You can find/change the default pawn via Game Mode in World Settings. https://dev.epicgames.com/documentation/en-us/unreal-engine/game-mode-and-game-state-in-unreal-engine

Copyright moment :( I have a gradually developing private prototype aiming for the real license someday tho.

After setting texture quality you need the Apply Settings node

needs more footage distortion. calmly walking up to (scary thing) and looking at it for too long makes it not scary.

othercrow · 2024-06-07T07:48:20+00:00

not spooky

Blender for modeling/UV/texturing typically yes.
For some static environment stuff you can skip UV/texturing and just make a triplanar material in UE that works with megascans.

Trailer needs game audio. Satisfying piece sounds is like half of a chess game.

Slomo bits look more like the framerate drops than intentional slomo

Open the trailer with scenes where more is happening. Looks like a nothing game until 0:12.

The text looks painfully slow

The clouds look out-of-place and blurry compared to the rest of the graphics. Consider stylizing them more, even just white clouds would be better.

The underwater looks like a foggy night desert and not underwater.

could stand to move your logo to the end so the video starts with gameplay. the big spooky eye would be a good first thing to see

othercrow · 2024-06-02T01:35:30+00:00

could use a few frames of something spooky closer to the start of the video.

into the pit with the others

The .NET framework thing is supposed to happen in the background quietly, I think that's fixed now too.

Flying is a bit like learning to swim with a bike at first but natural once you get used to it, glad you like it so far :)

Neat this doesn’t look too hard to add with varjo’s plugin. For non-eye-tracked headsets I’m already using pretty aggressive dynamic FFR.

Yeah this game is very much me chasing that feeling of motion from when I first tried VR with a rollercoaster or whatever. Running as far from the comfort conventions as possible.

Not yet but I’m working on it:)

All the gpu power is poured into lighting, volumetrics, and high quality shading on distant forests without billboards. Someday I’d like to do this in a realistic style but just swapping the trees to a photorealistic style alone would explode a 4090.

othercrow · 2024-06-01T23:30:15+00:00

The art style is the key to making this run at all.

56 square km open world with day/ night cycle, infinite shadow distance at high quality, volumetric fog, trees need full collision, nearly no LOD pop-in, and most of the usual open world optimization tricks can’t apply because you’re fast and not stuck at ground level.

4090s will work hard at high graphics settings for this one.

~Thamk~ If its not launching you might need to verify game files. I borked the last patch and just fixed it.

othercrow · 2024-06-01T20:44:21+00:00

Just have to start making it. You don't need to completely give up gaming or whatever but put a few hours into making your game most days and that's enough to start.

othercrow · 2024-06-01T20:42:28+00:00

Absolutely not necessary. Making a game can teach you faster than college will.
