> [@Kiliangg;422386](#): > > sure ill upload it Kiliang, try to finish all the tutorial before testing for errors… I know it’s bad programming practice but make an exclusion for now since arboba fixes those issues later on, at leasts that’s how it worked out for me. (in his website though) & Arboba it was the map, THANK YOU for bringing that up, I removed the map and the game cocked and was packaged with no errors. My guess is that I used something from the landscape tools that messed it up. ---

> [@Kiliangg;422386](#): > > sure ill upload it First thing i found was in your defined\_modes array you had L\_Survival listed as the game mode, instead of SM, so it was passing the wrong thing. the other mode was right (used the short name you made in the config file)… I have looked a little but am baffled. I made a new map, named it test, added it to the defined maps array and selected that and it worked fine, went right into map, main menu did not come back up… so I am confused a bit. Have to go to gym, but will look at more later. ---

For the video widget stuff, there was something strange with your widget switcher. I deleted it as I could not resize it. I added a new one and renamed it WidgetSwitcher\_0 like your old one… then picked MM\_S\_Video from the User Created in the Palette and pulled it into the switcher. So that part works: ![x01.png](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/3X/c/9/c9e6ea67bf2dff31ef178c68e21fafe1f573696b.png) ---

[HOLD ON A SECOND BATMAN…] TUTORIAL arbopa what specifically did you do for the function “setGameOptions” inside the base\_Gamemode? I don’t have none of this variables Mode name, Map Name, nor Server name on the game state but they are on the game instance. Did you create all this variables inside the base game mode and forgot to mention that in the tutorial? Also where are those Map name, max players and max score coming from? Im talking about this specifically: [http://i1.wp.com/www.acclivitygamestudios.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/setgameoptions103.png](http://i1.wp.com/www.acclivitygamestudios.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/setgameoptions103.png) ---

Was working on more stuff, and realized some of the timer stuff wasn’t replicating properly on client. After a lot of fiddling, I realized I had stuff in the Game Mode that I was referencing… well the game mode doesn’t exist on clients, so any cast to it would fail. So I am buried in redoing a lot of stuff. ARGH! I think when I am done I am just going to work on merging all the fixes and get it all flowing properly, rather than move forward… will delay the next steps, but I think it’s necessary to prevent problems people might run into. Sorry… should have thought it out a bit better. Will get there, will just take a bit longer. ---

Well, I am only 46 pages into the document. That’s the hosting menu. So not far. But this stuff is the time consuming stuff. Plus I find I am replacing pictures left and right and adding new little bits. Like I just finished adding in the needed stuff so when you select a mode, you can only select maps that support that mode. Which I said in the tutorial I’d get back to, but forgot about until I went through it. Am also building the new one in 4.10 to make sure that is all good as well. If you have the desire to figure it out, here is a key part of the ‘only list maps that support the selected mode’ stuff… will be a while until I am caught up and have everything much smoother. ![resetmapspermode1.png](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/5/2/d/52d831cbd78368e1ce1a12c1d9a6578c57ab03c3.png) [Previous page](https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/yet-another-fps-blueprint-tutorial/42234.md?page=14) [Next page](https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/yet-another-fps-blueprint-tutorial/42234.md?page=16)
