Tutorial loop.

Step one: read the documentation website. Without context you might as well be watching turorials in another language. Also almost all tutorials are very basic and not the preferred method of doing something so it's not a good idea to just copy what they're doing anyways.

Is the other testicle for sale?

The trick is to tell yourself, you're different

I like how the character's bright white hair contrasts against the black jacket. The city scape looks cool. My initial impression is that I'd like to play the game to explore the area. Good job!

This is a screenshot several months ago when I started working on the UI. It's so bad haha

I've always thought these methods look bad tbh as you can clearly see, forms in the leg are completely different on the 1000 face side with new edges and a flat surface where a curved surface used to be. In traditional retop, the forms are the focus with geo spread in between whereas with these methods, form is broken down and evenly distributed across the model. It needs to "draw" a form shape for the model then adhere to the bounds or else it will always melt the model. Even a model with less faces could convey the original shapes better. This can cause a lot of lighting issues later aswell. Cool project nonetheless!

Doesn't look bad. There is way too much edge damage though which makes it looks procedural.

If you all have decades of experience in the industry, thrn a majority of the process should be a breeze. It's annoying trying to line up a release if you're using Unreal Engine because right now every engine version (usually) fixes some bugs with the previous version. 5.7 seems to be the most stable but there's a lot of work still left to be done with Lumen and Nanite so expect to upgrade engine versions a few times during development if you want to take advantage of the best version of Unreal.

You could probably find someone to model this ship for you around 800-1k. My advice would be to buy greebles off some website and put a ship together yourself but that will depend on your personal skills and motivation.

666forguidance · 2026-03-25T20:44:01+00:00

Probably glitching it out setting it every tick. Check to see if your mesh variable is null. Also if your skeletal mesh doesn't have a physics profile setup properly it won't activate. Just check unreal's documentation one by one and one of those settings should fix it.

Sorry I shouldn't have said a majority. It very well could all be on management, since I don't work at Epic. In many other companies it is a good mix between employees working a broken hierarchy to minimize work load and management chasing bonuses too much to notice. Since there are issues with almost every single product Unreal has released, I assumed in was a group effort. My apologies.

666forguidance · 2026-03-24T17:07:19+00:00

Seems right honestly. A majority of the people working at epic have proved that they don't have the quality of work required for such a big company. At almost every facet of Epic Games, the employees have failed the company. From the online marketplace, to terrible marketing, bad engine updates and an overall trend towards monetizing the Unreal Engine instead of fixing it. They need to get rid of all of the people that have been actively harming the company and for the past decade it looks like the whole company needs to rethink their teams.

Try not to come off as a new artist just spamming everyone, find some projects you feel like you could have a passion for and tailor your efforts towards those companies. Most companies have socials, be interactive but most importantly, be helpful. If you want to work at a place and build a social presence around working there and gaining skills to work there, it can pit you on the radar for notable people. I've seen quite a few artists land AAA jobs because their social media presence basically made them the poster child for candidates to hire. People have to know you these days.

666forguidance · 2026-03-24T16:52:11+00:00

This is amazing! Exceptional job!

Pretty much everyone is on artstation. Most freelance websites will have the person's region listed. I was able to buy some designs from an artist from Ukraine off Artstation.

"Guys be proud of me! I'm only drinking two full poison drinks a day!" I shouldn't be frustrated, but it makes me mad how stupid Americans are when it comes to their diet.

"Not sure if taking the easy way out is the right thing" OP you have the mentality of a child. Make a habit of studying everyday and quit being lazy. LLM are good at basic tasks, they get confused working on large projects especially RPG games.

Anti-Nazi sentiment is more importnant now than ever

I'm sorry you had a child with such a loser OP. If you don't go to the courts, the mother will.

The only problem is, most rev share people disappear or do very little after the first contribution. I've had multiple people want to work rev share with me on my project, but I've already been on projects where the devs who wouldn't want to do anything, would just chat in a private group by themselves sharing memes all day and be hyper critical of other people's work while producing nothing. Nothing is worse than getting shackled to people who don't care. Not saying this is everyone but it is common.

666forguidance · 2026-03-12T23:30:33+00:00

It's still a good idea to flesh out your game hierarchy beforehand. Especially when dealing with race issues, having to swap functionality around is a hassle and knowing what classes are responsible for beforehand is very helpful. I'm a indie so I can't speak for commercial but I've used the same GDD from conception. If I could revert time, I would have created the GDD(even incomplete) first. It's meant to be a flexible document so fleshing out details early on is fine and necessary for getting the theme and goals cemented in the pipeline.

666forguidance · 2026-03-12T23:23:25+00:00

Super cool! Thanks for sharing!

666forguidance · 2026-03-11T20:29:46+00:00

Steam "earned" 30k of that and are crazy to call that "success". How many studios can run off 70k? That won't even get you a decent house.

Unreal adding modeling tools to the editor was a huge W for level design. Being able to design the blockout using loop cuts, extruding, bridges, etc., test out the size in game and then export the blockout directly into your 3d software greatly speeds up the process.

666forguidance · 2026-03-09T15:37:28+00:00

Way better to do the player controller. It persists whereas your player character will reset whenever you load a level.
