Introducing Epic for Indies | Inside Unreal Unreal Engine 2024-10-17 | Join us this week as we discuss the newest addition to the Epic Developer Community - Epic for Indies.dev.epicgames.com/community/epic-for-indiesJoin the Epic for Indies Discord - discord.com/invite/M2dHvYXKECEpic is committed to indie developers everywhere. Being game devs ourselves, we have a long-standing desire to help you succeed. That starts with giving you access to powerful tools in Unreal Engine that we use ourselves and making it free for you to get started—you won’t pay a cent until your game makes $1 million. We’ve also been funding ambitions through the MegaGrants program; offering a platform for publishing your games with a fair revenue-split model with the Epic Games Store; and celebrating your game successes along the way.Back in 2022, we introduced the Epic Developer Community: a place created by devs, for devs to connect, share, and learn from each other. Earlier this year, we refreshed the community experience with better navigation, faster load times, and improved the Community profiles and the tutorial editor.Now, we’re taking the next step. The Epic Developer Community is expanding, with a new Indies space for small teams. Join us in the Indies space to find one another, get the latest news, engage with industry partners, and discover learning resources. Whether you’re building with Unreal Engine or another engine, everyone is welcome.

Modular Rigging in Unreal Engine | Unreal Fest 2024 Unreal Engine 2024-09-07 | In this talk, we'll take a look at how UE 5.4's modular rigging features can speed up character creation and empower artists to get creative.
Optimizing UE5: Advanced Rendering, Graphics Performance, and Memory Management | Unreal Fest 2024 Unreal Engine 2024-09-06 | As you continue to push the boundaries of the next-gen graphics features of UE5, you may find yourself in unexplored territory with an overloaded backpack and nary a trail marker in sight. How do you find your way back to the trail? Should you be changing how you pack your bag for the trek? Was there anything you could have done before you set out to make things easier? Let’s dive deeper into debugging Nanite, Lumen, and VSM performance issues so that we can get back on to the trail. Then, we’ll learn more about managing the memory of our new graphics features, including how we can leverage virtual texturing to make sure our pack is properly balanced. Along the way we’ll learn about what we can do to make sure we’re staying on track far into the future.
Diving Deep with MetaHumans | Unreal Fest 2024 Unreal Engine 2024-09-06 | An intermediate session that goes beyond the basics of MetaHuman Creator, Mesh to MetaHuman, and MetaHuman Animator workflows. Covering best practices for the Live Link Face app, import, calibration, identity, processing, and bringing your animations and assets (clothing, grooms, etc) to a variety of other MetaHumans, both realistic and stylized, both head and body.
Gameplay-Conscious Level Design | Inside Unreal Unreal Engine 2024-09-05 | This week we'll be showing some examples of how to design your levels with your core gameplay loop in mind. We'll chat about prototyping, playtesting, and technical considerations to make sure that your level only adds to experience - not detracts. As always, don't forget to participate in our live Q&A!
Using Chaos Physics for Large-Scale and High-Fidelity Scenes | Unreal Fest 2024 Unreal Engine 2024-09-05 | The Chaos Physics system—and destruction in particular—has seen many changes in 5.4. Advancements developed for Fortnite, UEFN MetaHumans with cloth, and more now enable more realistic, performant, and engaging experiences for players. This talk explores some of our new features and improvements coming to physics in Unreal Engine, including how we achieved dynamic destruction in a huge sandbox environment; building a pipeline for creating high-fidelity clothing for your characters; and putting together a new debugging framework for physics scenes and improved runtime performance and memory usage to allow for more dynamic and expressive simulation at larger scales.
How We Used The Gameplay Ability System in UE for ‘Outriders: Worldslayer’ | Unreal Fest 2024 Unreal Engine 2024-09-05 | In this session, People Can Fly will show you how they developed character skills with Blueprints using the Gameplay Ability System in Unreal Engine for Outriders: Worldslayer. They’ll dive into the workings of the Gameplay Ability System, demonstrating how easy it is to manage dependencies between skills and how to prepare a skill to facilitate the work of other teams (such as VFX and sound). Attendees will learn about the pros and cons of the system, as well as how to augment it and what to watch out for. The session will include examples of things People Can Fly were unable to implement using the system and how they hacked it.
