If you're using 5.4 please follow my updated version of this tutorial, as it addresses some small changes that may make following along with this tutorial somewhat tricky: th-cam.com/video/fBjMk3FDYGI/w-d-xo.html
Nice to see you try on something new and fresh. The finals does have interesting mechanics. Covering the fundamentals would be a great start like replicating fire, movement and the basics :)
I've been doing the FPS tutorials and got as far as the animations for the pistol and realised I want to be able to kick doors and climb buildings and just generally things I need to see the legs for. I'm gonna take what I've done so far as a learning curve (and I've learned a LOT from those first 8 episodes) so hopefully this is gonna be the one I need to follow. Can't wait!
@@PitchforkAcademy I would honestly be so grateful if you could incorporate that. Do you have a discord or a way of getting in touch? I'd love to show you what I made with the metahuman tutorials
@@PitchforkAcademy Soooo...I actually done it 😮 and I never even had to open Blender. You've taught me enough to just try shit and see what sticks and I can now kick open my doors and you can see it. It's gonna look ridiculous in multiplayer but it is what it is.
I've been using UE5 for only 4 days but your tutorials are exactly what I'm looking for. Although half of the time it's as if I'm listening to Chinese while trying to decipher the EventGraph like in the movie Arrival. but in version 5.4 I've encountered 2 obstacles: - In references I have no boolian 'has rifle' - the BP_Weapon_component is different where I can't find 'is locally controlled" Any help is appreciated! Keep up with the tutorials!
Love this video, unlike some youtubers I saw, you explain better, have patience and the results are as expected. I only don`t understand how do you branch in 20:25 ... how to add that point over the blue line.
Yo bro, this tuto was awesome, it helped me a lot and learned a lot too. I have 2 problems and watching it again I saw that you didn't checked. My first problem is that only the player on the server can make headshots, the other ones only can hit the body, idk why. And the other problems is when the player on the client holds right click and sidesteps it clips, like, it get bugged and it doesn't slow at all. But really thank you so much for this tutorial.
So I checked again, my problem is that the clients can't deal damage to the head of the server player, but they can deal head damage to each other, idk what is the problem tho :(
how or where you get the abp_manny fps arms? I have still the arms from the ue4 mannequin... when i download the animation starter pack from unreal marketplace, i could not choose the proper last version... :(
Hi i am have trouble on the animation sequencer were you are adjusting the rife in the UE5_Idle_Rifle_Iornsigthing the Gun will not show up but I know its there because in the Skelton tree it is a child of the hand_Rsoket. The gun still shows up in the SK_Mannequin and the SKM_Manny_Simple hopefully you can help me on these issues thanks
Wouldn't it be more convenient to use pre-made Control Rig for Mannequins to create the animation assets? And wouldn't "Control Rotation" node give you the same result without additional math logic on top?
We will be creating animations with control rig in a future episode. No, control rotation gives you essentially the same output as base aim rotation, the key difference being that base aim rotation is, by default, replicated, so using control rotation requires extra steps.
I was able to successfully link the bullets! However,When I use metahuman for "TP_Body", only the face is not displayed.(I am Japanese, so my English may be wrong.)
can i ask the benefits of using the fps template rather than just using the third person so you already have a mesh visible to other players? Edit-I see now the weapon blueprints and things
This allows us to more easily control what the player sees, and gives you a more fluid movement as the camera can swivel. It's also easier to replicate, which is why almost every multiplayer shooter ever made has been done this way...
@@PitchforkAcademy cool I am new to all of this and usually see people using the tps blueprint. good stuff. I have an issue now though. I opened up 5.3.2 and i get this error: "The following modules are missing or built with a different engine version: "Breach" (My Game) Would you like to rebuild them now?"
Great tutorial. Just wondering what is the benifiet of doing it this way with two separate meshes as appose to the true fps that you have done in the past?
It gives you more control over what the player sees and reduces jittering in the arms because they are parented to the camera and their rotation doesn't need to be replicated. 🙂
I'm also struggling with the Boolean. I've done the tutorial almost 5 times, and followed exactly and I still cant get that Boolean to appear under variables. Is this something that's been changed on an UE update?
so i am having an issue, i have done everything you did the only thing i had to do differently is add my own HasRifle Variable because it wasnt already in there. And now when i put everything together it dont do any of the animations or anything. Nothing works with changing the animations based on when i have the rifle in my hand. i dont know what to do can someone help plz lol
Im using UE5.4 and getting a problem after 20min. My Character doesn't go into Idle_Rifle_Ironsight animation (nor other animations if I change it). I adding a Print Text to see if the Has Rifle Boolean works and it does. I don't think I missed a step, could it be a problem related to the new 5.4 version?
yo i have an issue for some reason i cant seem to connect the character reference to the get rifle Boolean. 15:46 i followed along pretty carefully. but I'm also on 5.4 can anyone help ?
@@PitchforkAcademy i can put the variables in respectively but I cant connect them. and I have to tick off context sensitive tab snipboard.io/Iz6h4G.jpg but I cant connect them
@@PitchforkAcademy I can seemingly put in the 2 variables by themselves but i cant connect them and i have to turn off context sensitivity snipboard.io/Iz6h4G.jpg

I'm not feeling very well at the moment. Hopefully in the next 7 days...
Ive Got everything working... except at the end when you showed us how to make the gun move up and down my characters body snapped... do you know why?
No idea. Did you go through that section of the video again?
when you connect the link in the subtract (set pitch Rotation) node its at the bottom pin not the top . and 360 must still be entered at the top .
If i Subscribe on pterion can get the animation you make ?
No they'll go in my own game...
Hmm I have everything the same but when Iook down or up it only looks up on the 2nd player screen. In first person it works correctly, any ideas?
You definitely don't have everything the same. You just need to go back and find what you missed...
@@PitchforkAcademy Idk I put -5 in divide before the Set Pitch Rotation Down and it works how it was supposed to

make sure when you connect the link in the subtract node its at the bottom pin nit the top had the same problem
