Problems with Forms

[seiyria]

Hi, I spent a bit of time trying to install Forms. I followed your guide here and I had a lot of questions. I'm new to UDK (and using 2013-02-BETA2), so some things didn't make sense to me.

First, I copied all of the FormsExample files to their respective directories. Then I noticed you had a bit of text about Resources, but never any mention of where it should go, so I tried putting that in places and it didn't really do much - you make it seem like it's optional to have?

Next, when I go to run it, I get this error in a basically unmodified environment (as in, we have the default map - it looks like this). So I get no UI, just the default map (I think so anyway, it looks like this).

Any ideas what's up?

Scratch this, it took a bit more playing but we got it. Thanks for the great library!

Mind if I ask you how you solved the problem? Might update the guide based on that ;)

Thanks for choosing my library :)

The guide states:

Move FormsExample/Classes (and Test.bat) to _YOUR-UDK\Development\Src_

which was misunderstood as meaning that the contents of FormsExample/Classes/ should be inside Development/Src/, when instead the Classes/ folder itself should have been placed inside another folder in Development/Src/, making the final path to the source files Development/Src/FormsExample/Classes/.

Furthermore, it was unclear that you didn't need the main Forms library in the beginning when running the precompiled Forms example. It might just be that we're new to UDK still, though.
