@InternetHank @TimSweeneyEpic @rauchg @vercel It seems CC is having trouble with the way the pages are build up, and it s falling back to a search index. At least in our tests. We are still working on that issue. With some luck at the latest next week we hope to have addressed that. 2/2

@InternetHank @TimSweeneyEpic @rauchg @vercel Hi, sorry for the issue! We looked at it today and we addressed the 403 issue, so that should now work. Tho while doing so we uncovered an unrelated second issue with how CC is accessing the pages. 1/2

If you're an engineer, 2026 is the year when you return to the fundamentals. Unix, CLIs, tests & types, markdown. Great and accessible documentation. Did I say markdown. There'll be lots of markdown. You can now 𝚌𝚞𝚛𝚕 -𝙷 '𝚊𝚌𝚌𝚎𝚙𝚝:𝚝𝚎𝚡𝚝/𝚖𝚊𝚛𝚔𝚍𝚘𝚠𝚗' the @vercel docs: Which agents like Claude Code do by default, saving lots of data transfer and tokens in the process:

@games_inu @Keytotruth Isn't it nice ?:) We are working on improving the API pages, next week there is meant to be an update to the pages that should go some ways already.

@Keytotruth lol the thumbnail shows @Hourences userpic for some reason

New api docs pages are more pretty, but how do i find the type of this variable? (it' TArray<TObjectPtr<class UMaterialFunctionInterface>> but it's cut in the UI)

@ChaosBahamut Yes of course :) The Ball was fun to build. Old school underground levels, crushing zombie mummies with a big metal ball :)

Ring any bells @Hourences? XD

@rms80 We are not sure what happened there as we haven't touched this feature in a long while, and it worked fine earlier, but we fixed it now!

UE forums have this handy 'Copy Snippet' button for C++ code blocks...except it doesn't copy the newlines so it pastes as a single line into MSVC 🤕

@marcthenarc @UnrealEngine We are no longer Vimeo to the same extend as we did before. Let me see if we can ensure the content is available elsewhere.

@UnrealEngine @Hourences Sorry to see that video is gone. Any archives available ?

Thank you to all who attended Unreal Fest Europe 2018! We'll release recordings of numerous sessions, a photo gallery and more. Questions about the conference? Drop them in the comments! #unrealfest

@JKashaar @Luos_83 @UnrealEngine Certainly - There was a thread on the forums too with various snippet feedback. I added a reply there. The last point in the thread as to direction is a thing we'd love input on in particular :) forums.unrealengine.com/t/snippets-rep…

@JKashaar @Luos_83 @UnrealEngine I think the snippets carry a few different purposes. It could be to learn this particular setup, but many people look for a starting point or a foundation to go from I think. In which case a quick copy/paste provides the best experience for them I think

@JKashaar @Luos_83 @UnrealEngine I think pictures would be good to help visualize what the result will look like, or other such additional information. But to manually recreate dozens of nodes from a pic we've all done and it is not very user friendly IMO, even if makes you more aware of what you do

@Luos_83 @UnrealEngine Hi - we have a rating system for both tutorials and snippet in our near future plan. Tutorial ratings will probably be released first. I don't have a precise time, but my guess would be during May. Also noted on the picture option, often requested indeed.

As you may have seen - we released #UE5 today as well as our new Epic Developer Community site - dev.epicgames.com/community/ ! This has been the big project I've been working on over the last year. Welcome to the UE5 era everyone :)

@Luos_83 @TheGurneyMan Late, vacation. There was a weird hack in UE2 we had yeah, I just really cannot recall what it was called:) It was done pure in the texture/material though. When I started I had to do 32x32 tex, was great. Take a photo of a street and you could extrapolate 100 textures of it :)

@shayan_ebz Thank you :)

@vladinator1000 The only problem you might potentially have is that when the sun flips to the next day (eg goes over 0 on some of its axis) the reflection vector might possibly make the cubemap suddenly change position? It has been a while but I remember it hit an issue there

@Hourences I wonder how hard it would be to contribute to the TimeOfDay level template, it was super easy to add a night sky

@Hourences I loved your sky atmosphere tutorial 😍How do you calculate UVs in your texture samples here? I tried pausing and zooming in but I couldn't figure it out youtube.com/watch?v=SeNM9z…

@vladinator1000 Cool! Yeah I could not use a sky dome because I wanted to be able to go to space, but yeah normally a dome is indeed the best way for sure! Looks nice :)

@Hourences I used your blending technique but on a sky dome instead of post process to get it to work with clouds youtube.com/watch?v=3jY81h…

The team and I at Epic is looking for input and feedback on our #ue4 community experience - The survey will end on Sunday already, and will be an important tool for us to set the path forward. Thanks! - huge.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0T…

@dovahkiin009087 @snowchimp I can't remember if I said anything about it in the video, I think not, but yeah the camera intersection is not super accurate. I believe the idea was to try a different approach in a future release, to try and improve it if I recall correctly. It is still a preview feature.

@snowchimp @Hourences Yea in that instance! Where the camera intersects with the water. I remember seeing something about it in the “water as a feature” video but I can’t find it anymore so I guess I made it up in my head haha!

I started testing out the buoyancy component for the #UE4 4.26 water system. For the most part it is plug and play with a few adjustments required. I wish there was a proper visualizer for the pontoon locations though. #gamedev #indiegamedeveloper

@ali3ser That is very nice to hear :) Thanks!

this was the best online lesson i ever took about anything, thank you so much @Hourences ! learn.unrealengine.com/course/2842589

@Luos_83 That is really weird to see :)
