Hello,

I am trying to combine the enemy from your pack with my character from Character Interaction pack. When I place an enemy in the game i get this error:
"TPP Character AI - can't get player character".

I understand that the enemy is searching for the default Third Person Kit character (player).

Is there any way to modify the blueprint so that it is searching for my player (it has the player tag). I tried modifying it, but i cannot seem to do it.
I would appreciate the help.

Thanks in advance,
Vlad

Hi, thank you for this great pack.

Is there any way to make the player at the beginning he does not have any weapons then he can pick it up individually instead of having them from the beginning of the game so the player have to search for weapons ?
thank you

[hamsterPL]

Thank you

Well you would have to script it. Add a state for each weapon - have/have not. Based on this hide weapon meshes and unhide whenever you want. You can find logic for that in weapon change graph. I made a simple walkthrough for unarmed state which might help you https://youtu.be/6RveqARxe1Y

well, I'm so beginner on blueprint and I don't know how to do it could you do a tutorial about that ? it is not just hiding the weapon it it about taking it also from the ground and showing the weapon's icon either on top of it when the player see it on the ground, that's going to be so insane for this pack it is going to be like Metal Gear Soled serious.

Thank you very much again

Well to do it like in Metal Gear Solid it is complete new feature which can take some time to create. But I've seen someone made it and shared a repository. Check this out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6vCJQ71-H0

I see. Well I think you can look how elevator is done. There is a button blueprint, which reacts to input. It's a good start. You can scrap animation from it, and do whatever logic you want on "E" input.

How do I update my project with your kit to 4.16?

How do I update my project with your kit to 4.16?

Open your project in 4.16 and choose option to open a copy - this will convert your project to 4.16 version.
Go to vault tab in launcher. Download update for Third Person Shooter Kit (you have to have 4.16 installed). From this update copy files BP_Blueprint_Functions and WB_Fullscreen_Setting_widget to your project for 4.16 version.

I've noticed AI bots makes the game very slow in the demo level. Anybody knows how to fix this? I'm getting under extreme low fps like 5-10 fps during combat if I add like 5-10 bots to a scene, stutters a lot and then comes back to 50-60 fps when it's over. It's unplayable like this.

Hard to say what's the problem. No one reported it before. Editor it self could slow game down. Is it occuring on package build or/and as you play not from editor?

is there some way to adjust the maximum turning angle of the spine?. For human characters it looks a bit exaggerated
