Not only this tutorial enabled me to create a main menu in a simple, easy to follow way, but it actually taught me to fix an issue I had. I never knew that you could assign different game modes to different levels/maps! I thought I had to create a single gamemode for the entire game.....

@GorkaGames 2 жыл бұрын

Thats great to hear! yeah I always try to make my tutorials easy and simple to follow :) And I am glad I helped you discover that you can apply different game modes for different levels. It is a very powerful way to create different workflows through out your levels :)

@SEANandSYD 5 ай бұрын

I gotchu! I had the same issue. If you make a new button (and make the Color Alpha 0, so its transparent) size it to the whole screen and set any other buttons z order to 1(leaving the background button at 0), so they function 'above' the others. Then you can click the background and not loose your cursor!

great video, made it very simple and easy. One question though, when I click somewhere in the menu that isn't a button, my cursor is lost and I have to click Shift F1 to get it back, is there a way to turn off the cursor in the game world and have it only on the menu so it's never lost?

@kartikeyabekkari806 Ай бұрын

you can make a new button whith its color as Alpha 0 covering the whole canvas and have that buttons zorder be 0 while the actual buttons the player will be clicking have a zorder of 1

Auto player activate seems to no longer be an option, now there is just a "auto activate" option, which does not seem to produce the same behaviour.

im using the first person template and every time it loads the main level all the controls dont work, can you tell me why this is happening and a fix for it?

@Amyleinxde 11 ай бұрын

Had the same problem my fix was: 1. In the MainMenu Widget Blueprint I added to the "On Clicked (Button_Play)" event: "Set Input Mode Game Only", right after "Open Level (by Name)" and don't forget the "Get Player Controller" and connect the Return Value of that to the new node. 2. Additional you can go to the Main Menu Level Blueprint Editor and add (right after "Add to Viewport") "Set Input Mode UI Only" 3. I also had a problem where my mouse cursor wouldnt want to show in the main menu, so right before the "Set Input Mode UI Only" and after "Add to Viewport" I added a "Set Show Mouse Cursor, checked the box and connected the return value from "get player controller So basically i set the input mode UI only when we are in our main menu , told the mouse cursor to show when in the Main Menu, and then switched the input mode to game only when we load into our level:) hope this helps

That's because he made a little "make player not spawn" hack: defining the gamemode class - with no player. The point is that he didn't restore the gamemode nor the player class when pressing play. Just skip the part about creating the new gamemode for now.

@drexxboban8277 4 ай бұрын

probably cause u have an infinite loop. Depending how u set everything up, your game starts immediately with widget loaded, clicking on button will load the same level with the same widget that will open main menu again and again. So instead of 'load level' function on button play you have to set function 'remove all widgets', and it will remove main menu.

Dont be so harse... i think you should use the event beginplay, then from that set game paused, create widget+add to viewport, set game and ui input, set show mouse cursor, and on the button action in the widget graph, reverse these actions so set game input mode, uncheck show mouse cursor, remove all widgets (or in any case just the menu widget
