In this video, we begin implementing the widget classes required for the character select menu system.

[@SHAD0WN01]

I really like the fact that we update the existing work progressively to add this new feature. Your explanations regarding the Design of the whole system are top notch to understand how to approach such topic and how to adapt it to our own needs as it is modular. It's greatly appreciated! I agree that navigating in Menus through the gamepad is a real pain and I didn't think about this solution with the d-pad. Nice hack!

[@DevEnabled]

That's great to hear and I'm happy that the extra details are useful. I figured there are a lot of different types of shared screen systems so it would be more useful to people if I coved as broadly as possible to let people decide where to take the project.

[@doomgriever]

These tutorials are great! Thank you! Helps clear up a lot of things. It was quite difficult to figure out how to set up Multiplayer properly without a guide

[@DanPos]

Thanks a lot for this tutorial series! Been following along but implementing in C++, I mainly work in Unity so its been great to see how Unreal does things :D

i cant connect the menu widget refrence to the target of the add character select node

[@Primitive1]

Same here @Dev Enabled. When trying to cast Add Character Select to Set:Character Menu Ref I get the error "Widget Object Reference is not compatible with WBP Character Select Object Reference"...timestamp 9:47 in your vid...I love your succinctness and would really like to finish this tutorial but am hard stuck...I've re-watched and googled so many times feel like I am going crazy...please come to our aide!

@@Primitive1 Very late reply so it probably doesnt matter now, but for all future viewers who come across this issue If you notice at 8:38 theres a cut in the video, after the cut there is a new variable called "Character Select" To fix this issue, create a new variable "Character Select" with the variable type "WBP Character Select" (if following the same names has him) and this is allow you to continue following the video. It seems like he cut the creation of this variable unintentionally

@@keldy2119 thanks much!

Can you make a tutorial where your in the main menu and it has a option press A to join split screen in top right corner but the main menu doesn’t actually split the screen it just enables the split screen Boolean, and once the game starts, it will start in split screen depending on the bool

[@Full_Zeb]

I have a quick question/Request How would I replicate this onto an online scenario? Currently trying to follow other tutorials but my Client doesn't seem to want to receive input nor conform to the camera

[@Gunner3332]

This is awesome!
