Can anyone help me with unreal swarm problems? If I make a template level and try to build, or build lighting, the building hangs at 100%. I think swarm is the problem. I tried allowing it in the firewall settings, verifying the engine, and neither worked. I have a log that says "Channel already registered, suggesting another SwarmAgent or client is running."
grizzled swallow
@covert junco , what template are you having issues with...???
I would guess, that you might have overlooked something
grizzled swallow
@covert junco try this here, and if that dont work, please get back to me : https://answers.unrealengine.com/questions/189581/channel-already-registered-suggesting-another-swar.html
covert junco
@grizzled swallow Third person template. I did not have this issue before in 4.19. After downloading and updating to 4.21.2 suddenly both versions of the engine won't build lighting. When I click the build button, everything freezes until I end the swarm process in task manager, after which I get a "failed to connect to swarm" message.
Doing netstat -a doesn't show 8008 or 8009 being used
grizzled swallow
did you try the link, I posted above @covert junco
it could also be a engine install, that went wrong, it does happen sometimes
covert junco
The link just tells me to use the cmd to check the ports
and I did reinstall the engine, and verified it
grizzled swallow
without reboot?
covert junco
Let me try a reboot, brb
covert junco
Yes
grizzled swallow
normally it is suggested, that if you uninstall, that you reboot afterwards, and then reinstall
covert junco
How come the old version of the engine stopped working too?
grizzled swallow
maybe you dont have enough free space?
it can be many things, but lets try to take 1 thing at the time
covert junco
Nope, I have 2 terabytes free
Updated .net framework to latest version
I can't run swarm by itself though, am I supposed to be able to?

@grizzled swallow Now it's back to not working
covert junco
Swarm agent failed to connect
grizzled swallow
so you firewall is open for Swarm agent correct?
grizzled swallow
because the only other reason I can guess, would be, that some other program, is using the same port as swarm agent
covert junco
And now it worked...
How can I tell what is using the port?
When I turned the firewall back on, it worked again
I know the problem is "solved"
But I don't feel like it's really solved since this is likely to occur agian
grizzled swallow
I agree with you
that is it not solved
this here, can tell you what port is being used : https://www.computerweekly.com/tip/How-to-use-a-netstat-command-in-Windows-to-watch-open-ports
covert junco
8008 and 8009 aren't listed when I run netstat -an in command prompt
grizzled swallow
then it must be related to your firewall
but at this point, I am only guessing
But I'll try to see, what I can find
but right now, I am out of ideas, and only guessing... ๐ฆ

Why when i add grass to my hole map and it tells me to fix lighting when i do like 1 min later it freezes my pc but only when i add stuff to my map
grizzled swallow
@serene wasp
when you add new meshes, grass, threes, or what ever you put into the map, then you will to rebuild lightning
and the reason for your computer freezes , could be because of low CPU, or low Ram, that means it does take alot of Ram and CPU usage
serene wasp
None

How can I go about passing this information from a c++ code
Basically the little black box is my issue
I dont want the level it goes to be hard coded, cause it may change randomly
So in C++ I have generated a map, and used playerinfo to call it and make use of it to give my player values of what room he is in
now that I have what room he is in, and I have what door he is opening, I can use that info in a c++ class to call my gernated array map, and determine what level should load next , and produce the correct string
my issue is HOW do i create that class so that it is findable by blue prints
Basicaclly I want to make a new function that returns a string
in blueprints
that I can edit in C++
Any one know best way to do this?

you working on anything specific?
upper grail
I'm watching tutorials on how to us the program. Not yet started any projects
how about you
blissful sierra
fair enough
got start small and work up your knowlage
iv been using unreal 2 or 3 years
on and off
upper grail
๐ฎ
blissful sierra
well basically what i did was just learn to do one thing at a time
i already know what kinda game i wana make
upper grail
I will play your game ๐
blissful sierra
so i just started learing one thing at a time in order to make it
i started with an inventory system
upper grail
oh, thats a great process to learn from
blissful sierra
basicaly learning to pickup items and store them and use them and all that stuff
apperently inventories are one of the harder things to start off with
lol
so it took a while
but i eventually got it ๐
blissful sierra
next i went to things like adding simple animations to my guy, make em walk faster, run and all that stuff
upper grail
how long did this part take to make?
blissful sierra
well i mean i did it on and off right
so say i wont touch the thing for a month at a time
but i was messing with this stuff for about a year
before i started to get into the intresting stuff
so after that i started learning everything i could about, procedural generation
and thats where things get bananas
blissful sierra
animations arent my strong suit really
so i did kinda struggle with that part
and if i wana go back and change some animation stuff id probably have to rewatch a tut or two
but no biggie
should come back as i watch to tut
so basicaly what im saying is you gota have an idea in your head of what it is you want to do
upper grail
oh cool! is there any part you enjoy doing most?
blissful sierra
like what kind of game you would like to make
and then figure out all the little baby steps you need to get theere
upper grail
thats a good question to ask
upper grail
is level design same as environment design?
blissful sierra
yes
upper grail
really, is it a lot to learn
blissful sierra
depends on how you do it
and how passionate you are
i mean this stuff can be as easy or as complex as you want it to
so its really up to you
but if you want to see what a total newbi can do in 2 or 3 years and smokeing lots of weed....
upper grail
have you done this for a job before?
blissful sierra
not yet
upper grail
oh cool!
blissful sierra
but i would love too
upper grail
you sshould work for a studio for designing ๐
blissful sierra
thanks! ^^
so it jsut depends on how much effort you put into it
but its totally doable!

@deft lion That node takes a path to the file. You want the string to go to the clipboard at runtime?
deft lion
@ionic flint Yes ๐ is that possible ?
ionic flint
Possibly. It should be. I need to look how to interface with it. Might need to use a library or something in C++
deft lion
@ionic flint there are ways to do it in C++ but none in blueprint that I've seen
ionic flint
There's probably a BP_library that can do it.
if not, I could expose it if I knew how to do it in C++
@deft lion ok, I see how to do it. You just want to send a string to the windows clipboard?

it's all good man I was looking for a solution on bps if there's none I guess the artist can type it manually, thanks for the help though
ionic flint
All you have to do is put the function into a C++ BP library and then you'll have the node in BP
dense breach
you can create a BP node from the C++ functionality, not as hard as you think
https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/API/Runtime/Core/GenericPlatform/FGenericPlatformMisc/ClipboardCopy/index.html https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/API/Runtime/Core/GenericPlatform/FGenericPlatformMisc/ClipboardPaste/index.html
Note that you need to use FPlatfromMisc not FGenericPlatfromMisc, if you see FGenericPlatfrom* class in API reference remove "Generic" because those are Generic rollback implementation of functions all that get referenced to FPlatfrom*
I dont see any blueprint implementations of this, you will need to make your own nodes if you want to which is not that hard ```
Vid on how to create a node from existing C++ only functionality -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UVdL4gHTOw

I know it won't be that complicated but I don't want to deal with C++ just for that small thing

I'm using unreal for one year but blender I used when I made this character something like month
I think I will make new character. With more friendly shape...

You're plugging a float 3 in to alpha and it wants a float.

I have an actor that I'm trying to add a keyframe for in my sequencer, but any time I adjust the rotation of the actor, it vanishes. Sometimes it becomes visible again if I restart Unreal, sometimes it doesn't. Is there anything that I can do about that? It's making it very difficult to finish the sequencer.

@fierce sandal You could use a single channel or maybe the alpha instead.

Im getting a highly illuminated environment even if i have just one directional light with intensity 1 and one skylight. How can i reduce the illumination while still getting good, dark shadows?
narrow sparrow
@gentle coral
1- You might consider disabling the eye adaptation
2- Reduce the intensity of the skylight. Directional light doesn't affect the shadows, but skylight does a lot.
gentle coral
@narrow sparrow thank you, I'll try that
However I'm not familiar with the eye adaptation feature, would you mind letting me know where i can find it?
narrow sparrow
@gentle coral It should be under the "Show" button, Post-Process I assume.

Replicated Multicast Event doesn't get called on clients if called from BeginPlay event, works flawlessly if called from Input events. I use blueprints, plz. help!
buoyant wharf
@fresh radish any update on it?
orchid kelp
@fresh radish server can only call multi casts
fresh radish
But I want to call it from server 'cause it should be called only once at the start of the session.
So, what I try to achieve is to randomize some data on the server and the replicate it to every client. In my case it is random player models - server picks a random one for every player and since apparently skeletal mesh is not automatically replicated by engine I need to do it myself calling a multicast event from a server using a hasAuthority? check. I suppose my problem is that multicast gets called before clients are able to retrieve any RPC if I use BeginPlay. So, by what can I replace BeginPlay Event in blueprints to make multicast work? C++ supports more events than blueprints and there is some event like OnNetworkReady (made up the name, forgot the real one), is there anything similar for blueprints or don't I get anything?

Can do a sleep before the function as a quick solution but you should do a check for all players connected if you have a lobby before then cross check with that player count

@dusty tinsel this is cause you probably got it from another project,so you don't have the same inputs as the other project
so just make those inputs with the same name
dusty tinsel
ok
ionic flint
Rather than setting them all up one at a time, you could copy the DefaultInput.ini from the other project to the new one.

hello, how can I restore a project I have a version control system connected Github, I have shown what and when I downloaded, but there is no way to restore

I'd ask in source control. Depending on how you have it setup it's not always straight forward to restore things.

hi
any web gurus here have a clue why discord VC refuses to connect?
RTC connection, no route
https://test.webrtc.org/ this test fails spectacularly
I've tried just about every fix I could find online, and even contacted my ISP

any web gurus here have a clue why discord VC refuses to connect?
when i had this problem i uninstalled and reinstalled Discord
it helped me
feral granite
I tried a lot of things already
Rebooted all devices
Checked the firewall to make sure discord is allowed
uninstalled my VPN
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /renew
the next steps are get a new router/modem or have the lines checked
uninstall & reinstall of discord didn't seem to help
it affects web and ap versions
it's not just discord it's torrenting and streaming too
all udp/rtc type connections fail which feels like line noise
but my router has tons of errors
I'll take any suggestions though, maybe you know something I haven't tried.

Hello. I have a problem when exporting the grass from Megascans. That's happening only with the grass, other meshes exporting perfectly. But the grass always white. Can anyone help?
feral granite
Discord says 1) Restart your Modem+Router+Computer - You'd be surprised how often the "turn it off and turn it back on again" trick works
2) Check your Firewall/Anti Virus and make sure that Discord is whitelisted/temporarily disabled
3) Check your VPN (We only support VPNs that have UDP)
4) Check with your network admin - If you're on a work/school network, Discord could be blocked!
5) Change the server's voice region - If you're the admin, try a different voice region in Server Settings -> Server region
6) Disable QoS - Head over to User Settings -> Voice & Video and turn off "Enable Quality of Service High Packet Priority"
7) Head over to https://test.webrtc.org/ and see if any errors pop up.
the same info everywhere I look
Nobody says what to do when WebRTC fails every check
and my ISP says we pinged you and its fine, complain to Discord.

I couldn't find an easy setting for this, apparently it's difficult. Anyone know an easy trick to stopping a point light (any light source) from creating a bloom in the atmospheric fog? I want to use a fill light, but I don't want to see the invisible bloom in the air. Thanks so much!

By the way, Mr Statham, I loved you in Overcharged 5

To answer my own question, I think it's Volumetric Scattering on the light properties. Not sure that totally solves it, but it helps.

OR:
a = 0
b = 0
then a | b = 0
a = 1 and b = 0, b | a = 1
both a and b are 1 = 1
XOR:
if a = 1, and b = 1, a ^ b = 0
if a = 1, and b = 1, a^ b = 1
if a = 0 and b = 0, then a^b = 0
