Which one of your game courses covers the most of various aspects of Unreal? I wonder which one is the most versatile no matter of the game genre.

@variann6488 Ай бұрын

Since nanite skeletons are experimental, I am assuming that they haven't implemented motion vectors for this yet, which is what TSR relies on to reduce ghosting. But if that isn't the case and this is what we'll have in the final release, then this feature is almost unusable with that much ghosting

@cube2fox Ай бұрын

My guess is that they only included this unfinished feature because they already teased it at UnrealFest a few weeks ago. But with the release they didn't mention it anywhere in their release announcements nor in the change log / release notes, not even as experimental. So it's clear they regard it as very much unfinished. Probably 5.6 will include proper support.

At 2:51 why is everything about those big guys just a blurry mess? Is that an effect on the characters, or a side effect of nanite, or maybe some terrible AA?

@knartfocker_ Ай бұрын

TSR or TAA...

@SmartPoly Ай бұрын

think its issue with the character and not nanite

@Potentially_Hacker Ай бұрын

It's an issue with Nanite.

@lordcola-3324 Ай бұрын

@@SmartPoly The thing is, this issue is actually present on all characters. At 2:57 you can see it on the big golem guys in the back and at 3:31 when the editor is paused you can see it on the small yelow dinos too. Do you think this is a problem with all 3 of those characters? It would be really awesome if you could try and put two of those big guys next to each other playing their animation but have nanite enabled on only one of them and then see if both of them still are this extremely blurry. That should definitively tell us if this is a nanite issue.

Tried Nanite skeletal mesh on Metahuman (Optimized High), the head mesh isn't inline with body mesh. Can see gaps in-between. Not sure if it's just on my side.

were you able to get it to work? my engine crashes everytime I try to enable on the head mesh

@@SmartPoly Crashed multiple times but got lucky. Nanite on both head and body mesh, it's where I noticed a gap between two meshes..., disable nanite on body mesh but can't disable on head mesh. Head mesh broke. Had to reimport and overwrite.

I cant even get nanite to work on my metahuman. It says that nanite is enabled but when I look at the nanite triangles view its all black and not showing it as nanite

@ChatterBoks85 Ай бұрын

@@comicipedia More than likely, the problem all of you are having is that you have a translucent material set somewhere on the mesh. Nanite does not support this yet. I didn't realize this, and mine kept crashing or turning black too. But in general, I don't use any version above 5.3 because they have totally fucked up the interpolation system in 5.4 and 5.5. So many complaints about this have been made on the official forum, but epic really doesn't seem to care.

Finally! Nanite Skeletal Mesh is now production-ready. We'll finally had UE5.5 games with 60+ frames than it was on 5.0 (if only the developers update their UE5 games' version into 5.5 to utilize all of these features so far) unless if you use VSM and/or Lumen (mostly without Megalights) which slightly tanks performance. Edits: *2:54 Speaking of ghosting, maybe because the animation is so fast that nanite sometimes can't keep up, or because nanite sometimes works better in higher polygons than it was on optimized high tho-. *And also speaking of anti-aliasing, glad TSR is a better alternative to TAA (so we abandoned TAA altogether), but hope AMD and Epic update their TSR too. *(5:26 to 6:42) Yeah! The nanite issues came from the characters over both their lods and materials that aren't compatible with nanite yet (specially at 9:28 to 9:42). *Oh! Like @AndersHaalandverby said, Epic doesn't recommend us using Nanite on characters yet on finishing games, and this feature will be improved in newer versions (hope it's 5.6). And I hope both Nanite (alongside its tesselations) and Substrate (alongside texture graph that pre-made the textures) will soon be compatible to each other in 5.6.

So, I believe with the nanite on the skeletal mesh of Echo, I believe I read somewhere that it has to do with the type of material output being used. I forget if some of her materials use material attributes. I've had issues with that before.

Nantite still doesnt support translucent materials only opague and the mh has many translucent materials thats why it doesnt work. 😊

@TechCarnivore1 Ай бұрын

Are the weird effects coming from the nanite models because of the way the nanite system renders a moving mesh? It looks rough, I suppose this would work best for high detailed actors which don't move too much or move slowly.

@SmartPoly Ай бұрын

yeah, the animation might be too fast

Wth? Did I get it correctly? With the Nanite skeletal mesh technology, you can now add thousands of NPCs to a scene to make it more lively? For example, in film scenes, a neighborhood with many people as background actors, and for gameplay, a pedestrian path with hundreds of people, or a neighborhood with lively NPCs moving around, like in AC Unity?

@variann6488 Ай бұрын

This just makes each model higher fidelity and might just improve GPU performance in some ways (or make it worse if you don't use nanite correctly). Your performance will still be limited by the animation blueprint, which is what consumes most of skeletons performance, which is on the CPU. If you truly want thousands of NPC's, you're looking at a combination of Mass and instanced skeletal meshes
