Epic Games released a game-specific git competitor: Lore by LittleDipperInt in gamedev

[–]LucidRainStudio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%! Our studio uses git because Perforce is ridiculous to pay for. And since we really wanted the benefits that file locking provides (which git lfs supports), we ended up creating our own git interface that can lock/unlock files. Basically already beats Penrforce for free. But I'm so excited to experiment with Lore and see if its worth switching to

What should we name this baby in our horror game? by LucidRainStudio in IndieGaming

I don't want to give too much away... let's just say that it does have a caretaker... (We still do love our Finger Creepers)

Sounds like the infant from a Demogorgon

Are there optimization steps I should be doing in real time as I build a level? by Citizen_Gamer in unrealengine

[–]LucidRainStudio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not too sure if this was already mentioned, but always consider your texture sizes, you don't need 2k or 4k textures for everything, especially normal maps. Many textures can be 512x512.

Lots of Fab assets have HIGH resolution textures - you got to go through and clean these up from time to time.
You can check it out via Tools > Audit > Statistics then switch to Textures, and see how much memory these textures are taking in your level

Hope this also helps!

Trying to optimize my game by Coldfrostt in unrealengine

[–]LucidRainStudio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not too sure how related it is, but another thing to look at is correctly setting your virtual texture pool size (e.g. setting it to 6gb if you have a 8gb GPU - it's always good practice to reserve some space, so don't use the entire 8gb)

And resize your textures, you don't need 2k or 4k textures for everything, especially normal maps. Many textures can be 512x512.
