I noticed when you equip the shotgun it doesn’t show up in players hands but you can still shoot?

Thanks for reporting this. This issue just occurs since UE4.16 and I missed it during my tests. It looks like the visibility of the shotgun mesh toggles. This does not only occur during the game but also in the editor viewport of the mesh. It seems like the Editor has some problems just with this mesh and it’s not a bug of my template itself. However I will take a look at this trying to find out what’s causing it. But I hope you’re not planning to use this bad modelled version of my shotgun in a game but instead a shotgun made by a person more experienced with modelling

Currently I doubt that it will be the case but if you notice similar issues with other meshes using this template please let me know.

Nah i am going to use my own lol so basically i noticed when you go into the house the first room on the right the cabinet spawns a shotgun all the time but when i open the blueprint on that cabinet and go too the inventory part it is not referenced there? and when i wanna put my own item in as a new spawn it won’t show up when i play the game? is there any chance you could make a video tutorial just to make everything a bit more easier to understand? Thanks

That’s pretty easy I’ve overwritten the array of lootable items (in the inventory component) in the instances of lootable actors that are spawned on the example map such that the respective instance has exactly the loot I want. If you simply spawn a new lootable actor of the class you’ve changed on the map it will use the default lootable items array of its class.

i have sent emails over a week ago and pm doesn’t seem to work, maby i could get help here.
What do i need to add/remove to get this working with a 3rd person controller

[anonymous_user_5882066e]

I’ve answered this question a few posts ago. I’ll quote myself:

@anonymous_user_5882066e

• Shorten / rotate the spring arm component the camera is attached to within BP_PlayerCharacter so it fits your needs.
• Change the rotation of the spring arm component from Absolute Rotation to Relative Rotation.
• Within EventTick of BP_PlayerCharacter remove the call to FindAndSetRotation (and remove that event) and replace this with your desired way of rotating the character. Most likely you want to use the controller rotation here? Copy & pasting the part from the respective template should do the trick here.
• Change the InputAxis events MoveUp & MoveRight to your needs. You may want to rename MoveUp to MoveForward. Copy & pasting the part of the respective template should work here aswell.
• Change the FindActorToInteract to your needs. Currently it traces a sphere from actor location into actor direction. In FirstPerson / ThirdPerson you’d rather want to trace from actor / camera location into camera direction.

Please note that the example map will most likely not really work / look ugly once you’re not using the TopDown view anymore.

@LagrangePoint

Hi there! this is a great template I did purchase it although its for top view twin stick shooter, I know it can be modified (everything is possible) to third / first person shooter, I did try different things but still got stuck, I think its a bit tricky and a lot of things need to be changed but im still trying, can you give me some ideas please? I suppose that im not the only one interested in this modification, Thank you !

did u get this to work, if so can you share how as im just getting nothing from author on email or forums, i tryed what he posted but still not working

[anonymous_user_5882066e]

I’m sorry for responding so late but due to business matters I have to travel very much currently and therefore don’t have access to my working machine.

I’m sorry but I can’t develop other people’s games for them. I’m sure this is understandable. Please note that marketplace creators are only required to fix bugs and update to new engine version. Nonetheless I’ve always given much more support to my customers. Explaining them how implemented features work, giving detailed ideas how I would approach solving problems they face / implementing new features they want and sometimes even giving step-by-step instructions if I had the time and felt that the customers already tried hard.

But there are some questions that have to be answered in detail before anyone can give support for anything.

What result do you exactly want?
What are you currently experiencing instead?
What have you tried so far?

ive tryed what you posted on the forum, it didnt work, all im trying to do is get a 3rd person controler workin instead of the top down twin stick controls, im not askin you to add features to the kit all im askin is how to get the 3rd person template character working with this

[oldnag]

has anyone thats bought this got 3rd person to work that could share how.

[oldnag]

ok ive been trying for over a week to try get the third person controler to work but every thing i try does not work, im not amazing at the engine so PLEASE can you help me to get this to work please. ffs its not alot to ask of you.

[anonymous_user_5882066e]

Could you send a detailed description with how exactly you want the controls to work per mail? Do you probably want to have the same controls a popular game has? If so, include its name please. Furthermore please send me a detailed description why it’s not working so far / how the controls currently work. Ideally including screenshots.

Are the controls not working like wanted?
Is the camera not moving like wanted?
Is the camera not rotating like wanted?

[oldnag]

i have already sent a few emails and got no reply, im not sure why this is so hard to understand, when you launch a new project and choose 3rd person template. thats the controls i want. i had most of it working except the camera always needs right click to rotate and doesn’t no matter how hard i try look/rotate with mouse axis. i have the controls working just not the camera moving/rotating with mouse.

[oldnag]

ok so here is my settings

and as you can see in the .gif i need to hold the mouse button to move camera, how do i get rid of that so it moves with out pressing the mouse button.

[oldnag]

here u can see i need to press button to rotate

[oldnag]

Can ANYONE help me with this please.
