I’ve found the issue. I don’t know if this was related to a different editor version or what, but the thing is (and in the video is not mentioned) you have to uncheck The Use Controller Rotation Yaw located in the BP_Bot (Self) component. In other words, uncheck the option in the Character. Hope this will help others!!
Good you found it by yourself! I made the mistake to make the change but havnt it on video. Really annoying and I am so sorry it‘s causing trouble. I added the node on it in the article below the video. Maybe I should mention it before so people don’t miss it.
Hi, great tutorial, thanks! Why is your PressurePlate_Platform white even though you are using the pink plastic material? Did you make additional changes to it?
Because my platform is just completely pink, even though I set vertex color import setting to “Replace”.
Mh. Hard to say from what you wrote. Tried reimporting? In the static mesh editor you should be able to switch to vertex color mode to see what color it has after import.
Thanks for your reply! What I am referring to is this:
Your scene has a pink frame and a white platform. Both appear to use the same material M_Plastic. In the video we made M_Plastic a pink material, but yours appears to be white on the property box. I tried changing mine to white but then the frame also becomes white. So I am wondering how did you achieve two different colors on frame and platform using the same material.
I did try to reimport the models with vertex colors set to replace but that didn’t change anything. I am not even sure its related.

Thanks in advance
Thank you for this! I was confused when the author started talking about bringing in content. I was wondering where he was accessing the content
Can you make a screenshot of the material and can you open the platform mesh itself and switch in the static mesh editor to vertex color to see what color the mesh has?
So here is my 1 thing that is bugging me. i followed along the video (but man its fast haha) and i get to the crate and adding all the textures. i have watched it about 10 times and made sure all the setup are the same however my crate looks different as the video has 2 darker tones in the middle wile mine doesn’t. even when i did Show>Vert Colors, like in the video the corners didn’t show black. i couldn’t find anything that is wrong. here is my box
Did you check the vertex color settings when importing? It might be you have to switch to “Replace” so it imports the vertex color from the mesh and doesnt stomp it with a white.
You can fix it by going to the import settings in the mesh, make the change and then Reimport.
That was what was missing! Thank you for the help.
Hi, thanks for taking the time!
The plastic material is just pink, really. I briefly skipped through the whole video to make sure I did not miss any part where you make additional changes to the M_Plastic material, and couldn’t find any. So maybe that happened off screen?
The platform appears to have no vertex colors:
Thanks in advance!
This is the tutorial that finally made UE click for me. Incredibly dense (took me a week to get thru 80 mins of video), but I now understand the overall workflow for game development, and picked up a few practical tips as well.
Thank you Andreas!
Ah ok. You here setting the color fix to this ping. The vertex color is not here as a input. You should extend it. I made this:
It’s maybe not best practice but here I use an if to see if the vertex color is under a certain threshold (0.001) and switch between the pink and white.
Thanks, now its working as expected. I appreciate you took the time and I hope it was not my own fault missing those steps in the video! Again, great tutorial, looking forward for more
So almost done the video! its been pretty decent, has a few things i think should be touched up but good job over all. Last issue here. when i stop it is still kicking up the Dust we created, in the video it doesn’t keep going while idle but for me it does. i redid it all and watched video 5 more times for that part. The Sound does stop but the dust keeps going… and going… and going lol
