4.13 Released!

so the contact shadow feature is not in this release … at least officially , right ?

[=;593720]
, any word on the constraint drive bug I posted above? The answer hub post is here and it’s been added to the issue tracker. But it’s marked as targeted for 4.14 fix. I can’t really understand this. Use of physics motors in code has been fundamentally broken as a result of simple to fix errors introduced in a refactor (there wasn’t even any new functionality added). I just want to confirm that you guys are fully aware of this, as to me it’s surprising that this would not be something high on the list of things to address in the next hotfix.

Hi . I don’t have any additional information on this issue, but it was reviewed by our lead framework engineer and the target was set for the 4.14 release.

Correct. It is still experimental in 4.13. Not fully ready yet.

Hope to see Path Follow plugin updated soon. Heard its been ready over a week just waiting approval in marketplace. :wink:

Hi cores25,

As with any release, major or hotfix, we don’t announce any specific dates for them to be available. It should be coming in the next week or two, though. We’ll post an update here in this thread once it is released. :slight_smile:

I ran into this problem, too. It would be even better if you could set the lightmap coordinate index on import.

Is this version fully compatible with iOS 10 ? I updated my iOS to 10 and my 4.12 app stopped working.

I dont if its a bug or a missing feature, but would be nice if we could play a Alembic Geometry Cache Actor Animation in reverse and not loop the animation. Right now, turning the loop off, just work on positive Playback speeds.

I need you add cross dissolve of audio tracks.
In DAW sequencers if you overlap audio tracks you achieve automatic cross dissolve or you can drag heads and tails to create fades.
At the moment dragging audio tracks on Sequncer is pretty useless.
I haven’t control through blueprints, if you stop-play-pause you haven’t no feedback. Stopping a Sequncencer track doesn’t stop audio.
Please make audio tracks handling more powerful.
Also I’d like to have drag and drop of audio effects directly on audio tracks, automatically a cue will be created.
Audio must be revisited.
Timecode on Sequencer doesn’t exist at all. I need hh:mm:ss:ff. I need to precisely put my playhead at a certain timecode.
I need to strectch in time selected keyframes. Please look at 3ds how keyframes are treated.

regards

thanks.

EDITED: Nevermind, got rid of my problem after verifying engine. Had some corrupted shadder it seemed.

Opened a report in answers : Possible memory leak after Xcode 8 installation - C++ - Epic Developer Community Forums

Hello all! I would really appreciate it if you could add the ability to expose the Sub Anim Instance node’s “Instance Class” variable as a pin in the next hotfix! Thank you!

hey guys… been playing with sequencer and i don’t know how to fix this, but it would be great if i could…

i have two characters that i put into one BP… they both have different skeletons and different anim BP’s… in gameplay they walk together just fine, no problems there… but when i go to record a sublevel, only the c++, root mesh, has the animation recorded, the other just glides beside it…

now i’ve gone ahead and just recorded each one individually for now, so i do have a work around… but i was just wondering if i could build a game instance or struct or something in BP to get sequencer to record a gameplay sublevel and capture both anims for both skeletal meshes…

i’m not much of one for asking questions or pointing out things… but my curiosity must be satisfied… is there a way?

thank you Epic for all the hard work, it is muchly appreciated :slight_smile:

landscape is black using layerblend heightblend works fine in 4.12 though
