Re: Contuinous Tower
arrrr... sorry thought I posted under udk section :P. Well I was planning to use udk because I know how to use it as well as basic kismet. I don't have any programming experience so I hope there is a way with kismet. Yh Archimedes' screw is the desired effect I am going for but with a tower, I remember playing a genesis… -

Sande: I don't read Finnish ;) Blankslatejoe: Thanks for the help I was considering the steaming at first as Visceral mentioned but as you mentioned there is limitations to how far I can go with streaming.

You'll find that randomizing almost anything in Unreal, geometry-wise, is tricky, mostly due to lighting efficiency and lightbakes. I think that'll be less an issue in UE4, due to the shift to a fully deferred renderer. Now, if you kept geometry and number of meshes simple and the materials/lights/postFX simple then you… -

Re: Contuinous Tower
Assuming Y up coordinates, your players Xpos would be stationary but the input would drive the rotation of the tower model and your Ypos would be constrained to a base constant += your jump - gravity over time. You could also script modular meshes to swap out giving the variety. -
Re: Contuinous Tower
So you want the platforms to spawn in during the rise? I think this has simmilar issue to making a train level in UDK where you would ride the train around a track....not sure what it was called though. Here is a video that might help....not sure [ame=" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROkHmMEWHU8"]Streaming Levels in the…
