@Thaddeus sounds good, thanks for the help and information. I'll keep you posted If I find any other bugs that want to pop up during testing.
-
@SkillzKilli Thanks for helping report bugs.

@Thaddeus Hey so I was just wondering, in the editor when I go to the movies folder the only thing in there is the setting.jpg but in the directory of the project (\CardinalMenu_Project_v171227_418\Content\Movies) you can see the video files there. How are you loading in the videos to be played without having them in the editor? Did you just put them in the defaulftgame.ini or is there a different way of working with them. I just want to be able to do my own videos when I get my game to commercial. Thanks
-
@SkillzKilli It's the LoadingScreen plugin. The configurations are in there. I'm not sure if it's dated by now. There may be better methods now. But it works.

You can download the project files at http://metahusk.com/cardinal-menu/ if you want. Are you looking to clone the repository so you can roll back to different changes?
That's weird, I can clone it without a problem using TortoiseHg and this command. I'm waiting for it to finish as I type this. (Edit: It cloned without issues.) I had a problem with SourceTree in the past. Maybe it's a SourceTree bug?
hg clone --verbose http://repositories.metahusk.com/menu.hg "I:\Unreal Projects\menu.hg-clone" -
@Thaddeus Your Tips helped, it worked on TortoiseHg. There are some issues I need to fix, but for now, this is good enough. Thank you very much!

I'm glad to hear it worked. Thanks for replying with your findings.

Cardinal Menu has been released for Unreal Engine 4.19 today. This update now includes Steam listen server pings! (As requested)
The video on the first post has been updated to reflect the 4.19 version of the project.

Does this support Inviting friends directly via Steam?

At the moment, it doesn't. I might look into adding that feature in the future. There is a Steam friends list in game, though.

Are you playing the packaged / built demo or in-editor? Windows 10? It sounds like maybe the window isn't selected? I'm not sure what is wrong on your end.

How does one go about opening the In Game menu? I got it to open biut then it would not close or return to the game for example. I do not purely understand the logic here..can you elaborate a little on how this works?
I saw you made something on the M keypress but what exactly happens there or how do we implement this?
Sorry for all the trouble but I am new to UE4.
-
Actually I guess the open/close menu is implemented in the test level you included with the menu itself. I'll try looking there for the implementation and then report back if I still can't get it to work.

The blueprint ThirdPersonPlayerController has an event called CreateinGameMenuWidget on construction.
There's also an action binding that opens and closes the window in the same blueprint. Basically, that action binding flip flops from showing and hiding the widget while also showing and hiding the mouse cursor.
The blueprint's location:
Blueprint'/Game/ThirdPersonExample/Blueprints/ThirdPersonPlayerController.ThirdPersonPlayerController' -
I can't seem to open the file, i generate visual studio file before opening it but it still says to generate the file. Im currently trying it with 4.19.2

I'll check if it's a problem with 4.19.2, currently I'm still using 4.19.0 because I build from source. You can try downloading the new version of advanced sessions plugin. It looks like mordentral released a 4.19.2 version. Here's the link: https://forums.unrealengine.com/community/community-content-tools-and-tutorials/41043-advanced-sessions-plugin
Edit: I was just able to open the project freshly cloned from the repository using 4.19.2's launcher edition on Visual Studio 2015. I'll try the compressed download copy next.
Edit2: I'm getting strange problems with the downloaded project and 4.19.2 as well. I'm not sure what the problem is yet. I'll get back to you.
Edit3: Turns out I have an issue with Windows Search Service and Win10's built in explorer's unzip program. It didn't decompress all the files. The downloaded version of the project compiled on 4.19.2 with VS2015 without issues.
I'm not sure what your problem is. Are you using Visual Studio 2017? I've had problems with it in the past.

If i install it to a new project from the zip you give how do i change the name of the game from Cardinal Menu to my own project name?
