Crosshair Pack has been updated! 🎯 It now includes separate SVG (vector) files for each of the 200 crosshairs in a light and dark color scheme. Also adds a new glow effect, and the missing outline tilesheet! kenney.nl/assets/cross...
Using the Quantize node is a simple way to reduce a smooth 0-1 gradient into discrete steps. It's a great technique for achieving stylized toon shading and other stepped effects #realtimeVFX #unrealengine5 #gamedev #VFX #UE5
Most solo devs learn combat in Unreal by shipping it broken: hits that whiff, buffs that never expire, abilities that fire twice. It took me 11 shipped games to learn what works. I write it down: one free email a week on GAS and combat design. Join 950+ → www.quodsoler.com/unreal-solo...

"Let PlayStation have a Wii U generation" goes so hard.
A clear display of the limb regeneration from my latest project. I made 2 custom gore textures to blend out into the original skin texture, the groom is then set to scale from 0-1 in the blueprint. #gamedev #animation #werewolf #3dart #horror #materials #unrealengine
How have we had keyboard innovations like the Windows key (lol) or the Fn key, but still haven't made the Caps Lock key change the capitalization of highlighted text?? If I highlight a sentence and hit Caps Lock, it should cycle through ALL CAPS, all lower, And Title Case like come ONNNNN
People on Bluesky sigh and talk about The Discourse as if it were something required of them instead of something they opt to partake in, day in and day out. You really don't have to. Post about your favorite cheese
I have shipped 11 games in 10 years. Combat in every one came down to the same patterns: hit detection, damage pipelines, ability gating... Nobody teaches those patterns. So I write them down: one free email a week for solo Unreal devs. Join 900+ → www.quodsoler.com/unreal-solo...

I miss that era in the 2000s where they would make a kid's game for both console and handheld except the handheld version would just be a completely different game with the same title and release date. That was really funny.
Also, let's get pedantic af here: gen-ai has not done jack shit to cure cancer. Every cancer advancement in the past 5-10 years has been because of Machine Learning, and ML is a good thing, because it doesn't boil lakes, nor steal from anyone, and it (eventually) is WAY more accurate than gen-ai.
Hillary Monahan@hillarymonahan.bsky.social · last wk.Nobody wants predictive data models to stop working for the people in medicine. Or translating ancient Pompeii texts. Or the other ways we were already using it. We want it to stop replacing workers, killing the environment, and stealing from artists. Hope that clarifies.
THIS!!! Yes, they are just burgers. First time i heard about I thought I would see something different. They...are....just ...BURGERS!!!!

Nobody teaches you GAS. Epic ships it with the engine, Fortnite runs on it, and the docs barely fill a page. The rest is forum threads and Discord screenshots. So I teach it: one free email a week on GAS and combat design for solo devs. Join 850+ → www.quodsoler.com/unreal-solo...

I've been saying this for years and I'll say it again now, the whole graded games market is DUMB I've never bought a graded game, and I'll never get a game graded. It's a spectacular waste of money. Stop doing this.
