Don't mean the bump this, by ChangePlayerMesh didn't appear in my kismet. I put the class in Scr/MyMod/Classes and compiled it.

Did you add MyMod in your INI File? Take a look here: http://udkc.info/index.php?title=UDK/Configure

Thanks, it helped me!
As it's a tutorial, you should maybe add this:

in code, make sure you put your type of controler if it's not UTPlayerController, by replacing it at the 2 positions in the code.

If you don't extend UTPlayerController in your own controler you won't get any errors but in game it won't replace the skeletalmesh and it will be said "YourPawn has no handler"... The lin is quite hard to find between these 2 at first sight.


This way your tutorial could even be used by noobs!
