ForestAINPC System: Beginner's Guide
This guide is designed to help Unreal Engine beginners understand, interact with, and debug the ForestAINPC system. Our system features AI-driven NPCs, voice interaction, fire propagation simulation, and sophisticated wildlife behavior.
Getting Started
Opening the Project
- Launch Unreal Engine 5.3 or newer
- Open the
.uproject
file from the main directory - Wait for the editor to fully load all assets and compile shaders
Understanding the Main Components
The system consists of several interconnected components:
- NPCs with Voice Recognition: Characters that respond to your voice
- Wildlife AI System: Animals that react to fire, player presence, and environmental changes
- Fire Propagation System: Simulation of forest fires spreading based on wind direction
- Player Interaction System: VR controls and voice interaction mechanisms
