Hey guys, in today's video I'm going to be showing you how to create a more immersive first person flashlight. This allows the player to move the flashlight more independently from the camera, but still have them linked.

Could you make a tutorial about deadzone aiming, which is a bit like this? So that the crosshairs move a bit (and the weapon model turns) before the view starts moving.

Holy shit, I've been searching for this tutorial for so long, I fucking love you! Do you have any tips on adding an arm/flashlight mesh to complement this feature?

@TheChosenJuanLopez 6 ай бұрын

This setup somehow made my character shorter! I can't say I am complaining, I am trying to go for a VHS look so having the camera a few inches lower than head height actually seems to increase the realism! EDIT: So apparently setting the graphics settings to either medium or low puts my height back to normal?????? Restarting the simulation at regular graphics fixes it but if the settings are ever on medium or low the character goes to regular height. It's whenever I have "Owner no see" on the character mesh, which I prefer to keep on because I am not great at Unreal Engine animation stuff and it ruins the immersion a lot to keep it visible.

Is there any advice for having the character's arm activate with the light and follow those same motions without separate rendering?

@hyru_dev 3 ай бұрын

ALTERNATIVE USAGE AND MORE OPTIMIZED: Instead of using Event Tick, you can use the event witch call the Camera rotation. Just use Sequence in the (for me its EnhancedInputAction IA_Look) and the rest, do like Matt show in the video.

Do a line trace in the direction the player is looking, then lerp (linear interpolate) the player's location from current location to the location of the line trace hit.

@TorQueMoD 5 ай бұрын

This is a great video, but I think I discovered a better way to do this. If you attach a sprint arm to the character and set it to use the Pawn Control Rotation and attach the Spotlight to the spring arm, you don't need to adjust your first person camera and the head turns before the flashlight does which is more realistic and terrifying for a horror game. You also don't need to use tick with his method.

@rohanthorat1409 Жыл бұрын

Great Video! The camera is clipping into the character's body. Changing the near clip plane value does not fix it either. Any ideas? Edit: Keeping the target arm length 0 and moving the spring arm instead fixed it.

replication as in multiplayer? If this is the case event tick is for sure not the way to go as performance already tanks with event ticks

I don't know about immersiveness, but I got seasick at the fortieth second. I wouldn't want my players to feel the same, because my goal is to cause psychological discomfort, not physiological.🙈

WIsh tutorials would stop using Event Tick and explain ways to run these systems more efficiently through functions or custom events instead.

@Voorhees-Jason Ай бұрын

YES! I agree they do this because its quick and simple to get a video out and not care about teaching people the correct way of doing things

@Voorhees-Jason Ай бұрын

Why are these tutorials teaching the lazy ways of doing things. This is teaching very bad habits. Event tick should only be used for special use case and rarely never used for things like this. This means the game is running that code every single frame so if you are running 120 frames per secs so is that code

Hi ! Any idea why the character is spining aroung when I move the camera too fast ? like i want to do a 360 but the camera just clip and the player rotate on himself. weird to explain but any idea?
