Unreal Development Kit Fluid Surface Actor Tutorial - UDK Tutorial

[MrPixelparty]

I cant save my map :/ and while trying to save it crashed a few times and i lost everything i made

[muddymanr]

@MrPixelparty The thing you need to learn about UDK, and you need to learn it fast is that it crashes A LOT! So constantly save your work.

what should i do for create a triangular fluid surface?

[lpdark32]

I most recently got the latest UDK BETA and I notice that you got alot more materials to work with! I watched your terrain tutorial and I dont have that sand texture. Here I don't have the water texture you used.

[vga1232]

Lowest volume ever.

Love your vids, but having a problem on this one,

The fluidsurface actor shows up fine in the editor and in the "play from here" thingy, but it doesn't when in game, it just isn't there =/ invisible? left out? i don't know

Any help is appreciated

Really low audio but it's not really a problem with headphones.

[TheTerraTitan]

When i go to content browser, there is no water texture even when i look into the content browser.

[adamraco]

@TheTerraTitan me too :(

Hey, ive came back to unreal after not using it for a long time. Updated to the August beta. and when i add "Create fluid surface actor" i get a small stamp logo with arrows. i don't get the large square with the Default Texture any more.. why is this ? and how do i use it :S ?

[BrowleeCrack]

hey how do you do a bullet impact on the water? i have been try but nothing happens

[troymcklure2002]

I was wondering if you could help me out. I am trying to make a fluid surface rise, like a puddle filling up. I tried to create a matinee sequence with a movement track, keyframing it in a higher position, and it seems to work correctly in the matinee editor. But when I try it in the editor, it doesnt move. I also tried changing the physics to interpolating as well.

I have a simple trigger volume linked up to play in kismet. Any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated.

[SniperAnim]

all my meshes and objects have bits of red on them and on the initial screen when i make a new level, it has loads of red lines all over like a grid. i wonder if you or anyone knows what the problem it and how to get rid of it, thanks

[sUcCeSspr0ductions]

@SniperAnim Did you ever find a solution to this problem? I'm having the same problem...

[SniperAnim]

@sUcCeSspr0ductions someone mentioned it might be to do with my graphics card isn't good enough or i haven't got the most up to date drivers, so that seems to be the only solution so far

[SniperAnim]

@sUcCeSspr0ductions I just updated my graphics card drivers and it fixed the problem perfectly. red lines gone. WOOP!

[PKreviewsnvideos]

[ergalybergaly1753]

how to aply matterials to it

[LtnBravoWise]

raven what uhh video card do you use? because it says to me that it does not work with my shader model 2

[LittleJustin08]

Do you know how to make the fluid surface actor round for something such as a round fountain?

[Dachu18]

Hey man.

How to create fluid surface witch will respond to touch pieces fall off the wall.

[MagnusRulerHardt]

Why are the some materials that can't be assigned? I made a water material, and I can't use it on a fluid surface actor.

[OP3NGL]

Are you using fluidsurface right?, do you know why when you drag and drop a rigid body, the body doesn't float? it fall with the same gravity a velocity than in air

[nesh96]

you need to put a water volume so it will act like water inside

[MasterOfAllVideos]

Raven your videos are very good.

Do you know how to make enemies in UDK? People to shoot at? if you do please help me!

[marko060496]

how can i make 3d riplle...like in crysis.icreated mega realistic water but the only left thing to do is 3d riplle how can imake it.?

[zAlasdair]

Great videos Raven, although my only critic is the audio volume, in this video it's so quiet, then you move onto another and it's really loud - you need to adjust the volume levels of each video to be consistent, please? :)

[raven67854]

All new video's are loud. Older video's are quiet.

[Caitshift]

@raven67854

In older videos you're living with your mother, on new videos you have your own apartment. Ok just joking mate :) great tutorials.

[AreDub3D]

That's great, but if you scale it up to make a large body of water, the material scales with it, creating large waves.

How do you make a large body of water?

[xld3000]

hey what does debugging do?

[xld3000]

the grid that the views are on, on the right side. how do you change the grid count. because when i try to line up the lines of the two boxes, i cant because the grid that its trying to snap to is too big.

[xld3000]

@xld3000 nevermind i figured it out

[itatchi83]

I can't get the second box to line up directly with the first.

It screws everything up as well.

[Eldara5]

Hey love your tutorials helped me out alot. Any chance you could make a tutorial on how to add in some basic AI. I have a map but it gets boring when there is nothing to fight.

[mrpigy12]

um i have a problem when i try to move anything its realy jerky like not my comp is slow its just i have no precision like i am stuck on a grid or something

[raven67854]

Hmmm I am not sure what your problem is. Are you only able to move the object on one of the axis? If so then let go of ctrl. Otherwise I am not sure what your problem is.

[mrpigy12]

no i can only move things by one square on a grid i cant get any more precises then that

[raven67854]

I am not sure whats wrong then.

[kopar69]

In the lower right corner, there's a bunch of snaps (grid,angle and percent)

you can either tun off the grid or lower it to 1 like raven has done.

[raven67854]

I keep it at 1 always for precision. You can also use [ to lower the grid size and ] to raise the grid size

[socrates214]

Raven you're amazing, I've been searching online for a few days now trying to find some tutorials to teach me basics and later some more advanced things, then I found some of your tutorials, you've helped a lot. I'll definitely be checking back to see some more tutorials, thanks again.

[raven67854]
