RPG Inventory Starter Kit - Out now!

Rekmar

Hey everyone,

Some guys that I help with their game every now and then asked me for an inventory screen, and I've decided to make a Starter Kit off it instead, as I know this kind of Inventory feature is a recurrent question and would be a nice addition for the community.
And it's now finished and ready for download!

Here's how it looks:

Features:

• A custom archetypable Inventory class where you can set its mesh, item/armor type, stats, etc
• A custom archetypable Weapon class where you can set its mesh, weapon type, stats, etc
• A custom ItemPickup class, used for both placing items/weapons in the world and dropping them off dying enemies. This class is quite simple and points to the Inventory/Weapon archetype
• An InventoryManager class that handles the inventory spaces (that limits the amount of items you can pick up) as well as the equipped items
• A scaleform inventory screen (the flair of it all!), with draggable Char and Backpack windows
• Char window has a Weapon slot as well as 6 armor slots
• Equipping/unequipping at the Char weapon slot actually changes the character’s weapon
• Armor and Weapons work per-slot (like the Scaleform Inventory demo), so a weapon can only go in the Weapon slot, or in the backpack spaces. Same for every Armor slot type
• Unique Item icons, defined per-item in the editor
• Objects are droppable back to the world
• Custom ‘Gold’ item that when picked up adds up to the character’s Gold amount
• Armor attachment system
• Looting other Characters
• Looting other Characters’ gold
• Looting containers
• Regular weapon switching is disabled
• Placeable Pawns (NPCs) can be assigned their inventory items individually in the editor

It extends the UT* classes because I wanted an easy template to have a character and a camera. however making it extend the base classes should'nt be too hard

there's just one drawback: this is not the inventory system I use in my game, so once I finish it there will not be any future updates/additions, except for any important bug fixing.
