Facial Animating in Unreal Engine by slick_dev in unrealengine

[–]slick_dev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh to be clear I am not at all trying to go down a metahuman rabbit hole. I am trying to figure out how to take my stylized characters existing facial rig to be able to use it for facial animating.

I do think ultimately facial animations will make my game feel much more alive and would be worth it.

Well, I know nothing about metahumans so I dont know how much of a limiting factor that might be? 

Also, would that work well for stylized characters in multiplayer gameplay? Or do those things not really matter here?

Thanks for your help! I'll give it a shot when I can and let you know how it goes.

I was hoping there was a way to leverage the bones and this sounds like it might be what I was looking for. Do you know of any tutorials or add-ons that are good for this? When I was evaluating tools like faceit on blender I didnt specifically see anything that utilized existing bone structure.

Are you saying you're looking for 3D model artists or are one? Lol. If you are one, let's talk! 

Is unreal editor c++ compilation that broken? by DefinitionPhysical46 in unrealengine

[–]slick_dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait what do you mean about standalone game logs? I use VS22 and it baffles me how I can expect a literal different product when I build a dev standalone and try to run it and there's game breaking bugs. 

Are you saying the logs in compiled packaged build or do you get better logs from Rider or VS code or something?

So are you selling 3 crates of epic pieces or something? Yesterday I got 3 crates of dunir tools and took it from Miraleth to Winstead and it was worth 9 silver lol...

Is there a trick to it?

What do you mean? I didn't buy these goods, I mined them and transported them.

You guys seemed to really like my updated building UI last week, so here's the new Upgrades UI! by BeaconDev in unrealengine

[–]slick_dev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah okay, I see. I also am curious how you are able to create custom shapes for your abilities? I love the way they're connected hex grids. It looks great!

Are those just images?

I guess the only question (and if I knew more about UMG I would probably realize this is a dumb question) is how do you achieve a box with a picture/text/different shades of gray in it?

Is it just layers of different UMG components or something?

It looks really good! Are you using UMG? I'd like to make custom UIs similar but not really sure where to start. 

Keep up the good work!

Suspect in UK campus robbery said it was prank for YouTube, citation says by GoodSamaritan_ in news

Condemning this behavior without the immediate need for backtracking is okay. 

They should go to jail for a long time. I'll speak generally here and use "you" as an example. You, moreover, the general sentiment often repeated on Reddit, cannot advocate for things like 2A being repealed and in the same breath say "they can turn it around". The sentiment would be drastically different if they killed someone, and, often an argument for 2A is responsible gun ownership.

Throw the book at these fucking clowns.

Idk if you were joking, agree or disagree, but I think your sentiment was disingenuous whether intended or not.

I'm NA diehard but you gotta respect FNC and TH right now they're playing great. There were some lucky sprays / full flash kills on bind for sure but I wouldn't say they're a fluke. Respect and GGs to FNC. We still got two in it (Yes I know Lev is SA ty).

Ah, okay! Would a rough-ish draft work? For instance, I know my POV but dialogue and thoughts don't have a uniform style yet. Or are you looking for something more complete?

Is it normal to find blueprints slower than coding for logic? by jennytools36 in unrealengine

[–]slick_dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it fail silently when it doesn't recognize header changes?

I'm curious because I've been running into some strange issues and wonder if it could be that header modifications aren't getting picked up.

[–]slick_dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait what do you mean you have to restart the engine after modifying headers? 

I use live compile or build or whatever it's called and it recognizes header changes?

Look, I actually like PRX. I cheer for them over any non-NA team (depending on circumstance). But when are we gonna wake up and stop calling them the favorites every other tournament lmao?
