UDK Spaceship Movement Help!

anonymous_user_0ebdf763 · July 24, 2014, 2:33pm

Hello Guys!

Im actually trying to make a spaceship work. I already got the movement and controls working, but I want to make the Spaceship turn when pressing A and D.
This means that I have to use local coordinates for W and S. But how can I do this?
I set all the programming up in Kismet. So how can I use local coordinates in Kismet?

PS:
I have a 2nd problem. When I place my Spaceship, I dont see the Textures. But when I go near and shoot at it with the Standard UTDeathmatch Weapon, the Bullet gives a short light spark and i can see that the Textures are on the ship.
I already set a Light Source nearby.

Could you probably post your question into the udk forum https://forums.epicgames/forums/366-UDK This forum is just for UE4 stuff

2nd problem:
When the spaceship is also dark, you will have to create a 2nd uv channel + lightmap

Thanks for your answer. I will post it at the Forum you told me.

Can you explain me how to set up a 2nd uv channel + lightmap?

Thank you very much. I will try around with that.

I played aound with it yet and realised that this problem is only at Blank Maps. When I use the Afternoon Map or something like this, I can clearly see the textures. So what should i do now?

add a skylight
add a dominant directional light
build your light
post a link to your UDK thread and I will help you there (make sure to post a picture of your material)

I cant find the button to make a new thread at the other Forum.
The Material is a simple Constant3Vector Color connected to the “Diffuse”
It worked now when I added a dominant directional light instead of the light point.
How to create a skylight?

you have to wait until your account gets activated by an admin/mod/system
go into the actor classes -> type “sky” into the search bar

OK. Thank you for everything! We will resume at the other Forum. I will edit the Link when I can open the thread.
