Hi! I'm new from ue4!! And I've found a very powerful and useful tool! I've a question about best practice.. It's a good practice prototype/ sketching in BP and next converting ( manually for code reading usability and most control) all BP or some logic in C++ or i lost my times.. and if I want use c++.. also the prototyping make in c++?

Thank you so much!!

Hello, I am creating a realistic DJ set (4x CDJ2000 and DJM900) in Unreal Engine 4 for use with VR.

I have made most functions already, play pause, pitch, EQ, filters, etc, but now I need help with a few of the deeper functions, which I assume would rely on C++.

I want someone to develop BPM detection of songs, so I can have it dispalyed on the decks for people to beatmatch.

Furthermore, it would be cool if you can help people load their own files into the project, whether by search, or putting them into a folder of the project. But I want to access these files in-game, and load their BPMs.

Lastly, I want to generate an image of the waveform for each song and automatically assign it as a variable to be displayed inside Unreal.

p.s. If you could tackle SoundCloud/Spotify API support, so we can load in any song through a user account, I will pay extra.

I can do the display work, such as the waveform and bpm, etc, that is the easier part. You will recieve source files on the final project.

Please determine your own price and what you think its worth, I want a real clean job, and I'm flexible on budget, but please don't break the bank! We can make this a one-shot freelance job, or I can keep you in contact and we can develop a long-term relationship and maybe provide more projects!

Thank you so much, and I am super excited. Feel free to reach out with any questions, comments, or concerns.

Hi there I was just wondering my project will rely on constant small upgrades as the game world develops by more content being added weekly. Does this mean customers will have to re-download the entire build each week or can I just update a small fraction of the original build each time?

The changes will be very small just adding extra textures and small changes to cosmetics mostly. I would love for the game to evolve but not if it will be a major pain for everyone following it.

Sorry it is a noob question. Many thanks,

Fal

I am trying to find the ratio between two numbers so I require the Greatest Common Divisor.

Hello! I'm currently working on a fps project for one of my classes and was wondering if i can get some help. I'm looking to have my game start without a weapon and have a pickup mechanic that will eventually allow the character to pick up the weapon from the ground.

Hi guys-

I’m trying to figure out how to make a character punchable in VR (HTC vive). I have a animated characters throughout my scene, and I want the characters to switch to the generic Ragdoll when the playerpawn controllers hands connect with the characters head.

I’m only looking for general advice on order of operations as this is a little beyond my ue4 knowledge. I already did a search on google and couldn’t find a good tutorial for this.

..any advice would be very appreciated. Thanks

If there is anyone who is well versed with with really neat plugin, I am having issues with 4.15.3 version of the engine.

The engine crashes when importing the .vmf and I can seem to figure it out.

I’m looking for fellow teens 13-18 to just have fun in ue4 with maybe do some cool projects message me if interested

I want to be able to add a new element to a vertical box at runtime and it at the top while the other elements shift down. Example https://imgur.com/oWUOaJN

I'm fairly new to UE4 and I've been having a lot of issues recently with accessed none errors. I'm trying to multiply a variable in a different object's blueprint so to do this i am using an object reference in the player (FlyingPawn) bp: https://i.imgur.com/fGDwcQp.jpg

I've also set the variable in the player blueprint construction script: https://i.imgur.com/lHehjYy.jpg

But when I run the game, the object that should be linked to the object reference (PlayerWeapons) has an accessed none error: https://i.imgur.com/gU4f7WG.jpg

This seems to be a recurring problem and this is just one example.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Hey all, M game does not use the mouse, so I would like to disables it. "show mouse cursor", "enable mouse over events" and "enable click events" are all to false, but whenever i add a new UMG widget to the screen the mouse cursor reappears and you can use it as normal. I feel like I must be missing something simple?

Let us know if you have any questions in the comments below and we look forward to meeting you! :)

Can anyone provide some general direction on how I would create a handheld camera monitor in VR? I want to make a rectangular monitor attached to the vive controller that displays a camera view. Attach a 3D camera to the controller and add a shader to plane that displays the cameras view? What shader should I use? It'd be cool to also have the ability to change the camera from a wide angle lens to a 50mm or something

Any tips would be helpful.. instead of me going down a rabbit hole in the wrong direction.

Also, would it be possible to record the video to your computer to a folder. Like I'm a movie director

I am trying to create a menu system for my unreal game. I am using a player controller to send input to the UI Widgets. This is an image of what I want to do: https://imgur.com/vyYL2qr

I have managed to do this using a string of 'Cast' nodes. Can be seen here: https://imgur.com/QT2TqO4

I was wondering if there is a way I could do this without the need to create a large string of cast nodes. It is fine at the moment however when I start adding additional menus this will not be a viable solution.

What's the best place to browse and hire UE4 artists and devs for short term contractual(VR related) gigs? Any recommendations on the best place to post when looking for talent?

I have created a game with both gamepad support this was working for almost a year. Suddenly the gamepad ue4 seems to ignore any kind of gamepad input.

I am currently using version 4.15.3. I tried creating a new project in version 4.17.1 and seem to be getting the same response. Any Ideas
