Spawning The Muzzle Flash - #15 Creating A First Person Shooter (FPS) With Unreal Engine 4 

How do i attach to component?

Dude you are a fucking legend!!!! It’s been 30 minutes of me trying to figure out what the hell is wrong and all I had to do was disconnect location and rotation. Cheers.

But... it's not supposed to follow it...

@@alekosthecrow lol

when i use emitter attached and attach it to the skeleton, the muzzle flash is weirdly rotated and is not at the right place

thx

Thanks!

yes same here !! Any solutions ?

infinity blade is not in the shop anymore, i personally use twinblast "nitro_muzzleflash".

Search google for "gunshot .wave file" choose one you like and download it. then import the .wave into UE4. Open your Thirdperson BluePrints. Find your fire weapon area. "Fire weapon"--->drag off node and type in "play sound" or "Spawn sound". Then select what sound you want to play when you press "Fire Weapon". Or you can add Sound component to your Projectile_Base_BluePrint. Select sound from there. Try to play sound in your Projectile BP. so when u are out of ammo your gun makes no sound

He did, You can just find any sound you like and add It to the projectile base

I am also from Germany, I think he add a shoot sound in Video 14 at the end.

Thanks!!!!!!!!!

Input left mouse > play sound (____)

I fixed it. You should pick "spawn emitter attached"

Thanks, it helps me

@@cettura what settings are u using on the spawn emitter attached? im using it but its not working either

It didn’t work with me how did you do it?

I know this is six months old but if someone still faces issue on how to use the spawn emitter attached, First you need to attach the skeletalmesh of the equipped weapon to the attach to component of the emitter Than u need to type in the socket name of the muzzle in the attach point name. Hope it helps someone

If you are not able to see muzzle effect in blade effects then restart engine then you definitely get them

Does someone know how to fix this? It would be great if someone can help because i can go on with my first game

Nice video btw like your channel so much, watched a lot of videos from you this week and liked them all

JendoScout Thx man that was the problem now it works fine

Same Problem

I'm not sure about the assets from his website, but you can use the ones from the UE4 marketplace.

Super new to this myself but if this isn't fixed later in the series then something along the lines of "if sprinting then disable ads camera" might work?

that should be in the past videos he did. plus he has a playlist so look for that and he will teach you

Typically Unreal Engine updates the comparability of the pack within a couple weeks of release. You can either use a older version of the engine or hold tight. Best of luck!

@@alexjr977 Thank you so much !!

Thanks for the tip :)

Rebecca Rodriguez okay, how do I do that?

Wouldn't the smoke move in relation to the muzzle then? EG the smoke would always be in your face no matter how you move, jump, strafe, or fall. Perhaps it would be better to speed up the emitter animation/reduce the lifetime? The Chicken_Master Muzzle Flash seems to be moving in slow motion compared to a real muzzle flash

that depends on how you did it. two ways this can be achieved, either spawn emitter attached or create a blueprint class with just a particle and use the attach to blueprint node and use access functions to change things as you wish. as far as the slow motion I have not seen this, and the relation to position can be fixed by using a random rotation on the emitter that is spawned at your location. if you use the blueprint method i advise you set size in blueprint to keep from having to cast to it later, that way you will on have to focus on spawning it. turn off auto activate in the blueprint and have it to activate on event begin play and destroy it after the time of the particle, use time or a delay.

When you import the .fbx animation, there should be an option to select a Skeletal. You can just set it to the swat skeleton. Everything else should automatically configure. Hope this helps :)

go to mixamo, upload your "SWAT" character, search for "Pistol". Make sure you check the Box [in place] Import into UE create BlendSpace like before. I created that BS first then switched to rifle animations later

You sir, are incredible. Thank you.

This is because the muzzle socket never actually rotates. The muzzle location moves, but the player rotates. So you need to find a way to set the location of the emitter to your character's rotation.

Rotation* of the emitter, sorry

for emmiter template in spawn emitter its chicken master muzzle flash thingy

CrowGuy don’t market your game as survival, the market is too overcrowded. You should make a shooter with survival aspects or something like that so people aren’t turned away.

just put a scene in front of the barrell of the gun works fine

same

Yep, I was saying same thing on previous parts :).

Divisor I know but its still not fixed so i also sad it

In your character blueprint create a branch from the pressed of your sprint input and set the condition as CrouchTrue, Leave the True empty and attatch the set sprintTrue into the false :) hope this helps

Caspar Nieuwland on the release node you make another branch with CrouchTrue as the condition. If true it will set max walk speed as 300, of false or will set max walk speed at 600

Are you using the same particle system as me, but if that is the case you can always destroy the component after you've spawned it? If you want a bit of extra help, I advice you checkout our Discord community which has over 3,000 over Unreal Engine 4 developers! discord.gg/hs37bev

Virtus set the rotation to muzzle rotation. However, the muzzle never rotates (of course not, the player rotates, the muzzle never moves relative to the gun!). So in order to get the muzzle flash emitter to rotate, you'll need to connect the rotate part to your character's rotation.

mine too did you find a fix?

@@ClutchtheGamer ur rotation is prob wrong make sure red is facing front of the gun

Did you double check in the Skeletal Mesh of the AK that the Muzzle Socket is placed at the end of the muzzle?

you need the correct muzzle name of your weapon

@@alexjr977 I asked 2 years ago :D

@@mahdihasankhan4419 i know i randomly copy and paste this and what is going on your itch.io page ?

Description

You should use P_spark burst

I am assuming you found the video but if you didn’t look through the playlist, I am pretty sure it was in the one where he made the gun auto

Pistol_BS Switching rifles is easy input key->flip flop-"insert rifle here" just repeat the AK equip video

Same, why wont it work with 4.21?

I know this is an old comment but it is because they removed the muzzle flash from the infinity blade fx pack.

well just watch again cause he does explain it

Yes i seen that now have absolutely no idea how missed it
