By popular demand (like, really constantly being asked) here's a tutorial for sliding using the movement component. Increase speed as you slide down & decrease as you go up. Launch the character off of ramps. Blend animations between states. Contour slide to slope angle.
#indiedev #gamedev #ue5
Starting a new tutorial series around combat but not the combat itself. Things like spawning/respawning, aggro, music switching, triggering cutscenes and much more integrated and controlled by one centralized actor.

Happy Friday all. I bring you a new tutorial, this time in 1st person! A teleport to point with a takedown maneuver to ambush enemy actors. Includes holographic projection at end point, pose switching if targeting an enemy and can be used with indirect line of sight
#unrealengine #indiedev #gamedev
No, just the default add movement input function
Some slope/slide physics I've been tinkering with. #mathradical
#UE5 #gamedev #indiedev
Final draft done! Added a Fresnel material effect & static mesh to better indicate where the player will end up. Pose changes if end point will hit an enemy. Also prevents teleporting if end point can't fit the player mesh & can TP to places out of direct line of sight.
#UE5 #gamedev #indiedev
Why edit the footage for the next tutorial when I can just make the one after that? Giving the FPS players some love with a teleport to point ability with a takedown mechanic to auto strike if teleporting to an enemy actor.
#indiedev #gamedev #ue5
Could be a few issues. You may need to double check the relative offset going off of the spline and make sure that resets back to what it was. You can also try adjusting the trace to go further away from the spline so it'll have better detection when the grind reaches an end point.
Happy New Year and happy new #UE5 tutorial! Part 2 covers several ways of throwing actors using impulse, projectiles, or lerp to damage enemies and make them ragdoll when hit.
#indiedev #gamedev #UnrealEngine
This tutorial is about making a telekinetic/force grab in #UE5. It goes over grabbing actors from a distance, simulating physics with collision control and includes a free overlay for highlighting actors. The next 2 parts will handle throwing actors and characters.

I tested and reviewed the 5.7 combat variant and all its actors. I even fixed a few issues along the way! There's not too much different from 5.6, but it's still covered for those who haven't seen the variant. Turns out, it's a bit janky but otherwise a good start.

Just released a new short range teleport / blink tutorial. Allows tagging to move through objects & actors with only a few traces to check for available space. The project includes an after image Niagara effect (description links to The Epic Singh who shows how to make it).
#UE5 #GameDev #IndieDev
I made a very simple #ue5 tutorial this week. A beginner friendly interaction for handling different types of keys and using them to open different doors. The full project is simplified down to a few blueprints and annotated. It's also free for anyone who goes to my Patreon.
#gamedev #indiedev
YouTube sometimes does interesting things like fail to auto-dub a video and then stop allowing me to edit it. So if you haven't seen it, I've reuploaded my last tutorial remaking the Glintblade Phalanx from #EldenRing in #UE5. Tutorial includes sword mesh and Niagara effect.

Hey, you all going to release the Epstein Files or what?
Low energy. Dumb take. Keep the trash on Twitter.
I made a few tutorials on dashing, but they've all been in straight lines. Now here's one where you can dodge around an actor, keep facing the actor, rotate the camera with the movement and control how far you want to move around the target! Trigger warning: calculus.
#ue5 #gamedev #indiedev
I remember having issues early on learning #UE5 with level select tutorials not unloading stream levels or only working with world partition. I made a tutorial for a blueprint that can use both. It also includes a means for the player to unlock levels as they go. Also, widgets!
#gamedev #indiedev
Hopefully this will be the start of a new tutorial series. I went through remaking a few jump mechanics in #ue5 from Warframe, Mario64 and Jak & Dexter.
#gamedev #indiedev
Really like the Sly Cooper style of landing on railings
I'm thinking about putting together a new #ue5 tutorial series where I recreate a compilation of popular game mechanics from over the years in #unrealengine.
What are some of your favorite dash mechanics you've seen in 3rd person #videogames?

Really need to get working on thumbnail work, but hey, at least the tutorial series is done. Heavily inspired by Kingdom Hearts this covers almost everything you would need for a lock on system. This is the last part, targeting actors with multiple target points.
#gamedev #indiedev #UnrealEngine5
I don't think most people are going to focus on the bricks. You could also mix things up with materials and lighting if you wanted to.
This is a overview of a series I've been making on a comprehensive lock-on system. Parts 1-4 (of 6) are already released. It includes a soft & hard lock, target cycling, line of sight and focus targeting. Multi-target actors & enemy info the player HUD is next. Hope you all like it!

I made a tutorial going over prepping and implementing animations for motion warping, how to use motion warping, and applying it to mantling from a ledge grab. I provide an animation to use for the tutorial as well.

I see what you're saying. If you are swapping or dropping a weapon, you need to have the weapon handle the charge. My guess is that they do that but just have the charge set to zero when you pick it up or swap away from it.
Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean about preserving. Floats are not accurate due the limitations with binary. 1.0 as a float is actually 1.000000119 (a bit longer but yeah). So when you have high numbers around 7 digits it's not going to equal the integer equivalent.
I made a tutorial for grapple points with inspiration from Jedi: Survivor and Clair Obscur. A few interesting little things are in it as well such as a proximity progress bar as you get closer to a widget and a Niagara thether with a dynamically set beginning and end point.

Rounding out every way to run on a wall, here's my tutorial for a horizontal wall run. It uses the capsule radius for measurement so it will work with custom characters. It includes a drop off time where the run arcs downwards after a certain point & wall jumping. Enjoy!
#indiedev #gamedev #ue5
I can't do that, exporting the file without the whole project will break the montage.
3 things to check
1) the animation needs to have a notify added to the montage
2) the switch on notify begin matches the notify exactly
3) place a print to test & if it works try disabling the player's collision
