  1. For some reason, the Attack Montage is not replicating as expected. If I am the server and I try to hit the client then the montage does not play on the client (although the actual hit executes). Do you have any idea how to fix that?

  4. Hey, I was wondering if you can make a GAS tutorial combined with your shooting AI tutorial, I would like to see your approach in triggering a rifle automatic fire ability from the AI, not connected to players input binding. Thanks!

  5. Hi looking for help with your video, at 9:35 you right click and Create Method Implementations but on mine I do not have that option. Am I missing something? I'm new to c++ and visual studios.

  6. If you get the errors "illegal use of this type as an expression"
    and 'DOREPLIFETIME_CONDITION_NOTIFY': identifier not found

    You can fix this by including "Net/UnrealNetwork.h" in your attribute set header.

    I may have done some include order incorrectly, but I had these errors and they were solved by including that.

  10. I can not keep upi with this, are you using short cut keys to do these or just coping pasting from an already finished project? I am having to pause every 10 seconds to try figure out if I am suppose to type it out of if there is a shortcut button i missed in the video.

  13. I mean I enjoyed the video… But there's only 15 to 20 minutes of c++ and everything else is blueprints haha… It's kinda difficult to unit test blueprints… It would be helpful if those could be done on c++

  14. The tutorial starts off very erratic and confusing but then gets strong. The boiler plate may be boiler plate but is quite important if you want to do a lot of the tasks you did in blueprints with c++ as well. Overall, good tutorial.

  15. Thank you for the time you put in to this. It's information that I'm having trouble finding. However, when I see at about 4.5 minutes in that we're using some base code my mind immediately disconnects and I think "ok, what parts am I missing to get to this point." You've been doing this for a while and you are doing pretty well, so I feel like I probably shouldn't be giving you advice, but, in general, with courses/tutorials you should always start with a blank project. Having assets in place doesn't distract much because most people will understand that those are just meshes to import etc, but when you have classes and header etc that you don't show how to bring in, it causes a disconnect. Maybe those classes are just that and they just need to be created, but maybe they needed to be generated somewhere so that they are properly registered; who knows. Just a suggestion. Thanks again for all the information.

  16. For anyone looking for the project at the beginning of the video, it is in the github project Reuben left in the description, "Traneks GAS Documentation Project".

  20. Loving the videos, and thank you for creating them!
    One thing I would love to see for future videos / things that would really help people following along, pleeeeeaaaaaase, please, do the includes first.
    That way when manually typing and following along, there aren't a ton of issues with auto complete, and errors.

  22. According to the Tranek docs you linked, when the ASC lives on the pawn, the functions to override are PossessedBy on the pawn, and AcknowledgePossession on the controller. Am I misreading that?

    Edit: Did you have to use the Montage Anim Notify? My notifies weren't going through until I used that instead of the base class Anim Notify.

  24. Very informative video but I went to check out the project files to avoid pausing your video constantly and its just the normal 3rd person c++ starting template?

  28. 9:34
    How is he opening those options? Is there a button u have to press while rightclicking? and can I even do it in VS code, since that is what im using.

  29. Can somebody tell me how he is just pasting code into the project?
    He did it multiple times but here is an example: 8:36
    I'm sorry if this is something basic, but before this I only used Blueprints.

  30. Hey man, thanks for your tutorial, very helpful to get into it. I tried to do it without the Input Enum, so that an Ability can be triggered from the BP-side of the character. But it just won't trigger the Ability and ALWAYS returns false. It just doesn't want to activate the ability. Any ideas?

  31. Hey, this is fantastic, this helped give me a head start on understand how this system actually works. One thing I couldn't figure out how to do after watching many times, is getting abilities to be activated from one client, and it's effects be replicated to another client. In your system, a client's ability is replicated to the server, but doesn't replicate to other clients. I tried playing around with the settings, and doing a few google searches but couldn't come to a conclusion (yet).

    Does the Gameplay Ability code need to be changed to account for all clients, or is it a simple tick box or something I've completely overlooked, or does it go deeper than that? Thanks!
