Final tutorial in the lightning arrow series. #vfxfriday #vfx #realtimevfx #gamdev #UnrealEngine #madewithunreal

Just finished Lightning Arrow Part 2! The charged attack now is with improved colours, timing, and a longer-lasting "sticky arrow." Fixed those mesh erosion issues, too. Next: creating an AOE attack that summons thunder strikes on enemies. #VFX #GameDev #UnrealEngine #vfxfriday #realtimevfx #madewithunreal

Also, while working on lightning VFX, I focus on building a set of VFX for this sci-fi scene. This month, it's targeting lasers and simple muzzle flashes for those turrets in @UnrealEngine #VFX #GameDev #UnrealEngine #vfxfriday #realtimevfx #madewithunreal

Working on Part 2 of the Lightning Arrow. Still early, but the plan is to build a full set of attacks for this character, all focused on the lightning element. #VFX #GameDev #UnrealEngine #vfxfriday #realtimevfx #madewithunreal

I’m putting together a free VFX Starter Kit focused on trails in @UnrealEngine It’s for anyone starting out or just curious to see how I approach things. Here’s a look at the work in progress, planning to release it in my next newsletter. #VFXFriday #vfx #realtimevfx #madewithunreal

Hey! In June, we'll put the finishing touches on the flamethrower effects in @UnrealEngine, dialling in the system rotation, adding some sweet burn decals that animate, and finishing it up with ambient ground effects. PS. I will drop some promo codes in the next newsletter -> 1mafx.gumroad.com/l/Newsletter?l… #vfxfriday #madewithunreal #realtimevfx #vfx

In Tier 2 this month, we'll explore fire creation in EmberGen, focusing on large-scale effects. Our goal is to explore more of @JangaFX EmberGen's settings for complete control over fire aesthetics, enabling you to create exactly the type of fire your scene requires. #vfxfriday #VFX #realtimeVFX

I'm also working on a mentorship program, and we will tackle the explosion in a 12-week mentorship. Here is a GIF of what we will be covering from scratch, including @JangaFX Embergen sims, textures in Substance and some bits in Houdini and the rest in @UnrealEngine #vfxfriday #madewithunreal #realtimevfx #vfx

Done working on the Dash VFX tutorial, and next is the flamethrower. Happy to do a breakdown of it next week, just let me know if you'd like to see one. #vfxfriday #madewithunreal #realtimevfx #vfx

Got a Dash VFX tutorial for @UnrealEngine coming in a few weeks. Can also create YouTube breakdown if you’re curious! #vfxfriday #madewithunreal #realtimevfx #vfx

Here we've got the trails as another element of the explosion. I think we will have 5-10 elements. Explosion, sparks, debris, trails, ribbon trails, decals etc... so once we layer all of those we will have complete explosion in Unreal Engine... #vfx #vfxfriday #emberge #realtimeVFX

I'm working on content for our mentored explosion course, which is scheduled for release in late April/May. Below are some examples of my progress in defining the visual style, detail levels and frame range. #realtimevfx #vfxfriday #EmberGen #vfx

Just wrapped up recording part 2 of the ribbon tutorials! We went over some cool stuff like making projectile and weapon trails - plus some neat tricks with soft cast and impact erosion. Also, ribbons as weapons trail are painful… #vfx #realtimevfx #unrealengine #madewithunreal

Pumped to dive into ribbons this month! We'll tackle common issues and build those ribbon trails from the ground up. Tutorial is up an Patreon and 1mafx.com #gamedev #VFX #UE5 #madewithunreal #screenshotsaturday

My next project. So excited...

We made flipbooks in EmberGen. Now, let's bring it all together in @unrealengine.bsky.social We'll create burned wood effects, flipbooks & control maps while focusing on optimization. The tutorial will be available on Patreon and 1mafx.com this month. #vfx #vfxfriday #madewithunreal #realtimevfx

OK, the portal is done, including opening, closure, and BP implementation with keyboard controls, with around 3h+ content. Using Unreal Engine 5 and SD for textures.
