(39) Rama's Extra Blueprint Nodes for You as a Plugin, No C++ Required!

[Ozzie]

Welcome ot the forums Ozzie!

"Hey quick question, I'm installing the plugin step by step but it just doesn't work in the editor"

Can you explain more? What's not working? BP nodes not showing up or the vertex snap editor not working?

Please make sure you are using 4.8 and download from my Media Fire link due to issues with wiki download system for some people / browser cache stuff

You can ensure you have the latest version by using this download link!

Please note clicking this link will not start a download instantly, it will just take you to the Media Fire file.

Have fun today!

Hey,

I'm using the file from your link, also working on 4.8.0 version.
BP nodes are working fine, but vertex snap editor just doesn't show up, I'm selecting static meshes but no Victory Editor HotKeys button shows up, no vertices are being highlighted.
I tried toggling it on and off, etc. nothing helps. I also deleted engine cache just to be sure.

Hi there!

To enable my Vertex Snap Editor you need to make a change to your DefaultEngine.ini!

Array ~ Valid Index & Get Actor Time Alive & Get Actor Creation Time

TimeAlive and CreationTime



The above nodes let you know when a particular Actor was created (World Seconds) and for how many seconds an actor has been alive!

~~~

Valid Index (Array)



This node let's you always know in advance if a particular index is valid for your chosen array!

This node simplifies the process of protecting against "array out of bounds" errors with arrays!

Many thanks to Kris for contributing these nodes!



Rama

[Netrve]

Thank you Rama and Kris for the new nodes.
This entire BP suite makes working more convenient with every update!
Thank you again Rama for working on this!

@Rama - I'm getting these errors when I try and compile the 4.8 plugin:

As far as I can tell the methods *do* exist. I've tried cleaning, rebuilding etc. This is with the launcher engine rather than a Github one.

Hi there!

Well the tip off is right here:

C:\Users\r\Documents\Unreal Projects\OceanProject 4.8\Plugins\VictoryPlugin\Source\VictoryEdEngine\Private\VictoryEdAlignMode.cpp(484): error C2039: 'LineTraceSingleByChannel' : is not a member of 'UWorld'
1>          C:\Program Files\Epic Games\4.7\Engine\Source\Runtime\Engine\Classes\Engine/World.h(503) : see declaration of 'UWorld'
1>C:\Users\r\Documents\Unreal Projects\OceanProject 4.8\Plugins\VictoryPlugin\Source\VictoryEdEngine\Private\VictoryEdAlignMode.cpp(853): error C2039: 'LineTraceSingleByChannel' : is not a member of 'UWorld'

LineTraceSingleByChannel is absolutely a function in UWorld in 4.8!

You must not be compiling with 4.8 somehow?

There's no way the compiler should miss finding LineTraceSingleByChannel !

GetMainAudioDevice is also new in 4.8

I'd recommend doing this:

1. delete intermmediate folder for the plugin and your main project
2. delete sln,suo,sdf for main project
3. right click on .uproject, and select switch engine version to 4.8
4. recompile both main project and plugin

I've been compiling just fine in 4.8 and you simply should not be getting told by compiler that functions are missing that are new in 4.8

~~~

You could also try compiling for Development Editor 64 just for more test data.

~~~

Do keep me updated on your progress with this issue!

~~~

Thank you Rama and Kris for the new nodes.
This entire BP suite makes working more convenient with every update!
Thank you again Rama for working on this!

Woohoo!

Glad you are enjoying my Victory Plug Dakraid!

Load Texture 2D From File!

JPG, PNG, BMP, ICO, EXR, and ICNS are Supported File Formats !

With this node you can load a Texture 2D from a file during runtime!

I output for you the width and height of the loaded image!

Now you can easily create Texture 2D's from image files in Blueprints, during runtime!


Special Note!

Tim Sweeney liked this node!


Enjoy!

Rama

PS: Make sure to include the file extension when you use this node!

C++ Code For You

Here is the core C++ function involved, entire source is in the download! I wrote my own Enum for the file formats.

UTexture2D* UVictoryBPFunctionLibrary::Victory_LoadTexture2D_FromFile(const FString& FullFilePath,EJoyImageFormats ImageFormat, bool& IsValid,int32& Width, int32& Height)
{
	IsValid = false;
	UTexture2D* LoadedT2D = NULL;
	
	IImageWrapperModule& ImageWrapperModule = FModuleManager::LoadModuleChecked<IImageWrapperModule>(FName("ImageWrapper"));
	
	IImageWrapperPtr ImageWrapper = ImageWrapperModule.CreateImageWrapper(GetJoyImageFormat(ImageFormat));
 
	//Load From File
	TArray<uint8> RawFileData;
	if (!FFileHelper::LoadFileToArray(RawFileData, * FullFilePath)) 
	{
		return NULL;
	}
	
	  
	//Create T2D!
	if (ImageWrapper.IsValid() && ImageWrapper->SetCompressed(RawFileData.GetData(), RawFileData.Num()))
	{ 
		const TArray<uint8>* UncompressedBGRA = NULL;
		if (ImageWrapper->GetRaw(ERGBFormat::BGRA, 8, UncompressedBGRA))
		{
			LoadedT2D = UTexture2D::CreateTransient(ImageWrapper->GetWidth(), ImageWrapper->GetHeight(), PF_B8G8R8A8);
			
			//Valid?
			if (!LoadedT2D) 
			{
				return NULL;
			}
			
			//Out!
			Width = ImageWrapper->GetWidth();
			Height = ImageWrapper->GetHeight();
			 
			//Copy!
			void* TextureData = LoadedT2D->PlatformData->Mips[0].BulkData.Lock(LOCK_READ_WRITE);
			FMemory::Memcpy(TextureData, UncompressedBGRA->GetData(), UncompressedBGRA->Num());
			LoadedT2D->PlatformData->Mips[0].BulkData.Unlock();

			//Update!
			LoadedT2D->UpdateResource();
		}
	}
	 
	// Success!
	IsValid = true;
	return LoadedT2D;
}

@Rama - Hah yeah, that's why I posted, it's definitely there and is compiling against the 4.8 source. Really weird.

Edit: Switch engine version on the project did it, for some reason making a copy for 4.8 didn't already do that. Thanks!

[The_Shane]

Wow, I'd been looking for an image importer for what feels like forever. Thanks so much!
One question: How should I go about translating heightmap values to coordinates/z values?
I'm trying to export my heightmap from UE4, then import it with the image reader to determine the z coordinates when spawning objects, but there's obviously going to be a difference in magnitude.
I've managed to get the coordinates somewhat close with hand drawn maps, but anything exported from UE4 and reimported for reference is pretty off.

For reference, if I set the landscape's location to 0,0,0, I can get almost kind of accurate Z values by dividing the X/Y Coordinates by 100 and rounding, then adjusting the Z value until it matches up with one coordinate, at which point it generally matches up with the others.

Yea it sounds like you are going to have arbitrary scaling values that you need to apply until you end up in the proper range, and it sounds like it could vary per image.

If you come up with a formula for that I can get you a node to iteratively test faster, or you can create a Blueprint Function Library, the BP asset kind, and do the equation there and then you've created your own node to iteratively test with

Good luck!

Rama's BP Config File (.ini) Suite



Rama' Suite of Custom Config Section BP Nodes!

Using my new suite of BP nodes, you can create as many of your own custom config file sections as you want!

You can both create and retrieve ini variables with any name and fundamental type that you want!

~~~

Supported Types:

Bool
Int
Float
Rotator
Vector
Color
String

~~~

Why Use a Config Var?

Config vars have several benefits

1. Persistent data storage without using a SaveGame struct or GameInstance, store simple quantities of data and player customization this way! Data is stored between level loads and even after the current instance of the game is shut down.

So in this way config vars have greater persistence than the GameInstance class!

2. Player-Driven Customization, Players of your game can tweak the config vars that you make available for them on their hard disk, by editing the .ini file directly, just like AAA games! This is the most significant advantage of using config files, and their real core purpose.

3. Simplicity, simpler to use than the BP SaveSystem (which is quite wonderful by the way), but not quite as powerful in that you can only store basic data types, not UObjects and Actors.

4. Organization, you can create as many config header sections as you want using my nodes, organizing all your custom settings this way!

~~~

Game.ini

All of your custom created config vars and sections are stored in:

Saved/Config/Windows/Game.ini

Players can navigate to this location on their harddrive to edit your ini files just like any AAA game would allow!

Here's what my Game.ini file looks like after running some tests!

[DebugWindows]
ConsoleWidth=160
ConsoleHeight=4000
ConsoleX=-32000
ConsoleY=-32000

[/Script/UnrealEd.ProjectPackagingSettings]
BuildConfiguration=PPBC_Development
StagingDirectory=(Path="E:/MYPROJECT_DELETE")
FullRebuild=True
ForDistribution=False
UsePakFile=True
UseOBB_InAPK=False
CulturesToStage=en

[Victory]
BoolVar=True
VectorVar=X=1.000 Y=2.000 Z=9000.123
StrVar=Yay For Custom Config Vars!!!
FloatVar=234.000000

Now you have fully featured ability to use config variables entirely in BP!

~~~

Usage

Here's an example usage!

Silly me. I had forgotten to account for the elevation's negative range values. Works like a charm now!

[Sahkan]

Hey Rama! Is there any way to have a node that can fetch static meshes in obj format so i can apply the textures i already can fetch to them?
It can be, fbx, obj, or w/e is comfortable. I think obj will be more simple to do, but again, i don't really have a clue.
It will be really awesome to let players use their own modeled weapons, accessories, and in my game's case, build levels with their own meshes as decoration.

With anything you'v already made ( textures, sounds, config ini ) I think the mesh fetching will make the game the ultimate moddable game.

[Sahkan]

This one did the job for me:

right click on .uproject, and select switch engine version to 4.8

I think it should be in the main instructions to prevent users from reading a lot of pages just to get into this one.

[Tekoppar]

Ohh those custom config nodes are sexy Rama, would it be possible to have custom .ini files in the future?
