I heard y'all like parallax these days. So how about some triplanar quaternion based parllax?

Today, we start a new series of videos on using Unreal Engine's PCG to create environments. In this video, we talk about what PCG is and why you should use it. Then we use the system to place some simple assets in the environment. youtu.be/NZLtrWLNTes

I promised to show you my Unreal Engine material "Line in Grid" function code, so here it is. Of course, it can be improved, but right now I have other tasks. I do level design #gamedev #UnrealEngine #UE5

how to straight up straighten uvs 🧍

Unreal Engine tip! You can use a components “Custom Primitive Data” AND an instance’s “per instance custom data” to offset your material world positions. This allows you to adjust tile offsets (and whatever you setup) in the details pannels of the editor, when playing with a component or instances unreal engine uefn gamedev indiegamedev UE5

Some great use cases of where we should use soft edges using Fresnel in Unreal to get the amazing effect by VFX UA. #UnrealEngine #GameDev #vfx

This is still honestly insane

You can use the depth buffer with a bump offset function to mask sprites by depth and conform them to the geometry. This is especially convenient for dynamic fake light, UI elements, character damage effects… #realtimeVFX #UnrealEngine #gamedev #vfx

mimalloc is great, however there was a lot of performance on the table for Unreal Engine 5 specific needs. Double digit percent uplift for single digit memory footprint cost. Compilers are smart. Turns out.

Shaders and Procedural Shapes 👉🏻 jettelly.com/bundles/usb-ve2…

Distorting UVs can be a great way to add variation and achieve certain effects. For example, this shader pushes and pulls the UVs for a bulging or pinching effect. A quick way to add depth to panning textures #gamedev #realtimeVFX #UnrealEngine #indiegames #VFX
