Buying this piece of **** was my biggest mistake…50$ down the drain.

I can help you out if you haven’t found a solution yet.

So it seems development of this module has pretty well ceased, and the tutorial on melee weapons link no longer works. So I’ll just throw this out here and see what you guys think.

After rigging and importing my custom melee weapons and adding the proper nodes, I can only get them to properly ‘pick up’ if duplicating and renaming one of the authors existing melee weapon BP’s and changing the skeletal mesh. If I try to create a BP from scratch using the MeleeWeapon parent class, I just can’t get it to work even though I have (as well as I can tell) matched every single setting. Any thoughts?
Also to get proper orientation/have it pickup at the right spot, I have to physically move the model in blender and reimport. Not sure if that’s common or not, but I would have figured I could just rotate in UE4 in either the skeletal or mesh editors but that doesn’t seem to work.

Lastly, I’m still trying to figure out how to modify the hitbox to be properly sized/positioned, and my weapons don’t seem to be doing damage. I’ll update if I figure these parts out.

Also I’m going to be messing around with ‘gutting’ all of the other weapon mechanics (guns and such) while trying to leave in wand (for magic) and bows. Gonna try and trim it down, modify the movement systems and inventory systems, and make it more of a lean module fitting for a melee/medieval/fantasy theme a bit better. This will probably take weeks/months, and while I can’t/won’t for obvious reasons upload the end result, I can try to document any successful steps I take along the way so other users can follow if they want.

I already did this, I can help you.

I am sorry but does anyone that owns this pack have any problems because I know my way around Unreal but this pack is really broken at the moment (for some odd reason the demo maps are fine but anything I create isn’t). My belt area is way too low, as is the knife that is supposed to be on my chest. It would be really nice if the creator can comment on what the issue could be.

Can someone that owns this pack please create a new project using the 4.20.3 version and create a new level using the bp_survivalmode game mode? Please let me know if it works for you correctly, meaning the knife and belt area are at the correct height for the player. Thank you anyone that can help me with this

I can help you out with a better set up as well.
