UMG UI Inventory: Menu Layout | 04 | v4.8 Tutorial Series | Unreal Engine

[@mazztothemax1888]

Im following this Tut using version 4.17. When doing the final compile of the Game_HUD blueprint i was getting a failed compile saying Slot_0 needs to be 'Instanced'. The problem was caused by when you copy and paste the inventory slots in the uniform grid. To fix this just manually drag each inventory slot onto the uniform grid. Hope this helps anyone stuck.

"Slot_0 needs to be "instanced" - Solved for 4.19 - Ran through this tutorial and was able to piece together the solution from other comments here. Basically in the InventorySlot widget you need to make sure all your variables have "Instanc Editable" checked (that's 4 variables: Button, Image, PIckupImage, InventorySlot). Hope that helps those that are also stuck.

I just wanted to shout out a quick thank you to Wes and all the Unreal team for helping us little guys get into the big game. You guys are the best.

[@JAWMpb]

Thanks for updating these videos! Very helpful.

I know that they never look at these anymore, but this would be so much more helpful if he showed how to dynamically set the number of slots.

[@freeman3608]

Did somebody find this?

[@geurtsyblox6246]

Cannot find the 'Style' heading at 5:40? Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

[@geurtsyblox6246]

Nevermind it is under the 'Appearance' heading!

[@kirillakulov9136]

Who stucked on "Slot_0 needs to be "instanced" just click "instance editable" in texture 2D (InventorySlot's graph). I hope it will be work

Isn't there a way to add slots procedurally as my character pick up items? What if I want my invntory to hold 100 items? Do I need to copy paste 100 times?

[@DonMatek]

I'm sure that's possible. Do I know how to do it right now? Not really :D

I've seen it done through dynamic arrays, but can't recall enough to help you more than keyword pointers.

In fact, a for each and add spot with a mod for flipping it back... XD

[@jessicazink6953]

Just letting anyone know whoever is using 4.14.3 i had to take out the VR settings in the FirstPersonCharacter blueprint to make the hud show up. Hope fully this helps for anyone :)

Really nice job explaining how to accomplish a functional Inventory, but wow, the workflow is a wee bit convoluted. As powerful as UE4 is, the sheer number of editors and varied types of graphs makes familiarity more a thing of brute force memory than elegant flow. Hopefully Epic can continue the work of paring down the need for so many types of windows (even if they are akin to each other). Thanks again though for the great learning tools!

[@RiverCitrus]

I am doing a third person blueprint. When you run it, the widget appears but the color does not change. Also, pressing the jump does not show gauge reduction. I need help.

[@four2nothin]

how could I make it so that each slot opens up a new column of items? So if i wanted a weapons slot, when hovering over it it would open up into x amount of columns displaying all weapons, or food or whatever.

[@karolkapusta3148]

When I run this my whole inventory panel is grey, i set text to be yellow, but its grey, any solution?

[@NeverEverFaceTheDark]

the problem with this tutorial is that there's a lot of prepatory work without any context. where will it lead? who knows. You'd have to watch the next ones and somehow remember what relates to what.

[@RaikunsGamezone]

Hiho is this the single or multiplayer version?

[@-solodev1470]

Thanks.These very helpful.

[@kylewindsor199]

Isn't all of this binding a smidge inefficient?

[@janusztarczykowski9003]

Wouldn't be more efficient to have PickupImage created as a SlateBrush instead of calling "Make SlateBrush" in the Binding?

[@flooblybub]

Hey anyone getting the Fast Create Widget warning, open the button widget blueprint again, compile and save. That fixed those warnings for me when adding the buttons. Another solution i've read people using was to drag buttons in individually rather than copy paste but that didn't work for me, godspeed!

[@taketheredpill1452]

I did this tutorial years ago. I would recommend this one instead: kzbin.info/aero/PLtpNaPTkjdL6jauQ8ZbiB9xe9ay_zfWNE This one, though, has some good stuff on the text widget that shows the description of the pickup. It's very processor heavy so I'd link it to an overlap event but everything else for that widget text is worth using

[@ika677]

good luck guys, i know its hard

[@Odb718]

Way outdated. Can we get an update?

[@rifat.ahammed]

Thank You

[@bluflame5381]

this is not a true style inventory your sis always open pls make one where you press tab and it opens i dont wanna constantly see my dam inventory everytime i play my game and even then yall make them to small make them bigger like a 4x6 grid

[@XakuyakuWaku]

This is just one video in an introductory video series which only gives quick examples on how to use UMG to implement a simple inventory for learning purposes. If you dont like it, its part of the learning process to experiment, find different ways to do the same thing, expand on it and make it your own.
