[plush yew]

oh

thats to imforn the player to press a key when you are close to an item

[light prairie]

because if it's not being created at all, that's the issue

[plush yew]

this is why I need to be solo

lmfao

fuck group projects

especially with edgy college kids

no offence to any college students here but the people im working with right now

let's just say they are not your typical people

really really weird individuals

[compact flare]

should you store everything in the game mode?

for ue4

is that good for performance?

[lament sonnet]

@drowsy snow how do i create animeset and squencename on animation? i cannot find any setting on ue4 is it ue3 setting ?

[drowsy snow]

It's more on design decisions than performance
It won't matter much if it's a single player game, but it can make or break with multiplayer + networking

how can i increase animation height inside animation setting i dont want to touch it ground

[tender ember]

Hello. why when i import material function all node connections are lost?

[fierce tulip]

material function needs to be saved(migrated) into the exact folder structure it was initially in, and if it relies on other custom material functions, the same goes for those.

[tender ember]

I created it in my folder where I store materials

[lament sonnet]

how can i add height on animation like this?

[spice ruin]

Does anyone know if there is a way in Unreal to show a solid volume for Kill Z volumes? I know I can do this with blocking volumes, but the kill z volumes just show up as outlines and I have been looking through all the menus and all over Google. Its just hard to see where they all are and what they encompass in them.

[woeful haven]

@plush yew so you did not see a way for me to recover my game in the online version or the desktop version ?

[oak patio]

Just google how to rollback project git

That too

Its just got a gitignore

No project

[woeful haven]

@plush yewmy project2 is my real project

my project2 is the name of the project im building

I've been pressing source control every time and uploading stuff somewhere

[oak patio]

Did you look at any guides for git or power through with hopes and prayers

Sourcetree is so good

[woeful haven]

i colleague here told me to better use source control, so i check it out downloading git and start uploading like crazy

@plush yewi will do some home work on the matter see if i come out

[oak patio]

This still gets us no closer

If you dont do your homework it will have to be detention

Manny needs a !detention command now

^

[woeful haven]

@plush yewi understand i did not thought it was complicated like that, i thought just go online press download somewhere and bamm

[spice ruin]

I love github desktop!

[woeful haven]

@plush yewyou won't believe THIS! i went into recycle bin fond my deleted files and restored them, i mean what!!! i don't think i could be more dumber than I'm right now! either way I'm not happy with the so call source control

[oak patio]

Learn source control cause you wont be so lucky next time

Rvill would really hate my uni course

We get marked down if we dont provide a committ log lmao

[woeful haven]

i mean i went true all the hassle of downloading git link it to unreal and press source control every time type in a description of the upload, and save it every timeee, i would not guess in a million years that it was not real, it was all a dream

[thick loom]

Wish my college actually provided useful education like this. If left up to school I wouldn't have learned about source control until my first job.

[oak patio]

damnnn

that sucks

i am a true believer of getting the habits down early

[thick loom]

I wish there was a way to know the quality of an education before you get it and try to use it

Most of what I've used in my career is self taught

[thick loom]

I agree!

Hey the Lyra Project is ignoring my game mode settings and looking for the default experiance settings, Is there a way to bypass the Lyra Experiance and just use regular ue4 game mode class?

[flint dagger]

Where are you setting the game mode, project settings or in the World Settings of the map? (Must admit, I've not worked with Lyra yet, just a guess)

[plush yew]

hey guys

Im having a bit of an issue with AI

so basically the detection of the player and the roaming works and all

but I cant seem to activate the running animation that's in my anim bp

when the AI perception is set to true as in when the enemy detects the player

this is part of my AI controller that's connected to my behavior tree

[tacit fern]

Can someone explain me the difference between world vs level vs map

[flint dagger]

Map and level are synonymous they're the same. Each Level has a world, which is just a class of information associated with a level. With each level you generally have a world traditionally, unless you are using level streaming - in which case, a world describes overarching information (e.g: persistent level) and other levels are within that.

(sorry added more info) :3

[tacit fern]

So does a world have only 1 level associated with it? By default

[flint dagger]

By default, yes I guess so.

It depends on how you have your levels set up.

If you're using level streaming, where you have one main level (your persistent level) and a few other levels loaded. Your persistent level is the 'world',

[tacit fern]

Ok thanks

[flint dagger]

Something like this - Persistent Level is the 'world'

But in general, it is safe to assume there is only ever one "world" loaded, and that's the persistent level. If you are not using streaming (like you said, one level loaded, then there is only one world)

But there are always exceptions to the rule.

[tacit fern]

I was just watching Alex's video on gameplay framework and didn't understand the difference btw world and level. I am not not familiar with level streaming so I will look into that also

[flint dagger]

But also to be pedantic on myself: Persistent level is the actual level you have open, World is what you see in World Settings, it is information that is global in terms of how that level works and is interpreted.

[flint dagger]

Oh yeah for sure, without level streaming at all - "World" is just extra information that defines how the "level" behaves or information about the level. Everything from lightmass calcuation to navigation, to the type of game mode (deathmatch etc).

In terms of how Unreal handles it (traditionally xD). There is only ever "one world" loaded (overarching information) and you can have a number of levels working with that.

[tacit fern]

Ig that's what I needed to hear, thanks again

[flint dagger]

Not a problem ❤️

[tacit fern]

Just needed one more clarification, if I load a different map the world object remains the same ri8?

[flint dagger]

Kinda. x3

It's tricky, do you mean load a different map without level streaming?

Like as in your not streaming in another map

[tacit fern]

Yes

[flint dagger]

Assuming so, then no, if you are straight up switching map - then you are changing to the new map's world settings.

[tacit fern]

Ok got it

[flint dagger]

So you're dropping both the level and the world, for a new level and world class. :3

(but generally, because no one really changes world settings it's kinda just like changing levels and defaulting)

[tacit fern]

So r u saying that a new Uworld object will be created with the same properties ri8

[flint dagger]

No, it doesn't take the properties from the last UWorld,

[tacit fern]

From the world settings

[flint dagger]

It will load a new destruct and contruct a new UWorld with whatever the new level's ones are.

Like as an example: You have two maps, one with a FirstPersonPrototype Game Mode, and one with a ThirdPersonPrototype Game Mode defined in their World Settings. If you load out of the first map, it destroys the world object with the game mode specified for FPS game mode and creates a new World with TPS game mode.

But say in a level streaming setup - if the persistent level, the one with the world settings has FPS Game mode set. You can stream levels in and out and the game mode won't change because they're all apart of that persistent level's UWorld.

Or another way to put it - the current UWorld Singleton does not get destroyed until the persistent level (top of the hierarchy) does.

[tacit fern]

Understood

[flint dagger]

I hope I've helped!

(sometimes I worry I complicate things more XD)

[tacit fern]

You definitely helped i got to know abt thus level streaming also now

[plush yew]

can somebody help me with my issue?

in the wiki its says

If you do not have permission to call this on one or more of your platforms, set GET_DEVICE_ID_UNAVAILABLE=1 in your build step to ensure that any calls that may be made to this API will simply return an empty string.

what is build step xD

[junior urchin]

Any tutorial for glass breaking?

[drowsy snow]

Upload it to the internet, or just do thumbdrive swapping with your friends IRL

Be careful with virus type malwares though if you go with the latter.

[idle pelican]

search on youtube "unreal engine 4 breakable glass" and you should find it

[junior urchin]

now, I am using the apex destruction but when I shoot on it, the glass didn't break

[drowsy snow]

Can't read russian, but IP config didn't tell you much, really. It only lists networking devices that you have.

I suggest you probe for some traffic with network analysis tools like Wireshark

[drowsy snow]

Try asking on #legacy-physics

[junior urchin]

ok thanks

[runic fern]

Yes i wanted to get device id we've talked yesterday about it i thought i can add the device id as a variable and compare between GetdeviceID and the variable if its compared will start work if its not " QUIT GAME "

[drowsy snow]

So basically making sure Quit Game only visible on PC?

[runic fern]

if the Device ID not equal to the Device id i've stored before will quit the game

[drowsy snow]

Rudimentary anti piracy measure?

[runic fern]

idk what does it mean yes probably:D

[drowsy snow]

Comparing device ID isn't the best way to prevent piracy, me thinks.
One can either intercept it on memory or save data, or backfire on legitimate users who do something like reinstalling Windows while keeping game files intact.

Can't think of any other situation to do so other than auth reasons

[runic fern]

Well i was thinking to make it online login system or even the device id stored on database via HTTP Request

[drowsy snow]

Login system would be better. You'd just have to concern about making sure the user put in the right credentials, and don't have to worry about where they played it.

[ruby steeple]

as a beginner, should I learn UE4 or UE5?

(with C++ development)

[spice ruin]

For a beginner they're pretty similar.

[drowsy snow]

Depends on how many jank can you take. UE5 is fully released, but 5.0 is kinda janky here and there.

[ruby steeple]

but I've heard UE5 isn't ready for C++ dev just yet

[oak patio]

Ue4 has a totally superior layout and im not biased at all or anything

But either is good, its just ue5 still has some teething issues

[drowsy snow]

Who said that?

It's just that many part of C++ coding in UE5 changed from UE4.

[real heath]

The advice has previously been stick with ue4 until full 5.0 release except for testing and previewing. But 5.0 is now fully released so if I was starting out, I'd start with ue5

[ruby steeple]

yeah but there isn't any tutorials with UE5 that use the C++ coding system

[spice ruin]

Do you have any experience with c++ in unreal at all?

[ruby steeple]

I don't. I only have experience with C++

[spice ruin]

At the start, ue4 and ue5 are basically the same when it comes to c++. Setting up classes and so on.

Not until you dive into engine code will you really find important differences

Just follow a ue4 tutorial on it, if it doesn't work, it might be that it didn't work for the latest version of ue4 either because you're using an old tutorial.

[ruby steeple]

so if I am an hobbyist game developer, not yet looking for a job (im only 13) it doesnt matter, but UE5 would be better == newer, and just use an UE4 tutorial?

right?

[fierce tulip]

yea, and over time more ue5 tuts will be available. in some cases things have changes but those should be noticable. in the meantime, just have fun playing around with the engine, that is the most important part :)

[ruby steeple]

alright!\

do i install the 13gb 5.0.1 hotfix?

currenttly at 5.0.0

[fierce tulip]

not really needed, but you can if you want. it just fixes a few small (but important) things you prolly wont touch.

[ruby steeple]

then I won't

thanks a lot everyone!

I don't understand where the light is coming from. I would expect this scene to be pitch black. anyone know why it isnt?

hey all, I'm using ultra dynamic sky. when i turn on lightning as a light source, it replaces the sun as a light source everytime it flashes. is there a way to retain the both light sources instead of it switching?

[junior urchin]

anyone know why this function disappear from my list?

[oak patio]

You probably arent in the context of a destructable component

[junior urchin]

but i follow exactly one guy that teach this stuff

and he is managed to have this function

[oak patio]

Because he was likley in the context of it, or had context sensitive unticked

[junior urchin]

do you know how to fix that?😬

[oak patio]

Do either of the things i suggested

Untick context sensitive

[junior urchin]

ooh nvm ady, i have to drag it out from the function add destructible component

[oak patio]

Ir get the context of a destructable component

just now I just right click and search for the function

so not sure what is happening

[oak patio]

i think ue5 is better as they did not change the workflow and api very much (afaik). All you need to do is learn some of the extended c++ structure and vice versa...

Excuse me, has anyone ever gotten Steam multiplayer working on Mac? Or is mac just not supported at all by Unreal Engine? While there's mac options and related gear IN the engine. You can only build for mac from a mac computer. And I have a lot of questions about how that works... Is the steam multiplayer between the mac build, and the windows build compatible? I can just build one. Send the project, and then build the other, and they're compatible? And for another, does Steam multiplayer work on Mac? I've found two reports of it NOT working, but no tutorials or learning resources, or anything related to GETTING it working. Are these just isolated reports, or does everyone have trouble doing Steam multiplayer on Mac?

And I don't believe Xcode and C++ are the same by any stretch of the imagination, do you have to do any converting for building the project through an ide so that plugins actually load?

because I did that vizualizer thing

[modest trench]

Console commands like stat rhi may help too

[earnest condor]

is there something i need to do in the collision tab or is this more an import issue?

[crisp marsh]

I don't see anything abnormal in stat rhi

that area actually has probably the least amount of triangles in the whole level

light complexity, quad, reflections, and shader complexity look all good

[oak patio]

that will either need per poly collision enabled which is fine for blockout, or custom collision makign

[earnest condor]

how do u do that in ue4

[oak patio]

look it up, its in the mesh settings

unless you mean custom collision which is done in external dcc

@everyone

[regal mulch]

Hm, make sure the camera is used an run high-res screenshot console command?

[modest trench]

do you mean at runtime?

[regal mulch]

Can you rephrase that? Because it's not really clear what you mean. What float data are we talking about?

[regal mulch]

I mean that console command also works runtime

[modest trench]

I suppose, yeah

[modest trench]

do you mean creating a C++ float uproperty that BPs can see and edit?

no

1. Don't take photo of your screen, it's hard to see anything. Consider using direct screenshot instead.

2. Avoid using bind function if you aren't going to update it every single frame.

Hi guys! I have a problem regarding the quixel bridge workflow. I want to model some modular house pieces and I obviously need to texture them. How can I use the bridge textures in blender?

How do you use quixel bridge? Do you apply the textures inside the engine?

[drowsy snow]

You can bring them into Blender for you to process, however with Unreal licence, you can only make final renders with UE.

[violet yoke]

Thanks

Also I have some trouble when I want to use seamless textures

They aren't really that seamless as you can notice when the textures cut

Anyone know how to fix the Material issue when migrating? I have custom made geometry with multiple materials set up, and then converted to static meshes. All works fine. But when i migrate to a different project or whatever it only uses 1 material for the whole mesh, like the UV's are messed up or something.

[next badger]

Via "Migrate" ?

[fickle helm]

Yes

[next badger]

make a level, place all the meshes you want to migrate in that level, make sure they look as intended, then migrate the level with all references

[fickle helm]

Yeah thats what ive done, i migrated the level with everything. And all of the custom meshes i built in UE were all broken

[next badger]

ofc, you can only migrate to Content root

i.e. no chnages in locations can be made

[fickle helm]

Yeah i know all that, still doesnt work

show the source and result

Something to do with the LOD "sections" i think

have you used mesh editing tools?

if so, you need to export the mesh and import back

that plugin breaks some data in meshes

it may even crash the editor

[fickle helm]

Noo they were built purely with the built in geometry editor, no 3rd party tools

[next badger]

try to export an import back.

make sure all the data is intact

you can import as a copy if you have no version control

[kindred depot]

to make a chain like a iron chain, do i need to create it as a skel mesh, or can i do it as a static object and simulate physics?

[next badger]

realtime? then skeleton is the only way

[kindred depot]

thats what i thought

_< more work to do

each link needs to be a bone.

[next badger]

don't go too far with that, as long bone chains also consume cpu time

[kindred depot]

oh its for a weapon cham

2 small links

[next badger]

ok...then physics is out of question 🙂 it tends to break often

[kindred depot]

thats good to hear, than god i did not do it that way and had to redo it

making the links rn in 3ds max 🙂

[next badger]

if you only need few links, you can try using ue physics constraint components

[kindred depot]

hmm i heard about that never actually used it

[woeful fern]

Hi, on a multiplayer lobby, I want to set a default camera for all players. Then when the game can start, switch to default character camera. I'm doing this inside the gamemode (I guess), but the first issue is I don't know how to get a reference to my world camera

[next badger]

there is always one camera that is attached to player controller 1...keep in mind, that every instance connected to server has main player controlled by 1st player controller, so to get that camera just get character controlled by this controller and get camera inside it (generally ue4 suggest to use camera manager along with controller)

also #multiplayer

[shadow surge]

I am new to Unreal and I am starting to learn the engine should I start learning 4 or is 5 stable with adequate resources at this point?

[astral heart]

What’s the best way to export a textured model from Blender to import into UE so that it maintains the material and textures. I have a map in blender I’m trying to get loaded in but it brings the model and materials are all white

[next badger]

@shadow surgestart with 5th, there will be no more updates for 4, and 90% of stuff in ue5 will work the same way as it did in ue4

[astral heart]

I’ve had files I’ve uploaded into UE that can in properly textured. How did those work?

[woeful fern]

thanks for your reply mate, I'll have a look on camera manager class

[astral heart]

Is the only way to manually color every mesh in UE?

When I import the textures they don’t apply to the mesh unless I automatically apply them but it’s over 200 for this model

[next badger]

@astral heart you may look towards datasmith importer if you want to migrate a lot of assets with materials

[astral heart]

I want to join them as one mesh. I’m trying to import them into UE4 for contractors VR

[next badger]

well, RIP VR then

this is blender, so no datasmith, sorry

but iirc there was a plugin that can sync assets

textures will be applied automatically, if the shader is simple and they have nice naming

[coarse wigeon]

This should work for your needs - https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/livelink-for-blender

It is free as well

[oak patio]

Livelink is for mocap?

[astral heart]

Cool I’ll try it. Only issue is I have to use a specific UE4.27 for the contractors VR mod

[coarse wigeon]

Let me know if it works 🙂

[astral heart]

hey everyone

i got a question, so i currently have a blender project im working on, and for the background im using ue4 scenes that i either created, or got from the unreal engine marketplace, and i will be selling these photos as nfts, my question is, is there gonna be any copyright problems, or is it alright to use them

cz if i remember correctly i remember seeing that you're only allowed to use assets from the unreal marketplace on for games or stuff made in unreal and nothing else

[kindred depot]

It needs to be used for unreal engine only.

[glossy vault]

so i cant make a scene in unreal, take a screenshot, and use it as background in blender?

[kindred depot]

Blender is not unreal engine.

[drowsy snow]

If you bring them to blender and make final renders there, it counts as made with Blender.

[tiny valley]

Im trying to make material and have a texture follow a actor through a material paramater, how would I go about this

[oak patio]

What do you mean

[robust tide]

you can change the gamemode which will change the player controller class with it

i can't really think of an instance in which you might want to change the player controller class in the same gamemode. but if you're trying to do a separate character controller for lobby / character creator / match those would all be done best with different game modes

[white bridge]

Guys ! Any thoughts, if i run a packaged project @ 1080 vs 1440 its fine like there is 7 fps drop , but when i run it @2160 (4k) there a huge drop like 90% of the 1080

[tough hazel]

Sorry if this isn't the right place for this, but I have two general questions about development that didn't seem to fit anywhere specific.

Firstly, how do I keep myself from constantly iterating on every asset, line of code, and level? I keep going back to redo everything from scratch (as I found a better way to do something, for example - and on rare occasions I'll scrap entire projects just to have a clean slate to redo all of it - a terrible misuse of my time). I fear I'll be stuck iterating forever if I don't find a better way.

Secondly, I don't have a consistent workflow for every step of development - it changes as I go along (which leads to more reiteration). Is that hurting me? Should I get down a clear workflow for each step and stick to it?

[potent goblet]

I'm 10000% not an expert on this, but what you could try for the first one is to have a finished project before you improve something.

Or something that is playable from start to end

[kindred depot]

does anyone know what this is and why it is happening? is this a tris issue or normal problem?

[kindred depot]

All models in unreal engine need to be converted into tris.

why????

😦

i give up tonight

[cosmic lotus]

Hey everyone ,is there any way to integrate or use CMS with UE4 . CMS like Wordpress.

Any help would be great !!!

[bleak zodiac]

anything in engine is triangulate
learn.unreal 🙂

[heady dirge]

Yes cuz triangles are the most performant of the shapes so game engines work with triangles

So they take less memory and faster compute time I really don't see a downside to using triangles

[oak patio]

Anything converts to tris

In fact if you import the fbx back in blender it is tris

Question has UE4 stoped allowing you to package your game with plugins folder because everytime i package my project it will not open and if i package my project without plugins folder it works I'm using advanced steam sessions

[flint dagger]

What errors are you getting? UE4 will only not export "editor" modules, runtime modules are fine, which means Advanced steam sessions should be too.

[alpine elm]

I get no errors when packing that is all good don't understand this at all

[flint dagger]

You're missing a plugin called SteamShared,

which is weird.. It's native to UE4.

[alpine elm]

how can i fix it need it for university

[flint dagger]

I'm not sure unfortunately, you'll have to wait for someone who can :c

[ebon osprey]

Anyone know of a way to open a second details tab for an actor in UE4? So I can have two actor details open at once to compare values?

whenever i export character from blender to ue4 it always broke the axis of bone orientation and found character bend spine01 and pelvis at 90degree

i never face this issue on unity3d export issue

so frustrating to work with ue4 with blender on skeleton and physics export and ur official plugin only support for rig not for armature and skeleton

and for that blender has no setting to fix it automatically u need do manually 1 by1 rotate y axis of bone waste 30-40min bone roll doesnt roll the bone itself it just change direction of axis not the bone itself and their no way to fix it

hello folks!. a newbie question, a weird line occur after I build lighting. tried to increase lightmap resolution but didn't help. does anybody have idea about the problem?thanks!

[drowsy snow]

Well, before I go ahead and fill it in, it would be nice to know more about these tools, e.g. what's the licence of the planned models, what's the catch of the usage, is it tied to some crypto mometisation scheme, etc.

I'm personally rather picky with those things, as I want it to be more permissive if it indeed open, and I'm heavily against cryptocurrency monetisations.

[drowsy snow]

Make sure the model's lightmap UVs are built right to begin with.

I don't know, but that sounds like kinda conflicting against my business goals, which is in the similar vein to The Witcher 3's business model. I don't want to have players pay for cosmetics, unless it's a special collaboration with other franchises.

[oak patio]

are the prices of these cosmetics set by the developer?

[drowsy snow]

Personally I'm a gamer and modder first and foremost, so I want to have something that's more consumer friendly, especially considering that my game will be a premium single player game.

[quasi moat]

Where do I ask about collision stuff? Can I ask here or?

I need some guidance or something.

[oak patio]

Ask away

[quasi moat]

There are Attack Objects that have data about the attack. Montage, Duration, Play Rate, Move List for that Attack, Damage Points, etc.

These damage points basically have a min and a max time, and an enum that describes which bone can attack during that time. I wanted to implement it with On Component Hit, get a timestamp of the collision hit and then see which damage point it actually occurred in. However, On Component Hit never fires, no matter how I setup my Attack Hit Box Capsule Component (a separate capsule from the main one), so I had to do it in BeginOverlap. BeginOverlap does work, but it actually manages to miss even when I am close to my target. This is my approach for now.

Trying to do a beat 'em up game. Is my approach bad? Do I set up the collision on the mesh? If so, how? How do I know which bone can attack and which doesn't, even if collision is made by the wrong bone during the attack (like attacking with left elbow, but you make contact with the right elbow, that should not count as damage, etc.)? I can't wrap my head around this problem.

In other words, what I am trying to do is setup a collision for my attack system. I want to attach capsule components to the mesh (hit box, right foot, right hand) to detect the collisions.

But I can't get those capsule components attached to the mesh to fire the On Component Hit events. But I think this approach might be bad for my idea. So I want some guidance/help/something.

[viral carbon]

Is it possible to downgrade my project from v4.26 to 4.25? It's a relatively small game and I don't use any exclusive content

[drowsy snow]

No.

[viral carbon]

How come? What if I manually copy each blueprint?

[drowsy snow]

Because Unreal assets are not backwards compatible, blueprints included.
You could try manually copy BP nodes, but it's going to be tedious, as you're basically manually recreating the BP.

Hi Everyone. I have a lighting issue that I can not seem to figure out. I am creating a symmetrical map. When I mirror one side to the other side mirroring gives the meshes a -x value. Which does not cause any issues until I merge the meshes together. After merging all the meshes with a -x value the lighting goes crazy. Ive looked everywhere and cant find how to fix this.

[spring wigeon]

I have a question. Has anyone made a game purely in Blueprints? And if so, was it relatively negative in regards to performance? Or is it managable?

I am not really great with C++, BP is something I've got a little bit more experience in, but I wanted to check if you can design a fun simple multiplayer shooter purely in BP, or not.

[drowsy snow]

Managable as long as the game's not too complicated.
Also general rule of thumb is that to work with BP until you have either:

1. a working gameplay and keep it in BP
2. get a proof of concept working, and use the resulting BP as a basis for further development in either BP or C++
3. Actually suffered performance in game thread, you need to sideload them into a C++ function
4. Hit the limit of stock BP nodes, you make BP callable function in C++

[spring wigeon]

So probably best to just move into C++ then?

[drowsy snow]

Not really

It's more of a balancing act than just yes or no.

[spring wigeon]

Ah. I see.

[drowsy snow]

If you're in doubt, always consult to stat unitgraph (or Unreal Insight if necessary), and test it in Standalone process or packaged build to have better idea on the performance without the Editor's overhead in PIE.

[spring wigeon]

Hm. Alright, well thank you for some of the insight!

[drowsy snow]

The problem is that 4K is 4 times 1080p.

[clear bronze]

Is anyone familiar with pitch black shadows problem in UE4 when you're trying to run a game in full screen ? I'm using moveable lights, I have global illumination on, when the game is running windowed it looks fine, but as soon as I try have it full screen the shadows go pitch black

https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/shadows-just-black-even-with-skylight/295173 very similar to this

Another thing I found out is that having global illumination set at 3, or above, makes it work the other way around. So shadows are fine in full screen but are pitch black in the windowed. This looks like some sort of a engine error

[main fox]

can line traces trigger on begin overlap events?

[spring wigeon]

Question in regards to model imports and animations. Do I have to make sure to keep specific parts of the model separate if I want to have them be animated? I.E Wheels and the turret. Or can I link all the parts together into one model and animate it that way? I want the wheels to move when I move, turn when I turn, and the turret to point where I am pointing. So I wasn't sure if I should keep them apart, or have it all be linked together and just add a skeletal bone to the model for animation.

[plush yew]

Hi, my Unreal Insights file is missing?

[restive garden]

Rotating parts on models with bones are the same as character heads or limbs, no need to separate them.
But if use wheels and suspension system, wheels should be separated.
Attach turret as child to car body and make blueprint to rotate it depending on user input.

[twin beacon]

anyone know where to get fonts for commercial use?

[bleak zodiac]

engine?

[spring wigeon]

Mostly will use wheels, no suspension system as they are just Roombas, problem right now I am facing is that I can't bone my model, in the sense that it simply won't let me apply the mesh to the bone, I've been following various tutorials on how to do it, but I just can't seem to make it work.

[restive garden]

Probably you can make your model just solid body + turret + 4 weels, without bones at all, and control all rotations with blueprints.
Like in this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWTCM6sZ6OE

[spring wigeon]

So if i do it that way. It's best I keep the parts separate then? The Wheels and the turret?

And what is the exact list of errors from the Output Log

[kind dew]

OWF_BaseJob.h(7): [C1083] Cannot open include file: 'OWF_BaseJob.generated.h': No such file or directory

possibly important info is that this is actually a plugin with 2 modules. This is in one of those modules

[spice ruin]

That's every error from the Output Window?

Not the "Errors List"

[kind dew]

fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'OWF_BaseJob.generated.h': No such file or directory [G:\UnrealProjects\MarketplaceAssets\OWFExample\Intermediate\ProjectFiles\OWFExample.vcxproj]

yea thats the only one

[spice ruin]

Are you compiling with the editor running?

[kind dew]

i've deleted that intermediate folder and regenerated a couple times

[spice ruin]

(random guess?!)

[kind dew]

no

[spice ruin]

I can't see anything wrong. 😦

[kind dew]

😦 thanks for the help anyway

its a doozy

[spice ruin]

I take it your module is called NPCSystem?

[kind dew]

another thing is that im using rider

yessir

[spice ruin]

Try taking out the api macro ?!

[kind dew]

im trying now to build using VS in case that was weird for some reason

waaaaaaat? really i mean i can try that seems wrong though haha

[spice ruin]

It's not essential. At this stage.

If the class isn't compiling I doubt you're using it outside the module already!

[kind dew]

haha okay yea i just figured that would lead to more compiler errors

i'll try it

nope same error:(

[kind dew]

is there a way to see log out put for Generating the Project Files? Maybe theres an error there when it tries to generated that .h

[spice ruin]

It doens't generate the .h when it generates project files

"Project files" aren't even used to build your game.

They are purely IDE files.

It generates the .h file when you build using the UBT.

[kind dew]

oh so when are they generated?

[spice ruin]

(that's generally when you hit built in your IDE)

[kind dew]

and when does it build using the build tool? just when i build my solution

ah okay

[proper comet]

Does somebody have experience with high res screenshot missing objects? The level runs fine, but when I make a screenshot (both in game and in editor), the objects are missing.

[proper comet]

Example from the editor - one is what I see and what is in the game, the other is the result of the high res screenshot

[fossil ridge]

anyone know how to fix my 2d sprite game not working? once i start the game it doesnt let my character move and the camera connected to the player doesnt open

[kind dew]

hey man sorry to keep bugging you. Just all on my own here. Do you know, if i don't include the module in the .plugin file, would it still try to be compiled?

cause i removed the module that the .h file is in completely from the .plugin file and it still gives me that compiler error

[fossil ridge]

fixed ^

[wispy heart]

What order does the engine read a landscapes components? Left to right, top to bottom or any other way?

[clever axle]

Hey guys.. I have a level that has very bad FPS in a certain area but I can't make out what is tanking the FPS. Is there a good way to find out?

[split jasper]

Has UE4 been keeping every autosave it's made? how is this 7GB when my entire game is barely double that?

Is there a smart safe way to clean that directory?

[mild sedge]

Hello friends, just a small question. Did you have any bad experience using enhanced inputs with shipping projects? thank you so much for your help!

[coral folio]

HYa! do you know where is the origin of the oculus quest 2 headset ?

i need to map the physical location of the headset with the virtual location of player start.

right now i'm kinda guessing and sorta works, but i need precision#

[prime tulip]

I'm having a super annoying issue with the editor. For some reason after 5 mins or so my right click menus start to close by themselves right after opening them. I have looked up this issue and appearntly there's a lot of people having this issue and there's a fix from Nvidia, but it doesn't work. Does anyone know how to fix this? 😦

[timid merlin]

can I some how make player controller class toggle on command?

[drowsy snow]

Just delete the Autosave folder

[fossil ridge]

i have a main menu for my game, and when i open the game it also opens the ui that is inside the game on the main menu screen too. any ideas how to fix it?

[drowsy snow]

Do you have the main menu as a separate level?

[fossil ridge]

yeh

[clever marsh]

do you guys know of any tutorials online for a fluid feeling boxing-style combat system? mine is better than it used to be just through cleaning up but its still a little janky

[clever marsh]

just set up the create widget bp in the level bp so it only does it for levels you want

[fossil ridge]

wdym

[clever marsh]

is your create widget bp set up in your character bp?

[fossil ridge]

and no

its not

[clever marsh]

no like go into your character bp and find the "create widget" node it will be connected to the "Add to viewport" node

[fossil ridge]

yes

it is

@clever marsh

mb

[clever marsh]

just move that to the event begin play in the level bp

[fossil ridge]

the main menu or

oh

i gotchu

worked, thank u @clever marsh

[clever marsh]

no worries

[muted iron]

Is there a tool or plugin for Unreal that functions similar to the light lister in Max/Vray, something that allows me to bulk edit, turn off/on lights etc?

[drowsy snow]

You could just make an Actor Blueprint with array of reference to point light actors, and for each loop through the array to toggle Affects World bool.

[cyan cargo]

Does anyone know how or if I can add attenuation settings for sound played in a sequence?

[soft crystal]

God damnit. UE4 crashed during saving and now my project wouldn't load anymore. I just get this error:

Assertion failed: SerializeNum >= 0 [File:D:\Build\++UE4\Sync\Engine\Source\Runtime\Core\Public\Containers/Array.h] [Line: 1182]

Any idea how to restore?

[oak patio]

you have just learned the source control lesson

check for auto saves or temp saves

[soft crystal]

Yeah. I should probably use git. Something in a level seems to have gotten corrupted. So far I made a new Project and reimported my content. Just lucky that it's not a huge project.

[clever marsh]

so I have a combat system set up, and I am trying to implement multiplayer into it, but when I lose health, my opponent loses health and vice versa. Any tips?

it makes sense to me why it is hurting me aswell but I dont know another option

[drowsy snow]

Look into the built in damage interface, it should take care of net replication.

[timid cloak]

Hey, I am so sorry for the bother but does anyone have the UE4 GitHub version? For some reason it is not working for me, I completed all the steps but I still don't have access to it, plus the Epic Games version is crab, I want to implement my Dedicated Server to it. Thanks 👍

[rose tapir]

can someone help me with this error trying to build for mobile

[lament sonnet]

when i export some mesh some of my bone get overstretch if weight paint is red on blender how can i have stretch without getting stretch ongame issue i put some stretch bone lock but i lose some stretch property byitself

[drowsy snow]

https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/ue4-on-github

If it fails, rinse and repeat

[timid cloak]

@drowsy snow

Yes but I linked my Epic Games Account to GitHub

And I still don't have access to it!

🤷

How can I get access

[drowsy snow]

Check your e-mails first for invitations to the group

[timid cloak]

Yes I don't have them

That is the main case

[drowsy snow]

Unlink, then link it again

[timid cloak]

I tried it!

10 times and I get emails but not for joining

Like in other YT videos

I just get that I linked it and unlinked it

I don't have this

@drowsy snow I got access I think, thanks!

[lament sonnet]

u cant answer hard question cr_makoto

[timid cloak]

I can help?

What is the case

[lament sonnet]

my bone get stretch on ue4 via blender

unless i lock stretch

but it lose stretch property

[drowsy snow]

Coolio!

[timid cloak]

I've never heard of this to be honest, I am expert in UE4, but not with Blender and bones sorry!

First time hearing this to be honest

🤷

[lament sonnet]

ue4 is really abnormal with blender

[timid cloak]

I agree

[lament sonnet]

ue4 only work with autodesk 3dmax

[timid cloak]

For me it works fine

[lament sonnet]

it doesnt work for us

we are not 3dmax people

lack of UE4 documentation of blender

i really hate that part

[timid cloak]

I always use Blender with UE4, works fine

Maybe the problem is with your character

[lament sonnet]

doesnt ur some bone get stretch if ur weight paint red ?

[timid cloak]

I don't understand sorry

[lament sonnet]

i think u new to ue4

[timid cloak]

I am not

I don't understand that sentence tho

[lament sonnet]

ur github first time link

[timid cloak]

True

I was using Epic Games

But I need GitHub for Dedicated Server

Otherwise I cannot package it

I need to enter the same Build Version, which is a thing Epic Games version lack

GitHub version is being used for this

[lament sonnet]

the reason i want to switch back to ue4 to unity3d cause of this bone issue with so long issue on blender

[drowsy snow]

Why not go oldskool with listen server?

[timid cloak]

Well the problem is security

I already did it

[drowsy snow]

The security would be up to the host, but I can see the problems.
Though with dedicated server you'd be responsible for all the clients connected

[timid cloak]

True true

The only thing that is left

Is to try and make like a whitelister

So I can only accept connections, by my logic not possible

🤔

And a login system would require backend, I only know C++/C# coding

[drowsy snow]

For games like GTA Online, dedicated server is necessary (and it's still baffling that they use listen server for it to this day, considering it's pseudo-MMORPG)

For games like CSGO, community run listen server is less of a problem, as clients only stay for the remainder of the match.

[timid cloak]

I indeed have a BR game, which is fine with a listen server, but the problem is I want to check their IPs (I am doing this through Hamachi tho) so I can only know who is coming! But yeah, Listen Server is the oldschool MP ofcourse 👊

[drowsy snow]

holding myself from posting starter pack meme

[timid cloak]

Finally got it 🙏

[pallid olive]

hi nooby here, was looking how to determine in playerstate how to say that player 2 has won the game session and player 1 has lost the game session

[timid cloak]

I never use them tho

[timid cloak]

It is simple, BR game?

[pallid olive]

what ia br game

[timid cloak]

BR = Battle Royale

Cause for what else you will need that

🤷

[drowsy snow]

BR is far from simple but I digress

[pallid olive]

no haha it a simpel 2d game

[drowsy snow]

#multiplayer

[timid cloak]

It is simple but, true different for everyone

[timid cloak]

👍

[pallid olive]

it is writen in gamestate right?

[timid cloak]

Do you have your own GameState?

[pallid olive]

yes

[timid cloak]

Then here

Wait

[lament sonnet]

i imported the same character on unity3d their is no issue even a single bit

[timid cloak]

Ah sorry, Unity, I don't know

[lament sonnet]

ue4 has 2 more really frustating issue stretch bone - bone revert axis roll -orientation break the mesh cause of that root and spine bone get reverted

[timid cloak]

@pallid olive

DM me my friend, I will show you in details

It is really simple

[pallid olive]

would be a pleassure

[timid cloak]

👍

[lament sonnet]

i dont think u used blender may be u export it as rig not as skeleton and armature format

[lament sonnet]

i dont know how u develop game without that when u mention

[timid cloak]

I don't understand the problem man

Screenshot so I can know?

I've never had this problem before?

There is a first time for everything

[lament sonnet]

i dont think u can solve the issue when u not use blender bones deep

[timid cloak]

I use

But how would I know the problem without a screenshot

[lament sonnet]

use and do is different thing

i will give screenshot later

[timid cloak]

I use Blender all the time

[lament sonnet]

u will understand

[timid cloak]

Ofcourse

But without it, I am not able sorry

👍

[coarse jetty]

I'm having constant crashes report in sentry due to d3d in my packaged apss, is there any way to handle this from unreal?

Unreal Engine is exiting due to D3D device being

[rose tapir]

has any 1 build for mobile here ?? having a hard time with the sdk or the api just trying to get ball rolling game on google play store

[winter marsh]

is there a console command to check a random variable that was set during runtime without having print to string on tick constantly?

[coarse jetty]

yep its very struggling some times, there is no secret, try and error

[rose tapir]

lol my tiktok been getting a ton of videos LOL and thats what ive been doing

[supple gyro]

Hello !
I have a big problem on my Unreal since this morning and I can't fix it at all:
In the editor when I move my mouse over menus (so basically everywhere but the viewport), my whole screen blinks in black
I'm working on a laptop, and for the moment the only solution I've found is to connect another screen with HDMI, on which for some reason I don't have the bug.
So I can still work, but in a less comfortable way, so if anyone has an idea of a fix... 😅

[drowsy snow]

Is it an NVIDIA GPU?

[supple gyro]

Yep !

I've been told to use a fixreg like this but it doesnt work

[dawn gull]

have you restarted your computer after applying the registries?

[supple gyro]

Yup

[dawn gull]

Eh it was worth a shot

[supple gyro]

Yeah haha

[dawn gull]

Does anybody know how I can take a pawn set up to use player axis controls and make it continuously go forward? i tried to just make the axis a custom event and then set the forward delta move to be 1 but it doesnt just go straight forward.

[spice ruin]

Turn if off and on again. 3 times.

Add movement input on tick?

[dawn gull]

i tried that but thats the one where it doesnt go in a straight line

So I'm using a project with spherical gravity which is why im doing things weirdly, no matter where I place the pawn on the planet it will go to the exact same spot and stay there, and if it's pushed out of the way it will go back even though all im doing is repeatedly calling the "move forward" code. I've changed literally nothing else

[clever marsh]

okay i’ll look at it when i get home

[spice ruin]

So the source of hte gravity isn't the centre of the planet?

[dawn gull]

It is in the center, it still behaves fine as well as the player gravity wise but the pawn moves there.

[spice ruin]

What happens when it hits the surface?

I assume it falls towards the planet and then moves around it?

[dawn gull]

Yes, it's not allowed to move until its hit the ground

[spice ruin]

That isn't what I meant. So the gravity isn't moving it to a single spot, your movement code is?

[dawn gull]

Oh, yes. The gravity is always in the center of the planet

[spice ruin]

If the gravity is offset by a small amount, it can cause things to go around the planet to the place where it's closest (without appropriate friction)

I thought maybe that was happening.

What happens if you don't call "move forward" ?

[dawn gull]

I can rule that out since the player is moving fine. I think it could be a problem with it just being set up to use axis controls.

[dawn gull]

It will stay put

[coral folio]

hi all, i'm experiencing weird stuttering in the viewport after pressing simulate/play. the issue persist in all projects using 4.27. i've tried reinstalling the engine version, and tried rolling back nvidia drivers as i've heard that could have been a cause... i dont know whts going on...

the stuttering is pretty random but frequent, after i click the mouse trying to move the camera around at some point the viewport freezes for like half a second then pick it backup

[spice ruin]

What is your movement code then?

[coral folio]

what is going onnnn

[dawn gull]

What do you mean? If I dont call the movement code then it wont move.

[spice ruin]

So what is the movement code?

Standard Character code?

[dawn gull]

It takes axis controls and gets the delta from it then sets a variable for a separate piece of code to turn into a vector for the movement direction and then it combines it with the gravity so that itll move around fine on the sphere

[spice ruin]

Are you using Actor's ForwardVector and RigthVector?

Or rotating the axis input by the actor's rotation?

Does your actor even "face" a direction?

[dawn gull]

Yes, it uses forward and right vector but I checked and the right vector never does anything. The actor does face the direction and I already set up a debug arrow to show which way its facing.

[spice ruin]

Some video of it failing would be helpful, including that debug arrow.

You should also debug output the final movement vector

[dawn gull]

Already have that set up, I'll try to get a video of it later today since I just got to school but its literally the weirded bug I've seen.

[waxen stirrup]

Hey 🙂 I know this is very extraordinary topic but maybe someone knows something about it and can lead me in the right direction. I am trying to get Satisfactory (UE4 based) running on my Mac through CrossOver.

Crossover provides patches to make DirectX and Vulkan Windows Games playable on Mac. For this to work it uses

• Wine: Translates Windows calls to Mac calls
• MoltenVK: Translates Vulkan calls to Metal calls (Metal is Macs base Graphic library)
• DXVK: Translates DirectX calls to Vulkan calls
  ...
  🤯

However I faced an issue where I don't know how to proceed.
I just started Satisfactory with the start parameters -vulkan -log on CrossOver and encountered the following error: EPixelFormat(36) is not supported with Vk format 4

Does somebody know what is going on or how it can be fixed?

I would really appreciate your help 🙂

[spice ruin]

Sounds like an integral display setting or asset issue.

Check the ue api for EPixelFormat, find the 37th one in the list (first is 0) and see what it is.

[waxen stirrup]

Thank you I will have a look 🙂

[drowsy snow]

IMHO you're stepping into the dark here, as that'd be more of the issue of the compatibility layer than engine fault.
I'd suggest try other UE4 games or any other non-UE games with either graphics API and see if it fails.

At least I see Linux had more success with compat layers more than Mac (which uses Metal), minus anti cheat protections.

[restive garden]

Hi, is it possible to tweak node wires to not stick together? So they will go in parallel lines?

[sturdy smelt]

Electronic Nodes is an Plugin for it when i remember correctly, thats rly Good.

[azure reef]

Anyone know what this warnings means?
It always crash on AR when I'm trying to scan the environment.

[humble rivet]

When creating UMG for mobile do you need to rotate your buttons etc for portrait or does it automatically rotate?

[arctic pebble]

Hello

It's been a long time I don't talk here

I don't know much about this community, I did a game jam using Unreal 4 and it went pretty well I did an RTS

But the thing is I only did Cubic models

In Blender

[bleak zodiac]

@arctic pebble 🙂

[drowsy snow]

Reroute nodes.

[oblique tangle]

Hi all, I've been trying to get this problem solved for the last hour, but can't seem to find anything solid;
Essentially, I'm adding a sorta 'quick-turn' mechanic where the player can turn around a corner by attaching a 'web' to a corner point;
I've got the movement all worked out but I can't, for the life of me, figure out a solid way to detect when to end the 'turn move';
I was originally calculating the dot product between the rope direction ([rope loc - actor loc]*normalized) and the initial wall normal (N1), and checking when that value went <0; This works 95% of the time but isn't too well in all geometry cases, and the trace sometimes doesn't return a hit due to the player moving at a high speed
Super sorry if this isn't relevant or anything, had no clue where to put it

[fallow hornet]

sweet, thank you

[fading wolf]

Is there a resource for how to setup/organise your blueprints and such ? A tutorial I used to follow kept going back and changing stuff and keeping everything in separate components, but I don't think that's the best practice

[drowsy snow]

I guess it's not sus enough

[fallow hornet]

lol

[grizzled carbon]

I've got a shit problem. I have a C++ base class, a bp child, and a bp grandchild. Unit Base -> Unit -> Human.

The Unit Base has a component. a GAS ability component system but it doesn't really matter. This is reflected on the Unit in the BP editor. As well as any children I make for the unit. But the human seems to have some sort of null copy of it. That is, it appears in the editor, but has no details in the details panel. At runtime it is not instantiated, so a lot of stuff breaks.

It seems like I can fix this by reparenting the Human to be an actor, and then reparenting back to a Unit. I'm wondering if this is likely to have any breaking side effects though... Any ideas? Not sure how this happened to begin with.

fudge. yeah nvm it clearly broke a lot of events that were previously inherited. grrrrr

[dawn gull]

https://youtu.be/eeZr0aAqcgQ

Sorry that took so long

[dawn gull]

Nvm, I fixed it with some tinkering. The camera which it was getting the direction to move from doesnt move with the actor rotation, so it was staying the same relative to the world but not relative to the planet, and eventually when it moved enough the camera would be facing directly up and the pawn wouldnt be able to move any more so I just set the rotation to be that of the character

[digital holly]

is anyone able to help me with some ai collision and blocking collision stuff in a screen share session? its probably simple but im new to blueprints and dont really understand it yet. id really appreciate the help!

[wary gyro]

Is 21k polys a good amount for a character model? i think it is because the ue4 mannequins is 23k, but i just wanna be sure

[autumn flame]

Sounds okay

[drowsy snow]

21K is okay, it's more on the mid-end number

[wary gyro]

great! i just wish i could retopo it without it adding artifacts between the fingers

[scenic halo]

just started unreal today. Watching tons of YouTube videos. Do yall have any basic tips?

[oak patio]

use source control and save often

[cinder minnow]

Yes, you should activate the "Ribbon" feature in the Electronic Nodes settings 😉

[drowsy snow]

Take your time, don't start making Battle royale or MMORPG, use source control, and have fun.

does anyone know if deep linking works on Bluestacks?

in UE4?

[rich goblet]

I think im having a stroke. I have 2 vectors and want to rotate from one to the other, but only up to 5deg per frame. If the angle is less than 5deg then great a = b. But if not how do i rotate only 5deg towards the other?

[plush yew]

hey guys. yk how the housing system in animal crossing works, where you interact with the house, and get sent into another level with the interior of the house. how does one do that in ue4?

[drowsy snow]

Just use Open Level node.
Point it to the interior level you want to load. If it's more procedural, you can have the generator BP inside the level and have the seed or list of furnitures in memory/GameInstance.

[plush yew]

thank you kind sir

i was tempted to just make a new level and try to find out a way to tp in there

but im new as hell, so im a bit lost

[clever marsh]

this is awesome thank you I never knew abt this

[fading wolf]

I'm still early into my project but I don't want to head the wrong direction. Is this okay to have my player's movement speed?

[proud abyss]

is there a way to stop this from clipping? the rail is set up as a static mesh with complex as simple collision. the flag part is a skel mesh with cloth simulator added

[drowsy snow]

Do you really need the cloth sim to be as accurate and reactive as possible for that?

I mean, if you're lenient with it, you can just have a simpler vertex displacement or (chained) morph targets.

[proud abyss]

its positioning in the level itself is fairly focal so would need it to be quite accurate, ive managed to mess around with some settings and the overall positioning of it that has reduced the clipping by quite a bit. it will do for now, but i was curious if there was a way to make it better

[drowsy snow]

If accuracy and reactive isn't upmost priority, fake the cloth sim. At least IMHO it's not something that's important enough to have realtime cloth sim going

[exotic pine]

Hi all, i have a technical question. Has anybody ever had an issue with project files whereby they seem to have wiped themselves? Like all files reduced to just 1 main blueprint and 'starter content' ?

I am using Nvidia Developer Caustics edition btw

[safe shoal]

Ignore it. Error list is nonsense. Intellisense is even more nonsense

[spice ruin]

Always use the output log, not errors list.

[drowsy snow]

You can use the Error List, but set the filter to just Build.

Output log would still print the full text tho

[carmine saddle]

Hi, Matt!
Did you find the solution for your issue?
I am trying to render in runtime using ThirdPersonMap, but have the same error. But when I render inside empty Level, render is success

[lost niche]

Is it possible to implement kill cams (that shows the last 5 seconds of killer player's pov) in multiplayer games with DemoNetDriver? Apparently it loads another level to play the replay, hence disconnects the player from the GameServer I believe. Is this something to be handled by the developers to change levels for this or is there another way to do it?

[tawdry shadow]

Hi all would anyone know how to make refelctions work for groom??

I have a plane mirror and a character with groom asset in front of it

But the character is rendered bald in the mirror

Would you guys know how to fix this ?

[surreal eagle]

@lavish sinew i know what version controll was i was just kidding. version controll is how people manage multiple versions of the project so multiple people can work on it at once,and so that there's backups if it ever goes bad

guys don't be like mw and make jokes

you'll lose contracts

[unborn dawn]

Yes I did and it give me this error

[drowsy snow]

Does it actually compile?

Do note that Intellisense sometimes have no idea about the generated headers and macros, and also Super class.

[fallow hornet]

is there a tool to multi select textures and change there maximum texture size?

I have a large amount of textures that I'm working on reducing there current size on to gain some performance

[drowsy snow]

Yes, use Bulk Edit Via Property Matrix. Texture files supports it.

[cedar wave]

And if that is too tedious for you - can whip up a tool that handles it for you in like an hour-ish most likely.

[fallow hornet]

Sweet, I'll try to handle it in the bulk edit

@drowsy snow bulk edit was fast enough, I always forgot about using it
