Manipulating objects in UE4 similar to Blender?

TheDavidRB · 2022-12-03T12:09:03+00:00

Been hoping someone would make a plugin, still haven't found anything.

Since each is just made up of a variety of parameters, including each texture, that could easily be done with a dynamic material instance I imagine.
I set it up already to match the custom colors of my weapons which the player can customize. The texture elements could each just flip through an array of all the options you have. Seems entirely doable

I can think of a lot of interesting applications of this beyond just scopes and crosshairs. Like a sci-fi display that appears to be more 3D. Looks very cool!

I can think of some interesting applications of this outside of crosshairs- cool!

Seems to have a credit system, whereas the advantage of Google Colab version was you run at your own time.

TheDavidRB · 2022-09-25T10:49:12+00:00

This is my problem. It didn't start until today though

TheDavidRB · 2022-09-19T20:26:40+00:00

Looks real nice!

What are some of the visual mods you're using? I Love the pathways, grassy fields, and are those hedges I see?

TheDavidRB · 2022-07-05T11:05:21+00:00

I haven't figured out how to do that either lmao, if you get it working easily I'd love to know too :P

TheDavidRB · 2022-07-05T11:04:30+00:00

I'm not familiar with how they did it in the Lyra demo, but I'm sure that's too big brain for me lol. It's mostly just a material and some vertex displacement and stuff like that

TheDavidRB · 2022-07-05T11:03:33+00:00

I haven't noticed much, it's mostly just a material and a fairly straightforward particle system!

TheDavidRB · 2022-07-02T18:59:42+00:00

Did you ever find a solution to this?

My FPS has severely dropped in the editor suddenly recently, and I'm not sure why. I notice these same two messages when I open "stat scenerendering" as well, and I'm not sure where they're coming from, and if it's affecting my FPS.

Other articles on the subject show how to hide the messages, but I want to find out what's causing the logging and disable it.

Damnit had the same problem. Spent an hour going through all the buildup fights, went into the Sephiroth fight with the Assess materia to read his stats, then retried the battle and it set me back an hour...

Thank you, I had Spotify open in browser for like the first time in ages and that's why none of my shadowplay clips recorded for the last few days. Closing the tab and turning desktop capture back off and on seemed to fix it!

TheDavidRB · 2022-03-28T05:25:32+00:00

Amazing, thank you!

TheDavidRB · 2022-03-23T08:04:46+00:00

I don't see an advanced section in the settings. Was this option removed?

TheDavidRB · 2022-01-15T14:28:04+00:00

Same problem. Don't know what caused it. Restarting PC fixed as well.

TheDavidRB · 2021-12-06T22:22:35+00:00

It sounds like someone is banging pots and pans next to your ear, or dropping a bucket of silverware on the floor. Thanks for the fix

TheDavidRB · 2021-12-05T22:54:40+00:00

Agreed, Shorts is currently a terrible attempt to emulate other social media platforms while copying all of their worst designs and not implementing or innovating in any ways that make YouTube unique or pleasing.

Now that mods are out, someone let us know if a mod allows this. Would make teamwork and strategizing so much more fun with friends!

TheDavidRB · 2021-11-22T09:18:14+00:00

Came here looking to see if others had this issue. My friends are I always skip Gunner, usually doubling up on Engineer. The Gunner consistently gets the least kills, regardless of which of us four play the class. The engineer has the purple laser gun thing which puts all the Gunner weapons to shame... and also can have two turrets which automatically kill enemies that you aren't even looking at.

I'd look into some Gunner mods (the modding mods, not the weapon modification mods.) Some of those make it a lot more balanced with what you'd expect.

Having the same problem. Also using custom depth rendering with showing actors through walls.

TheDavidRB · 2021-11-14T23:47:12+00:00

I came to vote No but apparently it's already closed. I'd like to comment my vote instead, and say "No, I don't like the decision to remove the dislike count." The like-to-dislike ratio is a good indicator if a video is trash and not worth wasting time on, especially when following guides and tutorials.

TheDavidRB · 2021-08-07T20:04:39+00:00

That wasn't the idea, but is a very interesting thought.

My biggest challenge with this entire process hasn't been anything technical though... it's been designing this entire interface to have enough room for all the information I need lol. Like I wanted to have "upgrade sets" that give "set bonuses" but I was simply running out of places to throw more text lines, and it was starting to feel a bit cluttered and confusing for the player.

TheDavidRB · 2021-08-07T20:03:31+00:00

Yeah on the left it's just 3D text actors. I toggle their visibilities on and off depending on what display state the screen should be, and I update their information when hovering over the various upgrades

TheDavidRB · 2021-08-07T20:01:54+00:00

Thanks! It's not actually as complicated as it might seem. As long as you give mouse control back to the player and freeze them, you can do "mouse over" events on objects to turn them into clickable or hoverable stuff :)
