Seems I picked the right week to give Unreal a play. 5.4 just dropped with release notes as long as a book and conveniently they have a focus on animation, the exact reason I hopped over. dev.epicgames.com/documentation/…

Quick reminder that Unreal 5.4 is ridiculously good and Godot is picking up ex-Unity devs at a crazy rate. No better time to try out a new engine and learn something new than now.

For an app that does almost nothing it sure does require some resources. Would love to see this not be an Electron monster and just make the Learn/Community tabs links to the website. Cut back the cruft on focus which is (hopefully) what the company is doing as a whole...

Suppression field debuff now also disrupts command guiding systems/radars/sensors for its duration, in additional to slowing down target. There are some debug lines and text visible. And yeah, it isn't particularly effective at short distance, unless used preemptively to block

Tried out Unity 6. I wanted to give it time to cook. 37 releases in and it crashes, hangs, flickers and is generally sluggish as heck. Unity has to make some BIG changes if it wants to stay on top. With Unreal and Godot around its hard to justify Unity for new projects

Found a bug in Unity’s UI Toolkit. While bisecting the very stable LTS release that caused it (🙄) I cannot use the debugger on builds due to the _other_ bug where it crashes on launch with the debugger enabled. Really hope this company turns things around with stability.

Using Unity and C# makes me miss the low level stuff so much that about once per year I end up making a framework in a lower level lang. The current one just got a multithreaded task scheduler before it can even load a mesh. Going wide from the start I guess 🤡

So does Meta nuking all their VR studios mean they are throwing away that game engine they made and never released? I was curious to see how a fully multidraw indirect renderer with zero legacy baggage was gonna turn out.

Breaking: Sam Altman just calculated the energy required to raise his son and made the difficult decision to reclaim his current caloric value by putting him into a protein shake. RIP baby Sammy, it’s for the best. 🫡

Breaking: after hours of intense scientific research on Reddit and X, I’ve successfully updated the ingame representation of Earth to reflect the latest discoveries. #Indiegame #FlatEarthResearch #DoYourOwnResearch #WakeUp
