EP3 of The Night Shift is live! 🚨 Our first Animation Dev Diary is here, showing the behind-the-scenes production of our #UnrealEngine short film. Experiments, challenges, AI workflows, and the chaos of building this project after work hours 😅 🎥 youtu.be/9YV2hD12bs0

@EMarkov91947 @ihtesham2005 Yeah I know! But I still think it wont make asset packs worthless. But thats only my humble opnion

@ThiagoUnreal @ihtesham2005 This is the worst it will ever look. Keep that in mind.

Unreal Engine asset packs are about to be worthless. Tencent just shipped HY-World 2.0. You type one sentence. It outputs a real 3D scene with meshes, point clouds, and 3DGS that drags straight into your game engine. Renders in real time on a consumer GPU. Phone video in, digital twin out, one forward pass. The marketplace economy of selling 3D assets just had its Napster moment. github.com/Tencent-Hunyua…

Doing a shortfilm with a friend of mine in #UnrealEngine. We are making these cool puppet characters. Finished the hand this morning, took me a little over 1 hour but I'm happy with the result!

@VR @ihtesham2005 Yes thank you. Make sure to follow me on youtube and linkedin. imdb.com/name/nm7353847…

@ThiagoUnreal @ihtesham2005 Have you seen your work?

@ToDeforNotToDef Super charming

Love ultra realistic graphics and life like animations? Me too. Unfortunately I'm a solo dev, so you're getting stylized models and goofy animations instead. You're welcome. 🫶 #indiedev #gamedev #blender

Have you ever heard of Vertex Animated Textures or VATs? In this video I show how to use and bake them in @UnrealEngine youtu.be/xxehQKbgO4Y?si…

@qilvo729 I posted a video about it and how to bake in Unreal Engine a little longer than a week ago :) youtu.be/xxehQKbgO4Y?si…

تعلمت شي من هذي التغريدة: فيه شي اسمه Vertex Animation Texture وهو الي مستخدم في انميشن الجدران… عبارة عن انك تسوي bake للانميشن في البرنامج ويتحول ل texture وبعدها تستعمل شيدر في اي محرك ويصير يشتغل على الGPU ويخفف الضغط على الCPU انترستنق والله، اول مرة اسمع فيه وجدا مفيد.

@VKyriazakos @ihtesham2005 I will check the tool! Thanks for letting me know

You’re right, maybe only for previs now, but nearing production grade and will 100% get there eventually, as did code and text and images. We’re making sure that creators have the latest and greatest tools directly within the Unreal Editor without needing 100 subscriptions and browser tabs and exports. studiotwin.ai Always open to hearing from the pros how they see AI fitting into their UE workflow and what they’d like to see us build next, feel free to DM me if you check us out :)

@VKyriazakos @ihtesham2005 We are already there with some models. I use Tripo professionally and the quality is amazing. Even the Tencent model is good. The whole point that OP is missing is that this is not replacing marketplaces because is targeted on three.js applications for web.

@abdielenginerr @ihtesham2005 In the video they are either bloated sdfs to mesh or just glorified projected skyboxes. These people are all hype and no breaks when talking about AI. Clearly they dont work professionally with the medium. I can make AI generated assets that look professional, these are not it

@ThiagoUnreal @ihtesham2005 Yes thank you for saying this. I was about to say haha. Maybe good for concept art though.

@SgtPepper901 @ihtesham2005 Yeah and its just ai bro talk. I use AI model generation everyday and this is not it

@ThiagoUnreal @ihtesham2005 "about to be" and "napster moment" doesn't mean it's currently there

@VR @ihtesham2005 Said no one ever. Not everyone is a noob like you to be impressed by shit

@ThiagoUnreal @ihtesham2005 What a dumbass thing to say.

Added a export option for Cubemaps. Which is mad useful for games. They export as HDRs

You can now render  360° Equirectangular images with @ChatGPTapp .... Now all you need to do is merge into a single HDRI image... Which I'm already working on a web app (part of TextureWiz.com of course) for that. Using @Lovable. You guys should sponsor me..

@Iancu_ai As it is right now, none of this would look good in a movie theatre. Resolution and depth color is still an issue. Without proper support for high dynamic range, layers for compositing, it will take a long time for this to be used in production

The MPA and Disney just hit ByteDance over Seedance 2.0, claiming "massive copyright infringement." 🎬⚖️ They say it’s about protecting IP. But watch this video (made by a Chinese creator on Douyin), and you'll see the real reason Hollywood is panicking: Survival. A CGI shot of this caliber used to require a massive VFX studio and a multi-million dollar budget. Now? The cost is practically pennies. 🤯 #ByteDance #Seedance #Hollywood #AIvideo #VFX

@dangreenheck This is really awesome!

I was tired of hunting for good looking tree assets that didn't cost a fortune, so I decided to make a tool to generate my own. 50+ parameters, direct export to GLB, 100% free. Try it out 👉🏻 eztree.dev

@PixelatedDreamz And all the textures are available to use? I need to try that out

@ThiagoUnreal You need to create new materials and apply them to the instances in the world

Here's another environment I created using only Fortnite assets! #UEFN #Fortnite

@drtypography Or just use a svg?
