Can you expand on point, does properly mean they act same as instance params? I had an (my post here) with parameters being reset when I play game after modifying values in editor, is not case anymore? Does construction script now run using values entered into editor and no longer require duplicating into Begin Play event?

Thank you :slight_smile:

Nice of ya’ll to update on last day of my sub. lol very nice! :smiley:

(just to check out if Maya LT will work better than Blender on model imports)(in immortal words of ‘Arnold’ -> “I’ll Be Back!”)

I feel a lot better with a ‘.1’ at end, I have a fear of Zeroes! hehe

Thanks guys n girls

11

I got an here after update, my editor now starts automatically cooking content for launch sometimes from nowhere.

12

Excited to see improvements for retargeting! I have to note that still in 4.5.1, retarget/duplicate workflow for differing skeletons (described here) will break looping animations by causing a jerk at end of each sequence, which cannot be fixed by checking “Add looping interpolation”.

*Did a quick test to see

  1. Created new 3rd Person Template
  2. Clicked Play
  3. Ejected
  4. Clicked Stop

Working fine here, no crash.

Hi ,

specific for Material Paramater Collections that was fixed for 4.5.1 was : “Material Parameter Collections are not functioning when called through BPs, give a None error in PIE log”

Cheers

Thanks for quick update!
However,i have come across some issues:after I check or uncheck metal/opengles in project settings, engine crashes when I hit package project-----IOS.

And mobile preview still cannot cast shadows on landscape while real mobile devices can.
