Unreal Engine - Rhythm Game using MetaSound Cues

[@mcawbosse7000]

Thank you sooo much!!! I've been struggling with how to make a rhythm game project in UE for a year, your tutorial really helps me a lot!!!!! Thank you!!

[@mckaymusicTV]

Hands down the best basic tutorial on Rhythm blueprints. Learned a lot. Thank you! Would love to see a video on how to set up multiple lanes, perfect/good/late/early hit detection and a basic scoring system but I'm sure I can figure it out with this base. Great job.

Awesome tutorial!! I've been looking for something like this. One issue I'm running into is that I don't see my cue wire pulsing red like yours does even though my WAV does have markers in it. I'll keep testing. Thanks again :)

Thanks for making this awesome tutorial. It was a big help. I’ve completed it and expanded on it.

That's awesome to hear, glad it helped!

Thanks for this, been working on an unreal engine rhythm game, and this helps me get an idea of how to approach this with current tools! Any thoughts on how to adapt this to a "pop up" in an open world adventure platform game? is it better to have this be a scene or "stage" that the player gets moved over to? or could I simply load these assets into the world and "pause" the rest of the game during the rhythm section?

This is a great tutorial, I am making a Rhythm Game for a uni Assignment and this has been a great help. I am having an issue when I try to reposition and or Rotate the Spline around the Level, The Note seems to still spawn in the exact same location as before. It's like SpawnActor is not registering the Spawner location? Edit: So I fixed the issue - Setting the [Get location distance along spline] node and [Get location rotation along spline] node to World instead of Local seemed to fix it!

This makes me want a 3D Pac-Man Arcade

How do I change the rotation of where the note goes? My spline is rotated 90 degrees on the z axis, but when i test out the note's path it doesn't have that rotation.

[@CreativeGraham]

Another viewer below had the same issue (@Andromeda7Music) if you open the BP_Note blueprint, try changing the 'Get Location at Distance Along Spline' and 'Get Rotation at Distance Along Spline' nodes from 'Local' to 'World' under Coordinate space.

😅Hallelujah, got it running, had a bad spelling.

[@CreativeGraham]

Nice, glad to hear you got if working!

[@WolframBlechner]

I tried two times to build this, but both times I don't get any Notes appearing, just the Music plays. Any Idea?

[@jacquesaudet9960]

I’m stuck at the 30 min mark. Maybe you have the same problem as me. For me, the notes are spawning at the player start location instead of the spawner location.

[@jacquesaudet9960]

Nvm saw you fixed your issue.

[@gemma_sll]

I't happens the same for me too 😢

[@kaoritsukino2379]

@@gemma_sll I was using 5.3 and couldn't get the notes to spawn with the cues too but I tried updating to 5.4 and set the project quality preset to max and it spawns so you might need to do one of those.
