so i tried the mac UT4 pre alpha thing and it worked fine for all maps except the default one which ran at a good frame rate most of the time but just randomly chunked loading assets, then repeatedly chunked loading those same assets when i turned back around it didnt even touch my VRAM so idk

unreal engine 4.7.1 on OS X 20 minute trip report: slow as hell, buggy as hell edit: the editor follows my mouse around even when another app has focus. Like, as I type this in Safari, if I move the mouse around (entirely within Safari's window), I can see poo poo getting highlighted in UnrealEd behind it.

for reference or context I don't actually think ue4 editor is an excellent piece of software. there are numerous niggly things I don't like about it but mostly are minor and don't affect my game making . I like it because it lets me make what I want quickly and easily and I can see the results virtually instantly

not sure if Mac has same options but the "run in new editor window" gives good performance, like the editor, but as a new app it doesn't. something to do with the editor stops to play game if you run in editor but as new app it doesn't

So Unity 5 is out, free with no royalties, and you get all engine features. There are some optional, non-engine things you can get in the $75/month Pro version, like Unity Analytics, but it appears you get all the actual engine features in the free version. Realtime global illumination, physically-based rendering, PhysX 3.3, etc., free with no royalties. Plus they finally added iOS 64-bit support, and have Metal support as well (UE4 has had both of those for a while AFAIK). Still gonna give UE4 and honest try, but drat is it slow as gently caress on Macs.

To be fair, though, we're talking about a 2011 iMac with a 2.8ghz quad-core i7 and an AMD Radeon HD 6770M (with only 512MB VRAM). Still, I would've thought a basic scene with a wall, a floor, and that round table that comes in the starter content pack should be able to get more than 35FPS.

is that once built and running? or in the editor. although tbh my experience is that it doesnt matter much in the runnning game hit ` to enter the console and use "stat net" and it will tell you if its the draw, gpu or game thats taking up time i get significantly more fps than that but ive a 4690i5 w/2GB gpu i mean, i thnk the graphics engine is efficient, given some of the enourmous amounts of assets some people are having in they games also the ue4 analytics thing is awesome, it gives you millisecond breakdowns for every single thing that its doing and i

i think carmack is done with rockets. the armadillo aerospace website hasn't been updated since early 2013, and all his tweets are about oculus and 3D graphics.

gamebryo has inferior shadows which is why its so horrible. other than that its looks ok skyrim was gorgeous in places makes we wonder who was first to do free, if ue4 did it first or unity weas going to do it, and ue4 got wind and beat them anyway, good enws for game developors, bad news for anything wanting to choose a game. the market is so saturatead as it is now its going to be shocking gta5 out for pc soon thop

I haven't done either yet. All I got the chance to do yesterday was put in a floor, a wall, that round table, and then wonder why it ran so poorly. will look into it more tonight.

LOL that the CoC game programming thread is full of people complaining about not being able to use C# for UE4 like they can in Unity. The actual UE4 forum thread linked to in there has a guy complaining that he can't use Delphi "because he has 15 years of Delphi programming experience".

He has 15 years of Delphi experience and seems to refuse to learn anything else. UE4's license says you can use whatever language bindings you want, and can even publish them for others to use, but they have to be free and open source.

UE4 is written in C++, and having all your game code be C++ all the way from bottom to top means you can actually add new object types, expose new functionality to BluePrint, etc., whereas to keep things sane that guy's studio is adding their C# binding at the BluePrints layer, so all they can do is build upon the public BluePrint API exposed by the C++ classes. Can't wait to get enough time off to start digging into UE4.
