3D, First person (easy change to third person).
Sub for more :)

[@stuff62720]

Hay I know you posted this 2 months ago but I’m having a bit of trouble because when I add the script as a component it doesn’t add the character controller and the script shows but has no variables like “Camera” and “walk speed” it only has the name of the script.

Sorry for the super late reply - Make sure the name of the script is the exact same as the one I used in the video. That could be the issue.

[@Redblocks_14]

Everything worked fine except the fact that My character decided just not to obey the laws of physics and follow through the ground so

[@kunal-ko]

Add a rigidbody component to it. Should work fine

If your player is falling then click the player folder and a green line will show up. Click the capsule and move it up to the green line and it should work!

ur such a W bro, ive been looking for wasd controls since like, january, and this one finally worked, and i didnt expect it to only take 2 minutes, (i know it wouldve taken way longer if you didnt just let us copy the code, and instead walked us through the code like others)

[@beefytime1374]

Easiest and fastest fps view game controller thankyou so much.

[@allentothemax1223]

thats why i love ctrl c and v

[@VkStudio_]

not only did this man make a 2 min tutorial straight to the point, but even put the script in the comments. Absolute chad. Keep up the great work. However im having a small problem. When i change the values of the Run speed & walk speed and then start the game the run speed resets to 12 and the walk speed resets to 6. How can i fix this?

[@fritzwulf]

Did you make sure that you edited the values with the play button unselected? If you change anything while in play mode (even if you also have it paused) it will reset.

[@eklerka25-official]

Edit the code on lines 67 and 68. It says that if you are not crouching or sprinting, it will set these values ​​to 6 and 12

[@Brogrammer1]

Sorry for the late reply, instead of through unity, try changing the values through the actual script. Just look for where I have the walk and run speed set and change the values there. You can use control f to search for keywords.

Thanks for being efficient, but honestly you could use slowing down and explaining a little bit, you literally just skip through coloring the blocks and how you do it in less than 2 seconds while you explain something unrelated
That's problematic for a tutorial when you have to slow down to quarter speed and still have to guess work what fucking key combo you use
