  • Today we launched Unreal Engine 5.4 Preview 1 with the full release coming in late April. UE 5.4 introduces a number of rendering performance improvements, including major updates to Nanite, such as Nanite Tessellation that enables you to achieve far higher visual fidelity without making meshes larger on disk.

    I've been searching for motion matching resources for quite some time now, and I almost gave up on using it for my project due to the lack of good quality material available, especially at my experience level. Even the documentation didn't help me much when I was just starting out. Now that it's production-ready and there's a project example to study, I feel like I'll finally be able to fully understand how it works. Thank you!

    Thank you very much for your work. I'm single, new to developing my game on your UE 5.3 engine from Russia. Strangely enough, you are moving on the right path in the updates, I study your engine, albeit with difficulty in the English manual or databases on UA-cam from different people, but I want to note that your people who are engaged in the engine are the best both intellectually and in new chips that simplify ordinary developers of different genres of games. I hope that it will continue to be free, with the time when payment is available, I will be able to contribute my share of your work.

Only their navmesh is worse than Unity's but an update could improve it easily I think.

      I started learning Unity about 5 years ago because it uses C# and was easier to understand than Unreal Engine’s complicated interface and C++ programming. At this point, I have a pretty good understanding of programming and game development and am able to create pretty much anything I can think of…in Unity. I want to switch to UE5 because of the graphics which, Unity does not compete at all. I tried using Blueprints, but I hate it. I am currently trying to learn UE5 with its Actors, Pawns, SceneComponents, etc. Using C++ because all of these updates that they’re doing is just unmatched to Unity and I’m jealous. 😂
