Cars and Third Person

Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint
1

I know how to make a third person game( I saw the videos). So, I want to make a third person game. For that, I wanted to use the car in the car racing template(shown in the time trial videos). I don’t know how to:

  1. Make the car, or better yet, use the same one inside the template.
  2. Shift my control from third person to car(also third person), and then back to character at a different position.

Also, I would like to add the gun from the first person shooter to my third person character’s arm(maybe make a new socket). How is this done? And can it be done as in have a hand, when I go near a gun and press F, I then hold the gun, performing same lower leg animations BUT different animations upper body? And how to activate bullets only if I hold a gun?

TeslaDev has got you covered. Look for his YouTube channel, at his archived Twitch stream videos, where he does exactly what you are asking for. (Seriously, it’s like he was reading your mind). Car, third person, first person, guns, running animations. It’s all there. :slight_smile:
