecan]

yeah possibly, you can also have play from current camera position in editor.

try moving it and see.

maybe its something else.

[hidden dew]

Hmm that wasn't it

Positioning is listening to player start

But the pawn isn't appearing

It's something simple surely

All I can think of is "Check Default Pawn Class"

oh wtf

Ok

I've been editing some other not-saved level 😐

Wait! No, that's wrong

Correct level

bah

[tender pecan]

Anything useful in the log? maybe it tells you the game mode it is using, or the pawn it is spawning, if you are building debug build, you may get some useful info out of it, or you can always add it yourself to an actor start somewhere and debug the game mode

[whole solar]

when i put the water

this happens

i made like 7 differ projects

and leverls

its still the same

can yall help me

[hidden dew]

That's probably it

[tender pecan]

well look at that. logs do help. 😆 nice one.

[hidden dew]

heheh

Thanks for the pointer

Still that natural aversion to digging out logs

I much prefer pressing everything until I find the magical secret "Just work" button

Built, yep that was it

ta

Right

It appears that when you relocate a GameMode file, whatever relies on its location doesn't get updated

You don't need the Blueprints folder, but if you make a GameMode in that folder that's where it has to stay

Wow, you can't even rename a GameMode

Even though the Project Settings do update to reflect the new name

This is within the editor, and is only a BP project.

[delicate kayak]

Hi. How should I be making my buildings and rooms to my game. In unreal or using something like blender/MAYA?

[tender pecan]

Use Unreal to build levels. I mean that is why it has an editor to begin with.

But build your floors, walls and props in blender, then bring them into ue and move them around to make levels.

[plush yew]

Does unreal engine use ecs

[plush yew]

so guys i have few doubts but before that have u guys ever faced like this situation, where you are the only one working in c++ in your project or at office, and the rest of team is working in BluePrints

like how to work in that environment like for example you have make health system and you know how to do in c++ and you did it , but now team also have to work on that so how they will work?

if wants to go some changes or anything from that how they will change and upgrade it?

every time they have to come to me?

[drowsy snow]

Seems like you never heard of Blueprint related meta tags in UPROPERTY and UFUNCTION before.

Remember that C++ can supplement BPs.

[plush yew]

no i didnt

[drowsy snow]

UFUNCTION(BlueprintCallable)
void ApplyDamage(int Damage);

[plush yew]

oo you mean @drowsy snow like creating my c++ and convert into blueprint

[drowsy snow]

No.

I mean exposing stuff from C++ to be used by BP.

[plush yew]

ya i know that

will that works?

[drowsy snow]

This is one example on how to make function that's callable by BP.

[plush yew]

ok i got your point

so u mean i will make with bp callable thing and let team use that right? in other things am i right?

[drowsy snow]

UPROPERTY(BlueprintReadWrite, EditAnywhere)
FString PlayerName;

This one will expose the variable into BP, and allowing for changes to the variable in BP.

[plush yew]

but now we already have a game which is Fully done in bp, but half is completed and i joined new to this project

how am i able to work ?

[drowsy snow]

Better ask your project manager on the specific stuff.
But generally you can expect at least translating several BP functions, enums, and struct into C++, while still make them accessible by BP for ease of debugging.

Also you'd better let BPs handle any sort of asset loading, and pass the result into the C++ function, as doing the same thing purely in C++ is a total pain in the arse.

[plush yew]

ok

[delicate kayak]

how do i move vertices without moving others?

[delicate kayak]

nvm figured it out

[short vine]

thanks bro i just want mi cameroid and the flashlight in others levels that is all xd

Why there is no C++ template for VR? Is there a good community template that is compatible with the Oculus Quest 2?

Store the original location in a variable. At the end you can directly set it's location with that variable, or lerp it back over time.

did you enable edit layers on the landscape?

did you enable affect landscape on the water actor?

did you follow one of the hundred tutorials about water plugin?

[autumn flame]

Did you consider using anything else but that spawn of satan?

[opaque bronze]

Well by default you're limited to like 4km by 4km before you notice floating error starting

you can use client rebasing to alleviate that, but that is not a 100% perfect solution and it can freeze the games too

but you can go pretty far without double-precision, Qanga a game in development that I tested a bit before switching to UE5 allowed you to go extremly far with client rebasing, the problems were that this rebasing freezed the game 2/3sec the furthest you've went, and it didn't cover every case, e.g particles were broken etc

now they switched to UE5 with LWC and it is perfectly smooth

[past stag]

what is lwc? and does ue5 now use double precision for physics and positions?

[opaque bronze]

large world coordinates is the new feature in UE5.1 that allows switching to double-precision for physics and positions

yep, but only UE 5.1 (ue5-main branch on github) for now, AFAIK the UE 5.0 branch don't have it but it may change before release

[hollow trench]

---

Hey peeps. I have two questions and have no idea where to ask else. Maybe some of you have a suggestion. It might also be complete nonsense so please feel free to tell me if my question and ideas are nuts:

I am building a little n00bie data table and wonder what it the best action when it comes to ItemIDs and naming.

Example: I have an Apple. This is an item that gets a consumable flag, etc. nothing wild.

Its item ID is named Apple and the Item Name is Apple.

In my thoughts, that Apple should be grey and have no coloring. On purpose, because I may want to have red apples, green apples, or even a golden apple which is going to be a non consumable collectible item made of gold.

Questions:

a) Would it be good to create AppleRed, AppleGreen, AppleGolden, all having their flags and values set to their unique appearance and use?

b) What would you do if you have an AppleRed with its base name "Red Apple", but lets say a Game Master inside that game would rename an ingame Apple into "Blue Apple" and colors it blue >> Could it be stored into that Data Table as a new item or would it better to handle it outside of the game.

c) Is it allowed to have multiple ItemIDs called "Apple" but with unique names

@mental void You have a little list up there. I am not sure if "Ventana" is Windows? But there you may find your World Outliner

[hollow trench]

@mental void A little tip from my side as a German user: Keep your applications like UE4 in English language. Its easier to handle, especially when watching tutorials.

[mental void]

oh, do u guys know how to change language?

[hollow trench]

In the menu bar of the Editor, click Edit > Editor Preferences. In the Editor Preferences dialog, under General, click Region and Language. Click the dropdown next to Preview Game Language and select the language you want to preview.

[mental void]

ohh, dont know how i missed that, thanks!

[prime willow]

@drowsy snow Really stupid question

how would i sense a characters state their in

Could i use a box collision that overlaps with the attacking or defending character

link their current state

than pick which attack or defending function should occur

oh gush

better yet could you use a box collision with a trace direction in the direction of function and when the othe rplayers overlapping box overlaps they figure out what their in the middle of >_>

[drowsy snow]

I'd just get the state from the attack trace's hit result.

[prime willow]

but what if i wanted to have an action occur before a function connects to the chracter body for exmaple

like this https://gyazo.com/faf01471d5bf2558c337c53be23a2cbe

or this https://gyazo.com/87857b2391dabe5a5d94a14b6452e7f0
