i want to know how to add a cut scene after a certain distance in my endless runner game.This cut scene is a comic strip that is displayed to the screen after the player reaches a certain distance in the game. I am very basic to Unreal Engine and really need help.my deadline is really really close.
What kind of cutscene? Are you thinking of having it play a video file or are you planning to choreograph something in the Level to move around?
Depending on how you want to create and play your cutscene, you’ll have to take a different approach.
Also do you want it to interrupt the gameplay or only play at the end of the course?
Oh wait it’s an endless runner, so I guess the answer is to interrupt the gameplay which probably means pausing everything except the cutscene-related Actors and/or Widgets.
as a term of design.
- Set player speed to zero " better lerping it so its not sudden stop"
- do the same for any object that chasing it.
- trigger the event where the cut scene is starting.
- once the cut scene is finished set the player speed and chasing object back to normal.
How: “its hard to explain exactly, so I will say how as points that may help u”
- Create a blueprint with a box collider .
- Place it in the scene where you want to trigger the cutscene to play.
- -Back to blueprint, and check, once the OnBeginOverLap, do ur magic as I described.
- -Then after the animation over, u can set everything back to normal even you can destory this class at runtime
As a Cut scene itself, you must learn how to work with sequencer :))
