Someone else will have to let us know about that, I am too busy coding AI to try out the 4.7 preview, on a tight schedule but if anyone finds out if it works let me know!

2D Interpolation Functions for UMG and 2D Game Animations
**Using these nodes in my plugin you can now easily make your own translation animations for 2D games and UMG!
**
I realized the need for these animations while trying to manually animate UMG widgets in BP.
I am in process of submitting this as a pull request for the main engine.

Thanks Rama! They just released Preview 2 of 4.7 so i’m going to give it a try. Kind of have to since i’m on a deadline too. Really appreciate the work you’ve done for us!
Let me know how it goes!
Soon as 4.7 release comes out I will be updating!

Accepted by Epic
These two nodes will be in a near future engine release!

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

PS: Here's example usage!

Hi Rama,
i love your plugin library. It is possible to make a “get light brightness” node to detect the light levels on pawn or other actor? I found here the code.
Hey there Ulrich,
I made one quick example for you in Blueprints (I converted the code you provided). So till Rama makes one you can play around with this.
Hope you enjoy
Many thanks ryanjon!!! :o
Yes thanks Ryan for doing that!
Great to hear from you Ulrich!
If I get time I will try to implement your request!
Thanks for all your own community contributions Ulrich!

Waoooo ! I love you Rama :rolleyes:
I am looking for a bundle like that since a long time !
It’s wonderful to share your work =)
I have not yet test all your library, but i have already a request
I’m interest to have a node to control the object mass.
As you can see in my answer in this thread : Change Mass using Blueprints
##############
Here’s what I know :
We want to have an object with a Mass exactly = 1.00000 Kg
I take a mesh and set Physical properties :
All this calculation is so complicated, i just want to be able to set manually the mass of my object !!!
In fact, there is a value in the physical material which cause this problem and seems to be use by the engine for the calculation :
Do you know how engine calculate the mass object ? what values and calculations are used ? I would like understand if it’s possible!!
Maybe you can overpass the engine calculation to be able to “Set Mass” precisely with a node ! and verify if the “Get mass” node -included in UE4- returns the same value…
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/21672921/_FORUM/ue4-mass.jpg
Thanks a lot !
Awesome progress ! I hope epic will fix that bug that we can’t pack games with plugins in the next version.
Super cool new nodes, yay!
Hee hee!

Now works in packaged games!
You can use this with your UMG menus!
It gathers data specific to the end user’s display adapter, including all available refresh rates

Hi there! Nice colors in your post!
You shouldn’t be setting the mass directly, what I can do easily is give you a node to set the mass scale of any primitive component / static mesh / skeletal mesh.
By playing with the mass scale on a per-object basis you can get the object to have the effective movement/physics that you want in game.
If you are doing some kind of 3d weight scale game and you actually need 1 kg every time, it will require much more effort on my part
Mass scale is easy and universally useful!
**Mass to Power 0 = 1**
[QUOTE=martoof;205376]
In fact, there is a value in the physical material which cause this problem and seems to be use by the engine for the calculation :
- Raise Mass to Power = 0.75 by default
If I set Raise Mass to Power = 0.0 ---> my object has Mass in Kg = 1.001 :( WHY !!!! :confused:[/COLOR]
##############
[/QUOTE]
**If you raise anything to the power of 0, the value is 1! **
**Conceptual proof:**
This is because power implies Self-Multiplication, (x^2 = x * x), and the only thing you can multiply any number by and get itself is 1. So 1 is this Eternal Constant when it comes to exponential math, anything to 0 power is the same, constant, unchanged Origin of all exponential math. All numbers to the 0 power trace back to the same single point, the number 1, so this is Origin. And 0 represent the concept of Origin!
**Conventional Proof:**
```
X^y
x^0 = x^(y-y) = --- = 1
x^y
```
**So um, is that all you need then? A phys mat with power to 0?**
Mass scale as a BP node would be much more useful to more people and gives you fine tuned control on a per-object basis, and does not require phys-mats to be set anywhere :)

Rama what do you mean “Now work in packed games” ? What does it take to work in a pack game ? Is it possible to pack a game with all of the nodes from the plugin ?
