1 – Setup

Download Unity Hub on your operating system https://unity.com/

Install unity on your machine

In Projects, click create “new project”

Create project name

Choose location

And connect unity cloud if you want that

Once done, go next.

Tutorial Unity3D Third-person shooter (TPS) with Emerald AI 3.0 Melee AI Game Design Document (GDD) Compliance with 2022.3.5f1

Updating manually from the deprecated version generate errors (that I want to avoid).

Solution : beginning from nothing but the GDD.

import

• Import ai (Emerald ai 3)
• Import model (woman 01 with helmet – anaconda)
• Import camera and controler (invector)

Configuration

• Import project settings

Creation :

• Folder “my project” on root
• My melee combat (copy past from emerald ai)

Deletion

• Main camera (Fly) (Position -3, 4, -20)

Creation again :

• Invector > shooter > create shooter controller (select anaconda)

Configuration again :

• Position (-3, 4, -20)

Insert :

• Weapon from (not from prefab) : Hive > Shooter_Hive > ShooterFeatures > Inventory_Collectables (vCollectibleAssaultRifle with position z=-18)

The following : https://github.com/Black-Horizon-Studios/Emerald-AI/wiki/Invector-Integration-Tutorial

Configure : Tag and layer

• In Inspector : tag “grenadier” must be defined as “enemy”
• The hero: he should be a “Player” layer and a tag “player”. (vShooterController_Woman_01_With_Helmet_04)
• In “detection and tags” > in tag faction options > in tag options > emerald unity tag: “Enemy” and “detection layers” select “player” and “enemy”. -> Now the grenadier can detect and try to attack the player.

Now the grenadier must be aggressive toward the player.

Setting up the player ‘s Shooter Manager

In “damage layers” > “damage layer” > select enemy

How to configure the name of grenadier ?

In ui setting , display ai name choose “yes”.

In ai setting stats : ai name: “Grenadier”.

Adding Player’s Bullet Collision Detection :

• Script in asset/ invector 3D / shooter / prefab / weapon / bullet / vDefaultBullet prefab.
• Go to Vprojectilecontrol
• Go to Damage Options
• Set damage value to any Number(like 10) (Previously it was 0).

Tutorial Unity3D Third-person shooter (TPS) with Emerald AI 3.0 Game Design Document (GDD)

Create a new 3D project in Unity3D (not HDRP because it’s not supported by Emerald AI 3).

How to have Assets :

1. To have Assets : https://assetstore.unity.com/
2. Where is the « package manager » in unity ?
3. Unity’s main menu and go to Window > Package Manager.

How to Import:

Warning: you must choose to use Emerald AI 3 to create a AI for this tutorial (it doesn’t work for another). Whereas, you are free to choose the player you wish and the TPS you want.

I have purchased Emerald AI 3.0, the female soldier 01 anaconda, and Invector Third Person Controller (TPS) – Shooter Template.

Next step is to buy AI and do the integration :

https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/ai/emerald-ai-3-0-203904 (contain environment also)

• You need also a player.

https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/3d/characters/humanoids/sci-fi/female-soldier-01-anaconda-248569

• And a Third Person Shooter (a camera, a weapon(s) and ammos):

https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/game-toolkits/invector-third-person-controller-shooter-template-84583

How to Create your project:

In Project > Assets >Emerald AI > Demo > Demo Scenes > Melee Combat Example

To copy-paste inside “my project” and renamed “my Melee Combat Example”. (dissociated from other assets folders to prevent an update to erase your files)

Since you copy-paste it, you don’t need to create an AI. It’s already done.

(How to Create an AI through the Setup Manager (Emerald AI wiki): https://github.com/Black-Horizon-Studios/Emerald-AI/wiki/Creating-an-AI-through-the-Setup-Manager )

Delete camera already existing because, you will create a new one by using Invector.

How to Configure (Player + Camera):

• Invector (menu) > Import project settings
• Invector > Shooter > Create Shooter Controller
• Character creation window > fbx model > select
• Choose the prefab/ asset (woman_01_with_helmet) with helmet
• Inside vshooterController_woman_01_with_helmet , move 3D model where you want and copy paste the coordinate inside vshooterController_woman_01_with_helmet (Position: X = 0.9 ; Y = 3.5 ; Z = 0.6) (Rotation Y = 180) from closed space to open space.
• After reset position 3D model
• play
• You don’t need the old camera(“Main Camera (Fly) ») , you can remove it. If error, you have a backup inside the (Emerald AI > Demo > Demo Scenes > Melee Combat Example)

Optional: ( How to Create a Companion AI with the Emerald AI Setup Manager)

1. go to Window > Emerald AI > Setup Manager within Unity.
2. In setup settings  > AI object : Woman_01_Without_Helmet_01 (Emerald Companion)
3. And click the “save “ button at the end.

Companion Example

An example of a Companion AI that follows the player around. It will attack any opposing AI that tries to attack the player.

Tutorial How to perform Invector integration: https://github.com/Black-Horizon-Studios/Emerald-AI/wiki/Invector-Integration-Tutorial

How to Set up the AI Layer and Tags :

• For the enemy: In inspector, the tag must be “enemy” and layer “enemy”.
• The hero: he should be a “Player” layer and a tag “player”. (vShooterController_Woman_01_With_Helmet_04)
• In “detection and tags” > in tag faction options > in tag options > emerald unity tag: “Enemy” and “detection layers” select “player” and “enemy”. -> Now the grenadier can detect and try to attack the player.

How to do add weapons and Ammo?

In Invector > Shooter > DemoScene

In hierarchy:    Hive > Shooter_Hive > ShooterFeatures > Inventory_Collectables

                                                – Ammo > vAmmoAssaultRifle_Inventory

– Weapons > vCollectibleAssaultRifle

Copy-paste on your project and change Transform to fit around your main player . (-1,0,0) and (0,0,-1)

The weapon should be a layer: “Triggers”.

How to activate the collision detection ?

I follow the source Tutorial : https://github.com/Black-Horizon-Studios/Emerald-AI/wiki/Invector-Integration-Tutorial
