Hi, I dont know what I am doing wrong, but after installing it says: the following modules are missing or built with a different engine version: ALSV4_CPP. I am using 4.26

First I copied the folder into 4.26 plugin folder, then I did the other steps. What am I missing?

[gfrancqu]

Yes you should, so i guess you did the "switch engine version" on your folder before generating vscode files. Did you launch a build of your development editor ? Aren't you launching your project from the epic launcher? maybe you are not launching the good engine instance

[Oladipupo]

@Batuhan7011 @gfrancqu Fixed the problem, really make sure to you Copy the right context in the Right [filename].ini folder. REALLY check the name you are installing too.

[dyanikoglu]

For further reference, if you're getting this problem, it means there is something wrong with how your project is set-up. As long as Unreal builds ALSV4_CPP correctly, there shouldn't be any problem.

Also you should be copying the plugin into your project's Plugins folder, not engine's. I don't support building the plugin inside engine, and it's not tested on my side.

I wanted to include prebuilt binaries with each release, but a change in engine after Unreal 4.25.2 update broke that.

sorry to continue this old post, but first off amazing job with this plugin thanks for allowing us all to use it, just wish i could get it up and running.

im having a similar problem. ive downloaded both the source the exe version of the engine and can't get the plugin to build no matter what keeps asking to build manually, then when i build manually i keep getting these errors can anyone help please?

if anyone has my problem i have solved it. you have to add #include "Library/ALSCharacterStructLibrary.h" to ALSMathLibrary.h

Search that on YT, there is a lot of tutorials teaching this.

This project is really amazing and meaningful👍, thanks for all the efforts @dyanikoglu does. Hope someday I could help with this repository.😁

This project is awesome and I'd love to use it, but as a plugin it's pretty untenable. It's nearly impossible to update the base ALS classes with game module logic, unless you jump through a lot of hoops with lots of overrides, code duplication, etc. This would be production ready if it were a standalone project that can be more easily migrated to other existing projects so that the animation system can be integrated with game logic, since migrating plugin content and code is an unworkable solution in Unreal Engine 4 due to reference migration issues (try to Advanced Copy the plugin content to the project).

[Drakynfly]

@looterz It was originally a standalone project. There are versions like that out there. In any case, yes, as an engine level plugin, its not very integratible, but that's not how its really used. Install it as a project level plugin and you can modify it to your hearts content, provided your project is a c++ one, which is really what this plugin is for. For blueprint only projects there are other versions that are blueprint only.
If this wasn't a plugin I wouldn't be able to use it at all. Plugins are infinitely easier to integrate into c++ projects.

Thank you so much for sharing this! Really good job!

hi. I am running this project in ue4.26. I have this little issue. the ALS character shows sprinting animation when walking and running. i don't know what i have done wrong but I have followed the installation steps.

[dyanikoglu]

I need more information about that, but seems like you've something wrong with your project.

[sooroosh10]

I have downloaded the latest version of ALSV4_CPP and it works fine. thank you for your grate jub.

We are having a great time working with this. Keep up the great work and thanks a lot!

Total newbie here, could I use this with EOS and in cooperation with the Online Subsystem Blueprints ? thanks in advance

Hi. I am new in c++ coding. I Just want to know how I can have a reference of the camera in ALSCharacter to do the basic things like zooming, Line tracing and other stuff. I Understand that we are using the ALSCameraManagement but I couldn't find a way to take it in ALSCharacter. thanks.

Good stuff, great optimizations.

Might be worth considering exposing the input functions on ALSBaseCharacter.h to the editor.

Input overrides tied to custom movement behavior is much easier to do in BP. Specifically checking the value of BP only variable, and then calling functions like PlayerForwardMovementInput() allows you to have finer control about when/how to process input differently from the base behavior without worrying about the C++.
