[RELEASED] Emerald AI 3.2 (New Sound Detection) - The Ultimate Universal AAA Quality AI Solution

@BHS I'm still using 2017.x Unity. So please make sure the upload supports this release thanks.

 

Emeral AI is working fine. Issue is with player for ranged enemy. Ranged enemy cant shoot at player if they cant directly see the colliders. Player controller breaks when I add collider on root but AI works fine.In other case AI dont shoot when colliders is on the bones. If you want to check, I am using Little dragon Sea by Malbers Animations.

 

Yes, the integration tutorial video can be found here:

 

I'm submitting 2.3 with a minimum version of Unity 2017.1.

 

Thanks for providing more information. I'd have to test out this out with Emerald AI myself to get a better understanding of exactly what's happening. I own Irval the Wyvern by Malbers Animations and I think it uses the same character controller. When I get the chance, I will test this out and figure out a solution for you.

 

Awesome - thanks!!

 

Followed the instructions and copied over the code snippets. My creature can detect the player and attacks but cant get damage to player. i have configures animation events for my creature as well. I can damage the AI though

 

Thanks BHS and yes the current root motions work awesome! First time worked with AI this slow. Hurt dude dragging leg but neat to see his feet aligning to limp down major sloped hill. lol

 

Figured it out, forgot to add a line of code. sorry for beign a pain

 

Great to hear you figured it out. No worries

 

Hi All - Anyone know of the complete list of "Function" calls for Events? WalkFootstepSound, SendEmeraldDamage, Etc.
Whats the Function call for "Interact" Event ?

 

The complete list of API can be found here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ns8m7Ol_gaKeYJ3YbaRjDy09xG98UoIXKCaWLGJeg74/edit

The Reach Destination Event is called when an AI arrives at its destination if that's what you are looking for.

 

Perfect! thanks BHS

 

Sorry for all the tech help Is it possible to have the death con tore with the terrain? Using Humanoid, root Motion, Final Ik. Definitely something Im doing wrong or missing. Thanks!

 

No worries

The death animation will contour with the terrain if the Align AI feature is enabled. However, when using Final IK, you should have this feature disabled so the animation won’t align. What you could do is use a ragdoll instead or call some code using the On Death Event to align the AI when it dies.

 

I'm still trying tying to get my enemies from pushing my player around. It's actually happening after the first attack. Once the player has been detected the enemy runs towards the player, attacks, pauses then continues to run forward pushing my player until the enemy decides to attack again (which isn't necessarily right away). I tried increasing the attack distance, the behavior remains the same. Any help would be appreciated.

 

This is a little bit of a bug with version 2.2. However, I’ve fixed it with version 2.3 so it’s no longer an issue.

 

I need help with the line of sight detection. I can't get my ai to detect my ufps player with the line of sight, but it works when target detection. I am also having an issue with my ai not using the ranged weapon. I sent a message through the discord chat. Anyone know how to fix this issue?

 

Perfect! I'm looking forward to 2.3!

 

Did you disable the Has Collision Trigger as stated in the video tutorial here?

 

Hey everyone,

Emerald AI 2.3 has been submitted and is awaiting approval! I’m hoping it will be accepted tomorrow or Tuesday.

 

AWESOME!!!

 

But to disable this Has Collision, the player will not be able to use other systems associated with this. For example, an elevator that only works with Has Collision will stop working



Will there be dynamic motion support in this version? it just stops me from buying a few things. one of the most important is the dynamic search of the path.

 

Fantastic. I am looking forward to this one a lot.

 

So 2.4 highlights!!?

 

And will there be documentation/tutorial updates, hopefully?

 

Probably after a Unistorm update, first things first .. get used to 2.3

 

refresh...refresh...refresh...refresh... lol

 

LOL been doing same thing. refresh...refresh..refresh....

 

This is more of a limitation with UFPS as the extra collider makes it difficult to detect external raycasts. The biggest problem with this is that it also has the same layer and tag so there's no way for the Emerald AI raycast to differentiate what's the player object and the extra collider. Trying to switch the layer of the extra collider manually doesn't work as this is overridden on Start.

I'll look into a work around for this though. What you could do is just attach the EmeraldAIPlayerDamage script to the extra collider instead and have it call the UFPS damage directly. This may be a workaround, but it's just an idea and I haven't had a chance to test it.

 

I'm going to work a quick update for UniStorm before I get started on 2.4.

 

Yes, I'm putting one together now on Google Docs. I'll post a link to it here when it's done.

 

Sounds great. Got to show Unistorm and Crux some love too!

 

Yup! I plan on adding biome weather to UniStorm with its next update.

 

Sounds awesome - can you include ambient sounds for each biome based on the weather state? This could be linked to Emerald in some way to change the behavior of AI in Emerald.

 

I haven't fully dived into how exactly I'm going to handle all of the biome features, but I like the idea of having customizable settings, such as ambient sounds, that can be customized per biome.

 

Hello,
after updating to version 2.3 I get this error:
Emerald AI\Scripts\Player\Editor\PlayerHealthEditor.cs(74,48): error CS1729: 'AudioClip' does not contain a constructor that takes 0 arguments.

 

The same thing happens to me

How to solve?

 

Not where I can pull down the latest, but I know Unity 2019.2 doesn't use that method of AudioClip constructing. It now uses AudioClip.Create(string clipName, int lengthSampe, int soundChannel, int soundFrequency, bool stream). So you'd replace "new AudioClip()" with something like "AudioClip.Create("whateverName",0, 1,44100, false)". Give that a shot, and see.

 

Same here.

 

Fine thanks.

 

Hey everyone,

I’m looking into the error some of you are having. I’ll have a solution posted here and an updated submitted soon.

 

@Monil @SilverHelmStudios @marco-maceratesi @unicat

Hey everyone,

I've submitted an update for a quick fix for this issue.

To fix this issue now, open up the PlayerHealthEditor script and change:

Code (CSharp):

1. self.hitSounds.Add(new AudioClip());

To:

Code (CSharp):

1. self.hitSounds.Add(null);

Save it when you're done and the error will be fixed.

 

Thank you for the fix. Here another small one:

 

You're welcome.

Thanks for the bug report. I'll resubmit it with a fix for the Ability Editor. This is an issue related to using 4k monitors. I thought I had it applied to the AbilityEditor.

This can be fixed by opening the EmeraldAIAbilityEditor script and replacing all instances of:

Code (CSharp):

1. GUILayout.Width(90 * Screen.width / 100));

With:

Code (CSharp):

1. GUILayout.Width(90 * Screen.width / Screen.dpi));

 

Hey loving the asset so far. So I'm adding emote animations, and it says there's no cap, but after I add 3 the + symbol disappears, preventing me from adding more. Is there a reason for this?

Also I saw in one update you put a minimum wander distance, I'm not seeing a setting for this anywhere. Where is this located? Couldn't find it in the documentation

 

Hi there, Best AI ever a lot of versatility with amazing behaviors. I'm facing an issue with sounds, i'v setup events in walk animation and also assigned sound in FootstepSound tab, still i cannot hear any footsteps and same issue with attack sounds. However, Die sound is working perfectly. What could be the case.
Sometimes footstep sound plays once or twice while attacking but that's it. Maybe something with distance. Btw i follwed the footstep sounds tutorial you provided.

 

I'm interested in this as well. Taking advantage of Emerald AI's complete system while using Behavior Designer for more specific behaviors seems perfect. I'll try it out at some point and let you know if there's any bugs.

 

Has anyone had a chance to use Final IK & Puppet Master with Emerald AI instead of the default ragdoll setup? I haven't had a chance to try it out myself yet, but I plan to soon.
