Two HTMl5 Game Nodes For You! Show/Hide Cursor (Reliably) and IsHtml5!
Dear Community,
I’ve spent most of my spare for past 2 days researching a particular related to HTML5 developmenti n UE4, which is the that it is very hard to show/hide the mouse cursor at will when playing a UE4 game within a web browser!
My fundamental was being able to show hide the cursor when switching between UMG and regular gameplay, and the node I am giving you today does !
I’ve finally generated a BP node that makes it easy for you to properly and definitively show/hide the mouse cursor at any of your choosing, during runtime within a HTML5 game!
**Non-HTML5 Games**
Note: I've made a separate C++ File for my HTML5 nodes, please note code will not clutter your game if you are not making an HTML5 game.
**The HTML5 includes and code are not even compiled** if your game is not packaged for HTML5!
~~
**HTML5 Games**
The SetCursorVisible node will show up in-Editor but will not do anything unless your game is packaged for HTML5.
See my picture for the event you can write using my BP Library to show/hide the cursor for HTML5 OR regular UE4 games!
Is HTML5
I’ve written a C++ boolean check that you can easily make into a switch macro to perform unique BP Logic based on whether your game is currently running on an HTML5 build or is an editor/console build!
allows you to use different Particle / Lighting Settings / Quality Settings, or any other custom BP logic you want, based on whether the game is an HTML5 build or not!
Yay!
Happy Holidays!
Enjoy!
