I started to follow this one lately. Not profficient yet by no means, but hell... this is much better than trying to make everything perfect

A while back I wrote UnrealSuite - powershell (v. 7) script to help me build all things #ue5 Sharing it here in case someone finds it useful. Can't swear by all of the presets/options, it was intended for personal use, so let me know and I'll help/fix it pwsh 7: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powers...

Here’s a #UETip for you. Avoid setting render features in PPVs if you want to change them through any other method (like scalability settings or device profiles).

This project is worth supporting for all the reasons!

Just completed "Historian Hysteria" - Day 1 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/1 I wanted to do take part this year, but almost forgot! Got inspired by @rishabh100.bsky.social's recent post.

Well, it was far from easy, but now I can connect to #unreal session from a rust application over UDP! Had to make a cmd prompt that lets me e.g. paste a base64 packet from Wireshark to simulate traffic with data hijacked from Unreal <-> SessionFrontend communication to figure out the protocol

I did some open-sourcing today. Anybody from the #neovim crowd around?

#unreal 5.4, I think, introduced another neat quality of life feature. You can now type a path in the Content Browser. It even suggests valid paths #uetips #ue5 #gamedev

Still one of the most accessible explanations of the rendering equation out there

Just found out about @anatoleduprat.bsky.social's SamplingLab. This is a true gem of a tool, holly shit - a cheatsheet on steroids for shader programmers (or for figuring out a spatial distribution / other stuff!)

I think I just got inspired to make a tiny rollercoaster project myself. Just for fun. Any upcoming game jams around?

#unreal #uetips If you haven't yet heard of the `-Log -NewConsole`, it's one of my favorite UE5 additions. You can filter, exec commands, even had a convenience `Log CHECKPOINT#` button. But the awesome thing is, it doesn't hang with the game/engine, and if you close it, your instance also closes

If you're using #rider with #unreal, I strongly recommend installing the EzArgs plugin. It will allow you to effortlessly run the editor or game with console arguments. Also keeps a history! I regularly use it to run with the `-Log -NewConsole` which is on its own super useful #uetips

Data Validators in Unreal Engine are great, but they only notify you of what's wrong. Team members might still come to you and say "it gives me an error, can you fix it?" Well, Aaron Bostrom from Tanglewood just showed me that you can now add a Fixer which users can click to fix things! 👀 #uetips

#unreal is sending its logs through UDP and you can connect to it with Session Frontend. I've been highjacking this communication lately for pure fun/learning and to later get those logs with a custom tool. It's hard to describe the satisfaction I felt when the data I decoded today made sense 😅

If you haven't seen this one yet, here's a good one about config files and the hierarchy: dev.epicgames.com/documentatio... Notable mentions: - you can have global configs in youd documents (applied right before the project's configs) - you can use cli args to swap config files or even the folder

I've made a Starter Pack for UE devs that give great tips that are helpful online. Know anyone that should be on it? Let me know!

I think one of the best ways to learn Unreal for a programmer is by making tools You have to learn how stuff works under the hood and you get accustomed to diving into the codebase without fear, both of which are critical skills in this ecosystem

🕹️Snake in the Dark🕹️ Wishlist on Steam ➡️ bit.ly/SnakeInBlueSky Sure, you've played Snake. But could you play it blind? Snake in the Dark is a total re-imagination of the timeless arcade & puzzle game classics like Snake and Sokoban. #indiegame #indiedev #solodev #madewithfusion Repost if you can 🙏

A commit a day keeps stagnation away It's been exactly 10 weeks since I started to commit to my private repo daily. Fruitful 10 weeks of learning something new on a daily basis I've never been so consistent in my life

@gameengines.bsky.social I would like an Unreal Engine label please!

vim macros are so damn cool, I'm obsessed now #vimporn #vim #neovim #rust

It may seem obvious to seasoned devs, but one of my favorite #unreal tips is that if you see a text in the editor, it's probably a searchable string in the source code. Super useful if you'd like to see "how it's done", use some editor functionality in your tool or debug! #tip #unrealengine #ue5

Szukasz na BluSkaju polskiej banieczki giereczkowej? W takim razie dobrze trafiłeś, bo właśnie stworzyłem adekwatny Starter Pack. Daj znać jeżeli o kimś zapomniałem.

Calling Polish game devs! 🇵🇱 As more of us arrive here on Bluesky it would be great to re-create the network we've had. Here's a Polish Game Dev starter pack to make it easier. Please let me know if I should add you or someone, and consider reposting for reach! #StarterPack #GameDev #PolskiGamedev

I'm notoriously bad at social media, but @ramiismail.com is not, so I'll follow his example and intro myself! Hi, I'm dalton. I'm all about programming, tools, shaders, Unreal Engine and tons of random hobbies. Happy to share my knowledge and exp & interact with awesome people! See you around!
