MMO Starter Kit

[CodeSpartan]

Have you tried building without nativization? Does it work?

Does the problem appear only when you turn nativization on?

Have you modified the kit or are you building stock version? The errors look like it fails during nativization of some code that's related to matchmaking. Do you have anything like that in your project?

Can I make it without database ,but with saving [players log out positions and equipment] on server side [ save plugin] or it won't work ?
Or i ask other way it will work when i host server from my pc and it will store data in sql file , right ?

You can save it using ue4's save game system, but then it wouldn't be an mmo, it'd be a session based game. I recommend to keep one savegame file per character.

Saving and retrieving happens in the playerstate, so if you're going to rewrite it, this is where you start.

Can I make database local so players must to conenct to host's machine [server] ?

UE4.21.1 Packaging problem, through the project startup package, select Windows Client and Windows Server. After packaging, the client connects to the dedicated server through IP and port. The new players and the server spawn items can see, can not click by mouse。 The bullets spawn by the server can be seen，can not collision. Checking the dedicated server in the editor is good work, isn't listen server,why?

UE4.21.1，Map spawn Actors, custom object/trace channels and event hit work in editor but not packaged game.

Hi. If something works in editor, but doesn't work in a cooked build, it's usually not easy to find out why. Best course of action I can recommend is
- Try to replicate this behavior on a clean project, and if you're successful, report it to Epic as a bug. They usually respond pretty quickly.
- Try to debug it in the cooked build using a lot of "print string"s to find out what exactly fails.

That's what I'd do. I personally have no experience with 4.21, I'm still on 4.19 with my project and I'm not in a hurry to migrate.

Yes, if you save characters using save game mechanics, they'll be saved only on the machine where your server is running.

report bug to Epic, How to contact Epic

Yskwork, If you look at the top of this page, there is a search icon. if you type in " bug report" and click search.. you then get this link. https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/support/report-a-bug I have seen you ask a number of things that a simply search would have answered. You might try looking for answers a bit. Self reliance gives you two things. a faster answer, and confidence in being able to help others.
Happy New Year.

Sorry to be so Snarky, (Kinda)

Hi, I have a few questions:
1. Are you going to ever put the MMO starter kit on the Unreal Marketplace?
2. And out of curiosity, why haven't you done so already? A lot of us prefer using the marketplace as its easier to keep track of things, especially if something has been updated.
3. How does levels & landscape work with this kit? For instance if you want a very large open world game in one level, is that already implemented from the start or do you need some type of custom level transitioning implemented on your own etc? What is the default setup for the kit in regards to levels/worlds? How big can a level be by default using your kit? If you can only have limited size levels, how are multiple levels handled by default using your kit?

Have you tried contacting sellfy? They should be able to help you, but I don't have to tools to do anything. All I can tell you is if your payment went through or not, and on my end it looks like it didn't. Please send them a message (it's a round pop-up in the bottom right corner on their website). Sorry for the inconvenience. Should you be required to make the purchase again (when your money returns), send me a PM and I'll give you a discount.

1. I'm strongly considering it.
2. Originally, it was because code projects weren't accepted at the time (it was a long time ago). Now it's ok, so it shouldn't be a problem.
3. You need to implement transitions and you need to save server port when character quits (let's suppose that one port always corresponds to a certain level) and when character enters, you need to retrieve it on client so you know where to connect. The principle is described in the documentation. So it's not something that you have out of the box, but it's not difficult to do on your own.

Hi, ya I rarely buy Unreal assets bought plenty of Unity. , but would love to buy yours but I typically wont buy things off asset stores, no offense, got burned in the past. So hopefully you do. if you do I would be happy to support Thanks!
