In this video, we will be showing you how to build a dynamic minimap for your game in Unreal Engine. We will start by creating a blueprint for our minimap camera, which will allow us to control the camera's movement and zoom level. Next, we will set up the minimap's UI, including the player's location. Finally, we will go over how to add interactivity to the minimap, such as the ability to pan and zoom, and how to use it to navigate the game world. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, this tutorial is a great resource for learning how to create a functional and visually appealing minimap in Unreal Engine. So, stay tuned and join us as we take you through the process step by step. Easy to follow and better performance then most simple minimap tutorials available.

On map rotation and player location, if you want it to work with anything you possess like if you possess a vehicle, you should use "get player pawn" instead of "get player character"

Just what i was looking for, gives much better options and performance than using a second camera above the character. you could use the player speed to determine how zoomed in or out the minimap is so it shows more of the map when traveling faster and less when going slow (e.g. on foot/in car) I can see this method being useful for a fullscreen world map, no rotation but instead showing the direction the player is facing

Hello, I managed to do it thanks to your tutorial, but on another level the player doesn't start in the 0 location in both X and Y, is it possible to start from another point? I tried changing the values in the Material Parameter collection but I'm having difficulty

How would i track other moving actors on the map

When doing the export I was getting an image with only transparency, to fix this i had to change the render source for the screen capture 2D to Final Color. Other options probably work too but the default scene color ones didn;t for me and my map. Just wanted to let people know.

Is there any way to make the same minimap but as a square that stays in position? when you follow the video but leave out making it round you get a square that rotates around.. I really can't find any solution

@pterafier Ай бұрын

rotate the player marker instead of the map

So, say that I had a map (3d world) that was 4081 x 4081, and the texture that I exported (height map) is 4081 x 4081... what value would I put for the dimension? I did not create the map with an ortho projected thing. So I dont have a 5000000+ x size map

@dk_3d 11 ай бұрын

In the video the image is 2048 by 2048 px so your map is double the size. You should use similar numbers or multiply by around 2

I got everything to work with my dimensions, except for the zoom. The zoom has to work a bit different for me. the 3D world is offset and spawns landscapes at 0 0 0 outward in X and Y. So, I have to find an offset and apply that offset to get to the real 0 0 of the world. This works for the lower portion of the graph, but it doesnt work for the zoom. I will keep messing with it. Thanks for the tutorial as it got me on the right path @@dk_3d

Do you know how to draw paths to waypoints? Like you have them on your thumbnail

@dk_3d Жыл бұрын

I'll make one video for markers (waypoints) and paths to them depending on how much things end up going in may be even couple videos

@@dk_3dHi! Did you figured out how to do it? Can’t find a good way to draw paths to waypoint only on map. I would be grateful if you could show how to do that. Anyway, thank you!

Sure, you can use anything to create an image for your map, you can use the render that you export from Unreal directly if you don't want to do any stylization
