Been watching Mysteries at the Museum a lot. And Mysteries at the Museum is one of the best tv shows to get ideas for stories. All of them are true and many can be used the basis for a great game story or environment story.

How to come up w/story for game? Story can come from anywhere but best story is always something from real life or your own life. Even if it's small but true detail that's part of story w/rest exaggerated. Always inject something from real-life or own life into game's story.

Although glass is NOT metallic, setting Metallic to 1 for UE5 Glass is a must. Otherwise your glass surfaces will look like plastic and less like glass. Just simply do a test. 0 (left) or 1 (right). And Metallic set to 1 will always look better.

Set UE5 Glass Lighting Mode to either Surface Translucency Volume (performance) or Forward Shading (higher quality) ▪️Translucency Volume: cheaper option that still allows realistic lighting w/translucent mats ▪️Forward Shading: higher quality translucency, more expensive

Experiment with improving design spaces in UE5 environments. WIP lights, interior space design only. 1. Bland, default, just a start 2. Columns to break up flat walls 3. Adding angles to open up the space, better but not there 4. Adding detail, height change & angles - better
