The most world-class game engine to date, Unreal Engine 4 gives you the power to do more than ever before. Bring your creative visions to life directly in game without programmer assistance via the new Unreal Blueprint.

Unreal Engine 4’s architecture offers fully dynamic lighting features, cutting down on development time and ensuring less iteration on creative ideas. With significant new visual features, Unreal Engine 4 enables you to achieve high-end visuals, while remaining both scalable and accessible to make games for low-spec PCs.

If you wish to add mod support to your UE4 game, we recommend the use of the Unreal Engine 4 Engine Mod Browser and Manager Plugin created by mod.io, which makes it easy to support UGC.

Tool highlights/features for developers include:

  • Make updates directly in game without ever pausing gameplay with Hot Reload. This tool allows you to quickly find and edit C++ code and see those changes reflected immediately in game.
  • After an update is made, Instant Game Preview gives you the power to spawn a player and play anywhere in game without needing to wait for files to save.
  • The all-new Code View saves you time by allowing you to browse C++ functions directly on game characters then jump straight to source code lines in Visual Studio to make changes.
  • Live Blueprint Debugging enables you to interactively visualize the flow of gameplay code while testing your game.
  • Now you can quickly debug and update gameplay behaviors when they happen through the new Simulate Mode. This tool lets you run game logic in the editor viewport and inspect AI as the game characters perform actions.
  • View your game in full-screen within the editing environment with the Immersive View tool. This allows programmers to complete iterations on gameplay changes without added UI clutter or distractions.
  • Possess/Eject Features allow at any time while playing in editor to easily “eject” from the player and take control of the camera to inspect specific in-game objects that may not be behaving properly.

Introduction


When the game was announced in March 2021, I promised four chapters and three realms to explore, today I'm glad that I could honor that promise, the Final Chapter is available now alongside the transition to the Final Early Access Phase.

Members of the Alder Forge Community, We Are Hereby and Officially at the Start of the Final Early Access Phase and the Final Stretch to Launch.

Update Manifest:

  • The Final chapter is completed and unlocked, members of the Alder Forge Community who finished Chapter 3 (They're in Story Point 3.F) can progress further in the story until the end of the game.
  • Status ailments, buffs, and debuffs tracking icons are added in combat to the stat details UI.

  • A Freebie Gift DLC folder is added to where you installed the game and includes the following:
    1. PDF file: The detailed full continent map.
    2. PDF file: Val Fiery Netherwave Sangréal Bloodline.
    3. PDF file: De Roy Netherwave Sangréal Bloodline.
    4. PDF file: Sieg Vulpes Netherwave Sangréal Bloodline.
    5. 4K Artworks folder for the majority of the main characters appearing in this game.
  • Removed the combination to execute the Anima Latent Skill and replaced it with one button that you can freely set in the Main/Pause menu key binding section. (It is recommended for members of the Alder Forge Community who modified their key bindings to check both Keyboard/Combat and Controller/Combat Tabs before resuming their adventure.)
  • A full VFX and SFX pass is done for all the party members and guests as well.
  • A full VFX and SFX pass is done for the mobs alongside a few bosses.
  • NPC's Dialogue boxes and Optional Conversation Events' A or Enter buttons will fill the dialogue first then skip afterward. (If it is not filled already). The Text speed controls were added as well during Phase 3.
  • The Soundtrack from the start of the Prolepsis has changed from the "Fourth Squadron - Disc 1" to "Battle of Voxenhold - Disc 3".
  • Multiple Conversation sub-events were added to the Pax Residence during the Purple Night in the Final Chapter.
  • The Anima Latent Progress Bar is redesigned.
  • VFX and SFX pass for the characters' animations during exploration.
  • Some of the skills' SFX and VFX have been reworked.
  • UI SFX and VFX during combat are updated.

Roadmap To Launch


During the Final Stretch to Launch, I will go back to the start of the game for a quick final quality pass starting with the Prolepsis and Chapter 1 and moving forward until the Final Chapter.
The Launch Date and the moment we will leave Early Access will be shared with the Alder Forge Community a week before launch.

Kind Regards,

Greystone VS Sevarog knight | Made In Unreal Engine 5 Early Access
Made this demo using unreal engine 5, it showcases the new AI system I have implemented using Behavior Tree, Implemented God of War Leviathan Axe and destruction system using Chaos Destruction, Lighting In UE5 uses Lumen, I have adjusted some Post Processing to give the game more cinematic look, Takedown system is Implemented and work is still in progress with this. I am still learning so feel free to give suggestions.

Hi, people! I'm just leaving this here - Answers.unrealengine.com

It's a feature request for UE4 developers. If someone have similar problem, or just wanna help to add this feature to new version of engine - please vote.

Thanks.

P.S. IT'S NOT A SPAM, if you just don't care - never mind this link - it's only for developers.

Why not just use a component?

Objects are not Actors, it's just a generic classes, which don't have any components (if I correctly understand your question.)

Unreal Engine 4 is powerful, user-friendly, and doesn't require high programming skill. I create art and game design, nodes help me with programming, and all sound/music licences can be easily purchased. I can develop my game by myself :)

Hey, problem, is there any way to port maps from the Source Engine to Unreal Engine 4?

Can you port them to a 3D modeling program if you can just import it from there.
