For anybody trying to figure out how to get camera pitch to not affect movement speed...
In your Movement blueprint section:
After "Get Control Rotation", create a "Break Rotator" and connect Return Value to Rotation.
Then create a "Make Rotator" and connect Z(Yaw) to Z(Yaw).
Then connect the "Make Rotator" Return Value to the "Get Forward Vector" and "Get Right Vector" nodes you created earlier (In Rot).
thanks
Thank you so much.
Thank you!! This was driving me crazy
tks
Just finished this tutorial! Thank you SO much for putting this together. This was super easy to follow along with.
Hey bro, just wanted to say thank you for the tutorial. I have never used Unreal before and you really helped me to understand and feel more comfortable with the game engine. You a real one bro
Very good tutorial. Importing the assets does "break" the game if you are trying to package it for exporting but that is a little out of the intended scope of this tutorial. It helped me a lot with learning unreal. Primarily with this tutorial and a few other 5 min tutorials, i was able to make a game (just a personal project) fully packaged and playable not within the unreal editor. Unf great teachers.
This tutorial is very helpful and easy to follow. You've restored my hope in Unreal, I appreciate it
Simply amazing tutorial. Gonna start this asap!
Yessss!!!! Thoughtful direction making this game real saucy!
Thanks bro, i tried to watch multiples videos to learn, and this was the best to start, thank you !
Glad it helped!
Hey, I’m new and you have helped me a lot so far. Thank you and I have subscribed to support you!
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you! The tutorial is perfect!
I completed the tutorial, MANY useful tips! Thank you so much 👍❤
Happy to hear that!
WOW. Tomorrow is holiday , gotta need to spend time on this. thank you.
Hope you enjoy!
Thanks UNF Games!
Finished this tutorial! Thanks u so much UNF
welcome!
Ready! Thanks for this
welcome! thank to you for tuning in!
Hello, great video! Thanks!
This is insane content! Sadly im super bad at learning ue5 so i will look over all your videos again. Thank you so much
Happy you found value in our content! Haven fun! We have a lot of tuts to help you here 😁
@@unfgames yeah! Love it. Patience is my friend 🤣
These tutorials are gold.. you explain things so well compared to others.
Happy you appreciate it!
Looking for ways to get started, this video helped a lot 🙂 Thanks!
We love to hear that!
@@unfgames how do I lock the capsule with the character while jumping?
Appreciated! Very informative. 👍
I think Steam is going to have a flood of these 😉
Thanks Bro, very informative.
Glad it was helpful!
Lone wolf here as usual love your video now i can learn blue print even more efficiently thank you so much my friend always make most entertaining video thank you so much for your kind information my friend 🤠
Glad to hear it!
many thanks... really appreciate it..
You're welcome!
I'm having trouble getting my lighting to match yours filled in all the same values but still extremely dark. Do i need to change a setting to enable lumen or some global setting i might not have correctly set? clouds appear more red then blue like your level.
Amazing, just amazing!, We can now start the adventure of creating video games, from the mechanics to the creation of a basic level.
It would be great to know how the AI is used as in platform games there are some enemies to defeat or when they are defeated they can drop the key etc.
My level is more parkour, with a lot of jumps, and I have added extra functionality to the coins, like moving up and down and turning at the same time 😂.
Thank you for this tutorial!!
Yes, AI is something that we will cover eventually because is a super interesting topic.
Glad you liked the tutorial!
in gate blue print funtionality i did exactly as u but my character intracts and hide the blue rays before even picking the key can u help
Hi there!
This beginner's tutorial is great so far!
But I ran into a problem
In 37:46 , I don't have the same mesh as you. What I have is two separated objects , so I grouped them.
This is not the main problem. The problem is that when I hit play in 38:40 , my character goes through the landscape.
Can you please help me with this problem?
Thank you.
this is great tutorial thannk u very much sir i want to ask u one thing that if we want our character to be i n this how will that be we have to choose this charcter for making ? can we use our mesh or character in this
If I become a good game developer I will definitely donate you and I will promote you also because you have best explaination skills which is really really comfortable for new developers and I will say to my fans that you are the only teacher I learned game development from ;) be safe ✌️
Thank you ❤
thank you!
About the dynamic material part(Blue/Red gates part): AFAIK better approach to create dynamic materials instances is in "Construction Script" of a blueprint.
Which is also shown in "Content Examples" showcase by EpicGames from market place (e.g. Blueprint_Overview map, #1.2 demo display OR find BP_Variables).
Also there you can set variables so they will be seen on scene whenever you place/modify it, which saves you from creating another material to visually distinct your objects
All in all great tutorial, thanks
Im curious, in your own code, did you also accidentally add the bug where if you look downwards, you turn your vector forward down, and you stop walking? im confused if this is also the case case for you. if so, im calm. if not, i have no clue what you did that will make the outcome different :P
Ow! Excelent!
Can any one help please? I changed the Master Material of the grass without realising the flowers and tufts of grass use it also, now I don't know how to return them to their previous colours. Can any one help please?
A tutorial for the enhanced input action in the 5.1 to take the same result?
oh btw if i choose unreal engine 5.3 then will all things works ?
I think this tutorial is great on one hand, but the constant 'oh but if we die it gets destroyed' part i really don't get and is quite frustrating. I don't see the point in not placing it where it needs to go but still learned a lot from this so thank you anyway.
Me ayudaste a salir con un trabajo de tres dias para un videojuego que saldrá en una serie de televisión! Gracias!
de nada!
Rolalooooo
can u please tell ater making game how we can publish it ? if we completed all steps u have mentioned here anyone who made and publish it help me please?
Haven't finished yet but by the chapters is seems all we need is a main menu, save feature and a level load(or reset for new game)!
Agreed!
@@unfgames Technically the checkpoint could be used as the save game then right? If so then hoe to go about resetting values for new game?
Question: could I get a link to the deep dive tutorial that you mention on the animating our characters.
This is the tutorial. Animation Blueprint For Beginners Unreal Engine 5 Tutorial | Learn to Create a Playable Character
czcams.com/video/_oSQq7pKJtk/video.html
Is every video in your course tutorials with English subtitle? Sorry, my english is at beginner level.
Question... as a beginner should I dive into UE5 or learn UE4 first? I know the changes are more cosmetic with some new things but I want to be sure.
Go for UE5 😀
I'm opting for UE5. so far so good
May God shower His blessing on you and your family.
Can u show how to change input from pc to mobile android/ios
Thank you so much for this tutorial, mate.
One question though: How do I have the coin counter reset back to 0 and have the coins reappear every time I fall?
Quick way: Just reload the level
Other way: When you pick up a coin, instead of destroying it, you would need to hide the mesh and remove the collision. Then, all the coins should be listening to an event dispatcher to know when the player falls, or when the player falls you could get all actors of the coin class and then run an event to make them reappear (and don’t forget to enable the collision of the overlap sphere so you can pick up them again).
Fogging LOVE MHW!
Can i upload any Character?
Hum 👍 classic man
😁
Hi @unfgames how do you import the assets from hour of code so that you can still package your game once it is finished. I tried to package my game after finishing the tutorial and it failed due to multiple errors. I have tried to solve the errors but it always breaks in the import process. Is there any way to work around this?
For anyone struggling with this issue, I found a solution to package the game. Before copying the assets and contents from 'Hour of Code' by directly 'dragging and dropping' them into your project folder, what you can do is launch the 'Unreal Learning Kit' instead of the 'Unreal Hour of Code' (It has the same assets) but instead of copying the contents over by dragging and dropping them into your project folder, you must instead, create a default Unreal Learning Kit project (from the marketplace) and then once in the unreal game engine, migrate the assets from the learning kit project to your own project using the Migrate option that is found when you right click on the "Contents" folder in the Unreal Learning Kit project. Hope this helps anyone struggling with the same issue I had.
Thank you i was getting errors and when i saw many of them were coming from hour of code i knew it had to do with copying unused and incomplete things.

Great tip! It's something that you'll see us using in newer tutorials
can you please make a tutorial on turn based game
Hi ! great tutorial btw, I'm currently in gate blueprint functionality but I have a problem, I did the same as you did in the blueprints but when I play the game it opens the gate without me getting the key, how do I fix this? thanks
Make sure that the default value of the Boolean is False
@@unfgamesyes but there is no boolean variable in the gate blueprint, nor in the part of the video, i rewatched it 6 times. if its not a hassle can you be more specific on where do i go to?
Sorry I forgot I used gameplay tags for that. In 1:53:45 I set up the actual key you need for the gate to activate. If this is blank I believe the door will open without a key
@@unfgamesyes but the problem was from the gate blueprint functionality 1:46:29
after you did the blueprint, you have to pickup key to enter the gate but i did the same and it didn’t work…
Hi! First, thanks a lot for this tutorial! I'm really enjoying it!!
Now, I'm having an issue with the "Refine the movement inputs" part. After I check the box Orient Rotation to Movement, when I run it, each time I press A or S, the character barely rotates like 10° instead of 90° as shown in the video. Something I'm missing? I saw a warning about Axis and Action mapping being deprecated. Dunno if that's related though. Thank you for reading me! =D
If it’s still rotating then it means it’s working. You can tweak the rotation value in the character movement component, it’s under rotation rate.
@@unfgames Solved it! I rewatched the section from the beginning. I was missing one step x) I didn't uncheck Use Controller Rotation Yaw. And thus I was getting that strange behavior. Like if the character wanted to turn with the keys but also follow the camera direction. I'm also playing with those rotation rate values too. This is so much fun but can certainly get confusing sometimes (at least for beginners like me XD) Thanks again!
when i add the animation blend space it doest work....
2:13:50
Can't get RespawnPoint from Cast to Main Char. Says "BP_Mainchar Object reference is not compatible with game mode"
Check the code again because we’re casting the get game mode node, not the other Actor node
@@unfgames Thanks. Missed this
oddly enough my character spawns diagonally to the world grid so instead of facing N,S,E,W its facing like NorthWest, how do I fix this?
Make sure that player start isn’t rotated
Hello,
Does anyone know, why my animations are as Sequence player and not Blendspace player, when i'm tryin to make BP for animations please?
The blend space is an asset you need to create (right click on the content drawer Animation -> Blendspace )
After that you can drag the animations inside it, and in the anim BP you can drag the blendspace inside the Anim Graph
@@unfgames Took me a while to figure it out. But thanks a lot for the help :)
hello when i try jumping the CollisionCylinder dosent move with the animation and makes my character get stuck
Are you using a character blueprint or a pawn blueprint ?
You can also ask for support in our discord channel, it’ll be easier to share screenshots there
Have you created platformer tutorial course ?
this is the only one we have created
Thumbnail says "Create your fist" video, not "first" :) just a heads up
nice catch!
Red Faction guerrilla reference...
trying to follow the tutorial and for some reason I can't get my character to jump, also when i skipped that step and went onto the Moveforward axis value, my character was sliding backwards not forward even tho i copied the numbers in the correct places.
Make sure to watch that part again.
If the jump doesn’t work it could be the inputs fault. You could doble check the key you are using or add a print string to know if it is firing correctly.
Otherwise, you are welcome to share the blueprints in our discord server
i also getthe same issue do one this change the value in the w ,s and try change with positive and negative
I placed some environments, saved project and closed. Then I opened the project again but my level is empty, all the meshes are invisible but everything is ok when I turn the play mode on. Outliner sees the meshes in gray color.
Select all the cells in the world partition window and click load
@@unfgames it worked, thanks. But why is this happening and how to prevent it?
That is the way the engine is optimized when you create bigger maps, also it allows for multi user edits using the one file per actor feature.
You can get rid of that if you create a new map and select the non Open World options
@@unfgames Got it. Thank you for your work.
I accidentally clicked something named "advanced Blueprint mode" or something like this, and my Details panel now shows a lot more settings, anyone who can tell me how to undo this?
14:14 I am getting a text over message from UE5 dev team says " Axis and Action mappings are now deprecated, please use Enhanced Input Acitons and Input Mapping Contexts instead. "
This was added for 5.1. I’m planning to create a tutorial on the subject but you can continue with this tutorial
I had installed UE 5.0.1 and could not get the assets. I needed to download and install UE 4.26.2 just to create the hour of code project and get the assets.
You should be able to download and create the project without the 4.26 version of the engine. You can click on the red version and just create the project.
@@unfgames There was no "red version" The hour of code project was simply listed unavailable with no option to download. After manually installing 4.26 I could then download and create the project
@@robbaric2748 I have 5.0.2 and I got it easily
I have a problem. Maybe someone can help. If i try the blueprints for the idle/run animation, my character don't start running and only stays in the idle animation. I build exactly all the same way like in the video. 😢
You can ask us on our discord server, that way you can show some images.
I would like to request a tutorial that make use of data assets.
Noted!
Once the game is developed can we release it with our unique levels ??
yeah, of course
Thanks alot
@@unfgames one more help can you make a video on how to connect two levels like when you finish level one you go to level 2 ??
@@DhrumilDoshi2002 yes please do you know how to publish this game
I have one problem. Maybe someone can help me.
When my character jump with the same animation like in this video his capsule collider don't jump that high. And my character cant jump on any object because his capsule collider block him... I the internet i found solution with Root Motion but did't fix my problem.
I don’t think it’s a root motion problem. You can send us the specifics in our discord server for us to give assistance
@@unfgames I have this same issue, my thoughts are that when we add the skeletal mesh to the character BP we have to move the z transform for the skeletal mesh down to fit the collider and the animations for jump dont seem to inherit that transform of the skeletal mesh, would editing all the animations to have the same Z position be the fix or is there a way to tell all the animations to start at the position of the original skeletal mesh?
can you make tutorial how to make game like dofus please I want to make it but i don't know from where must be started
Hi there 👋
Making any type of MMO is outside of the scope of our weekly tutorials
@@unfgames not mmo I need to know how can make just if you can make 2 character with 3 skills fight in room like . dofus. fight is great to me and thanks
@@unfgames its coming?
@@razomax2724 yeah making a turn based game could be, we love this type of genre let's see if we can make it in the future
@@unfgames thanks from my deep bottom hearts man thanks . I'm boardgames designer my game I create is . like dofus + you gi ho is still boardgame but in future will be video game thanks again for your help
Yooo thxx this helped a lot!
Welcome!
how can i get this background? plzz
which background?
2:46 its says UNAVAIBLE to me EDIT: it worked when i click in from the owned library
Donde consigo TeachersMarkaplace?
Go to the Epic Games Launcher
I can’t delete the camera component 😢
For a little while while I’m here
can u make one for 5.1.1
It’s pretty similar, the biggest change is the enhanced inputs (which is a video that is coming soon)
my charcter is still running even when ı dont run... how can ı fix it
Try and watch that part again and see if there is any difference
50:40 I think u don't have to make a cast on there but isValid()
Good catch. Different ways on reaching the same result.
Checking the validity is really useful to discard null pointer errors.
my character is not jumping what would be the problem
Check the inputs of the character, double check that everything is connected correctly
can a begginer who dont know coding can make game in ue5?
Yes! just go step by step, try not to overwhelm yourself
33:01
1:15:40
22:25 i dont have add jaw
nevermind foundit lol
4:20 are we suppose to make a Developers folder or is it a hidden folder already comes with project need to click on something to reveal? I also don't see the folder called Engine. Going to assume it's hidden unless someone says otherwise. I know how these youtube comments get ignored price we pay for free education.
There are so many comments that we may miss a lot of them.
To answer your question, In the content browser/drawer you can click on the cog to see the developer folder and the engine folders
👋👋👋👋👋
thank you 😃
31:39 just leaving myself the timestamp i stopped at
💪
Please don't do "for example if we..." just make a game and let us follow along. I'm not going to remember what you said. I need a follow along. Like what game developer CrystalClear does on his youtube site. FOLLOW ALONG DO WHAT I DO don't talk just do.
Thanks for the feedback!
Sometimes when we add extra examples is to give someone who has a little bit more experience more depth on the topic at hand, or showcase different approaches to a problem.
yeah, no. not everyone is made to blindly follow along. this is the worst feedback you could ever give a tutor. hes showing how its done. and multiple ways of doing it. it makes you UNDERSTAND what you are making.
I can't get the guy to rotate where your looking at, any tips where I may have gone wrong? Amazing tutorial btw, you explain things so well
Check the default settings of the blueprint and see if its following the controller yaw. Then check in the movement component for the rotation settings and see if Orient to movement is ticked or not
@@unfgames dude i love you, thanks for the fast response
