UFPS : Ultimate FPS [ RELEASED ]

Can't change muzzle flash position on Vp_FP Weapon Shooter script in Unity 5, following this tutorial

.

Is this a bug?

 

I just tried it, and it worked for me using Unity 5.3 and UFPS 1.5.2. Make sure your dynamic objects like the muzzleflash prefab and weapon aren't flagged as static. I've also noticed a bug in Unity 5.3 where the meta files become unreadable for no rhyme nor reason why and requires restarting the editor frequently.

 

If you just want a 0,1 bool of whether or not the projectile is spawning, you could try this. This will be true when the fire rate/delay allows it, and I believe it's the same as if (FPPlayer.Attack.Active + weaponShooter.ProjectileSpawnDelay + timer, etc..

Code (CSharp):

1. protected vp_FPPlayerEventhandler = null;
2.  
3. void Awake()
4. {
5. m_player = FindObjectOfType<vp_FPPlayerEventHandler>();
6. }
7.  
8. void Update()
9. {
10. if (m_Player.Attack.TryStart()
11. {
12. //timers met, can fire
13. }
14. if (m_Player.Fire.Try())
15.   {
16. //fired the weapon
17.   }
18. }

or the old way

Code (CSharp):

1. if (true == weaponShooter.TryFire())
2.         {
3. //spawning projectile
4.         }

 

Is it possible to make HP regain, like modern FPS. ufps - 1.5.2

 

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2.  
3. public class HealthRegen : MonoBehaviour
4. {
5.   public bool canRegen = false;
6.   public float regenSpeed = 0.1f;
7.   protected vp_FPPlayerEventHandler m_Player = null;
8.  
9.   void Awake()
10.   {
11.   m_Player = FindObjectOfType<vp_FPPlayerEventHandler>();
12.   }
13.  
14.   void Update()
15.   {
16.   if (canRegen)//regens when true
17.   {
18.   if (m_Player == null || m_Player.Dead.Active) return;
19.   float regenHealth = Mathf.Lerp(m_Player.Health.Get(), m_Player.MaxHealth.Get(), Time.deltaTime * regenSpeed);//Lerp from currrenthealth to maxHealth
20.   m_Player.Health.Set(regenHealth);//the magic
21.   }
22.   }
23. }
24.  

 

Goofy thx for reply but were should i put this code.. I m very poor in c#

 

Just make a new script called HealthRegen.cs and attach it to the Player, although it'll work attached to anything that's activeInHierarchy. Enable the canRegen checkbox in the inspector to have it regen or uncheck it to disable regeneration. Call FindObjectOfType<HealthRegen>().canRegen = true; from an external script to enable or disable regeneration at runtime. Increase or decrease regenSpeed to make it regen slower or faster. 0.1 will regen over apoximately 10 seconds and 1 will regen within 1 second.

 

In vp_FPCamera.cs

The use of m_root should be changed to the property Root.

Code (CSharp):

1.     protected override void OnEnable()
2.     {
3.         base.OnEnable();
4.         vp_TargetEvent<float>.Register(Root, "CameraBombShake", OnMessage_CameraBombShake);
5.         vp_TargetEvent<float>.Register(Root, "CameraGroundStomp", OnMessage_CameraGroundStomp);
6.     }
7.  
8.  
9.     /// <summary>
10.     ///
11.     /// </summary>
12.     protected override void OnDisable()
13.     {
14.         base.OnDisable();
15.         vp_TargetEvent<float>.Unregister(Root, "CameraBombShake", OnMessage_CameraBombShake);
16.         vp_TargetEvent<float>.Unregister(Root, "CameraGroundStomp", OnMessage_CameraGroundStomp);
17.     }

 

Root returns m_Root for caching the PlayerEventHandler. It's probably a requirement of delegate callback functions in vp_Component for multiple Root instances in Multiplayer.

Code (CSharp):

1. public Transform Root
2.    {
3.      get
4.      {
5.        if (m_Root == null)
6.          m_Root = transform.root;
7.        return m_Root;
8.      }
9.    }

 

The problem is by not calling Root -> m_Root does not get initialized thus causing an error.

In vp_FPCamera.cs

If that is the case, then this is a better choice.

Code (CSharp):

1.     protected override void OnEnable()
2.     {
3.         base.OnEnable();
4.  
5.         if (m_Root == null)
6.              m_Root = transform.root;
7.  
8.         vp_TargetEvent<float>.Register(Root, "CameraBombShake", OnMessage_CameraBombShake);
9.         vp_TargetEvent<float>.Register(Root, "CameraGroundStomp", OnMessage_CameraGroundStomp);
10.     }
11.  
12.  
13.     /// <summary>
14.     ///
15.     /// </summary>
16.     protected override void OnDisable()
17.     {
18.         base.OnDisable();
19.  
20.         if (m_Root == null)
21.              m_Root = transform.root;
22.  
23.         vp_TargetEvent<float>.Unregister(Root, "CameraBombShake", OnMessage_CameraBombShake);
24.         vp_TargetEvent<float>.Unregister(Root, "CameraGroundStomp", OnMessage_CameraGroundStomp);
25.     }

Edit: (after thinking about this a little)

I don't see how using it as a delegate would do anything different. Its contained within the component and the root would always be the same.
Also if what your saying is true then there is no need for Root and m_Root, one should always use transform.root and save the variable creation.

 

Do they have a different place to put information other than here?

Hi again,

So I am running into a new problem while trying to implement 1st/3rd person. The character I have for my player is setup with multiple meshes and they cannot be turned into a single mesh. I am using one of the MCS characters which use separate meshes for the body and clothes. I tried using MeshBaker to turn them into a single mesh but it looks really bad. My next plan was to have 2 body models, one that is just the torso and legs for 1st person and then the full 3rd person rig. When the player switches between 1st and 3rd the bodies turn on/off as needed. I tried entering this code into the vp_FPInput.cs

Code (CSharp):

1. // toggle 3rd person mode
2.         if (vp_Input.GetButtonDown("Toggle3rdPerson"))
3.             FPPlayer.CameraToggle3rdPerson.Send();
4.  
5.  
6.  
7.         if (toggle3rdPerson = false)
8.         {
9.             pbh = GetComponent<PlayerBodyHolder>();
10.             pbh.playerBodyFirstPerson.SetActive(false);
11.             pbh.playerBodyThirdPerson.SetActive(true);
12.             toggle3rdPerson = true;
13.         }
14.         else if (toggle3rdPerson = true)
15.         {
16.             pbh.playerBodyFirstPerson.SetActive(true);
17.             pbh.playerBodyThirdPerson.SetActive(false);
18.             toggle3rdPerson = false;
19.         }

That is going in the protected virtual void InputCamera() section.
With a new script on the body that just acts as a "Holder" for the models

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using System;
4. using System.Collections;
5.  
6. public class PlayerBodyHolder : MonoBehaviour
7. {
8.  
9.  
10.     public GameObject playerBodyFirstPerson;
11.     public GameObject playerBodyThirdPerson;
12.  
13.     // Use this for initialization
14.     void Start () {
15.    
16.     }
17.    
18.     // Update is called once per frame
19.     void Update () {
20.    
21.     }
22. }

but it keeps giving me errors in the pbh = GetComponent<PlayerBodyHolder>(); line.

Can someone help me out please. Or if there is a better option please let me know.

Thanks,
Mura

 

The simple answer is to use pbh = FindObjectOfType<PlayerBodyHolder>(); if you only have one instance of PlayerBodyHolder and PlayerBodyHolder isn't attached to the same GO as vp_FPInput but it also needs to be cached in Awake() or Start() GetComponent will look for PlayerBodyHolder on the same GameObject. GetComponentInChildren will look for it in all child GameObjects

 

Also, it's better not to rewrite the base classes. You could just put it into the PlayerBodyHolder scripts Update function
Edit: nvm I see you are deactivating the gameObject itself. This will cause problems since the shadow caster will only cast shadows of active objects.

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. These are not the codes you are looking for...
3.  

Just do it right the first time, one time and be done with it. Open the model in Max, extract the rig and delete the original rig. Select the main body mesh, select the edit mesh modifier and scroll down and click attach or attach list, then attach the other meshes to the body mesh, reapply the rig, apply a skin modifier to the new single mesh, click add, and select all the rig objects, done.

 

i am having a serious problem, in editor game runs very fine but when i export in apk on mobile its very slow..
on mobile main menu is ..ok. splash screen is ..ok but when level starts its very slow.. any gess how solve
Thanks in advance

 

@Goofy420 Awesome, thanks for the help. That worked great. Luckily my friend had Max so I got that taken care of.

Now for anyone, I have been trying to solve this one for days with no luck. I picked up the FPS weapons pack because of the animations. Is there any way to get the animations to work on my arms? I changed out the arms and re positioned everything. The gun still animates but the arms don't move. I have tried parenting the new arms to the old ones, just replacing the mesh.... but nothing seems to work. Anyone know of a guide or something for doing that because I can't seem to find anything.

Thanks.

 

Sounds like the new Animations are animating the mesh instead of the rig. Click on the arms in your scene and then open the Animation window under the Window tab and see what's turned red (Broken) or yellow (Missing). Then rename your Bip object to the missing object.

 

Run profiler and see how many Polys/Drawcalls are in your scene. It's not too difficult to reduce 1000 drawcalls to just a few using MeshBaker. I've done it myself and got a 1000 drawcall scene down to 50. You can use ProOptimizer to crunch the Polys using Max, or even better and free, use Mixamo's new Decimator.

 

The developer says if you email him directly he will guarantee a response in 3 days. See this link: http://visionpunk.vanillaforums.com/discussion/1034/how-to-post-a-support-ticket#latest

 

I can't find any documentation on how to add custom impact effects according to an objects tag. I tried adding it in the code like I did in a previous game but it's not working. A couple of the impact effects play at the same time and it looks very off. This is what I tried. I would really appreciate a tutorial for this! Thank you!

//spawnimpact effect
if(m_Hit.transform.tag=="Enemy")
{
if(m_ImpactPrefab !=null)
vp_Utility.Instantiate(m_ImpactPrefab,m_Transform.position,m_Transform.rotation);
}

//spawndust effect
if(m_Hit.transform.tag=="Concrete")
{
if(m_DustPrefab !=null)
vp_Utility.Instantiate(m_DustPrefab,m_Transform.position,m_Transform.rotation);
}

//spawnspark effect
if(m_Hit.transform.tag=="Metal")
{
if(m_SparkPrefab !=null)
if(Random.value<m_SparkFactor)
vp_Utility.Instantiate(m_SparkPrefab,m_Transform.position,m_Transform.rotation);
}

//spawndebrisparticle fx
if(m_Hit.transform.tag=="Untagged")
{
if(m_DebrisPrefab !=null)
vp_Utility.Instantiate(m_DebrisPrefab,m_Transform.position,m_Transform.rotation);
}

 

Use layers; layer 25 is "Enemy". You can add this to the DoHit function in vp_HittscanBullet within the Raycast method.

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. if (m_BloodSplatter != null &&  (m_Hit.transform.gameObject.layer == 25))
3.                 vp_Utility.Instantiate(m_BloodSplatter, m_Hit.transform.position, m_Hit.transform.rotation);
4.

​

Greetings!

I have some very big news today. As some of you have noticed I've really put my head down lately and worked on a secret project. Version 1.6 of UFPS has been mysteriously delayed because of this. It's a great relief to finally be able to reveal what's been going on.

In short, VisionPunk will be changing focus from asset development to purely game development late 2016. Instead of putting UFPS to sleep, we have found a great team to bring UFPS forward.

Opsive, the developer of Third Person Controller and Behavior Designer, will take over as the publisher of UFPS : Ultimate FPS on January 20, 2016. VisionPunk will continue to work with Opsive on the 1.6, 1.7 and multiplayer releases of UFPS. Opsive and VisionPunk will collaborate in the design and planning of the UFPS 2.x release cycle.

"But why?" you may ask. Well, VisionPunk was not originally envisioned as a "tools corporation". It's a small indie team that's had about 2-7 members at any given time, all really passionate about game development. UFPS has been a blast but our end goal was always to make games. Staying true to one's path, there needs to be a cutoff point sooner or later. UFPS has now been featured in a book, UFPS 1.6 and 1.7 are nearing release and year's end is always the best time to make a big change such as this for many practical reasons.

At the same time, UFPS has a huge fanbase and enormous potential. There would be no sane reason for cancelling it. In searching for collaborators Opsive caught my interest. I was impressed by their Third Person Controller, Behavior Designer (with its incredible range of third party asset integrations and UFPS integration), their good support reputation and the stellar ratings and reviews of their assets. Opsive are obviously pros. Also, I have really enjoyed working with Justin at Opsive so far and I have full confidence in Opsive bringing UFPS into the future.

So what will happen to UFPS?
Only good things!

• UFPS version 1.6, 1.7 and the 1.0 version of the multiplayer addon will be released.
• UFPS 1.6 will contain a powerful new surface system.
• UFPS 1.7 will be focused on VR with support for Oculus Rift and Gear VR.
• Each release will have optimizations and bugfixes.
• Over the coming months, Justin and I will also be designing UFPS 2, making sure to incorporate all the best practices that we both have learned over the last 3 years as Unity asset developers.

Detailed info covering all of this

• Opsive UFPS takeover Q&A
• Official press release

To the UFPS community: thanks for all your help and passionate involvement in UFPS so far!
UFPS 2 will be very hard to beat.

Sincerely,

Cal

 

Opsive is an excellent choice. I have no fear that UFPS will not get the good care it deserves.

 

You can switch it off on the bullet projectile. Require Damage Handler checked off.

 

@Tinjaw: I'm glad you think so! I'm also confident of this. This discussion has some additional thoughts.

 

Looking forward to the new releases.

@opsive I guess all of the forum moves are complete? Since it appears the other link to the discussion is broken.

http://www.opsive.com/assets/UFPS/forum/

 

Yes, the new forum is up and running. Unfortunately we weren't able to setup a redirect from the previous forum. Here is a new link to the post that Cal mentioned earlier.

 

Any chance UFPS will support Windows Store?

 

How can I set up a persistent mouse cursor / reticle in the center of the screen. I'm developing for WebGL and don't want users to have to deal with the 'hidden mouse cursor message'. I am planning to just use a dot or small circle. Mouse Cursor > Forced is a good start, but it's not bound to the center of the screen. If I remember correctly, there used to be a persistent reticle in an older version of UFPS, what ever happened to that? Thanks.

Edit: I typically don't bring the demo levels into my project, and I use the Simple Player which doesn't have the Cross Hair component already attached. The cross hair component isn't actually the cursor.

 

Is there a roadmap with eta s? Are you planning to improve fps + tps switch inside the ufps?

Sorry if this has been asked before. There exists a vp_grab script to grab items and a vp_Itempickup to pickup stuff but is there a script to grab an item and put it into the inventory. I'm asking as my game has potions on shelfs and therefore the player will not run through them to pick them up.

 

I have looked at the UFPS input manager and there doesn't seem to be an easy way to change control to be more like an MMO style. I want the "A" and "D" key to rotate the player rather than sideways walking. Is this something that needs to be done in code?

 

Are you looking in this file?

Assets\UFPS\Base\Scripts\Core\Utility\vp_Input.cs

Then if you look at starting at 158 you can change as needed (This is with UFPS v1.5.2)

public virtual void SetupDefaults( string type = "" )

...

AddAxis("Vertical", KeyCode.W, KeyCode.S);
AddAxis("Horizontal", KeyCode.D, KeyCode.A);

 

In the UFPS InputManager, click the Add Input Axis,

• call it Mouse X for the Name,
  
• put the Positive Key to M and the
  
• Negative Key to N.

See if that test works for you. It looks like it overrides the Mouse function though, so only the Mouse Y would work. It sounds like you are trying to use only the Keyboard (I don't play MMO).

 

Hello.

Sorry for my English.

If Hero has AssaultRifle01 in his arms and if he will find another AssaultRifle01 as pickup that has 30 ammo, then nothing heppen. For example, if Hero had 30 ammo, after he had already picked up, he will remain the same 30 ammo, not 60.

if in Unity the pickup change vp_ItemPickup/Item from AssaultRifle01 to MachinegunBullet, then it will be work correctly.

But I do not know how to do it by script. In my script I check if Hero has AssaultRifle01 or no. If he already has AssaultRifle01, I want to add him 30 ammo.

Help me, please.

Thank you.

 

@Mike1968 In UFPS/Base/Content/Prefabs/Pickups/WeaponsHD/Ammo there is a prefab called PickupAssaultRifle01Clip. Use that for ammo pickups for that weapon.

For future, notice how it has a vp_ItemPickup with the Item matching the bullets the weapon you are using has.

 

Thank you, 99thmonkey!

But I know the prefab PickupAssaultRifle01Clip. I'd like that:

1. If Hero does not have AssaultRifle01 to receive it.
2. If Hero has AssaultRifle01 alredy that his ammo increases.

 

I am getting this error, when i am trying to switch from a Player character (prefab) that does not have a weapon to one that does:

Code (CSharp):

1. MissingReferenceException: The object of type 'vp_FPWeapon' has been destroyed but you are still trying to access it.
