Most games make their corpses disappear, but in Starship Troopers: Extermination, they don't only keep them but also replicate and let players walk on the piles of corpses. See how they did it in this Unreal Fest talk on their "Carnage" system: youtube.com/watch?v=dengjP… #uetips

TIL that UE 5.5 new Tick Batching does not sort by class at all, and is completely different from what I thought. It instead checks for things like matching tick prerequisites, start/end tick group , !bIsHighPriority, and bAllowTickBatching on that particular tick function. So…

Cool enhanced input feature I was not aware of (knowing about this would have saved so much time in previous projects. I am in mourning).

I recommend Unreal - flat out. It’s fun to play startup to startup, with unity and godot But, if you want to do Business, go with a proven Enterprise. Don’t waste your time.

I didn't expect a profiling talk to become this popular, so I'm super stoked to see that "Maximizing Your Game's Performance in UE" has passed 100,000 views! Glad to see so many performance conscious developers, and hope it helped many upcoming games! ❤ youtube.com/watch?v=GuIav7…

My project, that I've been pouring my heart and soul into for 3 years, has just been cancelled at phoenix labs and myself and the entire incredible team have been fired. We were weeks away from announcing- I'm just numb and heartbroken, but I'm definitely available for work now

WELL. Our cancelled project of the last 3 years is officially, truly dead as of today (internal attempts to save it failed), and the embargo on the whole body of portfolio work has been lifted. RIP Project Dragon. Brace yourselves for the largest ever art bomb of work I loved 👁️

if you didn't know about Cheat Manager extensions in #UnrealEngine, now you do! I find them particularly helpful for plugins that I reuse in projects.
