Using Ladders and Jump Pads in the Unreal Development Kit - UDK Tutorial

[Alexbeav]

I seriously cannot thank you enough for this ! Cheers ! :D

[Sphere300]

My ladder wont face the right direction, how do i rotate?

[FictitiousWarrior]

@Sphere300 You Just Select The Rotation Tool At The at Viewport!

[TheBBoyJmE]

Thanks!

[aravindh0007]

u r best dude !!

[ThatGuy3455]

when i made my ladder my navigation points for the player start didnt go to the ladder things and it doesnt work :(

[afrim502]

i love your tutorials but how do i download this on my mac os x

[C0GSniper]

@afrim502 UDK isn't supported on Macs yet.

[SkullTwisterX]

@C0GSniper probably never will be either, the editor is built from the ground up on .NET and uses a ton of DirectX which Mac doesn't support. Now it totally would be awesome to see a Mac port of UDK but it would come at the cost of features and stuff like that

[MyFryBri]

@afrim502 check out my channel if you want to know how to run it on os x. I have a video on it!

[radazblud]

ok my ladder isnt working ive added the volume and made athe arrow face towards the wall i want to climb up its right next to it and i added the actor class as well ....help?

[inxamii]

SPEAK LOUDERRRRRRRRRRR GOD DAMMET

[VisualDrug]

xD I plan on taking all the tutorials, and watching them in order.. at the moment i just wanna learn what i can.

[bcut]

hey thanks a lot! I found a lot of problems online about ladder volumes using UE3 editor (not UDK) and this simple explanation worked for me in UE3 - thanks!

[mcgath2]

ty helped a lot.

[5Aces1010]

do you know how to make a tutorial at the start of the game?

[CaptainEvilStopper]

@bunniesz23 thanks

[nogie8]

how do i change the jump pad to my own design...? (srry i know i'm n00b, but i would like to know if it's possible) :D

[Dagarvs]

thanks for all these vids, they are very helpful

not as simple as unreal1

i look forward to getting my behind kicked in my first attempts

[CaptainEvilStopper]

so apparently making a ladder isn't that easy, because whenever i do, the ladder volume faces sideways and nothing i do works. any ideas?

[bunniesz23]

@CaptainEvilStopper Rotate it in the properties window. It shouldn't be that hard to figure out once you know where to look. Hope I helped.

[Nascar1555]

ladder does not work

[bunniesz23]

@Nascar1555

Me 2

[bunniesz23]

I think there's a problem with the new versions of UDK

[Nascar1555]

@bunniesz23 hmmm can raven help?

[cybervegeto]

This video is practically silent... but decent tutorial. Thanks.

[Nascar1555]

its not working

[metalhead13th]

:( Ok, my Ladders don't work! I Can't even see the green lines attaching the ladder icons and the playerstart icon! I have a March Build....is there a problem in this version?

[touristtam]

Unreal uses a dedicated scripting language when it comes to the UDK; check the documentation.

[neoknux009]

right im trying to implement this in UT2d, has anyone suceeded?

[fladur]

@DontEatRawHagis Just make a thin brush and point it to the bat. I think it should work, not sure tough

[fladur]

@KyleSimonEaster No until you buy a full license with access to the source, anyway you'll have to learn UnrealScript

[DanteLovesPizza]

@KyleSimonEaster

From what I know, you can only use UnrealScript with UDK, which is like Java apparently.

I don't think C++ works with it.

I'm doing a programming course at university, and people say scripting isn't as hard as programming, although not being good at programming, they both prove to be difficult.

[SkepsisDub]

also is there a way to make a custom jumpad..

[Danbanna]

I am having big problems with making the ladder work, everytime I make my ladder and resize it to fit the given area (100x100x1100, climbing down the side of a tower) the game crashes. has this happend to anyone else?

Do I need to move the ladder icons to fit the given area like I have been doing (when I create the volume the ladders are only about half way down form the top) or does it not matter where the icons are?

[Pwntzyou]

These tutorials are beastly, although I would like to see some focusing on getting a new project set up *aka* starting to make your own game with it rather than just building stuff

[raven67854]

If you took all of my tutorials. You could already start making your own game very easily. However I do have a tutorial coming up that will teach you how to make a game from scratch. Tutorials like that take a few weeks to make however.

[Pwntzyou]

I have no doubt in that, I am just eager to start flexing my C++ skills to start building a game!

[raven67854]

Well my tutorial is coming soon :). Takes time to make all of the assets as well as make the video's. Just give me time please :).

[DASBIGUN]

@Pwntzyou yea....you should be GSP at the Fremont DeVry. Beastly GSP course with a forces on C++

[ThatGuy3455]

@raven67854 when r u going to make that tutorial of making an rpg?

[Mafiadude1]

you are sooo pro dude...thanks a bunch! :D

[raven67854]

Your welcome

[SaigoMember]

what will happen when i publish the game and then i open up the runtime??

is it straight away to the gameplay or it shows UDK logo first??

[raven67854]

Probably shows UDK logo first.

[SaigoMember]

but not with pro version right??

[raven67854]

?? There is no pro version of the UDK.

[SaigoMember]

sorry, i thought it was unity!!

[raven67854]

Haha its ok :)

[eSerysLT]

I can't find how to rotate ladder. When i create laddder it is always faced to the X axis.

(and thanks for another great tutorial raven)

[Welocy]

Yeah, I'm also having this problem :/

[Welocy]

I figured it out. Select the arrow then right click and select Ladder Volume properties. Open the LadderVolume tab and then Wall Dir. Change the "Yaw" degrees to your liking.

[sackspawn1]

do you now how to create a enemy ?

[raven67854]

You can open up console and type addbot

[katana2665]

yes you can't use any assets that was created or refers to unreal. you have to create your own. Beyond that you can source the scripts for what to write and use the content to learn from, but it's a package to create games not mod an existing one...i.e. UT3

[FatKittensMedia]

so if you are making your own game you would replace that jump pad image with your own right?

This looks like its for editing unreal maps.

[raven67854]

If you plan to make your own game. You should probably change the mesh for the jump pad.

[SaigoMember]

is udk is needed to pay for something!!??

[raven67854]

What do you mean saigo?

[Phailyur]

Very nice thank you!

[raven67854]
