Hey everyone!
We’re going at the Gamescom with the Indie studio I’m working on. I’ll be at Cologne!
As you can see I’m still keeping an eye on the discord to solve the easy problems. But that’s also why there are less MCE updates and tutorial releases at the moment.
I will try to push MCE 4.20 within the next week though
.
I might be less available within the next month.
Hope you enjoy MCE 
Good luck and have fun in your projects everyone!
Going to the Gamescom! It’s been a hard three weeks, working non-stop!
The 1.1 version of MCE will be released within the weeks after the Gamescom, alongside 4.20 compatibility.
Here is the patchnote:
General Update
MCE is in 1.1! (must-watch tutorial video)
Added 4.20 version of MCE to Itch.io and Unreal Marketplace
MCE is now using the built-in Unreal feature “Gameplay Tags” (must-watch tutorial video)
Example Content has been cleaned up (fonts unified and removed, example map reworked, notification & feedback improved) Skills
Beam feature has been updated to be friendlier to use (video tutorial incoming soon!)
Active Skills now have a variable called “CanBePressed” which turns on or off the fact that you can cast it. You can set it in the skill default variable or in SetActiveSkillMetrics
“LookingForTargets” and “Targets” variables’ and parameters’ name have been renamed to “TargetQuery” and “TargetQueries” for better recognition
Combat
Projectiles
Modifier
Bug Fixed
Client no longer had interaction response from skill pickups
Specifying no charge FX would make charged skill not work
Beam were passing through blocking collision
Chat manager failed to properly name players on initialization
Aura failed to display properly on client
Aura failed to properly update targets’ team and apply its effects accordingly
Aura failed to update properly on weird enter / exit behaviors
Example enemies were passing through the ground on death

I’ve just received a refund request from a 4.20 buyer who fails to package a project using MCE. I have not received any contact from the buyer unfortunately so I’m unsure what are the reasons / the setup for it to fail package.
I’ll investigate the issues within the next two days.
In the meantime, I’d be glad to hear any feedback regarding the issue.
Interesting product
what is not supported when using a dedicated server?
Nice tutorial!

Hello there!
As of now I never extensively tested in a dedicated server setup and I offer no support as of yet.
These are the main reasons the plugin is marked as “Listen Server” only, because I can’t guarentee the quality and functionnality.
However almost all features are working (except for the Beam system as far as I tested) and MCE is likely to receive an update (in a distant future) to support dedicated servers.
Thanks for your interest!
4.21 support coming?
Should be up soon! Sorry for the delay.
4.21 should be up next week
4.21 is up!
Hey Yun-Kun! I’ve just recently purchased MCE and wanted to say you’ve done a really good job on putting this all together.
It looks great and I’m excited to start using it!
Keep up the good work!
So i just bought MCE and so far I really like it. However, I have a slight problem I could use some help with. I created a new 4.21 project and added the code plugin. Things were moving and I closed down for the night. When I relaunched my project the next day, I get all kinds of script errors and BP errors. I have since switched to an all blueprint project and have not had the same issues.
In other plugins cases, when I want to use them IN code, sure I have to have references in my build.cs, do I need to do the same even though I’m not calling any functionality from C++?
We’re discussing this issue on Discord.
I’ll post the fix here.
EDIT: Problem has been fixed.
Bug: MCE failed to load properly when added to *some *of the base CPP templates.
Solved: MCE plugin type was set to “Developer” and load mode was set to “Default”. Type is now “Runtime” and load mode is now “PreDefault”. Errors have been fixed. MCE was being loaded in the wrong order in these specific CPP templates. MCE was running fine when creating blank projects, blueprint projects or some others CPP templates.
Update will be up by the next week.
Enjoy!
Hi Yun-Kun,
I’m looking to make a top-down Action-RPG similar to Diablo or PoE. I love the videos you have on your YouTube Channel!
I’m wondering, would MCE be a good starting ground for making such a game? I’ve already started by setting up the Gameplay Ability System from a Udemy course. Is your system similar to GAS? Thank you!
Hello @CaptainSavage_!
Thanks for your interest.
Your question is a pretty interesting one because MCE is really similar to GAS but it’s not using it.
I’d say GAS is an evolved but really harder to use version of what MCE offers. I’m actually thinking about reworking MCE for it to use GAS (in a distant future).
If you have the skills to learn and use the potential of GAS, I’d say you should learn it and build your own ability / stat system. MCE has some flaws regarding multiplayer advanced features such as movement prediction and multiplayer delay catch-up, flaws that GAS handles pretty well.
MCE is like a multiplayer game editor to prototype your game in a really short time. GAS is like a multiplayer game editor to ship a multiplayer game.
If you plan on shipping a game and you’re starting from scratch but with lots of programming background, GAS is your goal.
If you plan on doing learning projects or developing multiplayer prototypes, I’d say MCE is your goal. Of course, you can ship games with MCE, but it’s never going to be as clean as if GAS would have handle the multiplayer side of things.
I hope it answers your question. Feel free to quote me if it does not 
Have a great day everyone!
EDIT: MCE is like a complete system when GAS is like the pipes you use to build your system.
EDIT2: I also had question about MCE in on the marketplace page, questions that I can’t answer because they are part of the ‘legacy comments’. I’m going to answer them here:
Yes definitely, MCE should not get in the way of AWS.
What do you mean you ‘can’t’ find it? It’s contained within the game examples (or it should be). Tell me if you don’t find it there.
Also, 4.23 should be up soon
Thank you for the detailed response! I don’t have any coding knowledge, but I’m enjoying learning. I don’t expect to have a game for a few years, but I have a good idea of what I want to build. I think I will stick with GAS for now… I seem to understand the ability system, my biggest trouble has been in the inventory system and clickable skillbar widgets. More to learn!
Also, I think in your EDIT2, you meant to say “should interact” if I’m reading it correctly.
Hi， the“join discord” invite has expired, so I cannot enter the discord channel now. I am hoping that you can drag me in again. Thanks!
Thanks for pointing this error out! I’ve updated the link and answered you on Youtube to give it to you.
For those who might be wondering: Discord.io/YunCorp
See you there!
