For those on UE 5 and wondering how to get the exhaust particles to work:
You need to name the user parameter whatever you want and remember that name. In my case I named it Attractor Position.
When you get to the part where you are going to change the attractor's position, use a Set Vector Parameter pulled off of your instance handle of the particle system component. It should be titled:
Set Vector Parameter
Target is FXSystem Component
Enter the name in Parameter Name exactly as you named it in the system.
Break out the vector pin and plug in the X value to the X and 1.0 to the Y and Z.
Back in the particle system drag that user parameter on top of the Attractor Position Offset.
Remember not to let the absolute value of the attractor radius become = or > than Attraction Radius.
This tutorial is great, as is the rest of the series. Good job! A very small and minor critique would be updating this for unreal 5. A lot has changed, specifically in Niagra since you put this tutorial out. I had to do some trouble shooting with get the thrusters to update. Other than that this was super helpful!
Hi!, did you resolve the problem? in UE5 just put "Attractor Position" and works for me,
only adjust the effect to the maximum acceleration because in mine when I accelerate to the maximum the effect disappears
@@msinclaircorp4571 Thanks a lot, that fixed my UE5 issue with Niagara as well.
@@msinclaircorp4571 I don't get this how and where is that fix exactly.? My concern is I get a heat blur And NO COLOR at all.? Can u help please
I just give it a fast look, BUT it is amazing tutorial! Thank you very much for sharing it. It will help me a lot in my own project. Please keep it up!
Thanks a lot for the great lessons! The best of all! And for this it is worth watching carefully all 3 parts !!!
Great tutorial, works well on UE5. Now just to make it work in Multiplayer :D
been looking for a jet effect for hour thank you!!!
The missing part of this series is sound. How can I add sound based on speed of aircraft
Another excellent tutorial series! Thank you! Noticing your recording times, it appears that we keep similar hours...
XD
its great thank you so much for tutorial! if you can give a tutorial on collision and crash systems it would be greatly appreciated.
Super good tutorial! Keep it up!
Amazing tutorials!
This series is god bless. Keep it coming!
great video but i was wondering if there was a way to make the plane scrape the floor and continue to move instead of just stopping and freezing
This is awesome. Do you know if a known trajectory and set of deflections can be sent to unreal for visualization?
Thank you for this awesome tutorial so far until I hit the Attractor Position part with BP and Niagara.
I am in 4.27 and that variable seems to have been changed to "Attractor Position Offset" which I put into the BP but sadly the thrust doesn't make the thrusters perk up.
Any ideas?
Yeah, I'm stuck on that same issue and tried the same thing. I doubt he's going to come back to this so I guess we're on our own. If you're still working on this I guess let me know what you did to fix this. I'll also let you know if I figure it out.
Did you guys find any solution yet? Also on 4.27, User.AttractorPosition not working.
@@hansza7845 no sorry, I haven't been able to figure it out.
16:11 ==> The target variable name in 'Set Niagara Variable (Vector3) should be 'User.Attractor Position' rather than 'User.AttractorPosition' ; Notice the 'space' ... This solved it for me :)
I had this name by copying the linked value to the Attractor Position in the ThrusterEffect Niagara System:
Begin Object Class=/Script/NiagaraEditor.NiagaraClipboardContent Name="NiagaraClipboardContent_1"
Begin Object Class=/Script/NiagaraEditor.NiagaraClipboardFunctionInput Name="NiagaraClipboardFunctionInput_0"
End Object
Begin Object Name="NiagaraClipboardFunctionInput_0"
InputName="Attractor Position"
InputType=(ClassStructOrEnum=ScriptStruct'"/Script/CoreUObject.Vector"',UnderlyingType=2)
ValueMode=Linked
Linked="User.Attractor Position"
End Object
FunctionInputs(0)=NiagaraClipboardFunctionInput'"NiagaraClipboardFunctionInput_0"'
End Object
@@am4su330 Thank you!
Thanks!! my first time with niagara but with your help!! i can make good thruster for my mecha model ^^
Hi there + 1 subscriber thank you. I have a problem though.. I get a heat blur no matter what I do.. I don't get any color .. at all why is that.? and at timecode 14:10 I do exact same with you but get NO Static Color in the thrusters...
is this still possible to create on unreal engine 5.4? i need thrusters that work with fast moving objects. The free vfx from the market are garbage so i want to create my own. i will attempt this.
update: this is working as of 5.4. at least the thruster emitter system part, cause thats all i needed.
my particils dont get small if i put user attractor position do you know a solition pls help
Was anyone able to get this to work in 4.26.2? I tried following what some of the commentors suggested, but it's not working for me. The thrust speed has no affect on the thruster emitter.
i have the same problem
Same problem here, what were the others' suggestions? Haven't seen any relevant to this issue.
damn this just dont work in 4.26 i guess
Can you do a video on how to implement Wingtip contrails, or commonly known as Wingtip Vortices....I copy and paste that.
hey is there any chance that I can use this method but can I skip the static meshes part instead use skeletal or joint of my mesh for retargeting and can make a video about how to add audio stuff to the jet
Help anywhere to find ground effects like water from wings?
When your plane is rolled 90 Degrees with the wings vertical does the plane Yaw like a throwing star because of the rotation?
If I understand your question, yes that's correct.
So what are the new tutorials you are planning to make?
Really cool man gj
man pls tell how to generate collisions for the jet pls my jet is going through the surface the surface is not blocking it
the only problem that i have with this whole project is lagging (jitering) plane. I don't know is this camera spring arm problem or maybe plane variables update lag.
Try turning off camera lag for the spring arm. If that fixes the jittering then the issue is with the spring arm and you might have to adjust some of that values. I'm not sure why it would be jittering though,...
get tutorial everything smooth, however i can't get the thrusters to update. if anyone has any idea what i could do please let me know. im using ue5
Is it normal that in your video has "8 Min 02" when you look for the "One minus Float" I do not find it in my system ...? Which Engine do you use?
It's possible. Niagara is still pretty new and they're changing it a lot. I'm on 4.25
@@ReidsChannel How to do so, if I use the 4.20 engine or if other users use another engine than the 4.25 you can’t resource us, a spawn emiter under ". rare" and please share it with us
@@yessnowww5345 I don't really understand what you're asking but if you're using an older version than the tutorial then you either need to update or find a different way to do it.
@@ReidsChannel Thanks anyway, my I’ll have guessed myself to find another way to do it..
hi
nice
thanks for tutorials
@Reid Treharne can male ue4 tutorials for
when jet if flaying in sky ,
and speed is high speed ,
screccn blured and see line spead in air
Make it feel like we're moving at high speed
and
The plane's wheel opens and
The plane landed on the runway
and also
The plane takes off
thx
Thank you :) I'll consider expanding on this tutorial to add those things in the future.
@@ReidsChannel Thanks, landing gear, starts and landing would make this tutorial round ;)
how can I make collider physics?my plane has no collision
9:32 "Stupid orbit grgrgr"
Thank's for this tutorial ! Have a question, your plane works with replication please ?
Hmm you can turn on replicate movement but im not sure it will work so well, it wasnt designed with that in mind
@@ReidsChannel ok thanks ;)
Superb .. can you please make one tutorial on VTOL ?
Great... God Bless You
can you pls make jet crash tutorial?
BTW i love your videos!
Good tut!!
Thanks :D
Unreal 4.25 is crashing when try to use "Read from user parameter" (10:20) . Anyone having the same problem?
same
i figured out a solution after some time, go to parameters>User Exposed> click the + sign and create a new vector. Drag that into the point attaction force and rename it so you can use it in the blueprints. Works just fine
@mr. M glad it helped! :)
I followed everything, but i cant control the plane. pls help..............
In 4.26 everything worked except the thruster effects....I literally tried to do everything that I could think off but nope...They didn't stretched like yours did.
Yeah, I wasn't able to get mine to work either. Niagara is going through a lot of changes in each version update though and when I was following a long there were quite a few new features that I didn't see in Reids clips.
He was also learning Niagara for the first time himself so we can't really expect much. Wish I could help you figure it out, but honestly I'm not too concerned. I just wanted to mess around with a jet for a bit.
increase the "Attraction Radius" in the point attraction force node in Niagara.
@@captiancombat8531 it dosn't solve the problem for me..
I found that the naming/str has changed to expect whitespaces. So now it only works it you enter variable name: User.Attractor Position. In your emitter system you can find your user variable under Parameters > User Exposed, right-click it and select Copy Reference. Then you can paste the string into your BP exactly as it's expected!
@@samb7983 Works! :D
Amazing!
Thank you :)
plane landing system??
amazing
you're amazing
amazing! make a take off system :)
Any chances of firing tutorial :)
Maybe!
@@ReidsChannel that will be Fun 🤩
could it be possible to make it shoot??
Yes if you had the assets for it, of course
Cool
On Tuto commander Sub Marine Pleaze :)
