Hey! PaperZD Coder here.
Thanks a lot for covering the plugin, it was a very cool surprise to see you create a guide for it.
It was also a nice surprise to even see our own game at the start of the video.
I'm glad that people are enjoying what I made.
Cheers!

Thank you! I just started a simple 2D game this week in Unreal and the timing on this video is perfect 😁

I just started using this plugin and then you made a video on it. It was helpful thanks

[troygill]

Thank you for sharing this video I had no idea PaperZD existed! I read all the comments and saw you'll be posting another course on Udemy featuring this plugin. I already bought the other course and loved it I can't wait to see the new one. I was just wondering if in the new Udemy course maybe you'll go in depth with/introduce leveling systems, inventory UI, or even 2d cut scenes. I don't mean to ask for too much but you're one of the few YouTubers who actively put out 2D development content in unreal engine due to Unreal's lack of support for 2D.

Hi great tutorial but i was wondering how do i add more than 2 anims as my current character has 4 anims i want him to change between? im very new to this stuff so forgive my ignorance. Thanks

Why is InputAxis MoveLeft/Right inaccesible for me?

Thank you! - any reason the Walk has been removed from the File? Thanks again.

Hello, I have been looking all over trying to figure out how to make my sprites cast a shadow. Do you know how?

[olegklaus]

Thank you for the Video. I was wondering, is there a way to create a skeletal mesh (add bones) to a 2D sprite?

[carlosrivadulla]

will the new state tree system in 5.1 change the anim workflow?

I have done this other tutorial with your sprite sheet, but I wanted to make my own sprite sheet character at this size 64x64. I get confused on how to do that. Would you recommend I get aesprite software for this to be able to create my own?

hello Uisco do you think you could teach a weapon change system in a 2d character since it has me confused why I want my character to change the animation from idle to idle gun when taking a weapon (which would be when he has any type of weapon) and of course their respective animations run with the weapon or jump with it (of course I'm new to unreal).

I put this comment in another video xd great tutorial

Since PaperZD is free now, might be worth adding a section to your Udemy tutorial for it.

I'm working on a 2D papersprite game like paper mario in a 3D world and i tried this tutorial but how do i make the animation blueprint for 8 directions ? this one is Left and Right, i'm trying to make ( DOWN - DOWNLEFT - LEFT - UP LEFT - UP - UP RIGHT - RIGHT - DOWN RIGHT ) Thanks for uploading this tutorial.

[deadman]

how to import into the game, i am new

[nathanbutron]

is there a way i can make a isometric game with paper zd while still having a pixelated look?

[TheSpinner]

great video but how i do a change direction animation (sorry my english)

[mitchellhoover]

This is a great plugin! I just need to verify a few things.
1. Can this be used for 2D in a 3D world? Every tutorial i've seen on it has honestly been shit when it comes to multiple sprites being used. They always focus on the 2D back and forth but not movement up and down.
2. Animation blueprints seem to work exactly the same is that right?

[Jr-Mind]

Can you make a solution tutorial in ue4

[ronsronshirt]

the reason your animation shakes around and shrinks is that you used the auto mode on flipbook
