I would like this too lol.
For me it would be aligning things. When using square things and a 16, 8, 4 or 2 grid it's easy enough if the object doesn't go over your head and isn't visible to place it where you want. But everything is misaligned when using no grid. So yeah it would be aligning stuff for me. It's probably much easier on PC
What platform are you on?
Read moreI think one of the first videos should talk about memory. How different objects affect memory and nice tips on to reduce memory for maps like sticking to a smaller pallet instead of throwing everything you can into a map.
Obviously it is a option to use whatever you want and people are free to do so but explain how and why it affects the game in terms of frame rate and and how it can affect a gameplay.
Also maybe give some more detailed guidlines in video form for the block. Like what is the height limit you guys are looking for, can certain blocks over lap the block border (like trees, rocks and other taller protruding shapes. The base may be in the boundies but can they stick out a little)
Some gameplay tips on how to create a nice play space ( Like not over loading rooms with to many objects its hard to move, not making loot rooms of easy to obtain materials, good chest placements and some good path ways for players to traverse that are not to small but ...
Excellent ideas, thank you!
Read moreA general tips & tricks video to help guide players in both easier ways to use the tools as well as how to approach projects:
Building vertical platforms to spawn in pre-fabs makes sure it doesn't clip through the ground & makes it easier to select / delete.
Selecting a theme before starting can be important, aiming to mix both a 'location' & theme such as city location + volcanic theme helps create a richer world. As well as making some back story lore to it.
Trying pieces together before building, creating mood boards, finding how you want to decorate your world and building mock ups.
Common things to avoid such as repetitive pieces (using the same wall or prop over and over), building square shapes instead of trying irregular both horizontally and vertically, leaving vast empty spaces, etc.
Barrier Blocks, Music Sequencer, Objectives functionality, Starting Inventory explained with examples on creat...
Thank you for this!
Of course no one read the post and just floods it with requests, lol. 🙄
A tutorial with an overview of the available tools is definitely necessary, and a tutorial on the different game settings and devices available, too. Also maybe one that shows what items some of the galleries have so people can jump right in
Tool overview sounds like a great idea.
If it is okay to talk about a missing tool:
iOS and Android Bug(s) By Date: (Touch input only)
2. There is no button to mirror a wall, ramp, etc with the phone. (Since December 6, 2018)
We're actually looking for what tutorials people would be interested in. ;)
I think one thing most people don’t understand is the Grid Snap feature. My friends disco floors are always off because he doesn’t know how to put it on the right setting. That’s one you could do, i’m sure it would help beginners
Great idea. I had the same problem when I first started.
Hey everyone,
We'll be jumping in with the Creative team to answer your questions! Join us for a Creative Mode AMA on this subreddit on Friday, March 29th from 2-3PM EDT (6-7PM UTC).
Who will be there?
We want to give you all a chance to ask some questions early so ask away in the comments. We'll use some of these questions to hit the ground running when the AMA begins. See you all on Friday!
External link →We're aware of issues with the Baller settings and use in islands that were created prior to 8.20. We're investigating and will report back when we have more information.
External link →Sorry all, with the release of 8.20 we accidentally broke Ballers in creative so we've temporarily switched off Climb & Slide. We'll be bringing it back as soon as we've fixed the Ballers.
selecting objects in creative causes frame drops. im not sure if this has been mentioned at all
What platform / device and which object. We'll take a look.
Hi I don’t know if this has been fixed but players can’t shoot/switch guns when a new round starts, the only way to fix is to respawn before the game starts
Will need more info on this shooting/switching guns bug. If you have a game built where this is broken send me your Epic Display Name and the island the game was built on and we'll give it a test.
Infinity Blade does WAY to much damage to objectives. It can one hit 10000 health objectives. Please allow us to adjust that or just lower to something more reasonable. 500 or so.
Well now it's a feature. We'll see see what we can do for this in the future to provide an option. What do you think about just having a normal sword instead without all the special powers? The special powers are what are causing a significant number of bugs.
Music Sequencer STILL not fixed. It's been 3 weeks.
- The zone is visible in game
- Original blue synth notes will often not be played
When are we expecting this fix /u/ZooKeeperZak ? I know I'm incredibly impatient but I mean, it's preventing me from making a video with it.
Totally agreed! We had a full on conversation about fixing this for 8.20. Thought we had gotten it fixed sorry. We did get all the damage noises fixed, made sure to test those. We've prioritized that bug for 8.30. Sorry it'll be a few more weeks.
Downtime has completed for the v8.20 update. Hone your skills using new Shooting gallery device!
Creatures from spawners do not spawn loot. Would be nice if we could turn that on and choose what type of loot they drop.
It's in plan to add ability to turn that on/off and to specify what loot they drop :).
why can we drop the infinity blade if dropping items is off? I want to make a sword fighting game mode but I can't if the players will keep dropping it
The way Infinity blade overrides inventory use is one of the big issues we had when getting this fixed for release. Spawning with it causes a lot of issues. We're still working on fixing spawning with the blade. For now you have to pick it up after spawning. You can put them in chests or the item spawner. Sorry I know them littering the ground is going to suck.
Downtime has started for v8.20 update.
Head over to the patch notes to learn about what's new in Creative Mode: https://www.epicgames.com/fortnite/patch-notes/v8-20
External link →Hello Creative community!
We continue to see fantastic creations and are constantly amazed at what you’re able to build with the new tools that release. We’re going to start directly talking to you more often about what other tools you’d like to see and how the current set are working for you. Giving you all the things you need to continue creating!
We’re going to kick off our first Creative Chat today, and you can expect these regularly (every week or so) to discuss the ongoing development of Creative Mode. Let’s get started!
We know that starting out in Creative Mode can be a bit overwhelming, with the array of tools and objects available. If we were to work with the community to create tutorial videos, what topics would be most useful to you?
