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

Meguido · September 30, 2017, 2:24pm

That line is only necessary if you’re using the Vertex Snap Editor plugin. So if what you’re using is just Victory plugin then you don’t have to add anything to that file.

Hi ,
I use your plugin on 4.17, and the node “Capture Component 2D Save Image” returns always false. “Capture 2D Save Image” works fine but in my setup I use a component, so…
Thanks for your job !

EDIT : In my setup the capture component is on my controller. The function “save image” can’t be used directly from the pawn and has to be called as a custom event on the controller. So it works.

BTW is there a way to record an image sequence (1save each frame or to set up the frequency) way ? Or saving a video ?

Several questions you can research to help me process faster

Does happen for you in prior engine versions?
Have you tried a really simple asset path like Content/SampleMesh and a different asset like staticmesh?

I’ve never had issues with node so the 2 pts above will help decipher what is going on in your situation faster.

oh and Welcome to the UE4 Forums!

Hee hee!

Great to hear from you @hecto600 !

any idea how to get unixtime from the system and get it as string? I need it for a http parser

Rama · October 17, 2017, 1:45am

The functions you want are in DateTime.h



/**
     * Returns  date as the number of seconds since the Unix Epoch (January 1st of 1970).
     *
     * @return  of day.
     * @see FromUnixTimestamp
     */
    CORE_API int64 ToUnixTimestamp() const
    {
        return (Ticks - FDateTime(1970, 1, 1).Ticks) / ETimespan::TicksPerSecond;
    }

/**
     * Returns the date from Unix  (seconds from midnight 1970-01-01)
     *
     * @param UnixTime Unix  (seconds from midnight 1970-01-01)
     * @return Gregorian date and .
     * @see ToUnixTimestamp
     */
    static FDateTime FromUnixTimestamp( int64 UnixTime )
    {
        return FDateTime(1970, 1, 1) + FTimespan(UnixTime * ETimespan::TicksPerSecond);
    }

I will add them soon!

anonymous_user_6fdb4abd · October 17, 2017, 12:14pm

only works in development mode. Is it possible to use in shipping mode?

Rama · October 17, 2017, 11:13pm

I can’t change the engine code that makes these nodes not work in a shipping build, if I could I would, but then you’d have to use a custom engine build

You / We will have to petition Epic to make it so DrawDebugLine works in shipping builds again

up until 4.13

DrawDebugHelpers.h



/**
 *
 */


#pragma once

in 4.14 +



#pragma once

 // Define that controls debug drawing
#define ENABLE_DRAW_DEBUG  !(UE_BUILD_SHIPPING || UE_BUILD_TEST)

#if ENABLE_DRAW_DEBUG

Translation = Epic disabled ability to use DrawDebugLine in a hardcoded way with no cvar / config.ini option to include anyway (as far as I know), in a shipping build.

So either use Pre 4.14 or use a custom engine build, or use MeshBuilder to make your own debug lines (requires C++)

Here’s a demo of me using UE4’s MeshBuilder to draw a Torus Knot from equations:

https://forums.unrealengine.com/deve…-knots-for-fun

=Sh19_Py5ff4

PS:: having written that, and if there’s enough public request for it, I could try and make less performant draw debug line using my above code that would work in packaged game. If enough people respond that they find it essential I could work on it.

anonymous_user_6fdb4abd · October 18, 2017, 12:02pm

Thank you very much for your answer. I think drawing simple shapes : line , circle(perhaps a sector) , the rectangle will be useful and convenient. I use to display the navigation lines, some interface elements. Not always convenient to use on Spline or widgets to display such simple things. However, method has the drawback that when rotating in three-dimensional space - these lines are not visible ((.

Syaoran · October 24, 2017, 9:57am

Hi, Thank you for reply.

Does happen for you in prior engine versions?
I try UE4.16 and VictoryPlugin for 4.16, it also crash the editor.
Have you tried a really simple asset path like Content/SampleMesh and a different asset like staticmesh?
I try load staticmesh with right path, it load success, but when I add one more “/” like “//”, ex:StaticMesh’/Game/MitContent/Mesh//SM_Stage_FloorDisk.SM_Stage_FloorDisk’ ,UE4 editor will crash.

Because we use append to assembly path, and forget to check variable is null, so result path with double slashes.

I think if name containing double slashes, then UE4 editor will crash.

Meguido · October 24, 2017, 11:13am

Sorry to keep bothering you with hehe. But maybe you just forgot releasing 4.17 so just to remind you. I keep playing with 4.16 version while waiting for 4.17 to fully update my project.

Regards.

Info About Victory Plugin for 4.18

Dear Community,

I have a big demo for my game tomorrow so I can’t do 4.18 upgrade today/tomorrow.

If anyone in community would like to do the upgrade and post to github then I would be most appreciative.

OverRated_AU · October 25, 2017, 9:45am

There a lot of changes in 4.18 seems like the plugin needs a far amount of fixes.

OverRated_AU · October 26, 2017, 12:24pm

@ any ETA on an update I’ve tried fixing the errors my self but without knowing what they have changes make it hard to fix plus i couldn’t find any info on it ether. thanks
