​@@MattAsplandHey Matt, I am currently working on a tennis video game for a University project. I'm struggling with getting the score to change to 15,30,40, etc. For example, how can I code that the engine is at 40-40, the next is advantage. Also, how can I program for whenever the tennis ball has bounced twice to actually increase the score?

[@flame5226]

First 😁 Great tutorial!!!

[@dreamingacacia]

Thank you for the tutorial. I'd still use the progress bar design because I want to minimalize the HUD so the players would got more immersive feeling than a big heart on screen.

[@MattAspland]

Cool idea!

[@PatrickTheDM]

Awesome.

[@MartKart8]

I like the 8 bit style of a heart

[@EpicAustraliaAdventures]

Hi matt, love your work any chance you would do a small series on the Vigilante war vehicle's?

[@rifat.ahammed]

Great Great.

[@andrenassifv]

sensei 🙏

[@gigasoftgaming]

I can't find any videos on this, but would you know how to do a "hunger, thirst, sleep, temperature and temperature outside with Ultra dynamic sky's" with Icons that are invisible but as you get more of that skill the tint changes so it will go from invisible to yellow to red for example? Kind of like the INeeds mod in Skyrim

[@jamaalsineke2405]

Hi Matt, I'm not sure how to ask you directly so here goes, do you have any tutorial on how to reset a cooldown? For example if my character double jumps the jump goes on cooldown, however, I would like to reset the cooldown( of jump and all other abilities) if the player kills an enemy in the air . It's the same mechanic as in the platforming game Dustforce

[@CommanderColson]

Hey Matt, not sure if this may be a little too in the weeds for you, but would you ever consider doing tutorials on procedural animation? Specifically maybe shooter stuff (like procedural recoil, idling, ect)

[@MattAspland]

No plans at the moment, but something I could maybe look at in the future

[@rlb1968able]

You should do Tutorial On making finishing moves for enemies as that's something that is kind of confusing

[@adhamfn7664]

Hey matt can you make a new video for the best websites for unreal engine to use such as assets materials and music and sound effects and other?

[@Pwnclips]

This video just pops up in my recommended when I was thinking of how to do this, lol. What's the odds?

[@kretenisyt]

Can you please make a tutorial on Google VR in unreal engine

[@comandoarroyo]

why i did a image and it appear with image size [0 , 0 ]cannnot scale it, i need scale much greater for it keeps their form .... it havent a size then i want to do it small but lost their form , as your hearth in 2:32

[@nfrancisj2122]

how about a spiral shape?

[@FedosGames]

unreal engine 5 is generally difficult to work with, why does it unload my assets all the time and I don't see them on the map? and it crashes more often than unreal 4. Can you make a video on this topic?

[@MattAspland]

I can look into it

[@FedosGames]

@@MattAspland How

[@loser158]

can you upload a german video to your german channel? PS: your Tutorials are the best!

[@ALEXGAMING990]

I have question unreal engine 5 is the same as unreal engine 4

[@MattAspland]

The vast majority is the same yeah blueprint wise. There are some differences, but it’s mainly the same unless I specify otherwise in the video. I.e. if I say this won’t work in a certain version.

[@Jake_P.]

ok is your name in the UE forums ClockworkOcean because everytime I have any kind of problem and this dude answers my post you just magically make a video about it.

[@MattAspland]

No that's not me, and I don't really check the forums much - so just a weird coincidence haha
