      They did mention improved C++ compile times and lowered amount of shader compiles.
      Engine size wise, either remove unused modules for other platforms or if you are comfortable with making a custom engine build, you can remove a lot of the plugins, which hog most of the space. Especially the experimental plugins

      Unity has "revealed" their motion matching Kinematica in 2018.

      When they first demonstrated motion matching in The Last of Us 2 trailers I expected that tech to take over the gaming industry by storm, it seemed so far superior to just about any other animation approach. It's taking a lot longer than I thought, but it's nice to see it happening.

    To compile faster, if you have multiple computers with Unreal loaded and they are all used to work on the same project as used by a team, then you should be able to tell it to compile on one computer and to use the resources of all the computers with the same project loaded on them. This would be done on site, so it would substantially reduce compile times and drastically reduce crashes. We are a small indie team of four, but we have 1 desktop server and 8 laptops we could network and load the project onto so they can all be used during compiling the main project on our server that has AMD Ryzen 7 3800X, 64 gig ram and 12 terabytes of hard drive space, of which 2 terabytes is an M.2 SSD.

    Hi there, I’m a regular watcher. Not sure where to message where you may see it.
    However your original video was quite helpful when deciding whether to use unreal on an M1 Mac. Since it’s been a relatively good experience with only a few limitations.
    Could you do a video about the Mac updates in unreal 5.4 and an update to the other updates since your last Mac unreal from 9 months ago. That would be awesome, thanks!

It will only be released later in the year.

      Forget APV, they are still trying to make OpenXR and ARFoundation commercially viable. They've been working on VR support for 8 years and still don't include basic things like fading on teleport in their samples. But I digress...
      APV support is the best work they've done in a while as Apple is paying them an arm and a leg for tooling. Which you can access no problem as long as you buy a pro license - because hey why let a post secondary on an education license develop for APV ;). Ah I suppose I'm a bit unity hostile this week

    I really like all of the things the epic game store is trying to do to be better for devs than steam, but good lord it just needs to be better first. It loads slows, its search engine sucks, it's library is small, the UX is awful, and there's no review system so I can tell easily if a game is garbage and I honestly can't imagine it's that much work for a whole team to just kinda fix some of this stuff. Idk, I'm not as hostile about epic games launcher as most, but I definitely avoid it when I can for now.

    The Unreal engine is garbage. At the moment, only the Epics themselves know how to work with it. All other devs produce unoptimized AAA looking garbage.
    Yes, yes, bad developers, but if EVERYONE can't create optimized games with it, then the problem is in the game engine itself. Even in Unity, games turn out to be much more optimized.
    But fools will continue to believe the advertising of “AAA graphics with 0 cost”*.
    * - rtx 4090 as the minimum system requirements.
    * - stutters and lags will occur on no matter what system specs.

      Maybe you should branch out and play more games...
      I've played a few solo dev games made in unreal 5 that look amazing and run really well on a 970 GTX... Which is a long ways from a 4090 RTX.
      Now I'd say it is fair to say that a 3D unreal game does require at least a 970 GTX. They start having issues below that. But most games nowadays recommend at least a 1660 super which is more powerful than a 970 GTX.
      I very rarely run into an indie unreal game that can't run on a 1080 ti. Which honestly is a pretty outdated GPU nowadays. But it's what I still keep in my 1080p gaming system because I see no real reason to upgrade it.
      My workstatio has a 4090 this is true, but I also just flat don't like playing a lot of games on a 4k monitor which is what's on my worksation. A lot fo indie games just look better on a 1080p screen.
