Using UFPS AdvancedPlayer

PixelCrushers

Sorry to bring this up again, but I'm getting back to this and still have an issue. 

I'm using:

• Unity 5.0.1f1
• AC 1.44
• UFPS 1.5.0
• The AdvancedPlayer prefab downloaded from adventurecreator.org.

I can't find a setup that works. Here's what I've tried:

Setup #1:

• MainCamera: tagged "MainCamera"
• FPSCamera: tagged "Untagged"
• Result: Error: (PlayerPrefab AC (vp_FPWeaponHandler)) Hierarchy error. This component must be added to a gameobject with vp_Weapon components in child gameobjects.
• Reason: vp_FPWeaponHandler runs Camera.main.GetComponentsInChildren<vp_Weapon>(), but Camera.main points to MainCamera.

Setup #2:

• MainCamera: Untagged
• FPSCamera: MainCamera
• Result: MainCamera has no MainCamera component.
• Reason: KickStarter finds the first GameObject tagged "MainCamera", which in this case is FPSCamera, which doesn't have a MainCamera component. If I add a MainCamera component to FPSCamera, it moves FPSCamera under _Cameras, which totally screws up UFPS.

Setup #3:

• MainCamera: MainCamera
• FPSCamera: MainCamera
• Result: Same as Setup #1.

Other failed setups:

• MainCamera:Untagged, FPSCamera:Untagged: No. AC can't find MainCamera component.
  
  
• MainCamera:MainCamera, FPSCamera:FirstPersonCamera: No. UFPS can't find weapons.
  
  
• MainCamera:FirstPersonCamera, FPSCamera:MainCamera: No. AC can't find MainCamera component.

Any solutions?

Don't apologise - if there's a problem, thanks for the alert!  Setup #1 is the correct workflow, but how often does the error appear?  If it's only the once, does it prevent weapons from appearing at all?

It only appears at the beginning, but that's when vp_FPWeaponHandler sets up weapon models appropriately for the camera. Weapons technically work, but they're not set up the way UFPS wants them to be.

I see.  I'll have to look into allowing the UFPS camera to be tagged as MainCamera then.

It turns out the warning in Setup #2 can be ignored if you know what you're doing.  Were there any other problems with your game beyond that initial message?

It seems there's a new issue with turning with UFPS in v1.44.  This package should fix it until the next proper release is out.

Let's assume I have no idea what I'm doing. :-) But no, there don't seem to be any other problems. Could this cause any side effects that I should be aware of?

I haven't noticed any turning issues, but I'll check out the new package. Thanks!
