I've been at the Politecnico di Bari for a lesson about #photogrammetry with #RealityScan and integration with #UnrealEngine. Had fun showing some milanese puppet from Valerio Saccà scanned in 3D. #gamedev #ue5 #politecnico #bari

It seems @jettelly.bsky.social is going to be seriously committed in publishing #UnrealEngine books. Just vote your favourite on IdeaLabs! #GAS #UE5 #AI #StateTrees #Gameplay #gamedev

An amazing #unrealengine thesis by my student Marta. #ue5 #gamedev #technicalartist

IT seems there's finally a title and a date for my book on #UnrealEngine #CPlusPlus #programming #gamedev #ue5

Some screenshots from Sofia, Marco and Francesco thesis. My students presented a crazy game named "Cocò" built in #UnrealEngine. I'm so proud of the outcome! #ue5 #gamedev #procedural #roguelite

I love when I find TODOs in the Unreal Engine source code :) #gamedev #programming #UE5

So nice when you discover that nasty little bug (that was hiding in plain sight) by adding a simple functional test you forgot to add a long time ago... #ue5 #UnrealEngine #test #cplusplus #gameprogramming #gamedev

Working on some object pooling demo for my @PacktPublishing book on #cplusplus and #UnrealEngine #ue5 #gamedevelopment #gameprogramming

#PacktPublishing just started their end-of-year $9.99 mega sale and my #UnrealEngine books are in the list! The perfect Christmas gift for your favourite game programmer… or a perfectly valid act of self-indulgence. #packtsale #gamedev #gameprogramming #ai #multiplayer #ue5

In #UnrealEngine Environment Queries are pretty useful even in non-ai related situations. As an example, you may use them to generate random locations around the querier for a spawn system. #tipsandtricks #hint #ue5 #gamedev

I am currently working on a new chapter for my new Packt book where I will be focusing on creating a full mission system based on #UnrealEngine SubSystems and DataAssets. Things are getting pretty interesting... #ue5 #gamedev #book #comingsoon #programming #cplusplus

I was kindly asked by the PacktPublishing team to write a foreword for Building Open World Landscapes with #UnrealEngine 5. The book is available here: www.amazon.com/Building-Wor...

Got a new book... #ghostsngoblins #retrogaming #retrogame #videogame

If you happen to be a cybernetically enhanced red panda, watch out! It's a bit risky out there because of a sneaky attack from Pico Tech. But don't worry! You've got a cool hacking skill that will come in handy. #ue5 #unrealengine #comingsoon #book

It's a HUGE honor to have my "Artificial Intelligence in Unreal Engine 5" listed in the Best Game AI Books of all Time by @bookauthority #gamedev #ai #cplusplus #gameprogramming #ue5 #unrealengine

Creating a safe zone (that, incidentally, regenerates health) for the main characters in my upcoming #UnrealEngine book companion project. Models by @quaternius.bsky.social. #gamedev #ue5 #programming #cplusplus #gameplay #cyberpunk

The companion project for my #PacktPublishing book is progressing pretty well... These days, I'm working on the UI elements. Thanks to @kenney.nl for his amazing (and free!) assets. #ue5 #unrealengine #gamedev #gameprogramming

So you’re crafting something for an all-knowing megacorp that owns your data, your soul, and your dog microchip? A few clicks in #UnrealEngine to add a looming tower and an all-seeing eye and you are finished. A totally original idea! ...or, is it? #gamedev #ue5 #comingsoon #book #kitbashing

Juicy... #ue5 #unrealengine #update #gamedev

I'm building a new UE5 plugin to be able to load VDB files at runtime. Any VDB on your disk. Only supporting static VDBs for now. Pretty happy with the results so far considering how challenging that was.

Kitbashing with the #UnrealEngine Modeling Tools a proper mecha-boss for my upcoming Packt book. This tool is so much fun to use and easy to work with even for a programmer like me. Original models by @quaternius.bsky.social. #book #ue5 #comingsoon #gamedev

I have partnered again with Packt to author a new #UnrealEngine book! I will be writing about advanced #CPlusPlus programming techniques. This time, I'll be using the amazing assets from #Quaternius. More updates very soon! #gamedev #gameprogramming #ue5 #gameplay #book

I've just started a new project... Stay tuned ;) #ue5 #unrealengine #book #cplusplus

I can finally share "Interludio", the final project of my student Giulia. Not much to say here, just watch it and enjoy! vimeo.com/1083810493 #ue5 #unrealengine #photogrammetry #realitycapture #shortmovie

I have just published a 3-part article (in italian) about components in #UnrealEngine and how to get the best by using them in #cplusplus: medium.com/@marcosecchi... #ue5 #programming #gamedev #gamedevelopment

Some screenshot from Giulia's final project "Interludio"; an amazing mix-and-match of physical #sculpting, illustrations, #photogrammetry and #UnrealEngine cinematics. Congrats Giulia, that was an amazing journey! #ue5 #cinematics #conceptart

A small update to my maze generation system based on Wang Tiles. I have created a tool widget that can generate persistent levels with some tile variations. #ue5 #unrealengine #procedural #gamedev Source code on GitHub: github.com/marcosecchi/... Road models by @kenney.nl

I've recently been hired for a game developed in #UnrealEngine that has been stopped for a couple of years. Working on such projects is always inspiring as you need to 'get into' the mind of other developers. You always learn something new... #freelancing #indiedev #gamedev

I've started teaching #GameProgramming at #ITSTechTalentFactory Once more, I'm out of my comfort zone... #ue5 #unrealengine #cplusplus

Added tile variants to my #UnrealEngine maze generator based on Wang Tiles; just to have some more variation. #procedural #ue5 #gamedev #cplusplus #gameprogramming
