Optimizing UE4 for Fortnite: Battle Royale - Part 2 | GDC 2018 | Unreal Engine

[@kait3n10]

49:40 I wish more games used this morphing impostors technique instead of the static billboards or low-poly models we usually get. It's just so elegant in solving the problem!

43:15 - "...and the quality is just unshippable". Not by Blue Hole's standarts!

Nice to see Ryan took my questions at heart and implemented them :D warm feeling with that low LOD merging for buildings.

[@RoyalCodyboy1]

We love Fortnite

[@Joelbrace2]

Will Fortnite be utilizing the 8GB of memory on the onePlus 5T as you only showed options up to 3GB.

[@MatheusLB2009]

These videos are really insightful and i don't even have interest in developing for mobile

[@PakoSt]

Amazing! Would you guys release some more information about the blob shadows at 54:50? I wonder how the shadow itself is projected onto the map as at 55:39 it is mentioned that the shadow itself is just a quad at the base of the tree.

[@gothiclampshade]

I don't think it's projected, I think it's just a quad. You can see some of them clipping into terrain in the time of day animation. You'd never notice it ingame though.

[@PakoSt]

I had mixed feelings about it or at least at which distance those blob shadows are used. Yes, the shadows are clipping directly through the terrain and it's really visible at 55:52. The shadows are clearly going through the ridge. However, what peaked my interest can be seen at 55:54 with the trees which are on the ridge itself. It would be a pretty jarring if the player can go bellow the shadow and it suddenly disappears. So either there is something more than the quads going on or it's used only when the player is jumping off the bus. A quick play through on low settings answered my question though. The blobs are only used at great distances, then fade completely off. It's still a nice effect even if it wasn't quite what I was hoping for :)

[@Donotargue]

Alternatively you could always use capsule shadows?

[@riazulrahil]

Was looking for this for so long!

[@Donotargue]

GDC 2017 or 2018?

[@Tim3Lime]

18

[@cnbragonbanana559]

16:00, which tool do you use to snap this kind of stat graph?

[@leixun]

Hi, I have the same question, have you figured it out?

[@gabrielst527]

Vulkan Version where? We need it for pc (windows and linux) and Phones (since they also support Vulkan) this is a really big improvement that will increase your playerbase since more people that can play the game = more players.

[@agentgreenland]

Why not use Vulkan on Android..?

[@lsgthedev]

If only we knew😔

[@theendurance]

BRING BACK THE OLD MAP PLEASE I BEG YOU!!!!!!!!!

[@profhua3341]

So which engine version would release the HLOD for destruction what ryan talked about?

[@Mr_i_o]

In development for a few years - contradicts what others have said that it was put together in a few months. Maybe some timeline clarity on those figures would be helpful to those who are curious how quickly Epic Games can bake a cake.

[@DesiredHeadshot]

Why?
