- First, these steps don’t appear to work with ue4 v24. Consistent crashes on composure element passes.
- Second there doesn’t appear to be any documentation on controlling Anti-aliasing with those same composure element passes.

It seems the code on this page : [https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/…2/7/index.html](https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/Programming/Tutorials/FirstPersonShooter/2/7/index.html) does not work with UE 4.24.2.  
I don’t know where the error is exactly.

Also, I found a bug in the previous code ([https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/Programming/Tutorials/FirstPersonShooter/2/3/index.html](https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/Programming/Tutorials/FirstPersonShooter/2/3/index.html)) but I don’t know how to solve it : when looking the ground or the sky (pitch Y axis), the forward/backward speed is reduced, almost to 0, while the left/right speed is not affected.  
The documentation is saying this :  
[]

In a typical FPS control scheme, the character’s movement axes are relative to the camera. “Forward” movement means “the direction that the camera is pointing” and “right” means “to the right of the direction that the camera is pointing.” You are going to use the PlayerController to get the character’s control rotation. Also, your MoveForward function will ignore the pitch component of the control rotation and restrict your input to the XY plane so as to guarantee that your character will move along the ground while you are looking up or down.

Would be nice to have a comments section on each page of the documentation. Some of it is out of date and/or incorrect. This page is an example of both: [Creating an Aim Offset | Unreal Engine Documentation](https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/Engine/Animation/AnimHowTo/AimOffset/index.html)

I found a mistake in documentation _Behavior Tree Quick Start Guide_, at the 5 step in _5 - Task Setup - Find Random Patrol_, it create a local variable called **PatrolLocation** which can’t be used by Blackboard data. Then the AI character will not move randomly.

Hi there !

\>On the page\*\* Import Into Level (FBX Scene Import)\*\*  
[https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/…ene/index.html](https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/Engine/Content/Importing/FBX/FullScene/index.html)

\>In the § **Reimport List Filter Buttons** (close ro the end)

\>In the Table\*\*,\*\* the \*description \*of the \*action \*\*Add \*\*\*is: “This will automatically create a folder representing each tier in the hierarchy. The folder will be named after the first item found at that hierarchy level.”

It seems to be a wrong copy-past of the line of the description of the _ **Create Content Folder Hierarchy** _, contained in the § \*\*FBX Scene Import Options Dialog \> Available Options \*\*upper on the same page.

The right description should be :  
“This only shows those assets in the FBX scene that have been added since the last import.”

Hello,

I noticed that the GetHandle() function for FInputActionBinding has been deprecated from version 4.20 of Unreal. Its still marked as an active function in the documentation.

Hi, I had gone through “Multiplayer Programming Quickstart Guide”

- Step 5.5 says add the following code to the constuctor. Example says the header file.

- Step 6.4 Typo in StartFire().

- World-\>GetTimerManager().SetTimer(FiringTimer, this, &AThirdPersonMP **424** Character::StopFire, FireRate, false);

Great guide to start from by the way 🙂

I left feedback about the Landscape Technical Guide and recommended settings but i have since read it several times and tried to understand the differences but i need to test the settings to see what you intend them to do.

I can’t explain what i read as they differ in both naming and representation in the documentation page v.s in the Editor . I will post back here if i eventually get it and if there are something to “report”

This is why i deleted content in this post
