Unreal Engine 4 - Adding Basic Movement (With controller support)

[@IoSkyBoyoI]

I know this is crazy old at this point. But finally someone that explains the basics. Every tutorial Starts with, well just open the third person yadda yadda. and its all premade so no learning. basically just lego together other peoples work. This solved the core answers about starting from scratch

First the axis mapping I did: Never Gonna Give You Up Rickrolled

[@Mdogg2005]

Just found your channel. Your tutorials are amazing and I really hope you're still active. You're a huge boon to new Unreal developers!

[@titanicgames4785]

I'm glad you like it :) At the moment I am technically "inactive" as I'm taking time away from the KZbin tutorials to work on improving my content and develop my studio's first game. Tutorials will resume at the beginning of the new year at the latest (fingers crossed anyway)!

[@Mdogg2005]

Awesome man, thanks and glad to hear it. Really enjoyed getting into Unreal with these.

[@CrowGMS]

i followed everything but its not working its rotates the camera by itself why?

[@pradeepkumarr341]

My character won't move it's leg or arm, it just floats front and back

[@wolfgangortner4329]

ok this might sound stupid...overall great tutorial...but why is my player only moving absolute left/right forward/back...it does not seem to register the player rotation part. so forward is sideways when I rotate my player 90°

[@jacobplunkett1758]

you ever fix it?

[@wolfgangortner4329]

@@jacobplunkett1758 yes, but I have to check what I made differently...

[@jacobplunkett1758]

Wolfgang Ortner ok thank you

[@pfontanesi]

thank you! much appreciated, as a beginner this is what I needed

[@ezekieldarian8421]

You probably dont care but if you're stoned like me during the covid times you can watch pretty much all the latest movies on InstaFlixxer. I've been watching with my gf these days xD

[@thiagofrancisco3289]

@Ezekiel Darian Definitely, been using Instaflixxer for months myself :D

[@thqp]

Pretty good. I did stumble into an issue, the right stick of my controller, rotates the character in place, but not the camera..

[@Canontechyt]

Is it only me who can't look up

[@trashflipzyy3627]

a question, i did all you said for moving the camera around, but my character wont look up and down, i am doing this is first person though, is that the problem to why my character wont look up or down, if not are you able to tell me a fix.

[@husifps9305]

same issue here. Did you get any fix?

[@trashflipzyy3627]

Did you do the sidescroller tutorial you talked about at 0:10 ?

[@Max-Blast_Media]

Wondering the same thing.

[@Pilot8091]

Congratulations on being one of the 3-4 people on this site that can make a followable tutorial lol, thanks!

[@AlecWyld]

There is no longer a lookup inputaxis available in the latest update...

[@LoneHatchling]

Even though this is an old one, it still comes in handy for my work, made finding that one setting I needed to fix so much easier.

[@LearnWithHefnawies]

you are awesome man

[@maxhightree]

Question, I have done everything you have done this far (9:10), but "Axis Events" doesn't show up when I write "TurnRate" or "LookUpRate"... why is that?

[@marcomeeuwse9263]

hi, I've tried to follow along but in vrgame mode I can't get these controls to work. I cant find the input axis(es) for the gamepad. only for the axis motioncontroller and teleportation. I wish to move the character for test purposes with a xbox controller. Hope you can help you Cheers!

[@jamescolvin1048]

All of my turning and looking is working fine, but when I move backwards, my character turns around and runs instead of backing up. Any ideas?

[@baarg8672]

great tutorial from scratch! is there a way to change pawn orientation from key? for example i want pawn strafe if right mouse button is pressed with side movement preserving its forward direction as camera when released pawn oriented according movement direction

[@norabseven]

Good tutorial but I was looking for PlayerController support not gamepad support :(

[@brandogt3racing]

I know this thus is a year or two late - oh and can I wish for you a very happy 2019, but I was struggling with installing the Xbox 360 controller to work in Unreal Engine; that was until I came across your most (and I say that most kindly, MOST excellent KZbin video! Many thanks for taking the time out to show how it is done. Bookmarked this for future reference! Brandon

I followed the tutorial and it worked but my character seems to not like gravity that much so is there anything you could tell me to fix it?

[@elllieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

i know this comment is like a year old but idc you can enable gravity for the object on the sidebar in the main window

[@thePadlockesTech]

Cool. I now know what is going on a bit more. One question though: How do you get a range between walking, jogging and running?

I tried to change imput scale 1.0 to 3.0 but it didn't work

I have my character all setup and everything but somehow my character isn't linked to my controls. like it just stands there as if it were an npc and when i click play i just fly around, anyone know how to fix?

[@frongos]

thank u this helped a lot it

[@23DeltaImaging]

I have been in the classic max/vray side of life for 15 years now. I' ve just started learning for about a month now, and I love every second of it. Finding out the photoreal/rendering stuff was easy for me, but these blueprints... I just dont understand how you know all these nodes, like how you find them. Is it google every 5 minutes? Or If its just trial and error, I'll need another 15 years. I'm just thankfull that people like you share knowledge because back in the day, without all these youtube videos it was a real nightmare. Believe me, beginners these days have a real shot at learning these things. If you started back in 2005, it was like going to the gym trying to look like Arnold

[@EmoDaisy]

Wonderful video! I was wondering if you were going to make a tutorial on character movement with top down? Im trying to add WASD and gamepad/controller movement to my top down but cant figure it out.

[@Justleiyab]

Hi im a Ue 4 noob and this works great if your player have one part but how can i make 2 Parts to Controll?

Can some point me in the right direction to a tutorial please?

[@johnread-jones9846]

Not sure if you found out how to do this or not yet, so I shall take a shot at it. You'd need to map separate keys in your input settings for the second object (if you want them to move independently) and then make a second blueprint character using those inputs, then mark them both as Player 0. This would be how'd I'd attempt it, but others would likely have different, and possibly better ideas.

Thank you for this good tutorial.

First video tutorial i see where the author explain what he do and that's a big + in my book so kudos and you have the perfect voice to do it! I have just a small problem with the keyboard mapping since i would prefer to use my left and right keyboard arrows to move the character left and right instead of using A&D but when i go in project settings/input and change the A to left and the D to right it simply does not work as intended instead it is rotating around the player?

[@AhmadMonim]

My character moves in wrong directions. How to fix that?

[@tariqsingh3747]

Change the scale (positive to negative) if it is inverted or change the node it is plugged into. Just a beginner but I reckon it will work.

[@crowzgamez9327]

I really like this tutorial, the only problem I'm having is I can't move left or back. I tried to copy a blueprint from what I thought was "moving right" and tried making it move left but it won't work. Am I missing something?
