Use Custom Characters In Fortnite Creative 2

[@ijustmakegamesnow906]

Hey, just dropped by to say I was loving your Verse course, but I finished episode 8, which was posted four months ago, and noticed there is not an episode 9. I hope you're going to post more Verse turorials, because I'm just starting to understand this language, and I hope you won't leave us hanging. Thank you, miss you, please don't stop.

[@tommy5859]

i can agree !

[@ChezVee]

What a great Tut! Loved it. Truly opened my eyes on what's possible within FN.

[@thediamondkneeplate6981]

Does this apply to all players or just one? What can I do to get this to apply to more players?

[@Jurassicpark123]

I finally finished that verse thing and it says I can’t build verse code

[@Samburskoy]

Just woke up, and a new batch of great content is ready to go. Thank you!

🙌

[@j.j.maverick9252]

Amazing and useful content, again! Thanks for showing all the fixes for broken assets (too many tutorials use perfect assets which leaves all these issues out)

[@DTuppFN]

how did you solve the crouch issue?

[@SamuraiClipsFunny]

Did they fix jitter thing?

[@WarforgeXP]

It’s not a jitter bug just the wrong tool for the job. We still do not have a good way to swap out the player character.

[@JB-vd3jc]

I have a problem: everytime I import this and try to apply the material it doesnt work. It just wont place on my character. what can I do?

[@OldYTChannel436]

How do I create the 3D Model like from scratch

[@itscoldcoldwinter]

im making a story mode map i didn’t wanted cring skins in my map so with this code i can make players in map to use a custom skin cool video

[@Bulba1x]

Hey! How do I make one team the custom character and another team the non custom character??

[@WarforgeXP]

You will need a bunch of characters and levels sequences for the one team. Then in code you have to assign which character goes to which person

[@TheJimmyDodgerArchive]

Yo is it in any way possible you could make a tutorial for this to use on Zombies and maybe even guards?

[@DarkLegends635]

Hey Wahlbeck, been a fan for awhile. Do you mind making a tutorial about how to make hud animations, like something you might see in like Project Playtime? (ex A stationary claw doing a slash animation on player hud) Thanks so much

[@WarforgeXP]

HUD animations are limited right now. What I recommend is doing 3D scene with sequencer and then have UI elements in front of the background

[@eccogenesis7198]

If the model is rigged should it have animations? Or rig to the fornite meshs?

[@wogey_yt4113]

Amazing tutorial I didn’t use your tutorial for custom skins, but I used it for turning skeleton meshes into props, you just earned yourself a sub!

[@SanDuKul]

This is a great tutorial! just a quick question: can we make the movements smoother please because it looks like the custom character teleports every 2 seconds to the player's location

[@AgentMVoid]

Yes you can! Using the power up device. This video is out dated now this is a better way to do it. (I don’t really know how to explain😭)

[@SanDuKul]

​@@AgentMVoid ok thanks you i will try !

[@AgentMVoid]

[@DTuppFN]

Hey Wahlbeck, been a fan for awhile. Do you mind making a complete tutorial? finding your videos are 3/4 done.

[@UnrealPirate]

Hello!!! Why you don’t create tutorials anymore?

[@LokiEliot]

Can we do the same as this but with the zombies or guards as a way to make custom enemies?

[@Crazystunts4190]

Can you make a video on how to attach objects to players. I’ve seen a couple videos on objects following players, where it kinda lags behind. Is there a way to make it stick exactly to your players position?

[@zcz_sneglen_ttv2642]

i really like the verse code for the transform device you did with mustard plays are you sharing that at some point

[@LuckClover1]

I have a cool video idea for a tutorial on how to: a Kill Cam in UEFN in Verse, and perhaps even a final kill cam that every player can see at the end of the match of who killed the last person, this will make COD fan-games in Fortnite cooler!

[@KSzkodaGames]

Important question, If I set the players max to 100, does that mean your script will effect every player to become a custom character?

[@gameswownow7213]

i can't make it work... isn't there a simplier method ? something like just replace the skeletal mesh?

[@MalandroGF]

Hi, and if I want more animations? like shoot, reload for shooter game or attack and block to fight game? I have a question about the code, I understand that OnMoved function are subscrive to sprinted event but, I need make a function to shoot while running, shoot when stop, shoot when crouch etc? if you can have a request or make a tuto video with a complete animations will great. And another question, its possible change only the meshe of the Character? for example, use the standar squeletor with a custom model, because with this, you dont need make a code to all actions

[@alessiosantoro7844]

Hey, Can you do a tutorial where you animate the player's skin on UEFN?

[@awesomejelli]

can you make a tutorial of how to shift between your skin and another character. for example I want my fortnite charcter to be able to shift into the attack titan in game. And can you explain on how to make multiple of these because I want people to be able to shift to one of the 8 titans

[@youtony1990]

Is there a way to transport your player model to a character device?

[@vuxu8920]

Hello its been a while since you uploaded this vid and i wanted to ask. If you could make a tutorial how to make working morph? Everything like this video but instead of already have a custom character you need to come to block and then press E to change character

[@Vian_B11]

Is there a way to use the default fn animations?

[@perzonalQ]

so if i want my 16 players to have this i need to have always the 16 props in the map? lets say the players activate the skin with a button, do i need to have the 16 props active in the map even if only 5 are using them?

[@KuletXCore]

The "walk" is actually a "sprint" before the new movement updates in Chapter 3. The "walk" is much slower than it actually is. That's why it is coded as "sprint", IIRC

[@WarforgeXP]

[@acrobatkid1145]

I have to ask a question how do you change where the rotation on it because when I use it the model is facing the camera and not facing forward

When you import the model there is a setting to force X axis. That should help

[@UsernameRedex]

Can a 2d platform game be made with uefn?

[@petebaron]

Finally got some time to test this today, found a character with some animations and the import is looking good so far although I've discovered a couple of other breaking issues: If your character comes in HUGE, tick the import option to 'convert units' (it changes FBX units into UE units which are cm), this is better than setting the scale after importing, which may cause other problems when using code you wrote for normal sized characters. If you get a bunch of messages about bones not being attached, follow the recommendation and reimport after ticking the T0 option. Finally, to reimport, you don't need to delete the ones you created already (like I did, twice), just drag the fbx into the same folder and it'll recognise what you're trying to do.

[@petebaron]

A couple more tips: If your character has animations stored in separate FBX files, import those (drag & drop into the same Character folder). If you rescaled your base character previously, all the separate animations need to be rescaled too, otherwise it makes a glitchy flickery mess as it jumps from the mesh size to the animated vertex positions and back (most noticable in the Blueprint settings dialog). If the animation timing doesn't match the animation data (as seen here), UEFN (Version: 5.1.1-25521145+++Fortnite+Release-24.40) has an option to fix it: on the import dialog there's an Animation section, in the drop-down you can choose 'Animation Length' which will automatically fix the animation timing to the frames which have animation stored for them.

[@ttrudeau83]

Was the ticks issue ever resolved?

[@WarforgeXP]

No. It’s because verse runs server side. So the solution is to use control rig (which runs client side) and do a couple sneaky things to update the position of the controls on the mesh

[@dizzyndead]

The method that i did was to make an editable int variable called "PlayerNumber" and i plugged it into if (Player := AllPlayers[PlayerNumber] instead of having a 0 there. Then, you duplicate the device to match the amount of players you want, and change the "PlayerNumber" variable for each of them (Player 1's value would be 0, Player 2's value would be 1, etc). you also need to have separate props and cinematic sequences for each device placed.
