About me

My name is Calvin, I have been working as a programmer in the field of game project development for 9 years. I decided to create a project that would give developers the ability to quickly create high-quality RPG/Shooter/Survival games, and two years ago I started working on an RPG Engine project.
The main goal of the RPG Engine is to make game development accessible not only to professionals, but also to beginners. I am doing my best to provide the fastest and highest quality support for the project’s users. Also, customers offer ideas for new updates in our discord channel and I implement them for free.

The Amount of High Quality Multiplayer Features in this Product is Astounding. The System Design is really versatile too. The Best Game Template in the Marketplace.

WeberSystems · December 24, 2024, 7:58pm

Thank you!

WeberSystems · January 2, 2025, 9:46pm

Hello everyone! Work on updating the project is in full swing .
Today I finished developing the code responsible for killing the player when entering/exiting the car
Video

WeberSystems · January 3, 2025, 10:45pm

I’m back here with another progress report! Today I finished working on a system for the sound and visual effects of a car hitting obstacles.

WeberSystems · January 5, 2025, 1:40pm

Hey! A small interim report on the work on the Vehicles update:

Today I finished connecting vehicles to the mechanics of the map/minimap.
A new GUI has also been added to display vehicle health points.
Vehicles now take damage when they hit something. The damage points depend on the speed/type of the hit object.
Solved the problems of the character getting out of the vehicle if it is on the roof.
Fixed jitter on the client in multiplayer: now the movement of vehicles on the clients is also smoothly displayed.
Players can now heal not only other players, but also vehicles using the Heal Around Advanced skill, as planned before the publication of the project.

Remaining tasks:

Steering wheel + Character’s hands
Animation of killing a driver/passenger

So, the work on the update ends very soon and ahead of schedule.

Thank you for being with me!

TechLord · January 6, 2025, 7:49am

This is exciting!

WeberSystems · January 6, 2025, 10:04pm

Hello everyone again

Over the past few days, I’ve added the ability to use MorphTarget to make damage to cars look more realistic.

Video

Special thanks to the Epics team for developing such a great ChaosVehicles system.

P.S. I haven’t forgotten about the motorcycle system! It will definitely be added, but in a patch after the release of the main update. I think it’s better this way, because not everyone needs motorcycles, but everyone needs cars

WeberSystems · January 8, 2025, 10:30pm

Hello everyone! Today I finished developing the Vehicles update.

Video

The following has been done today:

Animation of the player receiving damage when he is in the car
IK for hands and steering wheel
Morph Targets in multiplayer
Connected the save system to cars. The following data can be saved: car location, amount of fuel, amount of health points, visual damage (Morph Targets). The system loads data correctly even if the client connects to the game with a large delay.
Complete debugging of the mechanics has been carried out

In the next few days, I will tidy up the code and comment it. After that, the update will be published. Next, there will be instructions on how to manually update the project to the new version.

P.S. I have a little surprise for you!
Added compatibility of the project with Synty Studios characters. This will be released as update 2.1.1. (after Vehicles - v2.0.1)

Thank you for being with me!

TechLord · January 9, 2025, 3:50am

RPG Engine’s Vehicle System is already Next Level. Curious, do or will Vehicles use the Skin/Customization system as Character and Weapons? I repeat, this is a curiosity, not an expectation.

Keep up the Awesome Work!

WeberSystems · January 9, 2025, 2:05pm

Bro, hello! Thank you! In fact, these mechanics are not implemented yet… However, they will definitely be added!

WeberSystems · January 9, 2025, 9:34pm

So, the update is complete. Now it’s time to:

Update the map: add ramps, road, tunnel;
Publish the update;
Create a video trailer for the update;
Supplement documentation;
Create a manual for updating the project to a new version for users.

Guys, I’m using this forum as a Trello dashboard, sorry

WeberSystems · January 16, 2025, 2:55pm

Hello everyone! Today I am ready to present you a new version of the project: RPG Engine V2.

The following features were added in this update:

SUV and sport car
Advanced engine sound - the latest MotoSynth plugin is used for this
Support for contextual animation system (entry, exit)
Headlights
Vehicle health points
Support for Morph Targets for collision visualization - the force of the dent depends on the impact speed
The effects of tire tracks, drift and dust from under the wheels depend on the surface
Fuel. Different types. You can refuel your car if the fuel runs out
A player sitting in a car can be killed by a shot from another player
A killed player can be thrown out of the car
The car can be blown up. Everyone inside will die
The effect of car destruction can be overridden. For example, the wheels of an SUV fly off and the physics asset changes
Steering wheel. Hands are attached to the steering wheel
You can ram other players and AI
Save system support (save file contains data about each vehicle: health points, fuel points, world transform, morph targets weight)
Many other fixes

A manual on how to add all these mechanics to a project manually will be ready in the next few days.

Huh?

WeberSystems · January 20, 2025, 9:54pm

Friends, hello everyone!
I am currently working on integrating the Mutable plugin into the project. A very interesting set of mechanics. I believe I can organically integrate this plugin into the RPG Engine project using the following method:

I will modify the equipment system so that you will have a choice: use the old method of dressing the character or use the method from the Mutable plugin. The same with the character skins.

If we talk about the impressions of the plugin, then this is a very powerful tool. Alas, the lack of documentation is a serious problem. However, this test has awakened in me a sincere interest for the first time in a long time.

Love to all!
