I wrote a thing for all of y'all getting into Unreal Engine and/or gamedev. Most of this is very specialty (and even engine) agnostic so hopefully many folks can find something useful here!

Since Potions' console launches shipped (crash-free!), I was able to buckle down and add new content to Game Dev Foundry, including "Stages of Game Development" with best practices! I hope these free resources help others on their

Stop just 'announcing' stuff. Ask a direct question: "What should we name this enemy?" "Rate this new shader 1-10." Make people feel like they're helping build the game. 🫡

It is unfortunate that many places in the world don't have proper laws and elected officials actually doing their job defending their constituents working in the video game industry. But Edinburgh seems to have that! I hope justice can be brought and the message heard throughout the world.

Oh, right. I can just scale up the interface when I need to take screenshots for presentations (or when my eyes get tired). Neat. Edit > Editor Preferences > General > User Interface > Application Scale.

Did you know that the Unreal Engine EULA does not mandate you to show the UE logo at the start of your game? If you want to use it, you actually need to ask us for permission to show it. You only need to credit UE in your credits, per
unrealengine.com/eula
.

Sharing for other plugin developers who want a robust system for version-gating UE C++ code. Nicer than the built-in macros, works around limitations in UHT, and even comes with a TObjectPtr converter for bridging the UE4 gap!

UE5 uses a lot of memory. TIL that >50% of it could be untracked! Would have never expected that so much memory used by core systems like Nanite or Lumen could be untracked and thus not possible to investigate with Unreal Insights
