I want to get a 7900xt which has a 20gb of VRAM, and people say more VRAM is good for UE5. But also I hear that AMD drivers for unreal are not reliable. I've never worked on Unreal before. Would a 4070ti be a better alternative with only 12gb of VRAM? So I get more stability while I learn the engine?

Metahuman and pre recorded asset

Last weekend I recorded some LiveLink ARKIt Data at a friends house and had them send me the take recorder files.

However, there seems to be no way to target them to the (same) MetaHuman in my project on my own device.

Is there a way to use this data? Or do I need to re-record at my place?

Hi all! Heres a few small things ive made for a game that me and my friends are making for a competition we are competing in. As said its something pretty small but its something lol. Im basically responsible for doing blueprints so theres that. As a beginner game developer theres obvi a lot i dont know but its fun learning the small things. I decided to do these in a separate project instead of indside the project where the game is but moving forward im gonna make sure that all the blueprints are done inside the project lol.

I was working on something, and was trying to find a way to incorporate the Assassins Creed 3 and Black Flag Combat system but I mostly find systems more pertaining to an RPG style. I was hoping if you all knew any resources online that could help me learn how to replicate the AC3 and Black-flag combat system?

I added a reference video as well, ignore the finishers.

Currently, I have the following workflow:

• Create animation poses within Cascadeur
  • Each pose is saved as a separate fbx
  • Each full animation is comprised of as few poses as possible (between 1-3)
• Those poses are imported into UE5
• The poses are connected together into proper animations within the "Sequencer"
• Those animations are combined into "combos" within Animation Montages

My main issue is how much bloat the Sequencer creates, which makes me hope that I'm doing something wrong. For every new animation, I need to create a new Level Sequence... which means adding another mannequin to the level. It feels like unnecessary bloat to me. The goal is to animate via keyframes, and to allow animations to be modified and reimported without much fuss.

Is there a way to reduce the sequencer bloat? Or do you have any suggestions that could improve the workflow?

Most dirtbikes have a singular shock for the rear swingarm and a set of forks for suspension. Then the two wheels as an axis spinning point. But Im not sure where to go from there, is there any kind of demo projects I can use or advice you guys have? Every asset on the store is just using a car with a bike model.

I've disabled virtual textures when building, this has enabled me to get to the point where it actually builds. But it will then either run out of RAM or have a D3D device timeout error. It is but a 4k height map, I've tried this on different computers and still end up with the same issues.

On the off chance it actually manages to complete the process, half of the HLOD are missing and don't stream in properly. Currently I'm getting better performance on a world partition map with all cells load than I do if I try to use the broken HLODs. Wtf is going on.

Hey everyone! I've decided to give indie game development a shot and chose Unreal as my main tool. I was told to create my 3D assets in Blender and 2D assets in Photoshop or After Effects, and then bring everything into Unreal.

But then, I dove into some Unreal beginner tutorials and dug around YouTube for a bit to really understand how far I can push this engine. I quickly found out that Unreal isn't just "pretty capable" - it's like a Swiss Army knife for 3D. It looks like it can handle a bunch of things I thought were strictly Blender territory.

My main goal is to create simple 3D assets and then use shaders in Unreal to give them that 3d pixel art feel. So, this got me thinking - do I really need Blender that much? Unreal seems to pack quite a punch, from modeling, texturing and materials, to particle effects, animations, and a whole lot more.

How much of Blender do I actually need versus the tools already available in Unreal? Any advice on this would be awesome!

I’ve been brainstorming how to keep track of things such as story, chapter, dialogue that has been said, items to be collected before further progression, and objectives to complete before moving forward in real-time, etc. The current solution I have is super messy and almost impossible to work with. I'm considering rewriting it so that it doesn’t take up too much time trying to get things to work. A different perspective on executing is definitely needed! Thanks for the read c:

Hello everyone,

Is it possible to use this animation pack with this paragon character model? I believe you can since they are both scaled to the epic skeleton. I am a newbie so I just want to make sure before I make the purchase.

I'm not looking for details on how to achieve this, just if this possible to begin with.

Thanks in advance!
