In this tutorial, which is Part 4 of my How To Make A Multiplayer First Person Shooter In Unreal Engine 5 tutorial series, I'll show you how to set up the core code of a replicated two weapon system, as well as how to blend between animations based on which weapon your character is holding.

If your having problems with the gun going in the body of the character after you pickup 2 weapons this is how to fix it: "BP_Weapon_Comp_Master" then, where it says "destroy component" make sure you connect it to the secondary and primary weapon. Examp.le: destroy component Then, set primary weapon. do the same thing for the secondary weapon

In other words, pay close attention and set up everything exactly as shown in the tutorial. 😉

1:10:34 for some reason it works at first, but if I swap weapons a few times then it shows both primary and secondary at the same time again. Any tips on where I went wrong? The visibility seems correct

@6henny443 2 ай бұрын

In my game, the weapon pick up is replicating on both sides for the pistol and the rifle except whichever weapon you pick up. It will only swap to the other weapon one time if you try to swap again it will just take every weapon out of your hand and every time you pick up multiple assault rifles, it will stick one in the middle of yourpelvis

Yeah so holding the F key down was the probroblem. I have never played a game that makes you hold a key down to pick up stuff off the ground so I am going to decrease it. Also the it spans another rifle at my location if you already have one equipped. my guess is you go over that but if not then now yall know

hey i just finished the tutorial. and its great everything works as expected and is set up well to be modular and customizable. i cant wait until the next tutorial. i hope we go in to actual gunplay XD would be awesome to have both a projectile weapon and a line trace weapon example XD. i just have an error happening on my end with the first-person anims. for some reason i cant get it to work i get this error (Blueprint Runtime Error: "Accessed None trying to read property FirstPersonCharacter". Node: Set Current Weapon INT Graph: EventGraph Function: Execute Ubergraph First Person Anim BP Blueprint: FirstPerson_AnimBP) but i kept going and the 3dperson anims works fine no problems there. it looks like it cant access the int that i set up even tho i did the exact same thing. it redirects me to this part 1:12:25. idk real what iv done wrong. do bear in mind i don't use metahuman arms. i just use the default Manny arms again many thanks for making these tutorials it helps a lot to us new guys to unreal especially cuz most tutes are outdated,

ok never mind i fixed it it was because i didn't notice the section where you cast it to the first person character, probably something i missed in a previous tutorial. but saw a glimpse of it on the top left at 1:11:58. and it removed the error messages :) ok cool im already learning how to fix stuff now

is it just me or does this happen to anyone else, when the client pick ups the rifle it can spawn infinite copies of the rifle when holding f. it doesn't do it with the pistol and the server cant do it either

@6henny443 Ай бұрын

you end up figuring out what it was? running through here again, I found my client could drop unlimted ar's if he had an ar but it works otherwise and doesn't do that for the pistol or server. the code matches exactly and it works exactly as it works in the video, only drops one, But for the AR, the client has ability to keep activating drop, and it just keeps spawning a drop, even if not near a pickup.

@omaralhassan2300 Ай бұрын

@@6henny443 sadly not. Im still trying to figure it out. If u pick up the dublicated ar does it also just stick the guns to your hands ?. Also on server side if u try to interact with nothing while holding the rifle. It also just sticks the weapons to my hands.

@6henny443 Ай бұрын

@@omaralhassan2300 So if you are at the drop point in the tut we haven't yet set up the logic to hide the other gun or put in inventory yet. He does that later and it should work as long as you follow along. My issue is right now I started the tut over and at this point 56:35 my game does exactly as his, but for some reason if I'm on the client, and I have an AR, I can press interact and it will drop 1 AR weather I am near a pickup or not. If i am near a pickup, it only drops one and has the desired "swap" effect. However if I am away from the pickup, I can drop one AR at a time infinitely, but it doesn't do that for the pistol? and doesn't do it for either weapon on server. Idk

@omaralhassan2300 Ай бұрын

@@6henny443 Nono I have watched the tut like 4 times now. And I still have the issue. And the same behaviour as u. Try to interact with nothing while holding the ar. Then pick up a pistol. It should stick together for some reason. If I pick it up normally it behaves correctly but its got somthin to do with interacting with nothing. Idk why it does this. And on Client I can spawn infinit ars and if I pick it up it sticks. But for some reason the pistol behaves perfectly

I have a question, why we have 2 different things, pickup and component? Can't we just attach the weapon which is on the floor to hand_r socket, instead of deleting it then spawning a component in hand? Or Is there something that I don't know? The only thing that I can think of is the pickup only contains info bout the static mesh, but comp contains a whole lot of info and there is something to do with it?

@natecoet3291 2 ай бұрын

You have two skeletons. One for the third person and one for the first person in order to attach the weapon to both, one locally so what you see as the player, and not locally what the other players see, you need to spawn it. If you attach the weapon it will attach only to one skeleton meaning it will not attach to the third person on the server and on to the first person as the client. That is why. If you were doing a true first person with one skeleton then you could attach the weapon directly.
