Sci-Fi game devlog | Unreal Engine 5 📌
I created a draft battery and added a little logic to charge the batteries, the more batteries or the less light, the slower it charges from the solar panel. I really enjoyed the process of creating widgets, I hated doing UI in Unity 🧦
I make solar panels to charge energy batteries from starlight. One of the main mechanics in the Sci-Fi game is the use of batteries, of which there will be a lot. Find or craft and charge... for tools, transport, etc
It's not quite a cable, it's a tentacles, but the concept of creation is very similar. Particles in Niagara that keep a certain distance between themselves. Maybe someday I'll come up with something to do with it 🐙
I know I post too many cable videos, but this is the last one, or the penultimate one. Let me remind you that I am still learning Unreal Engine and at a very early stage, so I am interested in trying everything that comes to mind
Cylinder: radius 1, length 500. Skeletal Mesh with 50 bones and Capsules colliders. The result is a 5-meter cable. And this is done without the use of third-party editors, only Unreal Engine 5
Continuing the rope experiment in Unreal Engine 5 ... tried gluing two ropes together with Physics Constraint Components. Doesn't look perfect, but these problems can be solved. I think it is possible to make the behavior of a rope of any size
Does anyone know how to make jumping spider enemies in Unreal Engine? We have cobbled something together but it doesn't work as well as we'd like and wondering if anyone knows of a tutorial or has any advice. Thanks in advance!
F**ks sake they changed something pretty fundamental between UE 5.4 Preview and UE 5.4 Final - the ability to have multiple objects in an asset file, which SUDS relies on - the dialogue and string table are in the same asset; now the string table is gone.
I was worried they might do this because they started hiding them in 5.3 (not a problem) so I tested 5.4 Preview but everything was fine. Now it's completely broken in 5.4 Final, every single dialogue line is <MISSING STRING TABLE ENTRY> 😠
Another video showing the signal fayer, throwing mechanics and the switching from protagonist to drone... now I started doing the mechanics of interacting with the power cables like in Half Life 2
Good evening... Tried to make a storm, but my video card said me - "do it without me"... Therefore, I did not continue any further, and I will show you this
Made a second object for throws. This flare is not for lighting, because the protagonist has a flashlight... this item is a tool to distract the creatures that live on this planet
Ok, I linked the mechanics of item throwing for fire extinguishing. I realized that it is not so easy to catch the moment when you need to start the gas. The object must lie on the surface. So for now I did very stupidly, catch the first collision hit once, wait 1 second, reset the linear velocity, wait 1 second again, turn off physics, spawn Niagara and Destroy Actor
Day 48, Sci-Fi Adventure. I enjoy the Unreal Engine every day. Now in the process of creating various objects of the protagonist that he can throw. This is a distracting flare
Found one of my first scripts for in the early days of familiarization with Blueprint and Unreal Engine 5 - the script prints the text in the texture that the light source displays. I was thinking of making a projector out of it
Thanks to everyone who helped make the showcase / sale period a success, I really appreciate it. And new customers seem very happy so that's nice. ☺ #ue5#unrealengine
Just playing with Niagara and Chaos... perhaps it will be an energy wave from an impulse created by either a hero's defense weapon or some stationary equipment
I want to make an sonic instrument or ultrasound in the game like sonic screwdriver from Doctor Who
I'm still a beginner, so the implementation will be simple for now, I made Niagara, which will be projected onto the surface of the object, and then activate the force for chaos
There will be no firearms in the game and the hero will not be able to kill anyone, but there will be many different Sci-Fi devices for protection, for example create a short circuit for temporary stun
A couple of days ago I showed the implementation of a scanner based on Niagara and static mesh, I decided to make another variant that requires less resources and can be configured - to transfer random positions from a Spline
Step by step I study and experiment with Unreal Engine 5 and Niagara. I worked with Unity for 6 years, but I did not use the Particle System very skillfully. And I can't remember if I could so quickly reproduce there what I can in Unreal. For example, controlling particles by spline
