If you want to outline a thing in #UE4, you can do it in the object's own material (i.e. no post process or extra mesh overlaid), using custom depth, with some limitations. This isn't a huge win, but it's useful to simplify some things like editor tool visualisation materials. 1/

@MilkyEngineer Just posting here on the off-chance that one of you tried/managed to get one of these dropdowns working with this stuff? I feel like I'm so close and yet so far @jkelly206 @HighlySpammable

Scratch that, submenus are off the menu! (apologies folks). Check your logs for any types that aren't supported currently.

Did you know @UnrealEngine 4.26 brought in the ability to extend editor menus and toolbars using Blueprints? #UETips #UnrealEngine

@MilkyEngineer I’d like to see a cage match between you and whoever did the “named reroutes” in materials, for the top honours.

Did anyone notice the QoL additions for Custom Primitive Data in #UE5? - Parameter names in details panel, will jump to their declaring node on click - Colour picker - Warning for overlapping param names - Quick add/delete - Defaults from material/instance values #UETips

@IamDeanTate @UppercutAJ Hey Dean, never did Inf or SF, a lot of Jailbreak - we never worked together but lurked in the same circles :)

from the awesome creative mind of @TheRealSpoonDog who designed this level

It's a friggin' cargo ship. This scenery is just so cool! 😮 #Submerged: Hidden Depth is amazing. Just what I wanted from a sequel to the first game. Thanks @UppercutGames and congrats for the successful #Steam release.

@keinzantezuken @t_looman @JKashaar @UnrealEngine Never fear, it is a standard function with UE4, check it out!

@TheRealSpoonDog @t_looman @JKashaar @UnrealEngine It is a non-standard function so I can't double-click, let alone on a static image but thanks for the response.

Soft, variable-color outlines for pickups, using "mini-post-process" sprites for easy per-object coloring & fading (& avoid full-screen post instructions). WIP. Thanks to @t_looman for his soft outline experiment & @JKashaar for HLSL stencil sampling help! @UnrealEngine #gamedev

@keinzantezuken @t_looman @JKashaar @UnrealEngine I’m far away from a computer but you can double click on it and take a look! I think in a nutshell, it computes camera vector per vertex instead of per pixel. So it’s required if you want to use it in the vertex shader (or via vertex interpolator / custom UVs)

@TheRealSpoonDog @t_looman @JKashaar @UnrealEngine I know it is an ancient post, but what that material function CameraVectorWPOOptions does under the hood?

@direGoldfish @glassbottommeg @PartlyAtomic I remember even chumps being pretty perf-hungry. I'm sorry we had to gut some of your chumps.

English

Gwen Frey@direGoldfish·7 Şub

@glassbottommeg @PartlyAtomic For perf reasons we couldn't afford to have proper AI pathfinding around, so most of the background characters were "chumps". And we didn't have a ton of resources for dlc so I was mostly reusing animations from the base game.

@_Jambax “At times”… all the time if you ask me

James Baxter@_Jambax·19 Ağu

Multiplayer really feels like 10x the workload at times. Some aspects of this AI-Command system would be so simple for offline, but online *really* ramps up the complexity. I enjoy it - but it'll be a miracle if I ever complete this project. youtube.com/watch?v=HHH89y…

@mozidesigner I’ve always thought 1 too.. that’s funny I was watching “The River Wild” yesterday and thinking it had some tame Cliffhanger vibes, and thinking I needed to watch that again

English

Awais Ahmed@mozidesigner·31 May

Re-watching Cliffhanger after many years. Two things came to mind. 1. John Lithgow's character sounds like an off brand Stewie from Family Guy 2. The Sega Genesis game of the IP was pretty brutal (dating my self here)

@NewZulund Should be able to get around it by wrapping with scale box or some such I think

@johnkearns_ First shot looks a bit like a Graboid (from Tremors)

@NewZulund The text box doesn’t happen to have both “auto-wrap” and “wrap at” set does it? (that got me today)

English

Cory Spooner@TheRealSpoonDog·4 May

@ChrisZukoArt It does make it easier to exit bad dream situations if you’re semi-conscious.. but I find they just keep on repeating anyway and ya wake up real stressed. Then you have a choice of taking ages to get back to sleep, or continuing the dream where it left off..

English

chriszuko@ChrisZukoArt·1 May

I need to find a way to sleep better. I had a recurring nightmare that I am 90% sure I had control of because I KNEW what was gonna happen next and made choices based on that. Also I was calm in this go of it... Which was super odd.
