Making decals.

-
I have also made a decal in Unreal today. I did this by getting my basic decal.

Then I moved it into the Unreal engine.








After this, I then made it into a material and made it translation, placed it on the wall and ran the game.

Unit 8: Problems with the Climbing System, again.

I was having problems with getting the character to climb all of the walls, but that didn't take long to fix, when I tested it, I could climb all of the walls. however, after fixing that I realised that now had a larger problem, something that I didn't have to deal with in my last project. As the character climbs up one wall, it recognises the ledge about the one it needs to climb. Here is an example of it.  To fix this I began to troubleshoot my game. I try a few things first, I had to find the problem that was causing it, so the logical source of the problem would the ledge tracer. So to check if this was the problem I put the ledge tracer to be on in debug mode, persistently. Then I started the game and saw that it was triggering with the blocks above me. So be I began changing variables in the blueprint that relate to the ledge hight tracer and look at where it moves the tracer ( the green and red sphere). Then through trial and err...

Troubleshooting and Bug Fixing

Yesterday I came back after the half term with a game that didn't even run anymore. I had multiple problems with syntax and the code being completely wrong. So for most of the morning, I sat and looked through all of my code and events for this one little thing. I used the debug mode to help me with my search. the error was one wrong number as can be seen below, this number is looking for an argument in script command.  As you can see the if statement is looking for argument 0, but so is text, and "spd" needs to be an integer. So I changed it then proceeded to carry on with my work.

Undertale Research  When I was playing through Undertale I decided to do a pacifist run, meaning I couldn't hurt a "monster" in the entire game. The point of such a playthrough is to cause the player to learn about and develop feelings for the "bosses" in the game, who turn into their friend rather than always being the conventional foe. The final boss is an old friend (sorry I'm trying not to ruin the game) who tries everything in his power to defeat you, but in this run, no matter what, you stay determined and continue to try and help him. He keeps attacking you and there's nothing you can do about it, getting to a point your health goes into fractions of 1 (another interesting and unique aspect of a game) This makes the player feel helpless and in that moment I realised that games can make the player feel emotions through gameplay. Many games in the past have done this before. For example, in mega man x (I know I keep bringing it up) at ...
