Third person cover controller

you should change in ThirdPersonInput.cs Class like that

Code (CSharp):

1.  public class ThirdPersonInput : MonoBehaviour
2.     {
3.    public bool isPause=false; // add this variable
4. private void Update()
5.         {
6.             if (Disabler != null && Disabler.activeSelf && !isPause) // change here
7.                 return;
8.  
9.             UpdateCamera();
10.             UpdateTarget();
11.             UpdateCustomActions();
12.             UpdateMovement();
13.             UpdateWeapons();
14.             UpdateReload();
15.             UpdateRolling();
16.             UpdateAttack();
17.             UpdateGrenade();
18.             UpdateCrouching();
19.             UpdateClimbing();
20.             UpdateCover();
21.             UpdateJumping();
22.  
23.             _controller.ManualUpdate();
24.         }
25. }

now when you open menu you just get ThirdPersonInput.cs class and make isPause=true.and when menu close make it True.isPause=false
I hope its Help you

 

@EduardasFunka Are you ever going to have a character setup wizard instead of having to tediously setup from an existing character?

 

yes same problem

 

Woot! Thx
I needed to change this

Code (CSharp):

1. (Disabler != null && Disabler.activeSelf && !isPause) // change here
2.                 return;

To this instead

Code (CSharp):

1. (Disabler != null && Disabler.activeSelf || isPause == true) // change here
2.                 return;

And it worked

 

its in plans for quality of life features. But it's not a high priority now. We thought you guys will customize it for your game.

 

maybe you should do a poll about this? I think more people are interested than you think myself for that matter i'm very interested

 

I did that on my patreon page.

 

oopppsss... I missed that Voted for "Quality of life (speedup)"

 

I started a character setup wizard yesterday. Here is the start of it. Feedback and help welcome: https://github.com/kristiandelay/Third-Person-Cover-Shooter-Template-Character-Tool



I plan on adding attaching of weapons next, they will be populated from a user generated prefab weapon list.

once that is finished, i will add an ai checkbox to automate adding the ai scripts.

I havent gone to bed yet, i wrote this over an all nighter so sorry for lack of better error handling.

Suggestions comments welcome.

Cheers enjoy!

 

Hah very nice.

 

Don't like the pink. JK

 

I was hoping to have a little help on this script and maybe we can all use it.
The camera clips through the players head when it gets too close and therefore does not look too appealing. The attached script is supposed to create a Lerped fade based on the camera distance to the player, instead the player just quickly fades out. The video shows what's happening and the script which shows a feeble attempt at the Lerp. Sorry about the jitter, that's the recording software.

In the script
"FadeAt" represents the distance at which the camera is supposed to begin its fade.
"MinOpacity" represents the minimum Alpha value that will be Lerped to (i.e. 0 == invisible)

Note: This script works good with the Standard shaders just not the Legacy ones.

Any ideas, help would be great.

 

I think what's happening here is with your alpha unless you present it as a fraction it jumps from 0 to 1 so if you want it tonlerp you need to have it hold a value like this col.a = .1f/255f then similar on your max.
I don't know why Unity does it this way but I had to do that as a work around for my night vision script. I'm on my phone so I can't come up with a working example but give that a shot

 

Still working it. Just making things worse though; this is more of a CPU hog than anything. There should be a shader solution I am just no good with 'em

 

Bahah i knew someone was gonna say something about the pink

 

Hi, guys. I recently bought this asset and I am enjoying it so far. I am using a mobile character and controls in a nearly empty scene. When I drop a zombie enemy prefab in, he seems to behave normally until he sees me. At this time he closes to within about 4 meters and then circles me forever. His FighterBrain sets the state to assault and on the next frame it goes to circle. When circle finishes, this repeats - back to assault for one frame and then circle. In the Prototype Scene that comes with the asset, the zombies function normally. I tried using the cowboy from that scene with a zombie from that scene in a new scene, with mobile controls, and I still just get circling. Any ideas? Thanks.

 

did you rebake the navmesh ? if that won't work try the other way around
try to import the mobile player and controller to the zombie example scene
1-open the zombie example , delete the player prefab and all the unwanted stuff
2- drag and drop the mobile example scene in the Hierarchy menu
3-grab the mobile controlls and UI and the player and drop them in the zombie example scene

it could be anything from player tag , to actor side script ... ect

 

In my research through this forum, I saw this:
"We are not using Navmesh Agents as those have their own movement controls and physics."
And somehow I read that as "We are not using navmeshes..." so I didn't go down that path (pun not intended).
Anyway, yes, I just needed a navmesh baked. Thanks for the quick reply. I guess I am used to navmesh agents that will warn you if there is no navmesh and they won't walk around at all. These guys seemed to work fine until they got close to my character.
Thanks again.

 

Hey, I would like to know if there is a camera shake component on projectile impacts and explosions. I didnt see anything of the sort in the documentation. Thanks

 

Easy peasy actually. Let me pull up my way right fast:
Most of thats already built into the camera script , you just need to tell it what to do.

On what ever your using add:
Using CoverShooter;

then add these variables to your script:
[Tooltip("Camera shake duration when exploded.")]
public float ShakeDuration = 0.5f;
[Tooltip("Camera shake intensity when close to the camera.")]
public float ShakeIntensity = 100;

And in your collision method:
ThirdPersonCamera.Shake(transform.position, ShakeIntensity, ShakeDuration);

Here is how I call my shake with explosions:

Code (CSharp):

1. void ExplosionWork(Vector3 explosionPoint)
2.         {
3.          
4.             hitColliders = Physics.OverlapSphere(explosionPoint, blastRadius, explosionLayers);
5.              
6.                 foreach (Collider hitCol in hitColliders)
7.                 {
8.                     if (hitCol.GetComponent<Rigidbody>()!= null)
9.                     {
10.                         hitCol.GetComponent<Rigidbody>().isKinematic = false;
11.                         hitCol.GetComponent<Rigidbody>().AddExplosionForce(explosionPower,explosionPoint,blastRadius,UpwardForce,ForceMode.Impulse);
12.                         hitCol.GetComponent<CharacterHealth>().Deal(ExplodyDMG);
13.                         ThirdPersonCamera.Shake(transform.position, ShakeIntensity, ShakeDuration);
14.                     }
15.                 }
16.         }

** hint hint its the last line.

 

Thanks a bunch!. Just to be clear, I put this script on the projectile collider or the prefab itself?

 

In my case I put it on my explosion prefab.sonyoull want it on your collider but you'll need to alter the code to meet your requirements. Mine was case specific

 

Is there a way to set spawn points for the player? I'd like to set up checkpoints where the player would respawn if killed rather than starting from the very beginning .

Hello everyone， I've purchased this asset.
I am reading and learning the scripts. IK part is difficult to understand.
I'm confused about aimintensity using in IK.UpdateAim().
Can anyone tell me what aimintensity or handintensity means? What's the purpose of using these 'intensity' ?

 

Hello sir.

How can I adjust the crosshair while character moving?

As you can see in the video the crosshair scale up too much. Where can I adjust it?

 

Finished up Weapon Scriptables, AI Scriptables and Weapon Inventory Scriptables, all with respective prefab generators.

Next steps will be to clean up, comment and add better error handling.

Cheers

 

Look at the posting above with the weapon setup that @StaticWave is putting together. On the far right is the Custom Crosshair settings. Here you just adjust "High Angle", "Scale" etc. not sure which just play around.

 

Hello!

Is there any way to modify the cover script so that if the play approaches a wall (low or high), he will automatically climb/vault the wall without going into a cover pose first? I will have some levels with no enemies so I don't need the player to take cover.

Thanks,
rich

 

EduardasFunka,before i release the rest of the tool i need to ask if its ok. I have created scritpable objects based on some of the core scripts. I copied and pasted just the public variables from some of the core classes. I did this so the variables matched and caused as little confused as possible. The tools code does not expo any functionality just variable names. As soon as i can get a go ahead ill push out the finished tool to git and make a tutorial.

Cheers!

 

Maybe you can use this project to add the jump for the low covers.
https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/tutorials/mecanim-gdc2013-sample-project-9896

 

Btw that looks awesome!
did you do the artwork yourself?

-rich

 

Yes do it.

 

OK here it is!!
https://github.com/kristiandelay/Third-Person-Cover-Shooter-Template-Character-Tool

I've converted all the default values to use scriptable objects, this allowed me to get around the need to create the resources folder and move folders around in the base CoverShooter project.

I have already set up basic default scriptable objects to help get started using the tool right away. Give the scriptables folder a look and create or configure your own scriptable objects.

Here are the new generator windows


And here are the new scriptable object options



The quick general use steps are to use the character generator to set up the basic locamotion controls.
Once the character is set up, use the weapon prefab generator to create all your new weapon prefabs.
After you save your newly created weapon prefabs you can use the weapon inventory to attach the new prefabs to the characters left and right hands.
At this point you still need to position the weapon models. I know, I know... why can't the weapons be magically positioned for you?!

After you have configured the weapon inventory scriptable object you can now use the AI generator on the newly created character prefab, the generator will disable the input and let the AI take over the character. =)

That is the quick and dirty, written and video tutorials to come!

if you have questions before i get to the readme and tutorial video ask away.

Cheers!

 

Appreciate the work, will definitely save time. Thanks!

 

Impressive! Thank you.

 

Amazing stuff. Maybe we need to release community patch with stuff you guys sharing. Not sure if it not against asset store rules. You could push to GitHub your stuff and I will push it to store.

 

look your weapon script and also look you camera

 

You can use the code that is in the github link above EduardsFunka. Im not sure what github project you want me to push it too. If you post a link i can open a pull request or something.

Cheers

 

Thank you, sir, and yes. for all of the environment parts.

 

Thank you, sir, the problem is not that part sir.

When I modifying the low, high, or scaling it also affect the shooting crosshair too. I just simply need to scale down just while moving not shooting.

- TPS
- Gun
- BaseGun
- other scripts

I get in and hit "Ctrl+F" and search for them but I can't find it. I think I'm looking in the wrong place somehow.

 

great work @StaticWave thank you very much!

 

Can I ask why you have 2 scripts to control mouse lock?
ExitToEscape.cs and the MouseLock.cs script
The one on the player and the one on the camera...
I just merged them both with zero issue. so it doesn't seem to impede functionality.
I noticed when i was trying to disable the mouselock and it kept getting reset in a Update.

 

@EduardasFunka

 

If you look all it does is call Application.Quit(); when the user pressed escape. I think the intent here is to not use the escape to exit script in production, it seemed to me that it was just for exiting the demo when you run the build outside of the editor.

 

You know what would be great! Is a collider/cover setup. I have only been able to do it twice by sheer luck. Funny how on a Cover Shooter platform it's so difficult to set cover. Anyway, a menu to setup Cover would really kill!

 

Just moved to 2018.3 . The root motion is now required but since when jumping my character stays in the air and landing very slowly. Any fix or tweak for that ? thanks !!!

 

and there's a bug on the [Physics.PhysX] RigidBody::setRigidBodyFlag: kinematic bodies
https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/is...re-not-supported-error-thrown-during-playmode
Fixed on 2019 Beta
i would strongly recommend 2017.4

 

Man this took a lot of work.
Iv got a Menu working, Thermal \ Night Vision
Drone Controls....
Lordy...This template just gets better and better as you build on it.

 

I was trying to mix the TPCS character with PuppetMaster (https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/physics/puppetmaster-48977). Adding PuppetMaster seems like it should work and initial tests were encouraging, but some movement is messed up, eg. side strafing off A and D no longer works...... and perhaps more.
Puppetmaster generates a new root object for the ragdoll when it starts and I am wondering if this is the issue with the movement? does having the TPCS character as a child object mess up movement? and if so, is it an easy fix?
Thanks.

 

@EduardasFunka ,

So more insights into how controls are muddled with puppetmaster (note same results with cowboy prefab) - i have for example lost strafing when in high cover or not in cover, but in low cover strafing is fine - does this help tell what is wrong? in this video, puppet is active for the first 30s then switched off: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1CtoQJyNvRudssmutJXcBtURZws-AqAnr

Additionally, if standing free, by rotating the camera quickly i can get momentary strafing with A and D suggesting perhaps that when the effect of the rotation is finished, the input is being suppressed?

Any ideas please how to resolve this?
