[karanrawat1996]

IS there any place form where i can download worlds i mean like an island and stuff?????

[KasedMonster]

Hey I got the 3rd person view working but when I try looking around the camera and the aiming cursor don't follow. How do I fix that?

[cloustron]

I have the camera working but the character model isn't visible? Any ideas why?

[SkirataClanLeaderAti]

TOO FASST ^^

[lichkingson]

i see you have reason on your pc and a lot of games nice dude

[AlphaKrizz]

i have the new version and when i press to play the Spawn is my Editor Camera not the one i placed

[mrninobre]

i don't know, i did everything exactly like in the video and nothing changed..

[UncleMarioBoss]

Why Is programming "Hard"? -it's not hard. Yes you need to read a few book's and learn the API- but what you get in return is an plater of tools which you can use to create your own UNIQUE game. -Truthly, if your a lonewoft, UDK is WAY out of your league- Sections of the game engine requires expert experience- something only earn't after using the engine over 8 year of experience.

I highly recommend going indie with the Unity3D game engine- yes it's not as good- but neither do you have to be!

[PearlsofLife3]

this is good thanks. not to the person doing this video but to anyone else who might come across this comment and if you still use this program, is it possible to have a different weapon? i have this character model i downloaded from the internet and he uses a sword. can you import characters to this program and they use different weapons?

[GetThatProgram]

Can I have your background =(

[Zei33]

Extremely good work, i love this tutorial, easy to follow thanks

[WayneDavisRocks]

only problem is you cant aim up or down using this method

[jaja3169]

Great tutorial, easily understandable. Thumbs down to those who mock others speech, most likely because they cannot speak properly themselves!

[lexluthornumber1]

Unfortunately this method of third person camera set-up only works when you play the game in the editor.

For it to work from the default game you need to have custom classes declaring the third person camera set-up

[ElectricalCloud]

FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! I FUCKING HATE THIS PROGRAM!

FUCK IT! PIECE OF FUCKING SHIT! I FUCKING WAS ALMOST DONE WITH THE FUCKING GAME, AND IT FUCKING DECIDES TO PULL OUT OF THE LEVEL, AND NOW I HAVE TO SPEND ANOTHER FUCKING MONTH REDOING THE LAST FUCKING LEVEL! PIECE OF FUCKING SHIT!

[MrRpgmakerkid]

How do i make the camera go up and down when looking up and down?

[Danteofsparda2237]

Thx for the tutorial man!!

[Future6556]

I see unity3d!! i use that too but i need to learn udk

[Hazan12345]

you should slow down!

[NeonReaving]

Slow Down. Just slow down your talking man.

[RyleySwanFilms]

is the player already in there? or did you model,rig and animate the player?

[zcxvnbads]

how do you remove the gun?

[TheTarzoc]

SLOW DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOWN! LOL :P

[djkeysmaster]

this is a stupid way to make a 3rd person cam, since you can't target up or down, only to the sides.

the real 3rd person cam is done in scripting.

[Kira2188]

Thanks, very usefull))) Great tutorial!!!

[Netaro1000]

YOU'RE GOING WAAAAY TO FAST!! SLOW THE FUCK DOWN!

[JMiguelDS4]

nice pc that u have, u loaded the program5 seconds WOW!

[BrainBlowers]

once you enter a vehicle and hop out it disables the kismet. how can i fix it?

[ljzCHEMICAL117]

OMG!!! Man i love you, I've been trying to do this forever now! YOur the best :)

[xXglaserXx]

Hey, I like the video. I'm creating a video game right now, but our Dev-team is short so I'm the only programmer. Could you maybe load a tutorial on Scripting/Programming UDK please?

[sithlizard]

I looked at your desktop, and it is SCARILY similar to mine.

Blender.

Audacity.

MW2.

Chrome.

Unity engine, and Sims 3 etc.

Aah! Weird.

[diggygoggy]

Dude Your heaps like me you use Fl Studio I do to, You use Unity I do to, You use 3d's Max I do to, You use Blender, I do to!!!!

[Craydon]

Hmmm, do you have to do this for every stage or is there a way to set it for a whole project?

[gangsta2king]

MAN THATS USELESS YOU CANT AIM IT ALWAYS SHOT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SCREEN ( WHAT I WAS SURCHING FOR IS A 3RD PERSON LIKE GEARS OF WAR WERE YOU CAN AVE THE ABILITI OF AIMING ZOOMING WHIT YOUR AIM AND SHOT WHERE THE CHARACTER MOVE. if someone know how or ave a real tutorial on how to please help !!!

[SpecOperation]

haha you sound like jarvis from ironman

[Jeebaah]

If you hold L and left click on the viewport, it will automatically add that same type of light. Just pointing that out in case no one ever told you. Great tutorial by the way, kept it short and simple!

[CookiesOfFunny]

Thanks...

[awesomeness4441]

omggggg you are talking too fasttttttttt

[Jeebaah]

@awesomeness4441 You know, there is a pause button.

[MrCrazyeyes000]

your voice makes me sleepy... :)

[MrDuskling]

Great tutorial! but you went a bit to fast :o

[fufdbuhy44]

i started using UDK not so long ago. And i want to know why you flattened out the cube instead of just using the sheet.

[ixameg]

I don't know why, but I fall through planes(sheets).

[VideoGameDirector]

@frankandmarty

if you're talking bout the way i pronounced it keep in mind that im european and thats the way i talk. peace

[BTNH108464]

@frankandmarty can you understand this: YOU ARE AN ASSHOLE!

[nun1nh0Productions]

is there anyway you could make a tutorial abou how to make a reloadable weapon?

[VideoGameDirector]

@nun1nh0Productions

I don't have UDK anymore, I'm using FPSC X10 and DarkBasic... that goes to everybody asking questions about udk. this was long time ago, im sorry. peace

[UnsoundAncient]

@VideoGameDirector

why fpsc x10 thats not an industrystandard, and it cant do nearly half the stuff UDK can, or if it can its not able to do it easily.

[Kira2188]

@VideoGameDirector

Already got it))) Thanks anyway

[AlpatraumSteigtGame]

@VideoGameDirector so you switched from an AMAZING and free game engine to a shitty one that costs $80?

[Salien1999]

I have Windows Vista, but it doesn't seem to work after installation, can you please tell me what the problem might be?

[TaReaperz]

@Salien1999 I re installed Vista, now it works. So try reinstalling vista?

[Salien1999]

@TaReaperz What? No, the program doesn't work.

[TaReaperz]

@Salien1999 I know what you mean. The program doesn't work. That's why I re-installed a fresh copy of Vista.

Is this what's happening

-You open UDK

-UDK loads

-Then error pops up then UDK closes or UDK closes or UDK is non responsive.

[destroyed40]

This is a good tutorial bu tit would be better if you could script it instead of using Kismet because kismet is level based and you would have to do it every level. Just sayin. : \

[dinozzo69]

i did it 6x times and still doesnt work..

[Starryarm3]

ill Say it must be hard trying to copy gta

[combly7]

you are very fast next time you make a tutorial can you slow down but good tutorial

[derkakid1]

Very Nice, but the character is already built, how do you make one from scratch?

and import it?

[TaReaperz]

@derkakid1 You would need skills on using 3D modeling programs like 3D Studio Max and Maya, but since those are expensive I recommend a free 3D program like Blender. :)

[derkakid1]

@TaReaperz Yea, Check out my vids. I already use Blender. :D

[A1260T]

thx so much bud

[Newbie481]

ummmm mine dosn't work when i press CGS add it dosnt fill in...

[darkmushroomm]

It won't let me aim upwards. :/

[Newbie481]

how did u add the score?

[VideoGameDirector]

@Newbie481

its already scripted, so you don't have to add, its already in there by default...

[Kira2188]

@VideoGameDirector

But there is a problem, when player dies and respawn, the camera is back again 1st person, what should i do?

[Ithenos]

@VideoGameDirector Dude, U seem to have experiance, I wanne make a small game, am newbie, know some stuff but still dont know much :S

What program do u think is the best program to make Videogames?

[VideoGameDirector]

@Ithenos

FPS Creator (if you want simplicity and effectiveness)

[flatbill2]

@Newbie481 If you want to learn how to build a game from SCRATCH follow the Tornado Twins with the Unity game engine. UDK has everything there for you preset to make Unreal levels and stuff, but if you want to make your own game, you are going to have to do a lot of re-scripting, and add your own art.

[SWMINIS]

I did evrything you did but when I play the game it tells me the lightning and the path has to be rebuild and when I would rebuild ervything, It would'nt work.

[Jaky2008PSN]

My result was that the camera was still first person but i had to use the right button to move forward and so on O.o

[VideoGameDirector]

@Jaky2008PSN

in that case you probably made a mistake in kismet, its very common to do a simple mistake there and in kismet tiniest mistake = application will not function properly...

[Jaky2008PSN]

@VideoGameDirector Its ok though as im making a map and if i want 3rd person i'll use the Actioncam

[4n1M]

@Jaky2008PSN you need to put on the relative offset rotation. it worked for me :)

[Jaky2008PSN]

@4n1M Thsnks but im gonna use littlebigplanet2 instead! LOOK AT THE TRAILER!

[4n1M]

@Jaky2008PSN i've seen it, i wish i'd have a ps3 :)

[theking199012]

awesome man

[mcgath2]

great tutoiral

[ncshuriken]

Good tutorial, but how do you aim up and down? the player character looks up and down, but always shoots straight, which is only good for top down games. I tried using relative rotation, but thats not it.

Any ideas? peace

[TheGameAnalyzer]

I would reccomend just using build AI paths instea of build all as light takes a long time. if you need to do light and its taking a while uncheck build lightmass and do that at the end. check out my UDK tips&tricks.

[littleclatchy]

Win.
