[jackson593]

Plz Help when i click add nothing happens

[LedKenji666]

I have a big problem when i click add i dont have those white and blue squares its pure darkness and a little wireframe please help

[sgtalexdrummer]

@LedKenji666 you need to change the preview mode at the top of which ever view port your using there should be a few different cymbals hover your mouse over them and select show lighting, or unlit if your moving brushes around you will have to rebuild to see the new position of the brush

[YourGamingTeam]

hmm if i made a game should i pay for UDK?

[sgtalexdrummer]

@YourGamingTeam it's free up until you make 100k

[YourGamingTeam]

@sgtalexdrummer waw :) then i will make that 99k and i will make it free game yeay

[sgtalexdrummer]

@YourGamingTeam it's not the udk that is expensive it's the modeling software, i.e studio s max or maya that is :-/ but's fun to play about with

[YourGamingTeam]

@sgtalexdrummer :)

[Ichvyenichalster]

I have a suggestion: Enunciate. It's hard to understand what you're saying a lot.

[defcon2XX8]

lol your a god of UDK how the hell did you learn all this and why aren't epic paying you for your efforts??? thank you for all you hard work

[sporemisio]

[sgtalexdrummer]

@sporemisio easy top right there is a box that looks like a toaster wit ha light bulb, you want to build all yo umay also want to dissable light mass to do this go to the view tab, lightmass, then unclick use gloab illumination

[magewarfare]

can you make it go back when you step on it when it's on the other side?

[DaFaProductionz]

Echt super Tutorial aber habt ihr schon mal dran gedacht euer eigenes UDK RPG zu entwickeln.

Ich starte am 27.12.10 ein Projekt wer Lust hat mit UDK zu arbeiten und schon einige Grundkenntnisse hat, oder wer Skripten usw kann, kann sich bei mir melden und mir eine Private Nachricht schicken oder es auf meinen Kanal posten wenn er in meiner Gruppe beitreten will. Wir suchen noch Leute die uns bei einigen Dingen helfen. Mehrere Informationen gibt es dann von mir.

[Benmen776]

hey if I spawned a character in kismet through a pathnode, how would I animate the character in matinee for in game cinematics or just be able to use him in matinee?

[sgtalexdrummer]

@Benmen776 you can but you have to look into anime trees for that, and its not easy

[Spartan1553]

i'm doing one of these movers vertically, and every time i do, it re-loops, goes to the bottom, and will not go back up. Any way to fix this?

[paul200638]

i found out that it moved from "add mover" to "convert static mesh to mover"

[GetsugaTenshoS]

@paul200638 people should vote paul200638's comment up. Going to be handy for people who don't have the add mover option that want to know where it moved to.

[paul200638]

i found out that it moved from "add mover" to "convert static mesh to mover"

[Lamarovsky]

Thanks man !

[Bls61793]

@paul200638

Thanks man, that helps a lot for us people with a newer UDK :P.

[MasterOfAllVideos]

Thanks dude! i like your tutorials. They are simple and straight to the point you shuld try making a game of your own some day

[simhua]

Nice vid, simple explanation of kismet with matinee

Thanks

[raterito]

I think mover is called now "interpActor"

[demonhorde664]

how do you get the platform to go back to the other side , askign cos i tired this kismat set up for opening a door , but i cant get it to close after i leave the trigger , i tried atttching the "reverse"to the empty box but no change door jsut opens but doesnt close back

[ozman1995]

@demonhorde664 I had the same problem, but fixed it by changing "max trigger count" to 0. And to everyone else, what ImperioAme said works.

[WeEatBrainz]

How do i make a windmill rotate

It always skips back to the start in matinee

[ebkkracerx]

It would be a lot better if you explained why you did each thing.

[lee155912000]

how do you delate things?

[ImperioAme]

Hey, i dont have the "add mover" option either, but i found that if you convert the platform to a static mesh, and then convert it to a mover, it works fine with the matinee (And remember to block all collision).

[dannyyip001]

I highly appreciate your help!! Your tutorial is excellent to UDK beginner!

[darksoubarna]

Thanks a lot this one worked nicely but I am not getting the creat Physx destructible option in my UDK Please let me know how to do it thanks

[victorzvyagin360]

ThATS

FU*********NG AmAzing! 

tHis tutOrials like, For idiots

weLl, 2day Ya gotta assume every1 is, lol

sO far THE BEST tutorials on UDK in Whole youtube- you Rock, Man!

[RwYeAsNt]

Dude I can't even fill the red box.. I click the CSG Add button or something like that and nothing happens. WTF!?

[studionightbird0]

I had a problem with the 'add mover' thing but I was able to fix it by simply clicking and dragging the platform onto that....platform thingy.

Downside is it wouldn't show up in the perspective mode so I had to use the other view ports to guide it around the stage.

Hope this comment helps you guys

[Clone006]

I got a little problem, when I'm going to spawn the "Platform" when I right click on the ground and then go under "add actor" I can't find the "Add Mover" Plz Help. :)

[NoelisteAnonyme]

I downloaded the august version and there is no "add mover"

I followed the tutorial perfectly;

what the.... ?

[phtbullit]

It's kind of a laugh how you don't explain anything at all, but just show us how you've done it.

[TheApprentice007]

@phtbullit ungreatfull

[jimmboy93]

I have the same problem... I can't chose the option "Add Mover" in Add Actor.

Must i have a newer UDK version? I have tested several versions but May 2010 UDK Beta was the only one that worked as it should.

Bye the way does the new Agust version work without any problem?

[jimmboy93]

@jimmboy93 Edit: Downloaded the Agust version and "Add Mover" does not exist there ether.

Is it like some kind of extra that i have to download to get it and you just forgot to tell us?

[MrTreeCup]

i dont have the add mover option

[crazyacrobat108]

@MrTreeCup i only find convert to mover not as an actor :/

[paul200638]

@MrTreeCup I found it, it moved to convert rather than add, convert static mesh to mover

[sgtalexdrummer]

@MrTreeCup in udk you need to add the object as w/e and convert it into a k actor, mover or ridgid body by right clicking on the object and then convert

[Smileperience]

@MrTreeCup Use add interpactor instead :)

[fireballwaw1]

can ya help me bec when i step on my platform it goes back down :S it wont bring me up

[MrSameho]

can i make this platform move in loop without player touch it ?

thanks

[nogie8]

I don't have an "add mover" option when I right-click and search under "Add Actor"... I do have my mesh selected...

[TheInfiniteNexus]

what makes me really mad is i used all my skills from these tutorials and others to create the level guardian from halo 3 and only to find out that it can be imported to my ut3 editor, it took a long time because i wanted it to be as detailed as possible but i guess ill have to do it all over:(

[lasereyesstudios]

@TheInfiniteNexus holy crap really you can just do that, dam I'm gonna go try right now.

[TheInfiniteNexus]

@lasereyesstudios i meant i couldn't import it ahhaha sorry

[lasereyesstudios]

@TheInfiniteNexus ahh that suck :(

[TheInfiniteNexus]

@lasereyesstudios tell me about it

[chriswormull]

for A first tutorial, this is very hard to understand

[2112inuyasha]

is this engine as easy to use like unity 3D

[lukassstyyy]

Didnt work the trigger, I follow all the steps. Thanks anyway. The tuto is great. Shame didnt work.

[Xzynorqui]

Wow.... I make the platform, change the texture, select my static mesh in the content viewer, right click on a surface, add my platform actor static mesh (Because I was planning to convert to mover as many of the below contents suggest when the option doesn't show up), and the platform doesn't show up! there is just a little X with the axis things around it. And yes, I followed the instructions step by step. Any suggestions?

[destroyed40]

when ever I play it the mesh moves to the other side but hten when it gets there it just ends and then goes back to its original spot. Help Please.??!!!! : (

[ratchet343sidekick]

what OS are you running on?

[chrille92lind]

@vidos4u U will need to right click the actor and convert it 2 mover

[StarWarsFriend24]

Hello Raven,

Can you do this too with a static mesh

[ncshuriken]

Thanks for this mate, nice tutorials, but can you remind me how to setup collision for a more complex static mesh (converted from BSP)? ages ago I made a moving 'hover train' with an entrance, windows and a dashboard (100% BSP) have accurate collision , but I forgot how to do it. Its none of the collision options in the static mesh editor (they cant replicate the shape).

Hope you can help!

[TheCreativeCoding]

Can you make a tutorial on snow? I need to create a blizzard.

[The1Interpreter]

I've been following your tutorial step by step and controlling I'm doing the right thing. But when I open the right-click menu to -> Add Actor -> Add Mover, It's just not there! There isn't a Add Mover option, and I don't know why. I've also tried with other static meshes, but it doesn't appear then either. Any idea of what I can do?

[IDDDENT]

@The1Interpreter : @The1Interpreter. I had the same problem, the solution is fairly easy. insert any static mesh as you normally would: right click Add actor - add StaticMesh , and then: select, right click - convert - convert StaticMeshActor to mover. this allows to work with matinee without getting warnings.

[The1Interpreter]

@IDDDENT Thank you, really!

[destroyed40]

@The1Interpreter I found that once you have made it a static mesh and just the static mesh onto the scene. then you need to convert it to mover and it will turn purple. At least that is how I fixed mine.

[OverkillGamingVids]

I don't have an option Add Mover.

[kyziken]

I didn't actually watch this video, but I saw the swimable water one, thanks!!! I making a puzzle game and I may need that. The game also features around 50 or more levels. Each has some sort of task that you must complete.

[TheCreativeCoding]

Hmm. I built mine just like yours, only once I step into my trigger, nothing happens. Any ideas?

[FirstPersonSlayer]

THANK YOU RAVEN, YOU HELPED ME A LOT! But not only in to make a simple platform... YOU HELPED ME TO MAKE "OPENABLE" doors!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!

[1stKarkan]

I don't get the option "Add Mover"

What to do?

[Corshmell]

@1stKarkan me neither :O idk where it is ive been checking for hours

[PrivationProductions]

raven, you are awesome

[Dudinify]

try add InterpActor

[KyleSimonEaster]

i dont get the option for Add mover static mesh

i just get add static mesh :S why ?

[KyleSimonEaster]

i have a Problem where it keeps giving me warning about a satic mesh will not work it needs to be Dynamic. if i convert it to a Mover it does work but i dont stay on the platform. so i can either sit on it and it wont move.. or i can have it moving but it wont take me anywhere yayyy

HELP!

[Dudinify]

if your mover has no collision, doubleklick on it -> collision-> collision type-> COLLIDE BlockAll

[1sparkypower1]

i cant find the "add mover" button either, what should i do?

[BenjaminGoose]

Hi, thanks for the tutorials. I'm having a problem however - I see no "add mover" option in the "add actor" submenu. Perhaps I've done something wrong?

[BenjaminGoose]

Never mind, "InterpActor" did it!

[TheDeathofGrace]

yes! i did it!

[TheDeathofGrace]

ugh so annoying... i follow everything perfectly and when i click on "add mover" it comes out invisible. i rebuild geometry and still invisible. i go into play the game and its not invisible. it also has no collision in the game despite me doing the collision thing like you said perfectly.

[jrfps]

hi,5 stars!

2 doubts

if the player is in front of the moving platform it will be pushed?

if the player is on top of a rotating platform(pitch or roll) it will slip?

[Halfback1990]

try learning by doing ;)

[lespaulplayer33331]

can anyone help;

sorry i'm new at this but when ever i try to open UDK.exe it says

UDK.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

and i have no clue what to do thanks in advance (:

[Halfback1990]

save your costum content and install udk new.

[generalflood]

I did this all right but when I step on the platform it like waits and then teleports suddenly to the end of the movement track.

Help?

[generalflood]

Along with this my mesh keeps disappearing whenever i reload the map so i have to do all these steps again

[daxfrost]

I have been having the same issues. I have noticed though - if you jump onto the platform the movement works fine, but if you walk onto it the platform doesnt move, then eventually teleports into its finishing position after the matinee sequence ends...

can anyone help?

[WowZues]

@daxfrost You're having this problem because you're not actually stepping onto the trigger. You can also increase the size of the trigger to give it a wider radius, that way you will effect it from further away.

[koekoeka]

Love the tut!

[ans7766]

thanks anyways..

[ans7766]

oh nevermind.. just found that i had the show static mesh off

[ans7766]

Thanks for all the tutos .. they are awesome!..

But, when i try to add the actor mover mesh.. it just appears like "invisible" i mean nothing appears, it is like if the plataform is transparent or something..

[ans7766]

I would really appreciate your help

[raven67854]

@ans7766

Help with what?

[ans7766]

look my other comments..

[MagnusRulerHardt]

You should make like "how to create an FPS in UDK step 1" etc.

[raven67854]

Some day

[YRUIM]

@raven67854 ill be here waiting for it!

[JustPrownage]

It's not working for me for some strange reason. When I step on the platroom, it doesn't move. But after a few seconds, it teleports me to the other side while I'm on the platroom. Do you think you can help me fix this?

[raven67854]

Not sure whats wrong JustPrownage but uhm I had this problem and wasn't able to fix it without redoing the matinee.

[eeyk1993]

Dont work by me :(

[powercheif]

for some reason it doesnt show the mover for me any advice?

[raven67854]

hmm? Send me a screenshot in a pm of what you mean

[TheDeathofGrace]

did you find the problem? ive got the same thing. no clue, i redid everything twice just how he said.

[ChefdeGuerre]

hehehe love it, you uploaded exactly when I said to myself; "Okay I need to start learning matinee" :p

Again Tks a lot man :)

[raven67854]

No problem

[kingofmyworld324]

I don't know if you take requests but could you do a future tutorial on how to control non-people-like characters? Like a ball in a labyrinth type game.

[raven67854]

Sure can

[kingofmyworld324]

thanks, I'm looking forward to it.

[misfun]

When it reach the end it starts right again, no time to get of the platform, how do i let it pause @ the end and then let it go reversed ??

Thx in advance..

[raven67854]

You could create a trigger the player could touch or damage then jump on the platform rather quickly then jump on the platform to get it to go in reverse.

[L00per93]

thx

[charginmahlob]

Thx again raven, Visceral here from UDK forums. Are you working on something particular atm, like a mod of your own?

[raven67854]

No not at the moment Visceral.

[bobwillneverdie]

Thanks for the awesome tutorial =D

[raven67854]

Thanks
