Hey I purchased this and I'm having trouble.

My game doesn't require the character to move at all. I just need inputs to rotate the camera left and right, up and down. How do I do that

It sounds like you need to change your Character BP. Either use your own, or go to the included SampleCharacterBP and remove all Input Events in the Event Graph that you don't need. If all you want is turning your camera, your Character BP Event Graph should look similiar to the attached screenshot. The Input Events that handle your camera rotation are InputAxis Turn and InputAxis LookUp.

How would I add my own scenes to the graphics menus

You can simply switch out the image that is used on the individual OptionsPickers, select one of them in the hierachy and edit the Option Image Array and the Option Image. You can follow Unreal's guide to make screenshots of your game while in engine: https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/...ots/index.html

Hello, @HolyG!

I´ve downloaded the demo to try the product and everything works, except the "Save" functionality in Pause Menu.
When I click the Save button, it does not reproduce any message and doesn´t save the location of the character or anything.
Because when I click the "Load" button it comes back to the beggining of the level, not the place I´ve saved before.
Can you correct it or I am loosing something?
Thank you and Best Regards

The Save & Load functionality makes use of the default Unreal Engine Save System. You will need to look into the following docs to get more info on that: https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/...ame/index.html. Just as a tip, you will want to save the actor location of your player on save and after the level loaded, move the player character to the saved location.

Hey,

I've implemented a lot of your menus so far, but I'm getting caught up trying to do one thing. In the lobby menu, when the map is changed (by the host -- listen server), I want the connected clients to see the active map selected too. We're using an Options Picker with the Selected Option Image. Only the server (isServer) can change the options picker.

Do you have any examples of how this should be implemented for multiplayer?

I've tried a number of different ways and many hours, but I haven't been able to get it synced for the connected players. I included screenshots below of my latest attempt, but I've been through MANY other iterations with no success.

Any help you can provide is appreciated and I'm looking forward to hopefully getting this working.

As tradition, I was able to get it working shortly after posting on the forum for assistance.

I made use of the Set Active Option with the Set Current Index nodes and was able to get the client's updated with the host selection.
