Hey, Stephane here !! I’m a UE technical artist interested in shaders and rendering ! I also do 3D Art, videography and photography sometimes. I’ll mostly share about my gamedev journey here as I start working on my game or random art and I’ll try to share as much tips and knowledge I can !!
I have achieved peak UVs in Blender, the Area View Debug is almost a LGBT flag.

If video game devs and publishers want to use genAi in their games, they are clearly okay with you pirating them.

Finally managed to get Custom Object Normal to affect lighting AND tangent space normal with custom packing to work together! Will try to do a proper thread later with the stuff I did and the resuls in case anyone is interested ! Now time to really craft the look of it all !

Cairn’s community has been speculating that we’ll release our survival climber game on THREE. While we love 3, how about we check the actual release date?

Dear gamers,
You're not mad at video game devs
You're mad at businesses and corporations and shitty decisions from upper management only looking to make a profit
Thanks
Video game Devs who are also gamers who are also just as distraught as you

"How do games intrinsically motivate players to explore" is a favorite #GameDesign topic of mine.
Many of the games that do this achieve it partially by evoking a sense of awe while exploring their worlds.
Let's talk about how that works in games

Apropos of nothing, my advice for aspiring gamedevs:
-you get better at making games by making games
-most game schools are a scam, but they're good at getting you in touch with other gamedevs
-most of the people you can learn from have already left, but some of them left books/blogposts behind

This is some really cool stuff, Epic has been working on a new RayTraced Translucency on UE5-Main that uses Hit Lighting for reflections and refraction, as well as working with DOF!! Its super early but its shaping up well.
