Introduction to Day Sequence | Unreal Fest 2024

If y’all made a new unreal tournament game, I would buy it immediately

[@Elmarath]

Good Plugin! I have been using it and loving it! Really good job!

[@0xnd90sjsnjdo0sbbo0]

For the people who have used this and ultra dynamic sky, which you think is better and why?

[@HollywoodCameraWork]

That's the right question.

[@_rpr1337]

Well, UDS has a lot more features, seems to be better tied in (lol) and has a lot more systems to work with. On the other hand, this is free so yeah. If you want some basic stuff go with this i would say.

[@Sigillimus]

I prefer to use Epic solutions whenever possible just to minimize third-party dependencies, so I'll probably end up using this and learning to implement whatever else I need that UDS already had.

[@KeinZantezuken]

UDS is BP only, with all that follows with it.

[@HollywoodCameraWork]

@@KeinZantezuken Good point. I'm C++ throughout. Is UDP's logic also BP, and do you feel there's a performance hit from that? Or is it just a matter of having to push values from C++ to BP?

[@perfectionist724]

Are you guys at epic working on the water system? I realized last night that the water mesh is limited . Won't move. It would be nice if we could position it with the player

[@andrewsneacker1256]

wut?

[@yonghengshouhu]

5.5 There is a new plug-in for independent isolation and post-processing effects. There is no explanation on how to use it...

[@keithbarker239]

This solution still invalidates VSM caches right, since the sun is still moving?

[@venger5705]

Nickolas looks like Elijah Wood, anyone else see that resemblance ?

[@SATHOSHINAKOMAP]

That mic is almost better than those of those Indian KZbin tutorial kids. #GoodJob

[@xshaide]

This is nice but any competent developer(s) looking for a solution knows how basic and simple it is to setup a proprietary system

[@coondog7934]

So if one person worked on one system for about a year that means the resulting product is at least as much worth as the salary that person got for that year. Now is DS worth 80-120k? If not, that would explain why Epic isn't developing more stuff like that and rather relies on the community. Or maybe I'm completely wrong with my assumption or thesis.

[@Mortepheus]

I mean, Epic has no obligation to spoon feed fleshed out features like a dynamic sky. Features like this are niceties / extras considering they already engineered all the components that allow you to create a dynamic sky in the first place. It's sorta like if it were legos you're complaining they didn't ship it preassembled in the box.

[@coondog7934]

@@Mortepheus Fair enough.

[@kvickart]

yeah but they make that money back with the games that make money from looking good. Whether this system versus another system is the better investment is a bit subjective and probably based on some analytics. That, as well as how much it amplifies the value of the engine as a whole for Epic and customers. It leverages the property system and sequencer in a generic way, I'd say that is a valuable asset to have as long as it doesn't stomp on other features

[@SB-jx6ox]

By that logic, GTA 6 will cost 1 billion dollars per copy.

[@coondog7934]

@@SB-jx6ox not per copy, per result (1 game only). And yes, that is what that game is worth.

[@Phoenix_VR]

Thank God for the youtube X2 play speed.....otherwise would've slept a few times during that video

[@nezudev]

Geez. You must be having a bad day. Insulting someone who’s just sharing what they’ve been working on for the better part of a year.

[@andrewsneacker1256]

keep watching tiktoks, child.

[@gh0stcloud499]

Unfortunately you were awake long enough to leave that pointless comment

[@Phoenix_VR]

OMG, 12 years and still EPIC unable to make a useful day light that is realistic and most importantly performative.......you rookies need to contact the guys in Unigine and learn a thing or 2 about that from them.......

[@coondog7934]

What do you mean? This doesn't look that bad.

[@andrewsneacker1256]

UNIGINE AHAHaHaha that soooo funny.

[@bobbob1278]

You can make your own...?
