Overlay material is best to show gamers which object is intractable

[@GorkaGames]

true!!

[@idrawstudios87]

I wish you would if showed us how to activate it by turning it on and off in runtime

[@kristabenson1893]

Please show how to setup in blueprint for game to active on ability.

[@Sirbozo]

can you make a ue5 cpp vid for the very beginners in ue5?

[@juanmilanese]

thanks gorka.
what About performance, costs like a translucent material right?

[@gerasiniestro9577]

muchas gracias , me ayudaste con este tutorial , estaba buscando un efecto simple de daño para un enemigo , ahora lo que hago es en el blueprint del enemigo añado y quito el overlay material , justo cuando recibe daño con eso logre un efecto similar a cuando los arcades con enemigos brillando cuando los golpeaba

[@sachchitlauvyadaskakoty]

Bro please make a tutorial series on how to make a game like resident evil just like you did for gta 6 & assassins creed

[@angeldelvax7219]

Thank you, I needed that!
Any ideas how to set replication behavior for this? I want it to be replicated if I use it for powerups or something like that, but when I use it to show a selected object (or to show what I'm interacting with) it shouldn't be replicated. All players should see powerups, but when everyone sees what one player is selecting it gets confusing ;)

Noice, I hope you will go to the VFX side of Unreal Engine or a series of it. ❤

[@pierrotbeats-music]

could you deepen the tutorial by doing this but when the player has their cursor on the object to interact with it??

[@PhatTan-hy3jb]

Bro!! Now I’m using UE5 version 5.4 and I see the trace when I attack the dummy is less than in your video 1 year ago. So does it have any effect? 😅

[@Alternatywny_1]

At my end, this Overlay Material doesn't seem to work. I've added it to every type of object as a test, but nothing changes :/ Any ideas?

[@FrankSpinello-ei3kz]

is there a way to do this but make it so the material is slightly bigger than the base mesh, like a force field type of look or would it need to be a separate mesh outlining the character to get that effect?

[@juanmilanese]

you could push the vertices outwards with world position offset I guess.
Probably something like multiplying the vertex normal with a scalar and plug it in WPO

❤️❤️😊

[@zqz.66]

Can u make the new motion system in the next gta video?

[@jonnyex]
