Ultra Dynamic Sky - Product Video + Quick Start (V7 - UE 5.0)

[@ZakariaKhaldi]

Man this Masterpiece deserves an Award from Unreal. You made a revolution Man. Thank you for this.

[@MichaelHurdleStudio]

You took the words right out of my mouth. Best video on KZbin so far.

[@xjuliussx]

if there will be an Oscar for Unreal products, this will be one to win it! The complexity and features added in this product is amazing! Thank you for hard work on this!

[@kobi399]

I have always been a snob when it comes to plugins, 95% of them are unusable garbage imo but this one is dope. It always works, its modular, everything is exposed no "magic boxes", a ton of features, works 100% on its own and doesn't break anything, easy to use, looks great, runs great, and all of that for only 45 bucks. 10 out of 10 would buy again, in fact pretty much everyone I know has bought this plugin.

[@BeastGamingHD]

This tool is such a masterpiece but it was difficult to find on the UE marketplace when searching for words such as "dynamic weather system" and so on. If possible, I strongly recommend renaming the product to Ultra Dynamic Sky and Weather so that anyone who does search for 'weather' will be able to find this amazing product. Thank you for the great work on it and keeping it updated for newer engines.

[@delundigaming]

oh my god, that was by far the best UE5 video I have seen out of several hundred I have watched in the last month. absolutely astounding work, well done mate.

[@thearcaneartbyjac5170]

I purchased this plug in a few weeks ago, and it is the best purchase I have ever made! I use it in every project now. I have actually wasted HOURS of my life just playing around making beautiful skies and weather in UE5. I also didn't realize it came with Ultra Dynamic weather when I bought it.. what a nice surprise! It has been a game changer. ;)

[@Tryveum]

I like how you managed to get them to look not grainy or pixelated. It makes it so much easier on the eyes.

[@FlyPimpDude]

Simply stunning! Playing around with the limitless combinations of sky and weather I almost forgot I was making a game XD. This is going to help so much especially in the level building and scenery phase as the mood can be set ahead of time and placement of windows and other meshes can be guided by how shadows and light fall in the scene. Such an amazing product :D

[@amansaxena906]

brother how can i make landscape material and apply dynamic landscape weather effect on this ?

[@jithinfrederic5581]

I don't usually comment for youtube videos often. But this is an awesome work that I have ever seen in unreal engine. Thanks for creating this top notch product and sharing with us.

[@Guilgd]

I loved when I bought it years ago, I loved it last year with the many updates that got from my old version, and now it's just gorgeous! and all as free updates. Amazin!!

[@wilismatrix9847]

I have been using this asset for a year and I have to say that it is the best of the best you can find in the UE market place on top of that it doesn't cost a lot. Thank you verymuch for making this !

[@StevenBloomfield]

I bought this on sale because so many people recommended it, and didn't pay attention to ALL OF THE AMAZING FEATURES! Looking forward to digging into all of them.

[@naufaldihilmi8507]

how much did u pay? I think i paid full price just now and it's still worth it

[@JessicaMarinaRushie]

[@gamereality6581]

You made a great job to help thousands creators! Thank you so much! This is the most exciting asset I've ever bought on the marketplace!

This is probably the best thing that has happened to UE. I am currently developing a flight SIM and I will be using your add-on to take it to the next level. Thanks so much for this

[@ifrozr]

How’s your flight sim going?

[@visionsascended]

Thanks again man for creating value to the community ! Been using this product for awhile now and can definitely say Ultra Dynamic Sky is the best investment I've made

4:20 in built documentation is the best feature in this asset 👏👏👏 thank you so much for your service to solo devs, your asset has way too much value

[@hafizmtariq]

Oooo boy. Kudos to the developers UDS. Don't have words to praise the UDS team. One of the best and logical plugins for UE.

[@Stransum]

[@PEMBYSGAMINGWORLD]

Now that is exactly how to market your product - (made me buy it) I see so many Marketplace products that are so amateurishly promoted without good video quality, narration and explanation and it is no wonder they don't sell that well. I have this video playing while i add it's effects to my Sci-Fi Scene to help me to fully utilise this product - if only all talented UE5 programmers went down this road to promote their brilliant work. 12:40 you add a value of 1 (how exactly? new to this)

[@waggerdagger2831]

Wow! This video and the scope of this plugin blew me away!

[@scottcourtney8878]

Fantastically helpful video. I just acquired this asset from the Marketplace 20 minutes ago. So far I've integrated UDS and UDW into a test scene, added the weather effects to my landscape material and the material for a static mesh, and tested out multiple weather and time of day settings. That's about as easy as one could possibly want. Well done!

[@Stonefieldmedia]

Bought it yesterday and can't stop playing with it. Amazing product. Just buy it now. No regrets.

[@JadanDuffin127]

just getting into UE5 and heard about this pack. I instantly bought it and proud to say its my first purchase, and will prolly prove to be the best! Thank you!

[@augustian_ray]

Never regret i buy this asset, it saves really really alot of time, Thank you Everett

[@ChuckstaGaming]

Holy crap! Very, very impressive! I've had this plugin for a year and only now adding it to my game! It's going to take my game's world to a whole new level! Freaking impressive level! Subscribed :)

[@navidumardaraz7163]

It would be awesome if you could provide a sequencer tutorial for both sky and weather. 👍

[@rubberdog]

What can I say but WOW, such a intuitive system and a must have for any animator. Thank you.

[@joshuatree1577]

This product is amazing. Very well done and documented

[@totemdes]

An awesome tool, no doubt. My only thought is that it needs to have a time offset relative to distance for the lightning sound effects - as we all know, light travels faster than sound, and you NEVER hear the sound of distant lightning in the same moment you see it! Something for the next iteration? Sorry if it seems nit-picky, but it was pretty glaring to me! Otherwise, fantastic stuff!

[@everettgunther929]

This is a feature already. It's "Close Thunder Delay Per KM" in the Sound Effects category. You can turn it up to a full speed of sound delay.

I'm lost!!...".So, yup, you saved me a ton of time which could have been wasted for nuthin'. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! 🥰

[@maxleveladventures]

Damn! This plugin looks absolutely amazing. I'm just getting started with my Unreal Engine journey and the breadth of features here blows my mind. I was already impressed by the day night cycle, but then it just goes on and on and on and on and on and on. Each feature is more impressive than the last and you're just blowing (pun intended) right through them. I hope I someday to be able to create these effects myself. Incredibly impressive and inspiring work! I'm guessing this was created using C++?

First, above all, congratulations on such an amazing creation! A question: Your example at 11:55 shows a material with three attributes (Albedo, Roughness, Normal). I have a material which has these three plus an additional four : Metallic, Specular, Emissive Color, and Ambient Occlusion. I’ve tried both leaving these four inputs in place, and breaking their links to the Master. Either way the outcome is bad. Please advise. Thanks

This is FANTASTIC and appreciate the effort to really demonstrate this. I'll be honest, I thought the plugin was a bit pricy and a well thought out video like this sells it. I want to confirm one thing though, a few times you mention "in game", but can all this be rendered and animated in sequencer?
