Fantastic tutorial series, sincere thanks! I managed to make the combat replicate, and it is wonderful. Learning so much from your videos.

What makes this implementation for combat so bad?

[@JAMbosco]

Man, you're awesome !! Thank you for this tutorial series that's much appreciated, thank you kindly !

buddy u are just great! can u plz create tutorial on cover system using Als??

[@sypdev]

This will help so much, thanks a ton man. Im currently having trouble implementing bow mechanic so I will try to follow some of your videos. Again, thanks!

[@lmbits1047]

I wonder if you reply to any questions or if there is a place where we can discuss this. Talking about everyone whos trying to follow this series. I got a couple of problems and checking a video of 45 minutes again after I already did it twice is not that pleasant. I already did but my arrow get stuck in the finger and it doesn't get destroyed. Also, the arrow is poiting to the left a bit and I checked every single position adjustment it only happens when the arrow is draw and ready to shoot. Ohh and my arrow shoots backwards... lol

im trying to make the HP system but no joy did you ever manage to figure out how to do it? its a shame that DeathDiary hasn't posted in over a year i hope he comes back really soon

[@tylerclinton3475]

@@melted9699 It's a tragedy they haven't posted in so long. I would follow any of the HP builds you see on KZbin, and I would hook whatever code I write to apply damage into the Get Hit Operation code. One of the inputs is the attacking actor, so you get a reference to whatever damage they're supposed to be causing thru that and then apply the damage to your actor's health. I usually use a float variable for health, and I use an ActiveWeaponBP variable that belongs to the Combat Component. So I'd use the attacker ref to get their combat component, and then get a ref to the ActiveWeapon so that I can get its damage. Probably place the code right after the hit montage plays.

any chance youll be able to make a gumroad link when you upload you project and for a fee we can get access to it? I'm still new to unreal and have been trying to modify what you are doing myself but haven't had much luck as it keeps getting called on in the next episode. your work is great and so far, the best out there but I cant seem to be able to get it to work properly.

[@Jen-R]

Thank you very much! Your lessons are great! Please write down a lesson (if it's not difficult for you) on how to make the character pick up an object from the floor and hold it in his hands, and when you press a key, throw it like a ball. Something like, take a grenade off the floor and throw it.

[@souhaibbenchaker4824]

did anyone managed to fix the weird hand behavior when shooting while aiming up or down in 20:16 ? seems like recoil animation doesn't sit right with aimoffset.

[@Alekay134]

Min 3:32 the Blue box with the extended word I dont have it in my project, Is your Own Code?

[@souhaibbenchaker4824]

DON'T forget to set Layering_Arm_R to 1 otherwise you wouldn't sheath the weapon when changing overlay. rewartched this over 5 times playing it literally frame by frame and couldn't figure out where he set it to 1.

[@gdaddyrich4614]

@DeathDiary plz elp, I made an arrow draw animation BUT during the animation the bow comes out of my hand and offsets till the end of animation, also when I fire the arrow I thought mayybe it was either not working or just going to fast but I figured out it's going down and to the left. plz elp

[@nunziobonsignore1061]

Hi! I'm using your draw fbx animation but my character is not facing like showed in the video. He is looking straight left and not at crossair pointer , am I missing something? Thanks for your great videos - EDIT: fixed .. I forgot to set to true the "mesh space rotation blend" variable, as shown in 2:53

[@AVANLOR-qx1cf]

Amazing

[@DeathDiary]

Thank you :D

[@sakithanavod9289]

MORE! MORE!! MORE!!!

[@justVontadeh]

I really like how you implemented everything, it looks up to par with the ALS system which is already very good. So if you wanted to make a second sword with different animations, damange, etc. what would your approach be? Don't you think it'd be better to build every different weapon as a different actor and store the variables there instead of everything in the Character Base and Anim Man? That way you only use what you have in that actor. Same with guns. Genuinelly asking because I'm having trouble figuring this on my own too 😅

[@DeathDiary]

I think the best way is make weapon blueprint for this then make childBP for each weapon. So you can cast to that weapon from anywhere you want. This way will be easy for implementation in the future. I recommend​ "UnrealGaimeDev" youtubr channel for this, he is very good with array and class.

[@justVontadeh]

Awesome work again, thank you

[@JAMbosco]

Any approach to make the aiming offset look at mouse position? For shooting the arrow at mouse position on a top down environment, the thing is, already have set up the mouse intersection on the world and have an idea to control the rotation of the character, but don't have a clue on how to make the aiming offset look at that place, meaning the up and down. Any clue will be welcome !

[@DeathDiary]

Check the transition rule from fire arrow to draw arrow, look into that variable if you set it correctly inside both combat component and anim BP.

[@kngparadox]

@@DeathDiary Its correct. The problem i think is when i perform Attack and still hold the Aim, the aim goes off anyway.

@@kngparadox Did you ever figure this out? I have the same problem.

[@kngparadox]

Yes, it was long time ago but from what i remember the problem was in input action

[@StijnPeperkamp]

@Danfour For me the problem was with input of the lightattack. I still had 'switch on ALS rotation mode' enabled. I still want this for my sword/punching attacks so I just added a 'switch on ALS overlayState' and only connected my fist and sword overlay.
