CLEAN USER INTERFACE IN SANDBOX


Hi everyone, 

the following images show settings for capturing clean animations by creating a flowgraph attached to a basic entity and hiding it in game. This flowgraph removes the character's guns, removes the display info text in the top right hand corner of the perspective window, as well as the HUD at the bottom of the screen, visible in 'game' mode.

To remove the gridded default texture, do the following:

1. Click on the Terrain Tab, select Texture




2. Click on the link under material, this will open up the material applied to the terrain texture within Material Editor.




3. Click on the ... button in the material's diffuse slot.




4.Navigate to Game > Textures > Defaults, select grey.dds.
