YouTube video by DEVenestration Simple Interface For Keys & Doors | Unreal Engine 5

I made a very simple #ue5 tutorial this week. A beginner friendly interaction for handling different types of keys and using them to open different doors. The full project is simplified down to a few blueprints and annotated. It's also free for anyone who goes to my Patreon.

YouTube sometimes does interesting things like fail to auto-dub a video and then stop allowing me to edit it. So if you haven't seen it, I've reuploaded my last tutorial remaking the Glintblade Phalanx from #EldenRing in #UE5. Tutorial includes sword mesh and Niagara effect.

Hey, you all going to release the Epstein Files or what?

Low energy. Dumb take. Keep the trash on Twitter.

YouTube video by DEVenestration Making A Rotational Dodge Mechanic | #unrealengine

I made a few tutorials on dashing, but they've all been in straight lines. Now here's one where you can dodge around an actor, keep facing the actor, rotate the camera with the movement and control how far you want to move around the target! Trigger warning: calculus.

YouTube video by DEVenestration Making A Complete Level Select (Partition & Streaming) | #unrealengine5

I remember having issues early on learning #UE5 with level select tutorials not unloading stream levels or only working with world partition. I made a tutorial for a blueprint that can use both. It also includes a means for the player to unlock levels as they go. Also, widgets!

YouTube video by DEVenestration Remaking Popular Jump Mechanics in | #Unreal Engine 5

Hopefully this will be the start of a new tutorial series. I went through remaking a few jump mechanics in #ue5 from Warframe, Mario64 and Jak & Dexter.

Really like the Sly Cooper style of landing on railings

I'm thinking about putting together a new #ue5 tutorial series where I recreate a compilation of popular game mechanics from over the years in #unrealengine.

What are some of your favorite dash mechanics you've seen in 3rd person #videogames?

YouTube video by DEVenestration Lock On System | (Part 6: Multi-Target Actors) | Tutorial in Unreal Engine 5

Really need to get working on thumbnail work, but hey, at least the tutorial series is done. Heavily inspired by Kingdom Hearts this covers almost everything you would need for a lock on system. This is the last part, targeting actors with multiple target points.

#gamedev #indiedev #UnrealEngine5

I don't think most people are going to focus on the bricks. You could also mix things up with materials and lighting if you wanted to.

YouTube video by DEVenestration Complete Lock-on System Overview | Unreal Engine 5

This is a overview of a series I've been making on a comprehensive lock-on system. Parts 1-4 (of 6) are already released. It includes a soft & hard lock, target cycling, line of sight and focus targeting. Multi-target actors & enemy info the player HUD is next. Hope you all like it!

YouTube video by DEVenestration Mantling with Motion Warp | Unreal Engine 5

I made a tutorial going over prepping and implementing animations for motion warping, how to use motion warping, and applying it to mantling from a ledge grab. I provide an animation to use for the tutorial as well.

I see what you're saying. If you are swapping or dropping a weapon, you need to have the weapon handle the charge. My guess is that they do that but just have the charge set to zero when you pick it up or swap away from it.

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean about preserving. Floats are not accurate due the limitations with binary. 1.0 as a float is actually 1.000000119 (a bit longer but yeah). So when you have high numbers around 7 digits it's not going to equal the integer equivalent.

YouTube video by DEVenestration Grapple Points - Clair Obscur / Jedi Inspired | Unreal engine

I made a tutorial for grapple points with inspiration from Jedi: Survivor and Clair Obscur. A few interesting little things are in it as well such as a proximity progress bar as you get closer to a widget and a Niagara thether with a dynamically set beginning and end point.

YouTube video by DEVenestration Horizontal Wall Run | Unreal Engine 5

Rounding out every way to run on a wall, here's my tutorial for a horizontal wall run. It uses the capsule radius for measurement so it will work with custom characters. It includes a drop off time where the run arcs downwards after a certain point & wall jumping. Enjoy!

#indiedev #gamedev #ue5

I can't do that, exporting the file without the whole project will break the montage.

3 things to check

1) the animation needs to have a notify added to the montage
2) the switch on notify begin matches the notify exactly
3) place a print to test & if it works try disabling the player's collision

There's nothing special about the animation that I did. So if you used another animation what exactly isn't happening? Is it not launching up during the notify?

I have that specific animation included in the project files on the patreon for paid members. Otherwise the tutorial just shows you what you need to do if you make your own.

YouTube video by DEVenestration Vertical Wall Run - Assassin Creed Inspired | Unreal Engine 5

I haven't played the new Assassin's Creed, but I wanted to mimic the vertical wall running. So here's a #UE5 tutorial that does just that. It incorporates the ledge grab tutorial from a few months ago + a method to slow down the run the higher you get up the wall. Hope you like.

YouTube video by DEVenestration Understanding Vehicles and Possession | Unreal Engine 5

Here's a tutorial for anyone that's interested in vehicles. We go through changing pawns/characters, blending camera views for cinematic transitions & changing input mappings. We also use a blueprint interface so there's minimum code sitting unused in the player character.

YouTube video by DEVenestration Freeform Wall Run Tutorial - Spiderman Inspired | Unreal Engine 5.4+

I went buck wild with set gravity direction and made a tutorial for wall running inspired by Spiderman. Includes several different options for control and rotation, transitions from one surface to another and camera fandangling to support 360 degree rotations.

YouTube video by DEVenestration How to Make a Time Trial | Unreal Engine 5

I made a tutorial on how to make a time trial, complete with timer widget and scalability. Use it to make your final level more climactic. Use it as bonus content to unlock cosmetics for players. Use it to incorporate speed runs. Make an entire game around it if you want!

So I won't be posting Friday funday anymore. As it turns out, if you look up the hashtag, you get an excessive amount of posts by some dude showing off his feet. So, let this be a lession kids —Periodically check your hashtags.

The water looks lovely. Did you make that or is it from a marketplace?

YouTube video by DEVenestration How To Make Perfect Ledge Grabs Part 2: Raising the Bar - Unreal Engine

The second part of the ledge grab series is up! Continuing from where the last tutorial left off, it adds a new grab type for a bar. Included is how to animate a shimmy from side to side as well as quality of life improvements and next steps for you to try.

#fridayfunday 15/52, is not an actual band, but someone who makes very hilarious #music, #TomCardy. He is very silly and goofy and the videos are low budget theatrical which really helps the #humor. But for an independent guy making music on the internet, the quality of music is fantastic.

YouTube video by HIM - Topic The Sacrament

#fridayfunday 14/52, is HIM. As the originators of love #metal, songs have gentle lyrics with melodic, heavy metal influence. Themes are often #gothic and express many facets of love and relationships. Obviously very topical for Valentine's Day but good a listen generally any time.
