Resizing of Character for a walkthrough

[Haanswors]

How do I resize a Character so it can go through doors, as I notice the options to do so is greyed out? I actually would have to scale up my modelled house crazy big, but then the dimensions would be way out and unrealistic. This is for UE5

[ClockworkOcean]

What character? First person, third person? Can you show the door etc?

[Haanswors]

There is no door, its just an opening, this is 1st person “player Start” I’m Creating a Maze. It is an imported maze created in FBX format

[ClockworkOcean]

Ok, you basically scale the collision capsule

Unless it’s a character you’ve written, in which case, you can just scale the capsule with the scale tool.

[Haanswors]

I noticed that when I changed the radius of the capsule and exited, the values on the right which are greyed out never changed

[ClockworkOcean]

That’s not the character, that’s the player start

Sorry, I’m new and busy doing the online course!

In world settings, click the ‘browse to’ button

Unless you have made a pawn for this exercise, then edit that…

This is what I have been getting most of my day , I’ m gonna call it quits for now

When I import my Maze mesh, which is one solid piece, is there something I have to do to it before I can interact with it. I still can’t walk into the entrance. I know where the capsule radius is for editing in the blueprint, but it does not matter what size I make it, I still can’t walk into the maze. I’m thinking something is up with the maze mesh

[ClockworkOcean]

Ah, you didn’t say that…

Yes, if you look at the collision in the static mesh editor, you’ll find find it’s a solid block. You’re never going to be walking in there.

But, no worries, you can set the system to use the complex collision

[Haanswors]

How do I find that Simple Collision menu? can’t find it sorry

[Haanswors]

OMW, thanks much, I finally found it and its now working magic, I owe you a beer
