[magic oriole]

Does anyone know a good way to go about recreating dry areas like this in UE4 without vertex paint? I.e. using a decal to remove the roughness from a material? 🤔

[kindred field]

anyone know why i can walk through the static mesh i create from Geometry shapes ? like i created a house with geometry and converted it to static mesh ... but now my character walks through like a ghost

[frozen pond]

any idea how to fix that? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjxdVwJ_eOY

[grim ore]

@kindred fieldwhen you convert a brush/geometry to a static mesh, it does not generate the collision for you. You need to open the meshes and do that yourself.

[kindred field]

ohhhh thank you thank you

[whole harness]

👋 my blueprint logic is very rusty. I have a use case that I'd like to pick your brains on.

In my scene I have some houses, and I'd like to be able to disable the roofs with one button press. My first thought was to add a tag to the roofs, however most of them are children of a house actor, and as such they don't get picked up by GetAllActorsWithTag. How would you approach this feature?

[lone tapir]

Hey everyone- I'm trying to make a green screen in Unreal, but putting a giant green block into the scene (obviously) messes up my reflections. Is there a way to remove an object from being captured by reflections, or a way to create a material that doesn't show up in reflections?

One of my coworkers told me I could make the material unlit but that didn't work

[shrewd pewter]

I'm building a cinema for VR. I've created one single row of chairs then duplicated it to fill the room. Can someone give me any tips on making this as cheap as possible? Does Unreal auto instance for example? Cheers

[drowsy snow]

Unreal does have auto instancing, so you better up having each chairs its own static meshes.

[shrewd pewter]

so better to have more single chairs than one long static mesh row?

[shrewd pewter]

Also do I have to do anything to turn on auto instancing or does it happen automatically when you copy a mesh? thanks

[drowsy snow]

Yes. It can also helped with view frustum culling.

You can try enable auto instancing with console command r.MeshDrawCommands.DynamicInstancing 1

[shrewd pewter]

Thank you. I tried the command but nothing came up so not sure if its created instancing or not

[fading wolf]

I followed this basic tutorial on damage and death and it was working but now it doesnt seem to be. The health reaches 0 and I can see the death event firing but nothing happens. Also when I check the HP (per player) its still at 100 despite being damaged. I think Its because the server needs to tell the client that their HP is going down but im stuck 🤷‍♂️

[proud abyss]

is there a way that you can make a box trigger only trigger from a certain direction? im making a skate game map, and have a trigger to make some npc's cheer after you land a trick in a certain spot, but it also triggers them to cheer if you were to run in from the other sides to

are mip maps rly supposed to work like that?

[surreal eagle]

Set colision to blockall

[red maple]

By any chance has anyone got a copy of this https://unrealcommunity.wiki/character-wing-suit-controller-z3zokoqk from ages ago... sadly the images are missing and i'm curious to see their BP's.. as i'm hunting down an example of a wingsuit in unreal but am struggling to find more details on this subject.

The part i am stuck on the most is pitch increase/decrease... that is to say I can make my character glide and fall at a rate .. but when they pitch down or up i want to increase/decrease that rate of lift (using lift to determine gravity decay of 9m/sec). .. the tricky part is when you bank Left/right while holding up down i need to make it feel like resistance/force is pushing you in directions.. like say you bank top-left then depending on speed will result in either hard decay in altitude and/or backflip....

[surreal eagle]

i could program this for you maybe

or just use like

the internetarchive

website

[native creek]

Can anybody tell me why the UE Mannequin has his IK bones oriented this way?

[fresh pulsar]

Is there any way to make something only collide with something that has a specific tag

Actually I just want them to collide with walls and floors but not the player

[native creek]

Custom collision in the properties of that object

I'll show you where you can find it on blueprint

@fresh pulsar

Play with these parameters

[fresh pulsar]

Doesn't work it still just clips through everything

paper2d moment

[native creek]

Set it to this

Report results

I'm not familiar with 2D stuff but try it and see

[fresh pulsar]

Hm okay

[fresh pulsar]

Okay it's being weird @native creek it says physics enabled is not compatible with the collision

But it's set to ignore only pawn

[red maple]

i would love an example on this, as it has me stumped for days so far.. so if you know how to pull it off i'd love that!

[red maple]

wayback doesn't appear to have this one archived when i checked 😭

[frosty dune]

Can anybody help i cant open epic game launcher

[peak hare]

Hi, I am having real problems getting Unreal Insights set up, could anyone help? I want to do some performance profiling

[fallow jackal]

When making a game, do you need to think about graphic settings beforehand or does UE have graphic settings that can be applied at the end of development?

[fresh pulsar]

I'm having collision problems aaa

[bleak zodiac]

normally decide the art style, the engine has some feature to help improve the final and to optimize and check for issues

[fallow jackal]

I mean like graphic settings for users, low, medium , high etc

[fierce tulip]

there are settings you'll need to take care off yourself. unreal does a lot already under the hood, but there are things you'll need to set up yourself.

[drowsy snow]

Particularly with post process settings, typically you want it to be as granular as possible

[fierce tulip]

same with materials, textures, effects

[drowsy snow]

Speaking of which, the underrated Scalability Switch should be used to have more fine tune on the material's complexity.

Also scalability switch on per actor basis

https://docs.unrealengine.com/4.27/en-US/TestingAndOptimization/PerformanceAndProfiling/Scalability/ScalabilityReference/

[frosty dune]

I just want to get rid of unreal engine and epic games launcher is not opening

Plz help

😭

[drowsy snow]

Just... Get rid of it?

You can just delete the engine folder into oblivion safely

And maybe install Unity in the process :P

[peak hare]

If I set print string duration to 0 does that mean infinite?

[drowsy snow]

No, it's just printing for a frame.

If you do so, you should disable printing to output log.

[frosty dune]

I know you can just click delete and it will delete it
But its not working

I tried to delete it from file location too
But still not working

[frosty dune]

Yeah why not
I will download it if my potato laptop can handle it

[worthy plaza]

kinda stucked, this strange square apparead and now i can't do nothing, what i can do for fix ?

this square is located in the main viewport, in the middle of software

[tulip iron]

I'm new to ue4

I know how to use it sort of, though I need to learn blueprints and how to create meshes etc

Where should I learn? (Easiest way)

[drowsy snow]

Move around another tab to the viewport, and bring it back once it disappears

if i want an AI ennemy to deal damage to the player on contact do i need to add a collision capsule to both of them?

[floral girder]

Does anyone know if sound is outputted to the player camera IE the one in the character blueprint or does it output to whatever camera the player is looking through like a security camera or something like that

[sturdy thunder]

running into this really weird issue

[floral cliff]

Is their a way to merge actor in a non destructive way ? Like, they are merged on package, but not in editor.

[untold plank]

yo

I just started unreal engine 4

and it's confusing asf

especially since I come from unity, which I have all my experience in

[plush yew]

why use unreal engine 4 when 5 just came out

[untold plank]

My pc is trash

[quartz ore]

Did you hop in here just to say that or...?

[untold plank]

nah ima 100% need help in the future

[floral cliff]

cause 5 is buggy, some feature deprecated, and cost more on performance side.

[unique kraken]

anyone can give me some info on what "rig vm" is?

[drowsy snow]

Basically Control Rig's blueprint VM

[unique kraken]

uuuh?

[drowsy snow]

It's not the same as the one used by Actor BPs

[unique kraken]

well

[drowsy snow]

Virtual machine is basically interpreter for scripting languages.

[unique kraken]

well im not using scripts. i stick to bp i was just wondering bcs i think i earlier had a node like "set parameter rig vm" or so

just wondered if its possible to directly set variables now

[drowsy snow]

Control Rig's BP isn't as expansive as Actor BPs, but in terms of performance, it's more lightweight than AnimBP, so overhead is pretty slim.

[drowsy snow]

I haven't checked into that yet, I usually just pass vars to Control Rig via anim BP. Maybe that's something to do with Control Rig component?

[unique kraken]

well that whole part is relativly confusing but. what i had was.

1. bp->animbp->ctrl rig
2. to creat animations bp with ctrl rig component and do stuff directly in the bp

though 2. is really not convenient

[drowsy snow]

The former is definitely more convenient and offers more granular control in anim BP.

[unique kraken]

yea but for some things (if i remember right) you have to use the component.
ill soon get back into ctrl rig

gotta do some setups for my shapekeys

[drowsy snow]

I never used the component, it's hard to get working compared to just have inviso but ticking proxy skelmesh

[unique kraken]

yea just looked at my old setup. i scred the component to and just passed things through

[solid sand]

im really sorry to interrupt anyone or anything but is this the "help" channel?

nvm im really slow

[dawn gull]

So I know you can see if a widget button was clicked by using the event clicked node but is there a way to differentiate left clicks and right clicks? I want to do something only if I right click the button and another thing if I left click it

[dawn gull]

General help, yeah

[solid sand]

so are the channels for specific things under the content creation tab or is that just an area kinda like a share and tell?

im sorry im just very very confused at the moment

[dawn gull]

theyre for more specific questions, so try to ask your question there first. So if you're having a problem with audio stuff you ask the question in #audio but for a quicker general answer you ask here

[solid sand]

ah. alright. thank you sir/ma'am

lord im fried. i apologize if i have offended you with that statement

[dawn gull]

nah youre good, im a dude

[solid sand]

phew. dodged a bullet there

i never mean to do that but every once in a while i forget and get "yelled" at

[modern ether]

Ive got what is probably a really simple question, how do I get the lighting to not be crazy high on my level?

It seems like when I start playing, its almost bouncing so much it gets incredibly bright

[solid sand]

add a post process volume if i understand your question correctly, turn on infinite extent(Unbound) and then play around with the exposure bars until you find the right bright

[modern ether]

Kinda, and I appreciate the response. It seems to just get this bright no matter what?

That floor material is suppose to be near black lol

Found a quick video that turned off the crazy exposure amounts using the post process volume, thanks!

[vernal rapids]

Has anybody successfully imported .pskx files into blender?
I exported ue4 files via UModel Viewer but when I try to import the pskx it is a mess and there is no skeleton.

Importing the .uasset into UE4 for FBX export isn’t an option either, because when I click on the asset it gives me an error that it can’t load it…

The mesh gets inside blender but I can’t do anything without its armature

[dire jewel]

Hey all. Awesome to be here. Thanks for the invite. Any other Photogrammetrist in the house 🙂

[heady dirge]

Ngl looks amazing

All I managed to photoscan was a rock 😂

[dire jewel]

Thank you! Yeah, straight from RC to UE4 with literally no manual process. Does the LODs, insane decimation from raw photography, retopology, fills in missing gaps, removes noise, removes floatersr, delights, and we'll soon have roughness and other such maps computed. Takes about 14 hours on a Threadripper 16 core and a P6000

[dire jewel]

hahahahaha. Yeah. Alleyways, rocks and shoes are our rright of passage 😄

[heady dirge]

Damn that's an insane WorkFlow

[dire jewel]

Started on Agisoft Photoscan way back in 2014. Its a good package.

[heady dirge]

😂 my poor i5 4460 died to do that one rock

[dire jewel]

Yeah, and its completely automatic. We just added LiDAR noise removal last night, so when its finished, literally just hit reimport.

[heady dirge]

Sheeesh

[dire jewel]

Literally tackles straight frorm the .raw 4Bn. None of this decimation to 60m / zBrush Decimation Master shiz.

So your rreprojection of textures is that much better as its super shrinkwrapped.

The LOD is pretty powerrful too. We got the scene at about 30m but you can get easily only 400-600k polys showing on screen at any given time.

[heady dirge]

Damn

[dire jewel]

Anyhoe. Feel like I'm bragging now. But yeah. Virtual Textures are doing good, need a hand with tweaking though. Don't quite get it, use to use Granite, was a fair bit easier. If theres any Virtual Texture wizards in the house that and anyone whos good at OpenXR level design. Would love to colab.

[dire jewel]

Awww. Damn! Rough man.

[heady dirge]

Tbh I made a mistake with it too I used my phone as a camera with the 48 megapixel mode little did I know it had AI enabled and added a lot of stuff that wasn't there and ruined it a bit

[cinder cargo]

Hey so basically I wanna mod this game called hello neighbor 2 and idk how to. Is there a way to get the unreal project of the game so I can mod it and stuff?

[oak patio]

Yeah you dont just get the source files like that, this isnt a server for discussing unsolicited modding

[cinder cargo]

Oh man. Do you know of one I could join?

[oak patio]

Nope and i wouldnt advertise it here anyway, sorry

[tepid haven]

So I downloaded the ue4 binary source from github and I'm trying to load a project but I need the plugins. I tried copying the specific plugin folder to my plugins folder within the engine plugins folder but it still says it's missing so I regenerated the project files and built again but it still says the plugin is missing

Any idea what I would be missing

[elder ridge]

You have to copy the Plugins to the specific project's Plugins folder

[coarse turtle]

How can you change your BP code so that the load is spread across multiple ticks. You get only one event tick per actor. Can you duplicate the tick function and call it Tick2 then use it. So you have two per actor.

were you able to figure this out?

[surreal eagle]

does anyone know how to see if the ai can reach a location from it's current position (pls ping to repsond)

[ebon marlin]

Yeah, do you mean setting up custom tick functions?

Or conceptually decoupling logic from rendering?

[surreal eagle]

how do i check if an ai can reach a location from it's current position

i have a world vector that says the ai's intended destination,and i would like to check on the navmesh if it has a valid path to reach the location.

there's a "navmesh valid" but it returns true every time. for an example,i'm trying to see if the ai is on a platform or something and the player isn't on the same platform. this would make it unable to reach the player,and [i'd like to tell the ai to stop trying to move,and just stand still in a pose so that it can use long range mode.(i don't need help on telling it how to shoot,just to stop trying to walk)]

[clear stirrup]

does anyone know how to make a boss battle or if you can send a video because i can not find one that helps me

[drowsy snow]

Do you already have a working combat mechanics?

[clear stirrup]

no

[drowsy snow]

Then work on that first.

[mortal swan]

Hi, couldnt find a troubleshooting channel so thought id ask here

I have attacks in my game but I dont want the animation/function to repeat everytime I click the button, I want each animation to end first before allowing me to attack again

basically if I click repeatedly my character looks like he's having a seizure

instead of punching once 🙂

let me share my screen with you 😮

does this help?

ok sorry im really new started relearning unreal last week, so I right click and create variable, then put it in between the red mouse click and the anim play

oooh cool!

does this look better now?

punching makes me feel goood

https://tenor.com/view/working-anakin-starwars-gif-4653092

ill probably end up adding a slight delay too afterwards

think i found it 🙂

what is notifies haha

Paragon greystone is on marketplace right?

can I just copy the code from paragon greystone and use it as my own?

after making changes ofc

😉

awesome thanks for your time

dw ill be back soon (im noob)

[scenic dune]

hey anyone know how to import Metahuman to Unreal Engine 4.25 version

the files appear in my file explorer however in content browser its not

[plush yew]

Sup Guys I Have A Question I am Working On A Multiplayer FPS Game, And I got everything working decent, but one thing. Once I Connect to a lobby, the multiplayer names duplicate in two so they are basically the same . Can Someone please help me thank you

[scenic dune]

you mean character name ?

[plush yew]

Yes

[scenic dune]

in lobby they have to type a name ?

[plush yew]

Yes in the main menu

they need to enter a name

[scenic dune]

the name variable in replicated ?

[plush yew]

I guess so let me check again wait a sec

So basically this is the variabe at the right

Entered PlayerName

[scenic dune]

is it replicated ?

[plush yew]

Hang on im trying to find it lol

Nope

It was not

[scenic dune]

oh try enabling it

[plush yew]

Is that the only thing that I need to do than?

[scenic dune]

yea probably

[plush yew]

Wait

The first thing works

Lets see if the lobby updates @scenic dune

[scenic dune]

alr

[plush yew]

Nope still the same

look

Playing on a listen server

[scenic dune]

Not ready is the name ?

[plush yew]

See its still the same

The chat updates it good

But the players dont sync well for some reason

[scenic dune]

OnTextChanged > SetName

try with event

[plush yew]

Sorry Im not that smart how do i do that ?

[scenic dune]

hmm leme try to do it

[plush yew]

You can send ss how you do it or i will send you my project if you want

[scenic dune]

i will try and send you screenshot

[plush yew]

Oh nice

You mean this ?

@scenic dune

[scenic dune]

leme try

[plush yew]

Okay ill wait

[untold plank]

uhh

what do I use instead of Client Play Camera Shake

it doesn't exist anymore

[summer ledge]

Been given a project and I’m trying to move the sun but ctrl+L isn’t working. Any ideas how I can get this to work?

[clever marsh]

do you have the sky sphere in?

So i have a multiplayer replicated health system and everytime i throw a punch it takes health from me. I suspect this is because the colliders from the hands are hitting myself. Is there any way to run a branch to make sure the collider isnt taking damage from the client when they punch

its only a small amount i guess whenever the hand clips me

[scenic dune]

@clever marshmaybe try adding an branch before giving damage to check if hit player = self then do nothing

[clever marsh]

oh thats a great idea lemme try

wait how would I even run that

[scenic dune]

wdym

[clever marsh]

how would I run a branch checking if it is hitting myself

what would i connect the self node to

[scenic dune]

wait i will show

[clever marsh]

okay thanks

[clever marsh]

yeah but if i do that it wont hurt the other player

[scenic dune]

you tried ?

[clever marsh]

yeah

how do i get a ref to the capsule like that tho

[scenic dune]

i used the Capsule as an example

you can use your collision u have on your fist

[clever marsh]

it wont connect to the target though

[scenic dune]

Maybe try getting the is overlapping from that

[clever marsh]

oh smart

that works thank you so much that was such a headache lol

[scenic dune]

glad to hear that

[fringe merlin]

Hey everyone, in need of some help please! So I have a triangle that I am trying to apply a border material to, but its not applying to the triangle in the right way, any ideas how I could resize the mat/texture so it fits the border of the triangle? Thanks!

Guess it's got something to do with the UV's right?

[oblique tangle]

Hi all! Hope everyone is doing alright, is it possible if I could get some feedback on this? Something feels off about it to me, but I can't tell if that's just me being pedantic - still needs some polish + vfx/sfx, and some web effects are missing whilst zipping forward https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEkx5-I6I74&ab_channel=gibb0

[boreal mauve]

Hello everyone! Hope it's the right channel to ask this question: I know that there is an option to export physics asset, but how to import it back? I have to copy physics asset from one skeletal mesh to another, but joint names are different, even though the structure is similar. I though about exporting physics asset, changing names in exported text file and import it back. But there is no import button!

Anyone know how to fix the fortnite plugin error, I get this but I don't even have fortnite?

[stone stump]

hey guys i followed a tutorial on how to add helicopters and the issue is when i press my key my player wont get in anyone know why?

[drowsy snow]

I mean, is plastering Freddy Fazbear pic like it's a malware even necessary?

[violet nest]

guys I need help he's looking right at me, I need this fixed man...

[drowsy snow]

#ue5-general

[ashen sleet]

oh

oops xd

[drowsy snow]

Show the code for that part.

[drowsy snow]

I'm not completely against Discord roleplay, but plastering Freddy Fazbear pic all over the screen, and obscuring the editor, is not helpful for us.

[violet nest]

I'm giving you what you need

you have the line

[stone stump]

CR is sent SS

[violet nest]

i just like fnaf at freddy's ok

[stone stump]

Is it like my thirdperson blueprint is not the one actually playing @drowsy snow ?

[buoyant granite]

:triangular_flag_on_post: Breeze#0001 received strike 1. As a result, they were muted for 10 minutes.

[drowsy snow]

Not entirely sure how this is going, can you debug the part that doesn't work?

[stone stump]

how can i do that iam a bit new to the engine

😄

one more thing bro allthough my transforms(pivot point) is good in my 3d software after i import it gets messed up why is that?

[drowsy snow]

Make sure to set the debug object to the correct actor instance in the BP editor when playing, and then see the flow on the code when you try to enter the vehicle

[drowsy snow]

What tool are you using?

[stone stump]

blender

[drowsy snow]

Okay, then you need to reset location transforms first

[stone stump]

the mesh is alright but when in unreal the pivot point messes up

ok

let me try that

the button on top right when importing right?

[drowsy snow]

Actually it's Alt+G (at least with default hotkeys)

For some reason the world transform in the scene got applied when exporting to FBX and bringing it to Unreal, not sure which end caused this

[stone stump]

do you think the world transforms is affecting the player enter to the helicopter?

[drowsy snow]

Not sure. You haven't said anything about what's going on with the code when you debug it.

[stone stump]

i have to send you the message log right?

[drowsy snow]

Not the message log, but what happens with the code itself. Does it stop in the validation branch? Is one or more nodes triggers but does nothing?

[stone stump]

how can i check that?

iam new bro, really no clue how these things work

[glacial arch]

any clue why my "add engine version" button is greyed out?

lmao the fix is so silly

you gotta click on your library tab so it logs you in and then it stops being greyed out

[proper stump]

Hey, looking at the Unity Asset Store (yeah..), it has some nice stylized environments. Thinking of trying to migrate one to UE, I'm guessing the models are easy to move but what about materials/shaders?

[drowsy snow]

But first, make sure the licence permits using the assets in other engine/renderers.

[proper stump]

sure, that is also a consideration, from what I see it's do-able

[manic egret]

Depends if they are terrain assets they probably wont come across. If they are meshes it would be fine but you'd have to recreate the shaders

[regal linden]

Hi folks! I'm not sure if I'm on the right channel but I'll try! can someone please help me? what am I doing wrong here? all new to unreal just trying to create a forest scene for my house. I followed a YouTube tutorial about how to make landscapes and so on and then this happened. Any idea what's wrong? (Talking about the blurry edges haha)

[night laurel]

Hi everyone. Just need some help. If I spawn in a character, then click on it I have a widget that shows it's current stats. But It only ever shows the stats of the very first spawn. How can I get it to show the stats of the character I click on? Thanks in advance!

[tepid haven]

I can't be the only idiot who's accidentally hit rebuild when attempting to build the engine right?

[modest trench]

I have done that a few times, yep

[rich kayak]

hey guys. I am with a odd bug here on my engine for a long time but. I really wanted it to go. Sometimes for really no reason. I when I pick a node, nothing shows up. But if I write and do usual, it works. Its just invisible.
Or the loading shaders its blinking from black to load numbers, also if I click on Edit or any tab I dont see the drop down. Any idea on fix?

[hollow jay]

On which channel should I ask about rigging and skeletal meshes?

[unique kraken]

just wanna confirm something.
does anyone know if, when i set up my physics constraints in ue4, they will also later work in ue5´s chaos? or will i have to redo? or unknown yet?

[plush yew]

ok i got a question

if i am building an api for a scripting backend

and im offering to use python as the default language...

is there any reason i might want to "boil down" the engine's assembly access into some common functions? that is, to limit the use of engine assemblies to features just concerned with my project?

i can imagine some cheating being enabled by full access to my game engines assemblies to any modder

but im not making a multiplayer game

i understand this aint a unity discord. but that what im working with and this is in general rather than engine specific

dont ask why im here rather than there

lol

anyone??

[surreal eagle]

hi everyone

why does my ai sequence node only execute stuff once?

it will cycle through everyhing ONCE

and not every time

[surreal eagle]

neat. good movement

[surreal eagle]

I HATE COMPUTERS

[plush yew]

ok so i think it would be prudent for you to learn and understand how to ask good questions so that we can help you

if you want help then saying something like youve said here isnt helping us help you at all. we need details. code. screenshots if its visual scripting. a description or a video demonstrating your problem.

[surreal eagle]

ok one sec i didn't think i'd get a response

[plush yew]

im not an expert or even intermediate in UE. im a unity dev. tried switching to UE but i can lend some expertise if need be

[surreal eagle]

ye dw

so the thing i circled in pink only goes once,and the fire at target executes each time this is executed

[plush yew]

i beleive that if you want this to occur more than once you are going to require a loop

[surreal eagle]

printstr only executes on the first executuon

[surreal eagle]

OH

[plush yew]

loops are for repetitions. iterations.

[surreal eagle]

it would stop doing something it it returns true one time right huh

[plush yew]

your end condition must make sense though. careful of infinite loops

[surreal eagle]

wel i just want it to do both things i have hooked up to it every time the ai updates it's graph

[plush yew]

yes. computers are sequential machines, in spite of their appearance. they execute everything in front of them in sequence.

[meager elbow]

So when I've got Lidar data in Unreal, the ocean is always a big flat area. Is there a way to select this 'polygon' and then put a height gradient on it to give me a basic seafloor that matches the edges of that polygon?

[plush yew]

heightmap perhaps?

[meager elbow]

The lidar data is a heightmap.

[surreal eagle]

i think a 3d modeling software like blender is better for editing polygons

[plush yew]

ah

[meager elbow]

Ahh okay.

[plush yew]

sorry bud wish i knew

[meager elbow]

No worries

[plush yew]

but im sure it exists. its a common use case

think ive wore this kb out

[surreal eagle]

happens

[plush yew]

its starting to really throw a fit

hunk f junk

its a walmart onn kb lmao

[surreal eagle]

so why would the ai not execute all pins each time it's pinged?

it makes no sense

[plush yew]

explain

visually

[surreal eagle]

ok

if i execute this thing

it will print the string ONE time

but will execute the second one every time

[plush yew]

ohh i get it now. hold up. you need to connect your fire_at_Target or your printstr back to your node above to form a loop

[surreal eagle]

i want the ai's sequence to do ALL the things conected under it every time

[plush yew]

ok

so connect your printstr to your fire_at_target and then to your within reasonable rang stop moving and fire at player

[surreal eagle]

maybe if i put another sequence under it

it still will do it

it executes the first pin once

then the next

but NEVER executes the first person twice

[plush yew]

https://www.reddit.com/r/unrealengine/comments/e2f89l/another_noob_question_how_does_sequence_node_works/

[surreal eagle]

thank you

[plush yew]

yes np

but again. i think you need a loop above your top node

to cause it to fire in repitition

[surreal eagle]

ah it must not execute something twice if it returns true

it'll keep executing untill they all are true

[plush yew]

i think you ought to connect your printstr to your fire_at_player node, add a loop above your top node, and then try it

disconnect your fire_at_player from the top node

[surreal eagle]

printstr had it's completion condition set to true

THIS MAKES SO MUCH MORE SENSE

[plush yew]

lmao

noice

[surreal eagle]

oh no now it won't go further than anything that returns false noooooo

[plush yew]

hold up

do this. @surreal eagle

[surreal eagle]

they don't connect like that

[plush yew]

lol i was afraid of that

sooo

[surreal eagle]

AHHHH

[plush yew]

duplicate that sequence. put it between them

[surreal eagle]

the issue with sequences is that they care about the conditions

[plush yew]

that makes logical sense

[surreal eagle]

a lot of these are simple "set" nodes

and i need something set every frame or so

gonna read all the nodes

[plush yew]

good idea

[surreal eagle]

these things are a pain

i don't see why this can't just be normal

oh no

there's no simle sequential execution node

ok i solved it

just have everything set to false

and put it under a selector

just have the last thing on the selector be true maybe idfk

ok so i made a node with the sole purpose to return true

[unique kraken]

anyone knows if i can creat puplic variable by using bp? i mean, having a node that creats them

[upper karma]

nvm, site was just acting funky

[unique kraken]

i should make a website or a tutorial on how to ask questions on discord just so i can send it to ppl

thats only 25% of the way

1. what is it u are trying to do.
2. what did you do
3. what problem accured
4. when did that problem accure.

no

[surreal eagle]

2

[surreal eagle]

idk lemme see

personally i'd just reccomend using a array of wildcard refs

[unique kraken]

hmm

never used wildcards

hmm i dont see how wildcards would allow me to creat variables

[surreal eagle]

wildcards can be anything

the array can be used to create new array elements of wildcard type

[unique kraken]

yea that i do get but thats not rly what i want

i want to be able to creat a puplic variable from bp´s

[surreal eagle]

it'd have the effect of a new var

[unique kraken]

can you be a bit more specific? i cant imagine how you imagine that

[drowsy snow]

Please see #rules no. 7

[unique kraken]

ah, that guys still spamming me. blocked him a while ago

[surreal eagle]

ok so make an array of wildcards

if you need to make a new varible,have a "add array elem" thing

it won't make a var on runtime but it's the best i can do

it would work similar

[unique kraken]

hmmmm

thats not what i need hmmm

thanks anyway, wildcards might come in handy. i guess ill rethink what im doing here

[wispy heart]

Hey guys, as I mentioned a while back, I'm doing a final project for my degree based on UE4. And I need to gather some data for it as a requirement. Due to a lack of unreal engine devs in my country, I can't really reach out to anyone except those on discord (issue is that the data needs to be gathered from people in the field of UE4 development). So I was wondering if there are any experts who would be willing to volunteer to answer a 3 minute survey for my project? I have a list of some of the guys who have helped me so far but I don't want to directly ping them

You don't even need to be an expert but yeah

My ideal candidates were:
WizardCell
CE
Yinsei
Daekesh
Niyo
Lorash
Frigarius
HoJo
Dieter

Sooo if any of you guys are willing to, let me know ✌️

[scenic dune]

survey ?

[wispy heart]

alright send me

[tepid haven]

I'm stumped. I have a function library that I'm trying to pull into a different project I copied the files over to the source of my new project and I rebuilt the ue4 engine and rebuilt the game project and the c++ classes is still not showing in the content browser and the methods from the function library aren't showing up either

[wary gyro]

why is this happening when i use my normal map? it looks perfect in blender

[bleak zodiac]

check your UV's

[wary gyro]

the UVS should be fine, considering the base map works

[spice ruin]

Check your normals then?

[fierce tulip]

dont make maps by splitting characters in half. this isnt 2003 XD

[wary gyro]

easier, and pretty unnoticable

i have the same setup in blender and it works perfect? Is there anything extra i have to do when importing it into ue4?

[fierce tulip]

it would be pretty unnoticable, but because its flipped, you are actively flipping the normal map as well

so that messes it up

which is why --ever since normal maps where introduced-- that approach has slowly lost its appeal.

you can flip the normals with some shader math, but better to just not use this approach anymore. (and required additional math/uv setups)

[wary gyro]

what's happening now? sorry for asking so many questions this is my first time importing normals into ue4

[fierce tulip]

hmm, seems to look like a smoothing group issue

[wary gyro]

how can i fix that?

[fierce tulip]

i dont use blender, prolly searching on google for "blender edit smoothing groups" might give you the right results.

[stone stump]

Hey guys although i applied transforms in blender when i import a static mesh to Unreal engine the pivot point is messed up

anyone please help me

[oak patio]

Unreal uses 0,0,0 as pivot so center ur models around origin

[unborn dew]

why does this not work the name of the function is decrement

[drowsy snow]

Decrement in all lowercaps?

I think Function Name is FString, not FName, so it could be case sensitive

[unborn dew]

tried that it doesnt work

whats weird is that it works when spawned in

[drowsy snow]

Okay, just noticed that:

1. You're executing on Event Destroyed/End Play. If you're executing something in the actor, it'll be pointless.
2. You have nothing on Object input.

[stone stump]

I just had to Untick an option when importing thats it

thanks anyways

[unborn dew]

so i should just hide the object?

[oak patio]

Generally you shouldnt execute when you destroy something, that defeats the point of destruction

[neon grove]

how can i get the wave height of the water plugin?

[unborn dew]

so i should change where it is executed?

[oak patio]

Yes

[drowsy snow]

Also make sure Object input points to something

You have none in that screenshot

Hi guys! Please help me I can’t do it anymore. I have tried to change materials in my project in three different ways following youtube videos because I have to do this foi my architecture school project and all of them failed and I don’t know why. I will be sending some photos of my blueprints, but my problem is that when I click on the material button that is supposed to make the change on the material of the floor, nothing happens, it does not even click. You can see in the last image, the OK button clicks normal but the three squares with the materials do not click and/or change the material. Thank you so much for anyone who might be able to help me I’m desperate.

[wraith aspen]

Your code is fine. Are you sure the button click function was actually called?

[chrome mason]

So i have an error, that indicate a "add to viewport" failure, which i have narrowed down to a specific spot. I am attempting to call a "host menu" setup screen. There are two instances of this object listed, the file path is identical,(/game/folder/widget.widget c) i can add both

however

when im trying to use a "Create widget" and connect a return value to a " set variable" i get an error

[candid slate]

Thank you for the answer! What do you mean by that? I don't understand sorry

When I click on the OK button it works fine, but the others don't

[wraith aspen]

Add a breakpoints to any node after the click event to see if they are called

[candid slate]

How do I do that?

[wraith aspen]

Right click any node to add breakpoint

[candid slate]

Ok I got it here, it goes through the whole function but it still doesn't change the floor material somehow

[wraith aspen]

Make sure you're swapping the right material slot

[prisma swan]

Apologies if this has been asked before, but does anyone know any way to intuitively import assets from the Unreal Marketplace (or other sources) into specific folders? As an example, importing the Animation Starter Pack from Marketplace would create an "AnimStarterPack" file in my Content Browser within the engine. I'd want to split the content of this (textures, materials, animations, blueprints) into designated folders within the content browser, but the engine seems to not allow this. Does anyone know a good resource for learning how to move and manage files in Unreal?

[fierce tulip]

generally its just moving the folders/files around in content browser > fix redirectors > repeat.

[chrome mason]

ive somewhat isolated my issue down to my game instance not seeing the widget i am trying to call

[prisma swan]

@fierce tulip Thank you! I was having trouble moving from one asset folder to another that was earlier in pathing - looks like I just needed to open a new content window for the folder.

hello, i'm having some game thread performance problems and i was trying to use unreal insights to give me a bit more understanding about what is causing the problems

I am trying to set up androidr studio and when I run the setupandroid.bat in the unreal engine folder I get this error.

[zealous juniper]

I've just started using unreal and i'm having trouble where I want the scene to be unlit.

How I'm doing it currently is in level BP I have it run a console command to change the view mode to unlit which works when I just play it in the window. However when I package the project and run it the viewmode doesn't seem to be unlit.

I assume i'm not supposed to just run a console command like that but im not sure exactly how to get the default lighting to be unlit.
How should I go about this.

ok will try.

I changed the materials to unlit and packaged but it still seems that the environment is still lit? like there is still a glow that kind of makes the material darker in color and I want the material color to be unaffected.

hey guys while using ALS V4 I'm trying to get rid of swinging arms animations while the pawn is falling, I managed the get rid of it while the player is not moving but I couldnt do the same for moving/running.

I also have experience in making textures in substance designer

Im def down to learn blender too

how can i downgrade a project from 4.27 chaos source to launcher 4.27?

Can I get some feedback on this? In particular, the webs whilst zipping forward on the ground

[real heath]

AFAIK you probably can't easily move back to a launcher 4.27. You can move to a source 4.27 with a higher version/compatibility number.

or you can probably move to a launcher ue5

https://docs.unrealengine.com/4.27/en-US/ProgrammingAndScripting/ProgrammingWithCPP/UnrealArchitecture/VersioningAssetsAndPackages/

you MIGHT be able to change your CompatibleChangelist number

[unique kraken]

wondered for a while now. why, when i set something into a bp, its so offset? why doesnt it simply use the origin to put it to the capsule?

[drowsy snow]

Character BP?

[unique kraken]

yea

i mean, why doesnt it simply set my things right

[scenic dune]

show screenshot

[unique kraken]

always have to manually adjust things

[drowsy snow]

Because the capsule itself is the root component, and when you adjust the height, it scales to/from the center. Then CMC makes it gravitational, which caused the aforementioned extra effort

[unique kraken]

so in other words i cant really "export it perfectly"

[drowsy snow]

Aside from a hacky math to align the mesh to bottom point of the capsule, no

[unique kraken]

i mean not a big deal, been just wondering for ever. guess it makes sense

but its sorta dumb

Anyone have experience with using OpenCV and Unreal? I'm getting this strange error which was never thrown before error C4668: '__GNUC__' is not defined as a preprocessor macro, replacing with '0' for '#if/#elif'

And this warning warning C4946: reinterpret_cast used between related classes: 'cv::Matx<double,4,1>' and 'cv::Scalar_<double>'

[drowsy snow]

Isn't OpenCV an image processing library? What are you doing with it?

[wispy heart]

That's right, I'm generating some images based on landscape info for my uni project

Funny thing is it was working without any errors or issues uptil now

And I haven't changed the code 🙂

[drowsy snow]

Not sure how outputting material to render target is not a viable option

[wispy heart]

I'm almost done with this project, with like 3 days left. The idea was to prove this concept of mine works, not to use already existing methods

Seems like that error is actually a warning but Unreal has elevated its severity to error for some reason

I got around it, I hope XD

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/956597730623496212/970721527978922034/unknown.png

[fierce tulip]

did you migrate to an older version? else it should work.

[cinder cargo]

How do u sync them?

[raw trout]

can i safely delete cooked content? while packaging from a usb stick i forgot all the cooked content would fill onto the usb stick itself and now its so full i cant save my project hah

[wary gyro]

this is probably a dumb question, but how do i generate a lightmap uv on a skeletal mesh?

[fierce tulip]

you cant

[tight vapor]

I have a problem with my widget. It doesn't display any red color

[wary gyro]

is this shading issue from my mesh? it goes away when i remove the normal map

[grave aspen]

@wary gyro make sure your texture asset in unreal is set to be interpretted as a normal map and srgb is turned off, then make sure your texture sample in your material is set up accordingly as well, if the issue persists after than, on the texture asset turn on flip green channel

[wary gyro]

flip green channel did the job, thank you so much!

[grave aspen]

:: now hides away to the voice channels as the text channels frighten me ::

[floral cliff]

did someone experience slow light build when using with incredibuild ?

[sturdy thunder]

would anyone know how I would implement deep linking in unreal?

with android?

i keep getting unknown errors when copying the default active deeplinking behavior from unreal's website, separated by /n

for each line

[drowsy snow]

Is Sub Font Family not working for you?

[gleaming lotus]

Haven't tried that, doesn't that work per character? We've got a lot of languages we cover so it might take a whiiiiiile to cover every character

I might be mistaken about how it works

[drowsy snow]

You can map certain Unicode range to specific Sub Font family. I used it in my project to use Noto Sans JP for Chinese and Japanese charset.

Have yet to find a good one for Korean tho

[gleaming lotus]

Thanks I'll check it out tomorrow!

[ember star]

I'm ray tracing in front of me to see what item is closest. When I pick up/equip the actor to my character, it starts to block this trace

What's the right solution? on 'equip' do i change the actor's collision settings?

[silver bronze]

Hello everyone good evening. I am trying to implement gravity on to an internal circular ring like the “Halo” Ring Planet. I am using 4.26.

[plush yew]

Take negative the vector pointing from the center of the Ring to the character...

Sorry I meant positive Vector if you want to gravity

That or keep gravity pointing straight down and move the world around underneath them

[spice ruin]

Like a giant hamster wheel.

[gleaming lotus]

Three options here:
Make a collision channel for items that are held and make them ignore this trace

When an item is picked up, make it ignore the trace

Make your trace ignore items in the array on the trace node.

[plush yew]

In my humble opinion if you can't figure out the vector math direct Gravity the way you needed to in a project you have no business making it a game like that

[oak patio]

yeha if you cannot figure the math behind the physics, you dont have the experience to make a game around said physics

[karmic dagger]

how i know the compatibility number?

[real heath]

VersionInfo.h or something in the engine source dir

Hi,
Has this happened to anyone before? Have you been able to figure out why it happens?
When I press play, the lighting seems to just go super bright, but I've never edited anything to do so. It's happened on multiple versions of UE4 and on different OS installations (win10/11)
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CuWAkQdY7LdGKDO7es4q3Hvwe9wTY6db/view?usp=sharing

[fierce tulip]

isnt this just auto-exposure?

[peak vigil]

So there's two meshes I'm trying to import to UE4 from Blender, I can export them seperately into one fbx, but when I trying to join the two meshes with ctrl+j UE4 won't let me and says Mesh Mesh.001 in the fbx file is not reference by any hierarchy node.

[worthy plaza]

Hello, its possible to create an Event when the timeline reaches a certain float?

[drowsy snow]

What's Ctrl+J supposed to do in UE4?

[peak vigil]

combine two meshes into one

[drowsy snow]

Not in Unreal, no.

[peak vigil]

Oh, yeh, I mean in Blender

[plush yew]

can anyone help me using data tables or tell me an alternative I can use for an inventory system

[spice ruin]

What are you using the data tables for? Specifically.

[plush yew]

Well currently I have one setup for an item list

I believe they're read only aren't they

what I'm trying to do is find a row by what's in a column

in sql it would be

SELECT * FROM `table` WHERE 'id' = "2" 

idk if that helps

shits confusing the fuck outta me

teacher telling me to Google it and u looked everywhere but I'm to stupid lol

[drowsy snow]

You can get the row by its Name, but that's as far as you can get.
Data Tables are based on structs, so not as easy as finding by one part.

[plush yew]

what's the row name

one moment

[spice ruin]

If you want fast lookup in lots of rows, use a map?

Do blueprints have maps yet?

[plush yew]

the way it works right now is you pick up an item. by its ID

if I set the row name to the item. I'd

id

would that work

[spice ruin]

Probably, yes.

[plush yew]

alright, secondly

because data tables are read only

how can I make an object of arrays

ornan array of arrays

because I'm a javascript / node.js developer by trade

so I'd code it easily but I am forced to use blueprints which confuses me

I know enough c++ to code it but I don't know

cause typically you'd have the slot name, item Id and quantity

but because I can't use a data table I'm oblivious on what to do

[spice ruin]

An object of arrays?

If you want an array of arrays, you simply... make an object of arrays.

Create a struct which contains an array.

Then make an array of that struct.

[drowsy snow]

I'd either use enums or exploiting class inheritance.

So say every item class is child of a BP class, for example BP_MasterItem. When you go near into it or look at it, do some casting as the BP_MasterItem class. If it succeed, do the pick up event.

For something like player going near it then prompt, the master item class would have a trigger collision and on begin overlap function, something like this:

Cast other actor (or the collider overlapping the collision) as your character class (can be optimised with collision channels), then either call the prompt event or the pick up event.

[plush yew]

thank you for your help. I'll research it

[charred bramble]

Hello!👋

Is there any way to blend anims through blueprints? (not animation blueprint)
Let say I have an anim play through blueprints and then want to seamlessly blend it with my idle animation (animation mode) while in game.
Do you guys have any good suggestions on how to achieve this?
I am currently using the "Play Mesh" node and then resetting the Animation Mode back to "Use Animation Blueprint".

[drowsy snow]

Try use Play Montage instead

[cold blade]

Hey so I am making a running animation blueprint and in the preview when the speed is beyond 0 it goes into the running animation but whenever I go in-game it don't transition to it and keeps playing idle

[mellow pebble]

Anybody know if there are any secrets, best practices to get analog sticks to feel really good in Unreal? I find that out of the box the sensitivity feels very "sticky" and kind of bad. Of course it depends on the gameplay tweaks, but does anyone have tips? There are no tutorials on axis config settings..

[charred bramble]

Thanks for your reply! 🙏
I tried playing Montage but apparently when I am in Cinematic Mode it does not play. Do you know why?🤔

[plush yew]

what I ended up doing was in my data table item list, I set the row name to the ID and then made an array of intagers which are the ids and everything just pulls the row from the data table it seems to work well so

[cold blade]

Somehow all my interfaces are read only

How can I fix

[drowsy snow]

You don't.
It's up to the actor using the interface on what to do in the event of interface call.

[drowsy snow]

You could've done it in more object oriented manner, but oh well.

[plush yew]

I had already started doing it with an array of ids and I'm working on a time frame. for my college FMP so I just did the faster way that worked

[gleaming lotus]

Looks like we got font families working! Since you asked, heres what we use for Korean which works.

Thanks for your help

Also - you cant get Korean working because korean language doesn't package - its a big issue with UE4 that I think is addressed in UE5, I haven't checked but I assume it would

We bypass it by using a different language setting for korean

We use this language as Korean instead 😄

[hollow crescent]

No idea.

[harsh fox]

anyone ever import some premade asset - that isnt optimized so well/not ue store - which creates a lot of material elements for it... like, is there a way to have all these material elements merged together so its better optimized?

Is there a better pipeline way to static merge all these elements? like something i can do when im importing in unreal engine or something i can run the file through before i try and import to reduce these elements into just one? cant really find what im looking for. fastest pipeline method you know of would be preferred.

[astral rapids]

does precomputed visibility work with hism instancing?

[humble peak]

I’m making a game and I want to add a pinball mini game, and before I try to execute it, would anyone happen to know if that would be possible?
It’s a first person game so I’d like to know if making a pinball game fit in the machine would be too small for the physics to work

[topaz orchid]

The Reference Viewer says the GM refs the Pawn and Pawn refs the GM, but searching the GM for the pawn's name found no results. Any ideas what's going on?
Btw. trying to resolve this circular dependency to fix a packaging error

[fierce tulip]

that image clearly does show a circular dependency

[kindred barn]

Is the Pawn blueprint maybe set as the default pawn class in the GameMode?

[spice ruin]

It does!

[topaz orchid]

That was it! 😁

[native creek]

Is there a way to add a brush in an actor blueprint?

[spice ruin]

Shape Component?

[native creek]

Yes

I'm trying to create a sims-like a game where I create walls at run-time... sort of

[harsh fox]

still looking for an answer to this.. cant find anyway when i import an object to merge all the material elements so it doesnt lag out

[native creek]

@plush yew but it's possible to create variables as of type brush

So presumably there is some functionality that I can access

Well to be honest the issue I'm having is with creating walls with a dynamic scalability and no issue with my UV tiling if you see what I mean

I hope I explained myself well

Thank you though for the help

[fallow hornet]

can you bulk edit static meshes and generate lods?

[native creek]

Ok thank you so much

Question: Do interstitial ads work in ue4, because I've been trying to get them to work and they won't pop up (I'm using 4.26 btw).

[plush yew]

why implementation of physX different

[mortal swan]

noob question but Ive downloaded and enabled this plugin, where do I find it now?

[cinder cargo]

can't import uasset files for some reason. i tried pasting the files in plugins. in content its not working. does anybody here know why? i have been trying for like 1 and half hour now

[lapis ore]

Is it possible to have a Material Instance Dynamic that uses baked lighting?

[mortal swan]

HAHAHAH ive never seen this before

[cinder cargo]

do u know the answser tho

does anyone know if this works?

[mortal swan]

sorry walt, im a complete newb

[cinder cargo]

https://tenor.com/view/heisenberg-goddamn-right-damn-you-damn-right-yes-gif-11550134

[fierce tulip]

you cant import uassets, you can only migrate them/move them trough explorer

migration being the best option.

[cinder cargo]

is there a tutorial?

[fierce tulip]

since its the most basic of things, I dunno.
depends on the file in question, and the file structure. if you have it in another project, or if its from the ue marketplace. etc.

[astral rapids]

i think u can paste the content folder containing the uassets on top of the current projects content folder then right click in editor -> fix redirectors

[fierce tulip]

basically, yes

[cinder cargo]

ill try in a sec

i dont see that

[mortal swan]

nvm found tutorial here https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/ninja-character-dynamic-gravity-for-characters-objects/151744

[thin tendon]

So I tried out ue5 for a bit then went back to ue4 to continue my project. Was ue4 always this sluggish and I am just noticing now?

[errant condor]

Hi guys i have a question regarding the rendering mode of Unreal. Why does the mesh disappear when it is set in Lit mode and when i switch to unlit it just showed up?

[drowsy snow]

Seem to be more of the material to me.

[errant condor]

when i zoom in very close i can see the mesh though

[drowsy snow]

Okay, what's the brightness/intensity value of your directional light?

Had a suspicions it's in a high value because of SunSky

[drowsy snow]

That's an okay value so it's not that

[errant condor]

when i zoom in the mesh would gradually brighten up

i had never seen something like this in unity...

[shut rapids]

do you have a post process volume in the level? with enabled exposure settings?

[drowsy snow]

Unity doesn't have auto exposure? 🤔

[errant condor]

i'm using the default scene for Game

[shut rapids]

ok so no post process ... hmm.. was my best guess to be honest

[drowsy snow]

I don't know Houdini, but its material might be sus

[shut rapids]

yeah since the light is not edited that much.. i would also suggest to take a look into that road material

[errant condor]

Ok i will have a look. Thanks guys

[abstract musk]

Hi! Let me know if this is the wrong channel for this question.
Currently building a project for Quest 2. I can play it just fine when it's connected via Oculus Link, using VR preview. However, when I hit the launch button to build/install/launch on the headset, I get this error:

"Can't save C:/Users/.../project/Saved/EditorCooked/Android_ASTC/project/Content/Maps/MediaPlayer.uasset: Graph is linked to object(s) in external map.
External Object(s):
ExObj"

Where ExObj is an actor from a plugin that I dragged into the scene. ExObj uses MediaPlayer.uasset to play media.
I don't know where to start with this problem. There were a few things online, but I wasn't able to make sense of them. I have a feeling it's some problem with the plugin that ExObj is from. Has anyone seen a problem like this before that might be able to point me in the right direction?

[karmic dagger]

it didnt worked i where not able to switch to 4.27 source 😔

[real heath]

yeah, sideways and backwards steps are tricky

[thin tendon]

I changed my default RHI to vulkan and now my editor runs at 60fps no matter what. Even when I try to uncap it or change it using console command commands.

just wondering what can happen if I publish a game with pirated marketplace assets 🤔

[karmic dagger]

i get an AutomationTool error when building on ue4.27 chaos, how i fix that?

[thin tendon]

okay to update my issue. Once packaged its fine. Its just the editor that gets stuck on 60 fps if using vulkan

[drowsy snow]

Try t.MaxFPS 120
Also make sure Vsync is not in the way

[thin tendon]

I already tried that mate

After a lot of googling. I found a thing saying it was a known issue back in 4.25. I guess they never fixed it

[drowsy snow]

It will catch up to you soon.

Also I'll leave it to <@&213101288538374145> judgement for that one

[grave aspen]

would HIGHLY recommend against that, you'd be stealing directly from your peers directly in this community, hostility will ensue, and the legal concequences on top of that will have ramifications. Also, refrain from the discussion of facilitating and enabling piracy in general, read the #rules

I don't see it in editor preferences

Ah

Sadly don't see camera speed

yes sir… just wanted to know about the consequences of doing it. I hope im not breaking any rules related to piracy on this server and also how can I know if someone has pirated my asset and is using it illegaly in his game?

My Emissive material got flick badly if i go far 😦 I tried find on Google and Youtube but notthing help 😦

I Found it by change Default Anti-Aliasing to FXAA.

[fresh pulsar]

Hey so I still haven't gotten those collision problems sorted out

Pls help lol

[real heath]

That's pretty standard aliasing. Bright high contrast geometry will do that. You see it in particular on emissive and shiny materials. Temporal AA does a decent job of smoothing out the scene with subpixel jitter. You could try increasing your ScreenPercentage to 200, but that's INCREDIBLY expensive, and will only go so far towards solving it. Other solutions can be reducing the emissive material strength based on distance, or LOD'ing out that detail, or, particularly for specular materials there was a neat trick which made the material more rough by checking the curvature of the geometry.

Looking closer, Is that a reflection where it's worst? Planar or Screenspace? If it's planar you could increase the planar reflection resolution. If it's screenspace you could increase the screenspace reflection quality in your post process. But TemporalAA is made for stuff like this

It's also possible Z-Fighting could be a cause, but my guess is it's just aliasing

[lost fractal]

@drowsy snow Hey there pal!! :3 I was wondering, do you happen to know how to prevent certain vertices from merging/disappearing when exporting .FBX into UE4? Cause I've been noticing this happen with vertices that are very closely confined together (a handful are in this state due to being used for face morph purposes where they get expanded)

Or if anyone else knows then yeah I'd appreciate any help, thank you. I'm using Blender

to give an idea of what I mean, btw... these are the ones messing up (screenshot from Blender)

https://gyazo.com/01400fd8568c2862f0b3c476be2d226a

[drowsy snow]

WHY IS THIS TEACHING A BIND FUNCTION

Good lord 🤦‍♂️ you don't need to update the health bar every frame smh

[lost fractal]

lolz D:

[drowsy snow]

Is unit scale good?

[lost fractal]

if you mean when I import into UE4 then yeah scale is all proper

[drowsy snow]

Unit scale 0.01?

[lost fractal]

In Blender, the root's scale is set to 0.1

and then when I export it, I have it so its multiplied by 0.10 for it to be proper scale within UE4

https://gyazo.com/354c211c916f04ab904b67cc6f27767e

https://gyazo.com/e8078d42a33f86d59874128e276bceb0

everything else for the mesh and armature works perfectly fine in UE4, other than those sets of vertices I screencapped there. I am only guessing that it relates to how "thin" and cramped together they are, at their default position.

[drowsy snow]

I mean this. Unit scale set to 0.01, and compensate everything else in the scene to supposed scale

[lost fractal]

oh interesting... I actually had no idea that setting even existed there

let me double check that then

yeah okay mine was blank pretty much

https://gyazo.com/5f36848d443eb18e7a518a55e239a75b

[drowsy snow]

set the System to Metric and the scale to 0.01

[lost fractal]

should I change my "Root"'s transform settings at all? or leave it as is? (currently is 0.1)

[drowsy snow]

Then again, compensate everything else in the scene to its supposed scale, because the first time around everything is tiny relative to the new unit scale

[lost fractal]

hmm I see

so should I be scaling it up or down then, from 0.1? D:

[drowsy snow]

I'll talk about it more in DM, don't want to get too exclusively Blender convo here

[lost fractal]

fair enough :3

[lost fractal]

I actually followed this tutorial too btw, funny enough, but I only followed the widget portion of the video personally. but for the Blueprint side of things, I did it my own way based on stuff I already had setup

so its an okay vid imo, but definitely try to learn from multiple sources if you can. since not one method is ever the "correct" way

[drowsy snow]

I'm disliking that tutorial, for the fact that it uses bind event.

[lost fractal]

and often you just need to figure it out for yourself through trial and error, and experimenting

yeah, I also didnt do that part myself

[drowsy snow]

Ideally you want to update the widget only when you heal or take damage, and if you use built in damage interface, you can just use Event Any Damage and update the widget.

[lost fractal]

yup, pretty much

for my stuff in particular, I also have it so characters all have randomly generated names when they spawn and it appears above the healthbar when looking at them with the crosshair, heh

lots of neat stuff you can do with widgets, but yeah just gotta make sure its only updated/shown when it needs to

[thick knoll]

What's the best way to find my Project specific DerivedDataCache?

[spice ruin]

Look in your project folder?

[thick knoll]

It has a datacache but it's empty and yet all shaders are still compiled

So they are being placed somewhere, I have done a full search of all drives for DerivedDataCache and not found it

So I need a way of direct link via engine or a way of forcing shader computation

[drowsy snow]

That's just as effective as half-assedly duct taping a hole, or lowering the sales.
Unreal Marketplace allows users to edit the assets they bought to suit their project needs. Which is why any assets under Creative Commons licence except CC0 (which is public domain) is not allowed

[thick knoll]

I noticed in UE5 you can search in project for derive data; this isn't available in 4.27; is there another way?

[feral stream]

Hey guys, I would like to use Unreal Engine (4 / 5) to "design" a gamemap (with the great foliage tool and texture painting).

The game map should be in isometric view.

My process would be as follows:

1. create a 3D model of the map and assets in blender.
2. import into UE 4/5
3. refine the map with the foliage tool etc.
4. create the whole thing with isometric camera view as a high resolution screenshot

Now my question:

Is it possible to set the viewport as isometric view? I already found a plugin on the marketplace that lets you press "play" to get into the isometric camera view, but it would be better for me if you can directly set the viewport as isometric.

I want to put damage on a wall when it is fired at.

[unique kraken]

can someone tell me what exactly this means

does that mean i have roughly 600k triangles in my scene?

[spice ruin]

No. That means that's how many were drawn.

[unique kraken]

hmmm

whats the difference?

you mean currently on screen?

[spice ruin]

Not all triangles are always drawn?

[unique kraken]

yes but i want to understand what that value tells me

does it tell me "this many triangles are on screen"?

[spice ruin]

I guess?

Depends what you mean by "on screen"

Do you mean "actaully drawn on the screen" or "are in the screen's visible frustum" ?

[unique kraken]

well im asking what it tells me

[spice ruin]

The former.

[unique kraken]

that seems absurd

my char has 200k tris beside that i just have a bunch of cubes flying around

how do i get to 600k

[spice ruin]

Just because a cube is a cube doesn't mean it doesn't have a million subdivisions.

[unique kraken]

those are 8 vertex cubes ~.~

its the character but i dont get why

does translucency do something in regards to that draw ammount?

hmm

could i disable that is the question

did, change nothing

No. Console development is under NDA and shouldn't be discussed publicly.

I'm sure you agreed and signed the NDA the moment you get the devkit.

@unique kraken is your material set to two-sided?

[unique kraken]

One is but I tested it and it made Literally no difference

[oak patio]

oh good 😅

[solid mason]

@unique kraken Could be that your objects are flying offscreen and then back on and the triangles are being counted each time the draw call is made (seems likely since you have 400+ primitive draw calls, do you have that many cubes?)

[solid mason]

This is exactly the scenario.. I just ran a little demo myself
