I hope to hear back from you 😃

[@jas-jr3rv]

youre the best, im so thrilled i happened to find you!! if you ever get a chance, you should consider doing a ps1 style graphics tutorial in UE, i really want to make a horror game with those graphics but theres not any in-depth tutorials on it for beginners.

[@LegendOfCalvas]

I swear everytime I run into a problem you have a video to solve it lol. Just made a map and tried to migrate it into my FCS project. and it was way too bright.. hit built lights and it made it way too dark.. so now here i am learning how to do lighting! lol

[@michabednarski5555]

What did you do wrong with the previous meshes? I'd like to known what to draw an attention on when creating mine from scratch :)

[@Beardgames]

Good question! I basically had loads of overlapping UVs (hard to explain if you don't know what UVs are) but it basically meant I had faces overlapping each other and it messed up the material! Make sure when you make a model it's nice and clean without lots of overlaps😊

Another one done!

[@skyline6648]

Hello about my previous comment the new models didn't fix the issue it still comes up when ever im trying to the build the lighting and the models show up dark and i get the same error "Object has overlapping UV's." and also "Lightmap UV are overlapping by 50%."

[@Beardgames]

Hey skyline! So basically the problem is in the mesh. It basically means the way the mesh is unwrapped in a way that parts of the mesh are overlapping (not an accurate description but the best way I can explain). From what I can remember I provided new models which fixed this issue. In the error log check which mesh is causing the error and try delete it and rebuild the lighting again. I'm pretty sure it's the floor mesh but as far as I can remember but I thought I provided a fixed model. Anyway just remove the error ones, you'll have lots of cool meshes to work with in the future so I wouldn't worry too much about missing one of my floor meshes. Hope this helps :)

[@skyline6648]

@@Beardgames well the problem is that floors work fine it's both parts of the chest that overlap

[@Beardgames]

@@skyline6648 That's no problem at all then. I provide you with a chest 100x better then then this one a few episodes later :)

[@Beardgames]

Haha its always rough but its worth it when viewers like yourself comment and appreciate it! Yeah man I'm going to get a discord up and coming soon but I'm trying to rebrand my KZbin channel and pick a new name before I create it

@@Beardgames i see u should try do twitter to promote ur utube channel and maybe do some live streaming but yeah it is not easy to be utuber need to take some time but no worry mate as long u keep up the good work surely u will go up in no time

[@andrewbyrnes6389]

How much of a performance issue is it having that many overlapping point lights? (I have a similar level - inside a dark dungeon - and because of this I’m not using GI very much). My light complexity is basically white everywhere I look, and that’s with every light not casting shadows. I have a flicker material function that is controlled by bp on all the flame torches, but I don’t think it’s super expensive. I sit at around 30-40 fps in editor.

[@jarrodjamieson6448]

Also I am a college student in final year, I have one more project that stand between me and my degree! I need to get a low polly character to be played in AR on Android. I have spent days and several sleepless nights trying to understand how to do this but am unable to. Is there anyway you could possibly PLEASE help me out? I'm not sure how to contact you so I'm commenting here

[@Beardgames]

Hey man, which part are you struggling with? I can create a low poly character and I've worked with virtual reality in university but not AR :)

[@jarrodjamieson6448]

@@Beardgames AH man you got back to me thats so cool. I am struggling to export my low Polly character with the animation in the form of an FBX file. When I open my FBX file in unreal my character is a little messed up, upside down, and at a scale of 0.01 centimeters

[@Beardgames]

@@jarrodjamieson6448 Okay man! When I do my "Creating and Animating A Character Via Blender" video. I'll be showing you how to export it properly :)

AMAZING FUCKING VIDEO

[@nokk_official7748]

I realized the Chamber Cube mesh (1M_Cube_Chamfer) is missing in the FBX Files. :D just letting u know

[@Beardgames]

The Chamfer Cube comes with the starter content ue4 provides. Make sure you're in the content folder, then type in chamfer and you will find it :)

[@AmitGinniPatpatia]

Keep it up. I have some tutorials for unity and unreal lighting. Level design. Game industry tips. Upcoming interviews. You might find it useful.

[@Beardgames]

Just checked out your work looks really professional my friend! I have to admit I'm no lighting expert but more of an all rounded UE4 Dev. Wish I had some heavy skills in lighting like yourself though!

[@AmitGinniPatpatia]

@@Beardgames Well, just watch around my channel and upcoming content. I am sure you can pick up something. Feel free to collab if you want.
