Project Titan Overview | Unreal Engine

[@RS911porsche]

Nothing better than a new sample project!!

[@As_Ss]

Wow, finally a sample with Mover and on top of that an easier AsyncPhysics showcase on how to really use that thing as there is ZERO docs about it. If someone at epic reads this, please add some documentation about AsyncPhysicsTick, from setup, thru structures and why, when and how to use it, as there is nothing.

[@scs408]

Agreed. Pease add docs / tutorials for this

[@XaertV]

Thanks so much for including the feedback overview! This is a fantastic shortlist to share with our art students interested in working with UE at scale.

[@patrikbaboumian]

Congrats to all who contributed to this! Can't wait to check it out ❤

[@Epic-ArranLangmead]

FAB link updated, sorry everyone!

[@Alexandre-dz3me]

No problem thx for the work

[@florianschmoldt8659]

Great project and thanks for sharing. Looking forward to try it

[@Droxcy]

Thanks for the hard work, Arran! Enjoy the new year vacation!

[@TruzzleBruh]

Thanks for the great work!

[@gidedin]

This is SO AMAZING for new Devs to have a great grasp of how many things are done! Thank you very much!

[@ijerofei]

a lot of experimental stuff is not 100% good, but promising

[@vovozeraa]

Arctic team here :D 🏔

[@scs408]

Awesome work

[@ERBaruin]

Holy blueprints! I got to check this out

[@tmanook]

Interesting. Have been following the project for a while. Can't wait to dig in to the documentation and sample project.

[@0UTSIDER]

I just wanted to check it out, I loaded 4 regions, my GPU started whistling and my laptop turned off 💀 RIP my good old RTX 2060, I knew it was coming but I didn't expect it will come from a sample project. Anyway it's a great source of assets and knowledge on how to build open worlds.

[@samuelbass-epicgames]

I'd recommend loading in just one region at a time if your hardware is struggling, it's a massive (64km) environment.

[@maxrinehart4177]

did your laptop GPU died for real?

[@fearingalma1550]

more evidence that UE5 really needs more optimization. RIP to a real one, your laptop :salute:

[@SamuTheFrog]

Bro, it's a 2060. Call me out of touch, but technology will stale out if we stop pushing it forward just cause some people don't wanna upgrade their literally 2 generation out of date hardware. Top that, it's literally the low/budget end of the rtx 20 series. You just cannot expect to able to run modern, bleeding edge, new technology at high performance. You realize not that long ago, this was common practice? Throwing out your old hardware so you can have the latest and greatest software?? Yeah.... What changed? Nothing. People just forgot that's literally how this industry works.

[@SamuTheFrog]

I'd 100% understand an agree *if* your card was a 4060, or even a 3070 would be understandable, but not a 2060 in 2024 on Unreal Engine 5.5 bro. Come on, how dense can you be? I'd even understand if this was a *game* , but it is not, it's a *developer asset pack* , meant to be used as a sample project by *DEVELOPERS* , who typically aren't running your low end, outdated hardware. *If you do stubbornly insist on using your old hardware* , then here is an idea, *dont use ue5 known for being on the bleeding edge numnuts* Go use Unity, or since you are apparently cheap as balls, Godot. Simple solution to a simple problem that only exists because you think the world should wait on you?

[@aryanbarure1479]

It was soooooo fun working on thisssss Great job ya'll!!

[@alexeinuville2555]

Wow! This has so many clever solutions. Frreaking love it!!!

[@lokomokoyo]

This is amazing content! Project Titan and this Overview. I have inspiration overload right now lol.

[@Mr_Palmer]

Looked amazing! Hope is planned to get released

[@AlyrioNeto]

0:31 At this point I became even more anxious. Looking forward to watching the rest of the video and then studying this project. Thank you!

[@DevGods]

Hopefully more people can see the raw power of Mover now.

[@sanyi9667]

dude 37 minutes? you're killing us. this should have been a 12 hour course!

[@BACO1029]

Very cool video and teachable!! Me as a generalist and a lot of times in charge of optimization, I cannot stress enough how important is that modelers do their assets optimized out of the box... It decreases overall dev time and stress 😂, making the project more enjoyable to work on 😊👍

[@AJWForest]

not sure if developers will see this, but RegionalMarkers are not displaying the town names. also the sound manager is not working. Furthermore, CritterVillage level instancing is not working properly and disappears as soon as player enters the area! please fix this! love this project

[@bencemervay]

This is very cool and useful, thank you for releasing it! My heart aches when I think about Unity's Gigaya and how it was cancelled by clueless management. I really hope that the new management will see the value in projects like Titan and will do their version of it. As for Titan: I am very interested in the character movement setup, I will definitely check it out in the near future. Thank you!

[@dviceix]

video came out today and the fab link is already not working... i hate fab... was a bad idea and will forever be...

[@jedizhawk]

F to fab

[@DeltaNovum]

Fab and other changes have made for much much more work, barriers and annoyance before I'm able to get to some actual work and creating. It makes me a lot less motivated and keeps me from doing the work sometimes. Also their reasoning for removing the reviews/questions part is flawed imo. Sure it was being abused, but it also offered incredibly important information as to the value of a product. Why not make sure to implement systems and rules that make sure any abuse is mitigated or minimised, instead of simply removing them.

[@smaxfpv1337]

Word!! I couldn’t find my previous bookmarks and wishlist, so I found a Reddit post that said you can email them and get the old wishlist as a pdf. I did that. What did the email say? Error: there has been an error. Sent a reply that it didn’t work, and since then never a reply. Absolutely annoying. Don’t even get me started on all the other features missing…

[@Yannemal]

this project is incredibly but i am afraid to download it 😮

[@raccoon_05]

This is great! Thank you so much 👍

[@nathanfranck5822]

Amazing! I find it interesting that in order to get etuff done at a large scale there needs to be a move away from full "whqt you see is what you get" and into pipelines - spawners, terrain generators, splines etc. Art pipeline is still very important! This acts as some great RnD for showing people that you have to be intentional about your workflow and dont expect a game engine to hand you everything. Competence and thought is still required

[@84bitDev]

Some of the 'issues' talked about were great but would have loved to have more details on how to fix, why they are bad, or if there are steps to be made for future people to better detect/avoid/fix these issues? e.g. The decal footsteps issue, were they just 'removed', or was there a better solution for it? I will open up later and look for that one specifically, but just curious about general other things too.

[@unrealfab]

thanks epicgames!

[@FireF1y644]

Nice overview, ty

[@PeterLeban]

Gj guys!!

[@robertwilson1589]

Where can we get access to all the little tutorial videos you created for the collaborators? In your pre-release Unreal Fest video, you mentioned the tutorial videos were more indepth, numerous, and thorough than most paid courses.

[@TruzzleBruh]

That would be such a great resource to have. Hope you’re able to find out

[@galagast-fx]

23:52 i wonder how straightforward it is to setup the bird character to not use a glider, but instead switch to its own wings :D then add flapping behavior to inject a bit of upward impulse

[@a13ozdrpepper]

Maybe I'm blind and didn't see it, but why wasn't there a link to this video on the Fab download page? Glad I found it.

[@shannenmr]

Does this mean you fixed the bugs in the Imposter Backer Plugin in a recent update as there has been multi-year ongoing issues with it documented in the forums where people have posted fixes that then break next patch.

[@ryanisanart]

waiit, nanite doesn't work unless the mesh has smoothing group info??

[@sephtv2759]

It does, but faceted faces are much harder to break down into clusters and ensure a clean nanite decimation as it tries to preserve detail and faceted faces confuse it and thus you'll end up with drawing more triangles than you need for that specific mesh, aka worse performance.

[@DamienRamirez]

The WPO [Distance] Issue is really something Epic should of addressed & simplified in Engine with a set of.. options like LOD0-LOD4 except distance settings 200-20000 For example, obviously trial & error testing would need to be done, But it would of been a good overlooked feature for 5.5 Among other missing landscape improvements.

[@Droxcy]

LETS GO!

[@myasga]

okay,so device crash, virtualtexture resize pops and cant package project to see my frames - i7-14700k,32gig ddr4, RTX4070ti super.

[@myasga]

it need to be opened in source build (VS) - packing atm - please add text into startup map;)!

[@marsovac]

100 operations per material is excessive. It is 100 operations per pixel just to get a base color. No wonder UE is regarded as a slow and unoptimized engine if people start from such samples.

[@pavlovalor]

When you were talking about characters, you said "they". Curious to see how the character selection has been implemented.

[@VanFS3K]

This is interesting. Is there a github for it?

[@Culky]

I feel bad for the people responsible for some of the assets called out as being problematic

With all this information and the sample project, I’m curious to see how everyone plans to use it. How will you use it comment below!

[@PsijicV]

Fab page not found.

[@marknickells6097]

Surprise..

[@MScienceCat2851]

Please, for love of god, tell me how to have same rendering teqchnique as UE4. I sped all time trying to ajdust UE5 settings to be like UE4, which is far more perofrment on my low end laptop. Why UE5 and not UE4? Because UE5 had many amazing features.

[@huttyblue]

Just turn off Lumen, Nanite, VirtualShadowMaps, and anything related to raytracing. The base rendering with those disabled is pretty close to what late UE4 was using. Switching the engine to DirectX 11 mode might also help, depending on your setup.

[@SAYRESS]

damn i hate fab.. how to downloand it? i just cant figure it out. there is no project in my librarary on epic and there is no options to add it to library from fab...

[@GC-jm9bt]

16:20 why was this chosen over Mutable?

[@EmreNevayeshirazi]

Probably mutable was not ready yet when the project started.

now how long till this is scrapped like Unreal tournament 4? (I'm still pissed about that btw, game was looking amazing)

Unreal is graphical bullshit

[@MatthiasLindemann-hp2zr]

But it's quite jerky and stuttery.

[@AmbiguousAnalogy]

Fab is mid.

[@YTAliasJoeCool]

COMPLETE MESS: -You allowed to basically anyone to throw any crap in there: The result is a bad mix of different designed (stylized, realistic, phantasy...) models (low-mid-high poly...), all kinds of materials from single color to high-res PBR texture sets. -All those assets brought may cause problems, are not optimised and dont have quality standards. So people could basically only find out by themselfs the hard way what the later problems are. -The size of 100GB is pretty much wasted, even if people would use some assets, as those are basically free assets from all over the web. So if people want some of that no-quality assets, they can get them from the web directly. - Unfortunately we dont have good UE standards and quality human control here as we had from the old Unreal marketplace anymore, just like on FAB. So if you want lots of no-quality crap thrown together without searching capabilities, use this project or FAB.

[@MuromachiLines]

I think Epic games should focus on a research about AI-NPCs which are driven by ChatGPT-like LLM(Large language model). AI can change the entire experience of video games and Unreal Engine can help the application of it.

[@tsmatthx2]

[@deloford]

Its a free template you muppet, and it looks great

[@marknickells6097]

Part of the problem is U5 internal compression and up scale algorithms. Its garbage. I can do the same thing in UR 4.27 , and you don't need a CRAY Level super computer to run it.
