The DEFINITIVE FPS Tutorial for Godot 4.X (FULL COURSE) 

This is a compilation of all my tutorials so far combined into one. So you don't have to go hunt down the other videos.

I have been following your tutorials for some time. Thank you for everything

Thank you so much for your work, Know that you helped your example a lot because you gave a general picture of how to do it! Your channel deserves a lot more subscribers and views!

Wow, I didn't know there was a compiled version of the videos. I'm so glad I found it! TY :)

you are a life saver, this channel deserves more suscribers.

I love this because its not super beginner but does a very good job of showing what to do and why.

truly a giga chad, well done chaff

For everyones sake, I think you should add this to the description of the video, or edit your pinned comment and add this: Add a tag of which type your variables is, it really help soooo much when coding in godot. For example. var Current_Weapon : Weapon_Resource = null By adding : Weapon_Resource, godot will now show you auto completion everytime you refer to this variable. :)

Thank you for share ❤

Thank you so much

a lot of insight while watching, Thanks for the gold!

Very good idea🤩🤩 this is a conglomeration of individual episodes or no???

AMAZING

Thanks bro

Something I would like to see added to this video is for the weapon pick up section. In the video the script takes a selection of variables that you have to hardcode in for each spawnable item. I would recommend changing this to accept the resources directly, as it prevents potential user error. The change is as simple as replacing the @export variable declarations with @export weapon: Resource. Then you can access each variable with weapon.ammo or weapon.weapon_name. Hope this helps!

17:54 yeah obviously. SPIN FOR THE WIN!!!

Good vid

Amazing video, a few thoughts: - how could I go about starting or switching to unarmed? - how I could implement picking other things up (swords) and using them

THANKS a very good and complete tutorial very well explained don't copy paste you learn how to do

would you be able to do a tutorial on Red Orchestra style freeaim deadzone (where the gun moves separate from your camera) ?

25:31 - Saving my spot for later.

"if it's working, it's working..even though the code is messed up" :P

Not sure if you ever cover it in another video, but how would you go about adding a bullet hole decal system to replace the hit markers? I've seen other people use a ray cast as a child of the camera node, and from there they get the collision normal and rotate the decal accordingly. The ray you created in this system detects intersections using code so it's a bit different, but would bullet hole decals it still be possible?

Excelent tutorial. Coukd you do the same but for 2d?. Thanks

* print with `print("Health is: ", health)` (instead of concatenating with +), then you dont have to do string(health)

Im so gonna watch this... just later

28:24 Hi, I was typing your code when out of nowhere on line 29 the message 'Invalid get index '0' (on base 'Array)' appears, what should I do?

Will you do enemies next?

I'm at the hitscan portion of the tutorial and am getting a weird issue (godot 4.2.1). Despite weapon range set to 2,000, I only get hit detection within like 3 meters. However, at ten meters away, I only get hit detection if I move my mouse over the target, but I only get one hit detection before I have to move my mouse again to get another. And If I WASD maneuver my reticle over the box, I dont get any more hits until I move my mouse. My code seems identical, but I'm prone to overlooking things. I'll continue with the tutorial and maybe you'll address it at some point or I figure it out. I'll update this comment.

Hello Chaff! My hitscan and projectiles weapons are not shooting to the center of the screen, they go straight from weapon position. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

I didn't see you show or answer this question, what are the layer and mask for the characterbody? I think that my bullet projectile is somehow colliding with my player, and I don't want that to happen.

i really need help at 40:20 the game keep crashing , says breakpoint at function ready, i don't know what is wrong, i did everything just like you but... also i deleted everything from the hud script to signals and disconnected them and did everything again and still crashing i have godot 4.2

I have a problem that the scene is restarted, but the value in the weapon, for example, the current ammo or reserve ammo are not returned

great video and lesson thanks, but I have an interesting problem. I noticed that bullets (projectiles of a weapon firing projectiles) They repeat some of the character 's Input when they lie on the ground after a shot , like jumping and walking . I have no idea why at all.

I don't expect you to reply, and I do apologise if the answer is in the video - but I'm just asking ahead because I won't be doing this anytime soon so I'm just asking incase you can answer. Does the FPS system work with other camera/movement systems or is it somehow crucially tied to the one you made in this video?

I get the error "Invalid index type "String for a base of type "Array"." for the Change_Weapon function: func Change_Weapon(weapon_name: String): Current_Weapon = Weapon_Inventory[weapon_name]

does the gun recieve shadows or are you moving it out of the way when you walk too close to walls?

im done with camera and movement, but whenever i run it, it says not responding. anything i can do to fix this?

Hey im javing trouple importing your zip file to a new project of mine. I recently doscovered your project file template online and relized it is perfect for what i want. I download it and go into godot then i import the zip file as a new peoject all the files load on but the project doesnt load it says missing dependency of character controller. Plz help.

hey chaff! this is a really helpful tutorial, but I'm having one issue. for the hud code, I followed what you had coded closely but a issue has arisen. The Ammo label has a breakpoint. I do not know what it is, or why it isn't showing the ammo. If you need me to, I can post the code its self and maybe you can help fix the issue. I know being a dev and a youtube can be quite busy and I understand if you cannot reply to this comment immediately or at all. Anyways, hope you had a wonderful holiday.

How did you make the map)

HitScan hits itself what do i have to do

how would you add full body models for multiplayer?

Guys if you add this line to the end of the pick up detection: if body.pick_Up_Type == "Ammo" && weapon_Stack.find(body.weapon_Name,0) != -1: body.queue_free() then it will remove the clip, after the pick up and you won't pick up the clip, if you don't have the gun for it.

I am using godot 4.2 and no script templates showed up when I followed your instructions from the start. Any clue what I can do?

At around 39:24 I got a problem. When using the signal I get this error after launching the game: Invalid call. Nonexistent function 'set_text' in base 'Nil'. Any ideas?

Hi There, what is the license for the code / tutorial etc? Just before I start! Thanks

Help, I followed everything in the tutorial but for some reason I always hit the player CharacterBody3D as the first and only collider. So the Hitscan and projectiles dont work...

How do I find out how you made the initial world

MOUSE SENSISITIVY

I did all the things for camera and keep getting errors for some reason even though I copied you. I have tried so many tutorials for camera mouse and can never get it for some reason.

48:04

At 9:33 i get an error in line 23 and 30. I did exactly what you did

Player fall through the floor. Why?

Wish someone did this for C# lol I have the worst time using C# in Godot, I just can't fucking figure out half the shit. I might have to stick with Unity or Unreal :| but I don't want to

im struggling getting it to boot after adding the weapon manager. I am getting a breakpoint error. I think I Have everything setup correctly. my animations are in a library so it would be p90/activate. Breakpoints are at line 20 so "Initialise(Start_Weapons)" and another at "Current_weapon = Weapon_list[Weapon_Stack[0]]"

hitscan is no working

why not use deg _to_rad ( )

Pls help. This is my weapon manager script var current_weapon = null var weapon_stack = [] # An array of weapons currently held by the Player var weapon_indicator = 0 var next_weapon: String var weapon_list = {} @export var weapon_resources: Array[Weapon_Resource] @export var start_weapons: Array[String] func _ready(): !Initialize(start_weapons) # Enter the state machine func Initialize(_start_weapons: Array): # Creating a dictionary to refer to our weapons for weapon in weapon_resources: weapon_list[weapon.weapon_name] = weapon for i in _start_weapons: weapon_stack.push_back(i) # Add out start weapons !current_weapon = weapon_list[weapon_stack[0]] # Set the first weapon in the stack to current enter() func enter(): # Call when first "entering" into a weapon animation_player.queue(current_weapon.Active_Anim) func exit(): # In order to change weapons first call exit pass Whenever I try to run the game I get the error Invalid get index ‘blasterB’ (on base: ‘Dictionary’). My errors are on the lines that start with ! 28:58

porque cuando roto la camara me da error en transform.basis = Basis() MainCamera.transform.basis = Basis()
