UDK player height no longer 96units or...?

adam

Hey there,

I was ensuring my Max was setup for UDK properly and did some test pieces. One of which was a 96x32x32 unit box, placed in the UDK default scene. Once it was in I did the 'Play From Here' option and noticed I could see the top of the block. Everywhere I read said 96 units is the player height.

I did a 256x256 block to make sure my units were OK, and next to Epic's 256x256 block is seems fine. Both it and the original 96x32x32 block I made snap along at 32units just fine as well.

So - has the UDK player height changed?

Sorry, that large block is 256u
not 128.. d'oh

It depends on what you have set as the Game Type in the map's World Properties. If I remember correctly, by default now, it's on UDK Game, and the player height is taller than 96 units (forget what it is off the top of my head.) If you set the Game Type to be UTGame, it should go back to 96 units.

My max is setup as follows:

Generic Units

1 unit = 1 centimeter

If I keep Generic Units and do 1 unit = 1 Inch I get the same size block in UDK and the same height issue.

Harbinger - that fixed it! I wonder what the default height is...

adam

110unit tall seems to be the magic number there!
