Thanks @WadeWT , that gives me a lot to go off of. I don't know nothing about writing shaders beyond basic work with the UE4 material node editing (which I guess is just visual shader scripting), but maybe with a few weeks of research and experimentation I can come up with something decent. Maybe that is totally…
Sorry about that btw. It was my fault for assuming you (or anyone else for that matter) would know what to do with the code. The deeper I get into coding myself I forget what's "common knowledge" and what's not. I guess it goes without saying even though it's probably obvious at this point, but I'll mention it anyway just…
I'm kind of close to the end I think, I'm fixing some bugs and running renders through MRQ now so I should really catch up on the posts. Clothing creation was really problematic and I think one of the things I spent the most time on. There's a lot I could talk about but I guess I will focus on 2 things I realized: 1.…
One of the coders back at 38 helped us come up with this exact same series of nodes. He called it 'sphere mapping' though. Dunno if that's some official technie-graphics-programmer term or not. Pretty cool stuff though!
Just getting into 3d isbe quite challenging. And getting the prop modelling gig aint the easiest. Since most like it so much so they tend stick to that once they get it. To myself, its a dream gig. Just make models and get payd for it. Nowadays thats something i do for fun, then sell the modells on turbosquid for…
This isn't going to be just a material solution. Its a combination of material and the hit detection portion of the game. Using UDK as a base look in the "takeDamage" function of the actor class. Included in that is a vector for hit location. So for your player class using this material you're creating you can have a hook…
Hey everyone! I just got into scripting a couple of days ago and I want to start tracking my progress and potentially get some pointers and some feedback from more advanced scripters. I'm still very new and my stuff is super simple, so don't get your hopes up for anything awesome. Here's the first script that I made. I got…
If I can get it to work as intended I most certainly will... otherwise I shall pretend I never tried in the first place :D (Kidding) Right n ow I'm just starting with the UScript; there's a long way to go. I have SVO-constructor C++, and porting it to Unreal is not as easy as it might appear, since the class structure,…
Maya's Hotkey Editor is pretty robust, you should be able to do everything in there (Window > Settings/Preferences > Hotkey Editor). If by "toggle selection" you mean to switch between object and component mode, I think the code is SelectToggleMode That will switch between object mode and the last active component mode.…
