Got my local git working and able to backup everything. Working on the camera now, specifically zooming in and out with mouse wheel

Side note: working on FF1 all white mage run. Ugh is what I am saying right now

I still need to look into creating a local git repository. With unreal, I think it would be easier and then back that up to an external drive.

Yeah was told to do that and figuring out how to do it.

Well, I tried to move some blueprints around in unreal...don't do that ๐Ÿ˜‚

Everything just vanished and redoing everything. Oh well.

Slowing down on my game, temporarily, and speeding up with plugins. Should help me make games faster and should be able to easily update them. Still working on my first one.

Well figured out the issue I was having with not being able to have Jump work. After the C++ was done, needed to go into the BP and set the IA there ๐Ÿ˜”. I keep forgetting that.

Back to the grind! Will be working on getting animations and setting them up for our character. T-Pose just isn't cutting it.

We are back with more C++ learning before diving into unreal. I think I am getting a better grasp on C++ in general which should help me with unreal.

Back to working on C++. Had some issues last night with VS 2022 but got them fixed and should be good to go learning.

Want to learn C++, not only for unreal and making my game but for cyber security as well. I know a little but think it is time to get back into it.

Decided to take a step backward and look at crouching again as I found some nice animations that I like. Also like how it moves so let's check it out.

Figured out the issue I was having with the character so time to keep moving forward. Crouching and getting the animations to look better maybe?
