Yet another FPS blueprint tutorial

@arbopa;399186

I finally had a very limited amount of time to start adding more… also cleared out some things from my build and archived it up and threw it on dropbox, as some were requesting the project to compare to theirs. Its > 330 megs, not sure what stuff I need to NOT archive up… if anyone knows let me know I’ll re-do it smaller.

sweet , so later on in this tutorial you will delete the online subsystem=null and add.

Any plans on a tutorial on how to keep track of scores and such? Determine who wins and how to save that data on an online database?

Everything work, now i can host and join, finding servers. Actually i implementented UE mannequin with animations to test if everything work correctly and:
-if i launch the game by the game map, the player work correctly;

-if i launch the game by the Main Menu, when i spawn in the new map, my mouse is locked

(this happen only for host, not for client)

Ok i built it and and host people work correctly…but don’t found inside the wiki, the Refresh Button code in Join widget.

[Fabry911]

I created a little solution for refresh button:

• in game instance BP, show join event, i created a second event http://prntscr.com/8re2ix

• in widget BP, onclicked button refresh http://prntscr.com/8re2vc

it work, but replicate results; it find server, clicking refresh, it found it again. http://prntscr.com/8re3s9

yeh but its a good way to check and make sure everything else is working ok. If that fixes it I was going to give you the line of script that will fix your problem plus enable online system.

using this:

[/Script/Engine.GameEngine] 
!NetDriverDefinitions=ClearArray 
+NetDriverDefinitions=(DefName="GameNetDriver",DriverClassName="/Script/OnlineSubsystemSteam.SteamNetDriver",DriverClassNameFallback="/Script/OnlineSubsystemUtils.IpNetDriver") 

[OnlineSubsystem] 
DefaultPlatformService=Steam 
PollingIntervalInMs=20 

[OnlineSubsystemSteam] 
bEnabled=true 
SteamDevAppId=480 
GameServerQueryPort=27015 
bRelaunchInSteam=false 
GameVersion=1.0.0.0 
bVACEnabled=1 
bAllowP2PPacketRelay=true 
P2PConnectionTimeout=90 

[/Script/OnlineSubsystemSteam.SteamNetDriver] 
NetConnectionClassName="/Script/OnlineSubsystemSteam.SteamNetConnection" 

inside file /Config/DefaultEngine.ini, i made the pack for windows and tested with friends. everything work, there is just a bug about severs information showed in join widget. in editor i can find the match and give me righ information like “1/4 players” or “44 ping”; after package for all people who found the match, informations always were “0/4 players” and “9999 ping”

[MountainDew]

I havnt got that far but it sounds like a replication problem to me.

When I get to that point, yes.

I use a few nodes that set the input to UI only, make sure when you are loading up a map to play you set it to game.

Not sure what your issue with the refresh button was, I am pretty sure I put the code in the tutorial and I know it works.

@arbopa , man your the best, just checking the project now . to answer your question on the zip size - check the “Intermediate” folders of the plug-ins there’s a large file in both which ends in .pch] not sure if they are needed but both show around 600mb in size, i sent Rama a pm so maybe he can enlighten us on that.

I figured someone would know how to cut it down it size. I kinda feel like a slacker cause life is sucking away all my time so I haven’t had much time to move forward on this. Hopefully today and tomorrow I will get some more cranked out.

[Geodav]

i might not be the creative type but quite good at knit-picking your doing a great job, learning loads from your stuff .

[HQScanline]

will you continue doing this?

[arbopa]

@OnlyHorrorOnlyHardcore;401736

will you continue doing this?

Yes, as time permits.

[MountainDew]

I made it to the Audio Settings

Oh man, I gotta pick up the pace. I just finished the stuff for toggle settings… need to keep moving before you catch up.

[arbopa]

Apparently the link to the project on dropbox has been ‘banned’ due to an ‘excessive level of traffic’… ugh. I am working on making it smaller, and will put it elsewhere, guess I will close up my dropbox account, it’s worthless if you can’t share stuff with it.

[MountainDew]

Thats crazy they banned that. I know I DLed it a few days ago no problem. 330 megs is normal for swapping out projects as far as I know.

Haha yeh right ,you are kicking butt really. I have no idea how many hours I got in this and Im not plowing the way. I cant imagine how many hours you have in this.
