Didn’t tried 4.9.1 yet, but let me thank you by 4.9.

UMG looks a lot more responsive.
A “LOT” from my Log warnings gone away, I just still with a boring one when using CreateDynamicMaterialInstance( ) with some skeletalmeshes dunno if is caused by parentmesh from component having more materials because Cloth or 2Sided Mats. But nothing serious.
Did you changed dynamic shadows? Could be just me, but they looks a lot more defined!
Among others…

Thank you!

Hi all,
it seems that 4.9.1 doesn´t allow loading of animated FBX files?

4.9.1 Works! (pretty much)

I’m trying to update 4.9 to 4.9.1, but it’s saying it wants 15gb for update?
Is this an update or a complete version install?

ayretek · September 20, 2015, 3:11pm

this keeps popping up in 4.9.1
didn’t think nothing of it when created a standard template First Person Shooter but got it again after re-opening project. (no changes were made & didn’t even save it) but project works n plays normal tho’ :eek:

Error /Game/FirstPersonBP/Maps/FirstPersonExampleMap : Failed import for SkeletalMeshComponent /Game/FirstPersonBP/Blueprints/FirstPersonCharacter.FirstPersonCharacter_C:SkeletalMesh_GEN_VARIABLE

““UE-18482 Various engine materials fail to compile due to too many texture coordinate sets in use””

When does this get fixed?

Hi,

This has already been fixed internally. I do not have an exact timeframe of when fix will be implemented but it should make it into a future release.

anonymous_user_d829b65b · September 24, 2015, 1:28pm

Thanks a lot! Looking forward to it in 4.9.2!

we are able to use same material setup we used back in 4.8 without any errors. Thank you!

Epic are being very quiet at moment regarding updates.

I haven’t moved to 4.9 yet as there were initially a reported issue when moving from TADP to its replacement. Is it worth moving to 4.9 or holding out for a 4.10 preview within next couple of weeks?

anonymous_user_fe3662a2 · September 25, 2015, 12:16am

Could you guys tell me what key is used to re-center your view when in VR demo mode? Right now my camera is way off and standard “R” key is not mapped for unreal.

Elvince · September 26, 2015, 1:22pm

Hi,

Could you please confirm that no 4.9.2 is forecasted?
If yes, could you please make sure that this major issue is included:

I’m so surprised that Translucent material in UMG have been seen as a issue during testing. Now, I’m stuck with a UI that is not rendering properly so some important information are not here.

We are a team a 10 person not in same office, compiling from github is not a “option”.

thanks for your help,

Stephen_Ellis · September 28, 2015, 3:42pm

Hi & all,

We are currently preparing a 4.9.2 that we intend to release later this week. It will include a fix for UE-20792 (DrawMaterial() Function not Rendering Translucent Material to HUD), as well as about 20 other fixes for major bugs and crashes. Some of other important fixes included are for issues such as: crashing when undoing in blueprints, child blueprint classes unable to change values for inherited variables, Chinese language users crashing when changing language settings, inability to submit to Apple store for iOS9, and more. Full details will be made available with release of hotfix.

Cheers

Elvince · September 28, 2015, 3:51pm

Thanks for update & support. It’s an excellent news.

anonymous_user_b7d55a8e · September 28, 2015, 8:43pm

Has Morpheus plugin been removed? I no longer see it as a selectable plugin, whereas it was for me in 4.8.3?

UE-21000 is actually same root issue as UE-20952 (Launching a Project which uses Depth of Field crashes to Home Screen on iOS8 device), and fix will be included in 4.9.2 Hotfix.

Your other issue (with Enumerators in Blackboard) was logged as UE-20867 and has already been fixed and released in 4.9.1 Hotfix.

Cheers!
