Black Eye v2.1 is almost here - huge new features and UX upgrades.
Blend CineCameras with different Sensor Sizes, Crop settings, and Anamorphic Squeeze. Unreal Engine can’t do this without Black Eye.
This demo level is included so you can try it yourself.
Working with cameras in UE? Get Black Eye on Fab.com
Good cameras make great projects.

The guy who was arrested yesterday outside the Palestine Action court case for pausing too long while singing “In the UK it’s illegal to say I support Palestine Action” has predictably been released without charge. nitter.cf/airbyart/status/211813…

UE Tip: The Format Text Node
Instead of chaining Append nodes for UI text, type something like {Name} has {Health} HP into the Format pin. Each {word} becomes its own input pin.
The output stays Text, so it's still localizable.

Today, we are challenging the legality of the Palestine Action ban in the Supreme Court, on the basis that it is disproportionate to free speech and the right to protest.
You can watch it live from 10.30AM on the Supreme Court website: supremecourt.uk/

Hey @TimSweeneyEpic, many people have questions and concerns about the future of UE6 with the recent news. Would you be willing to do an interview to help give indies and studios of all sizes some clarity and answers so we can all start planning for the years ahead?

Steam developers --
🖼 Here's an infographic that shows (most of) the capsules/banners that Steam requires. (Includes an example capsule for Witchmore, my game.)
Do you have any tips for making images that fit within the very different image sizes?

Yesterday i asked how you all market your games: i expected 4 comments, but instead over a hundred indie devs showed up.
I turned every tip, every number, every "nothing works" into one readable doc: what worked, what flopped, what to do before launch and at launch.
It's free ofc, it's for the community, it's for my indie bros who, like me, don't have an idea of how to launch a game. Properly.
Thank you all. Seriously.
Go wishlist each other's games now.
You can download it from the link in the first comment👇

Join us this Thursday, May 14 at 2PM ET alongside Sid Narayan and Shannon Luong of Another Dimension Games to talk about their pipeline for modding and development➕
Unreal Engine 5 enabled them to build a runtime mod system for their game that lets players easily install community content like new weapons, skins, dialogue, abilities, and more simply by dragging and dropping mod files into a folder: youtube.com/live/rHF3VdA_0Js

In this episode, we take the simple terrain layer function we created last week and expand it into a full, 4 layer terrain shader that uses height-based layer blending - in both Unreal and Unity.
