Bro thank you so much you are a true sensei, and I am so happy to see you've uploaded a video after a long time you didn't
Massive W
i cant find the size setting for the material instance at 2:12:02
Thanks so much for releasing an updated tutorial! Quick question, I noticed that I get fairly low frames in UE5 sometimes, such as when I tried the Medieval village bit at the end of the previous tutorial despite having a 3080ti and overall a very recent and up-to-date system. Are there any settings in UE5 that I can adjust to make using the program a bit smoother?
Wow, I was watching the first one yesterday
Can we all just take a second to commemorate this man as he made not one, but TWO FREE unreal engine 5 in depth tutorials. This is knowledge that should be paid for but is given to us for free because a legend wanted to help those who wanted to learn. Thank you Unreal Sensei!
Correct vro
It's truly incredible. It's pretty much the best tutorial out there, better than any paid one or even the ones from Epic Games. Zac just explains it way better and clearly.
More like three, if you count also the one for Blender artists. Plus, tons of other in-depth tutorials for specific topics in his channel. His Masterclass is also fantastic, definitely an amazing investment!
HAIL
Honestly, ngl, it absolutly ticks me off when people pay-wall knowlage. Imo, everyone has the right to learn as long as they are willing and know where to get it. I really respect people like this creator who don't pay-wall videos or "classes" like this and not only do they not pay-wall it, they are very informative, detailed, and well struictured. I have seen a few who will cut their work a bit and to a glossed over free version of their classes and it is just so cheep. Hats off to this creator for balancing making a living and being a supportive member of the UE community.
For anyone that finds themselves seeing an empty desert at 3:50 instead of the table and the chairs:
Go to File > Open Level...
Now (assuming you had correctly ticked 'Include Starter Content' at the Project Creation screen), in the 'Open Level' Dialog, navigate to 'All/Content/StarterContent/Maps' and select 'Minimal_Default'.
Thank you!!!
THANK YOU!!!
Thanks buddy !!! Was lost....
Dude, you saved the day. I tripped on the starting line and thought I'd never catch up :)
Thank you!
For anyone following along in 5.4 that can't find the Bloom/Exposure settings under Global Process Volume at 32:20:
The Global Process Volume doesn't appear to be in 5.4, instead it is PostProcess Volume. To get the Exposure settings menu press the +Add button at the top when you select PostProcessVolume, and then select "Post Process" which is under Rendering. That seems to be the same menu that he's using in the tutorial.
Thanks for taking the time to write this comment! To add to this, to get the settings he adjusted to appear in the details pane, I had to close out the details tab that Unreal had open (clicking the 'x' of that particular tab) and then re-open the details pane by going to Window>Details>Details 1
@@kip388 Thanks for taking the time to write this addon :)
@@kip388 BROOOOO THANK YOU SO MUCH I SPENT 30 MINUTES! trying to figure out where the details menu went!! youre awesome
thanks
If you love games (I'm 37...ugh) LEARN NOW....I can't stress this enough. I grew up with Super NES (90's) and always pushed it off next thing I know I'm 37 in my living room trying to learn regretting never learning in my early years. Trust me....time will FLY. NEVER too late but starting early is the best not to mention you have FREE teachers! It's crazy how lucky we are now a days.
Thanks for the in depth tutorial!
same here i am 37 and learn now
Almost 37 (36), just starting my journey! I spend all day writing code for my job, so the fact this isn't a requirement in UE anymore was a massive part of what attracted me to this engine.
@@Jongo1 Same here except I'm 32 🤣
here, here 40 this year! and just getting started - good fun so far :)
To anyone just starting, they've changed the starting level for blank projects to a sort of desert-ish landscape. To find the level with the chairs and table, go to File > Open Level > Minimal_Default.
Oh dude super helpful, thank you!!!!
Great tip. Thanks
Hey, i couldnt find the minimal_default option , and i have a ball like thingy spawned half 😅 is there anything i got to do?
@@muralikrish2690 see i was facing the same issue so in the folder starter content u will find
Maps inside map there is minimal default
@@asrarsheikh64 thank you so much 🙌
As an Unity refugee, I really thanks you for making this video. Really helpful!

You are a god
As an 18 year old who has played console all his life and never touched a pc my family recently got a gaming laptop and I was stoked. I love creating things and making games and stories. Your videos are so helpful in getting me started with understanding how UE5 works and I want to say thank you. Hopefully you can inspire more people like you did me. 😎👍🤘
I look forward to see what you will create! Best of luck in your journey!
I can’t wait to see what you’ll create
exactly my situation rn hopefully we both go far bro
Hey thanks homie when I clicked on this video, and see 5 hour video had me bit scared. Though reading your comment and having a similar story at 20 is giving me motivation!
If things like this were around when I was 18 I'd definitely be doing this all my life :D
I am a retired backed programmer, over 45 years C/C++ in UNIX/Linx. I have decided to learn VR. First was Unity, now Unreal. Wow, if I was still working I would send you a thank you gift. This video is amazing. When I finish, I will be looking for more of yours videos. THANK YOU!
Lol 😂😂😂 your comment reminded me of many steam game reviews which starts with as a 70 year old gamer, this game saved my life
What a time we live in when you can get such a tutorial for free!
Went to college for 4 years and never got this level of comprehensive teaching. What an amazing video
u didnt pay attention then lmfao
@@swoodc Not true actually. I am in Bachelor of Science in Interactive Entertainment and Multimedia Computing Major in Game Development, and I will say that Unreal Sensei is way ahead of most of my professors teaching us students.
@@kuuly3334 Is it a good university? I study Architecture and my teachers teach me better than any content I find on youtube. But sometimes they tell us to research examples ourselves, instead of teaching. That annoys me.
@@swoodc business major spotted

Really blows my mind that you give all this for FREE! This would be priced $$$ too much in a school or an institute. But this guy ....FREE EDUCATION!
Also... no ads, no distraction, no unnecessary talks, calmly explaining everything in an easy to understand manner.
I am here since your first video...and really thankful for providing all this.
EDIT: Finished the whole tutorial! **pats self on back**

Well yes it’s free but he’s not doing it for free… he gets paid
@@dylanbruhhh4208 Well yeah, but does it matter?
@@dylanbruhhh4208 im not paying for it no thats fine
@@dylanbruhhh4208 Are you paying for it? Then your consuming it for free, are you not?
@@dylanbruhhh4208 Well yeah, but the product ultimately comes to us for free, so don't really care if the guy is getting paid or not, the fact that he gives us this tutorial for no cost is very nice.
Wow. My experience with UED goes all the way back to the beginning, literally, and I have recently returned to relearn UED with 5. My hat goes off to you, man. This is by far one of the best tutorials I have ever encountered. EXTREMELY thought out, very coherent, very understandable. Pacing is fantastic. Very well done, sincerely. This one is definitely going in the bookmarks
I'm a constant consumer of 3D vids/tutorials and have struggled with UE for a bit and I just want to say no one has ever made me "get it" like you! So kudos to your teaching skills and thanks so much for making this free!
This is some of the most polished and comprehensive education for a software I've ever watched. The way he does stuff incorrectly and then tells you how to get out of it - subtle but it's a massive reason why this video works so well. Great job.
Its the constant reminder of the shortcuts for me, drilling it into my brain. Solid teacher!
OMG how true is this??!!

To everyone at 1:58:00 having the issue where u add a directional light but everything is still dark, you need to Drag it into the world instead of clicking on it, and then switch from landscape mode to select mode at the top left to be able to click on it.
thank you
Thanks man
Thanks

absolute goat bro
This is by far one of the best tutorials I've ever used. Clear, good pace, and engaging. No steps are skipped or skimmed over. Thank you for this in depth, professional learning material. Please make more!
Absolutely agree. And also happy that trees now work with nanites :)
honestly just a fantastic tutorial in general that I feel great comfort in knowing that I can always return to and click on the chapters for guidance in the future. Honestly, you are a real one for this video, and I deeply appreciate it.
I'm 27 and I've been tiptoeing around my dream of making a game for years because of how much work in so many areas it will require to make it to my standards, but with UE5 and all the free resources for asset creation, music creation, and this video right here, right now I have never felt more empowered to make my dream a reality. Thanks Sensei!
same here!
yea? what game did u make then AHAHHAHAHA i bet u have not even started yet :D
@@don2234 stop whining and get a life, ur not funny
How did your attempt at getting into unreal engine go? Even if you just made some models that's likely more than DON will ever do.
dude same
I have been teaching myself unreal over the last year. while this video might have some stuff ive already learned, i cant emphasize enough what a complete compendium of basic knowledge this truly is. I ended up watching all the way through just because of how thorough and well expressed all of the topics are in here. Honestly the Lighting and Nanite sections really helped me to see and understand these subjects way better than i did before. THANK YOU THANK YOU for the time you took to make this. You truly are the unreal sensei! I have this bookmarked and i know i will end up going back to this many times, as well as ive already been sharing it to others!
Thank you so, so much! I completed the 5 hours of this course with a big smile on my face. Every single thing I learned felt more and more fascinating. I truly appreciate it, thank you!
Small hint for others encountering the same issue as me. At the Lumen chapter if you see no changes even after enabling infinite extent and lumen in the PostProcessVolume, it is because of the Engine Scalability Settings, mainly the global illumination option being set to medium or lower. You need this set to high in order to actually see lumen activated.
Please help me, I am also facing the same situation as you.
thanks bro
tks bro i was stuck at this part, you are life saver
@@anhtuan-zn6gq you go to setting tab (with below the X button on the top right corner) chose Engine Scalability Setting tab and set it to at least high quality
This is a great tutorial! I started watching your first one, then noticed this one. Honestly my man, the effort you're putting into this goes well above and beyond. You explain everything perfectly; to the point, and concise. Its not just the best UE5 tutorial I've seen, its the best tutorial. Great work, and thanks! I used to be a mechanic, but I lost my arm in a motorcycle accident. Since I can't do my job anymore, I figured I'd try making a video game. I picked up UE5 last week, and went through a few tutorials, and got nowhere.. except how to light a scene. I'm 3hrs into your vid, and I've created an open world, textured the landscape, built custom buildings, textured those, and brought in a playable character... until I found this video, I thought I'd never figure this out. Thanks so much. 👍
hell yeah dude what an awesome thing to do
I am in the same situation. was left with a paralyzed arm after an motorbike accident...
That's awesome! I hope you didn't give up learning this. Can be hard but I'm sure you can do it!
Lol i bet there are a lot losers here thinking... ooh boy I watch this video and then boom i can also develop games and get rich and bla bla.... nah bro nah... you will stay poor and you can't do anything about it.
You can't compete vs people who have done this all their lives... you just can't ... especially if you are low IQ or average and if you are already 20 or 30 ... just face reality you are poor a loser and you will stay like that for the rest of your life... time to wake up... real life is not like your MAGICAL THINKING in your head.
FOR THOSE WHO CANNOT CONTROL THE CHARACTER:
You don't need to push the controller button. You simply have to change play settings from "Simulate" to "Selected Viewport" in three dots on the right side of play panel.
Thanks, needed this!
Thank you!!
I've been trying to figure this out for hours. I was about to give up and quit, thank you!!
Thanks!
I'm crying rn, thank you thank you!
Just finished my Castle World and moving on to the UE5 Game tutorial. Thanks Sensei you're a true hero.
For someone just getting into learning Unreal and not sure where to start you made this super east and comprehensive to follow, thank you!
Fantastic series that helped me get into UE5 very quickly. I work in computational design and BIM in the architecture industry, but have become curious about gamification and immersive walkthrough recently, so this series had so much for me to learn the fundamentals.
I particularly appreciate that you covered level and actor blueprints and introduced widgets. I really appreciate that you offered this resource in public domain, and will look into your course package once I get my hands on a better laptop - those trees were pushing my MSI rig to its limits I think.
Keep up the great work, Sensei!
Love how patient you are with your audience. There's a lot of teachers on RUclips who don't seem to care about the student actually learning what they're trying to teach by going way too fast. This is a long video yes, but it explains everything in good detail, which is great for someone like me with learning disabilities. Thanks for going slow man.
For people with blurry/flickering trees: Use the PivotPainter trees and NOT the SimpleWind ones. Just change them in Paint mode
It took me way too long and a lot of trial and error to figure this one out! Hopefully more people see this!
you can also into the material settings for one of the trees and turn on advanced wind.
bro, youre teaching skills are incredible, youre so detailed and well spoken, and you cover every single point, like a few times during the course i was following along, then something in my settings or what not didnt match yours so i paused to try and figure it out with no luck, then i press play and see you literally cover it in a "what if" like 5 seconds later. thank you for this, it was really useful, will definately check out your masterclass
This video alone has helped me more than all the learning videos provided by Epic put together. I had started to learn UE5 from a couple sources including Epic's own learning page, after only a short time of watching this, I decided to go back and learn the fundamentals the way you laid them out. It has helped me grasp Unreal so much better and in record time, weeks worth of tutorial videos covered in a single 5 hour video and in a way that actually stuck with me. Starting the castle level section as of writing this, but if all your classes are of this quality, can almost guarantee I'll be investing in that Masterclass. Such a legend, cannot thank you enough!
I can’t put to words how helpful this course is. Thank you so much and we highly appreciate your work and patience. I didn’t even finish it and I already am having a lot of fun and learning many new things. Thank you senei!! ⭐️
My boy is watching these videos everyday. His 10 and downloaded UE after spending 2 years on scratch. Thanks
I can't thank you enough for taking the time to make your tutorials. Super easy to follow. Amazing content!!
I just found this channel, and 1:24 in, I was inspired to get to the comments to commend you! I really appreciate your professionalism. I've never encountered such an ambitious, generous, and clearly well though-out tutorial in all the many years I've been on browsing RUclips. I'm praying for your success in whatever you are pursuing!
I have rarely loved a RUclipsr as much as this guy. The quality of the content, the insane amount of detail and work put into it. I just have no words. Unfortunately, as I’m a 17 year old without a job or money to support you through your paid course, I guess I can’t just try to explain how grateful I am. The fact that this is all free is mind blowing and for us beginners pretty much of vital interest. Thanks for everything man. It really means the world to me and a lot of other people❤
I wish be smart like you in your age man.
But I'm still young 😂😅
Good luck
@@marcinkepski4977 thanks haha! Hopefully you’ll achieve what you’re looking for, good luck! ;)
I swear he got a red mouse just to describe lumen lol
@@brianasewell_ maybe who knows haha
No words man! What an amazing in-depth tutorial. Can't thank enough to this guy for what he made for us.
I can't believe how intuitive and smooth everything feels in this. I have ZERO experience and I'm pretty dumb a lot of the time, but this just *feels good*. Like things just make sense. It's clear the developers put a TON of love and care into this engine. It feels great as a PC gamer and things translate so well. I'm stopping this video every minute or so to catch up because of the aforementioned dumb I suffer from, but wow I am impressed with what I've seen so far. And MASSIVE props go to this channel as well, you're a god damned champion for creating these huge informative tutorials for free for us. If possible you should add a blurb about enabling the "Minimal_default" as it's not actually the default, and also anyone running this that gets a black screen when they start the editor should try disabling MFAA in nVidea Control Panel for the application as that one change alone fixed the issue for me, nothing else necessary.
This is an incredible intro tutorial I appreciate all the hard work that went into making it. I decided to pick up unreal engine as a hobby and design games in my spare time since I've always wanted to but never felt like I had the skills or tools to start and this tutorial is really building my confidence that I can actually do some things even though I'm only 2 hours in
As a student of low-level graphics programming, I must salute you! Not only do you explain how to use unreal, but you are also on point with explanations on global illumination and texture compression. I found this video highly educational!
There is a lot of praise in this comment section, and I think its well warrented. Ive been getting into unreal with my office recently as we try to expand into some new fields and Ive been through a few different tutorials on youtube at this point. This one is - by far - the best one I've come across so far. I will be recommending your masters course to my office as we build our skillsets. Thank you Sensei!
I've been doing quite a few Unreal tutorials lately, and this one is the best in my opinion! Great flow and green teacher! Thank you so much Sensei!
Incredible timing. I had just started watching the first 10 minutes of your earlier version of this and kept noticing that the UE5 default view has changed a lot since you made it a year ago. In that video, you mentioned that you will post links in the description when you make a newer version of it. Don't forget to update that description :) I just happened to click on your YT channel and found that you released this new video just 1 day ago!
I am grateful for this tutorial, and I'm incredibly excited to finally start making a few little learning projects in UE5 as I slowly build my experience towards being able to create a small, simple, and fun game.
Thank you very very much for this detailed tutorial. I'm confident this comment will represent tens and even hundreds of thousands others who gain a lot of knowledge from your generous efforts in creating this tutorial. Easy, convenient, and free knowledge for a cutting edge video game creation tool. I couldn't ask for more... Until I get stuck in super advanced stuff one day - hopefully, if I don't give up!
Happy video game creation everyone!
I've waited in anticipation for this. Loved your first UE5 tut, and stoked to see this go live!!
If anyone is using unreal 5.1+ the default map is not the chair one anymore, to get the chair one you have to open 'Minimal_Default' In the maps folder of the startcontent.
Thank you!
Moved out from Unity, to Unreal engine, you made it a smooth sailing! thanks!
There arent words to describe how thankful i am for your effort to share this information. I cant wait to see all the passion projects that will start from your instruction.
20 mins in and much better than some of the other tutorials I came across. Thanks for this!
Guys, i am in the middle of rhe tutorial and this is the first time that i am using youtube for learning a software. I know zbrush, substance, blender very well and bought a lot of courses. And i can tell you that this is the best course i have ever seen so far. Not just for unreal engine i am talking. The way you explain everything in order and giving only necessary informatinos are amazing.
OMG! This is fantastic! I am a software engineer and need to learn UE for a project. I've started so many tutorials and had such a difficult time learning it because the tutorials suck. But this one... This is epic! I am only an hour into it but have learned so much. Thanks for putting this out! It's the best I've seen so far!
I just finished your previous UE5 tutorial and loved every second of it. The timing on this one cannot be more perfect
I've only been trying UE5 for 3 days in my freetime and using this video as a guide and I already feel comfortable with the nodes for material building. I never imagined that I could be a game dev before and yet now I am inspired
I just finished the materials section so far and I've learned a lot! Let me just say how much I'm enjoying this. Very informative and fun. Thank you!
This is an absolute GEM, man I can't appreciate you enough for this fantastic mini-course🙏😇
💯🎉 This is by far the most immediately useful series of introductory tutorials on Unreal I have looked at, including paid: engaging, logically progressive, avoids too much detail and too many generalities, downloadable props for illustration and interaction. Zach's passion for the subject is infectious, and his clear teaching style makes UE5 accessible to a much wider audience. Thank you UnrealSensei❕
I have to say, this is probably the best tutorial I've ever followed. The way you concisely explain relatively complex issues whilst communicating likely issues as you progress is outstanding. Thank you so much for this.
Lum
Excellent tutorial. Thank you so much for making such an in-depth, yet easy to follow, tutorial! Unreal does not seem so daunting anymore!
This is the first 5 hours video I have watched in my life. Man you're a huge inspiration. Thank you for that video, I'll be starting UE5 soon thanks to you!
This has been so helpful! I recently started getting into unreal and most tutorials get complicated so fast for a true beginner. I really needed this to match my level and get all the basics in and now understand all of it so much better! Thanks a bunch!
If your a beginner, or advanced Unreal Engine user, watching this 5 hour tutorial will be so helpful! I've been studying game art & 3D Animation for over 3 years now and I'm still learning new things watching this! Definitely worth the watch!
Insane tutorial! I just finished the whole thing, I love how in depth it is. I'll be back to reference it many times I'm sure.
I am completely new to this and watched a few other tutorials. I almost gave up. Then I found this channel and wow its so much easier, thank you for the wonderful knowledge!
You are the man. You not only shown us the steps needed, but why we are taking those steps. I feel so much more confident in unreal engine and that was thanks to you.
This tutorial was great! I followed all of it and I also streamed on Twitch while I was doing it. It took me around 10 hours to finish, since I was stopping the video, try stuffs on my own, play the env also not finished, showing to my wife, friends and viewers. Huge kudos. You gave me a lot more motivation to actually build my very own game.
I am learning unreal engine following this tutorial and the quality of this content is... unreal! It is incredible and heartwarming that you put that much effort in a video that long and you give it away for free. Thank you for doing this!!!
With the news about Unity yesterday - Now it's time to do the switch.
I have been using Unity for the past 8 years, but have wanted to try learning Unreal for a while. These videos are so comprehensive and well done, thank you!
This is BY FAR the best tutorial out there when it comes to explanation, detail, depth of information and usefulness! Such a clear way of explaining too. Thanks a lot!
1 year on and this is still such a massive help. In between parenting, self teaching programming languages and working full time, watched the entirety of this video over the span of 3 days haha. Getting stuck in with creating a princess oriented castle for my daughter ^.^ Thank you Sensei! New sub and watching out for more of these!
It is the best tutorial video that I have ever seen about any subject. Any waste of time, any unnecessary commentaries.... Just the infos and explanations necessary.
Great job. Thank you very much
I wish I could go back 20 years and take learning the first unreal editor seriously. It's so fun to make something of your own.
I guess it wasn't free. It's like they made UE free a few years ago
theres a chinese proverb that goes " the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, the second best time is today "
@@predater5017 wow, great
Lol i bet there are a lot losers here thinking... ooh boy I watch this video and then boom i can also develop games and get rich and bla bla.... nah bro nah... you will stay poor and you can't do anything about it.
You can't compete vs people who have done this all their lives... you just can't ... especially if you are low IQ or average and if you are already 20 or 30 ... just face reality you are poor a loser and you will stay like that for the rest of your life... time to wake up... real life is not like your MAGICAL THINKING in your head.

implying ppl do games bcs they want to get rich, kek
This guy needs more praise and credit for doing this for free and being so thorough and helpful!
Thanks for putting this together. Slowly working through it to get a baseline on how UE5 works and it has been super helpful
These are the contents that are being sold for hundreds of bucks but this legend put it for free so everyone can learn it easily. Thank you so much for this fabulous tutorial
Even tho I don‘t need a second beginner tutorial, thank you so much for your effort. You were the guy who brought me into Unreal with your amazing Tutorials. I did not buy the masterclass because I wanted to learn by myself which really fits my way of studying a topic. I hope other people will find this helpful and guys!!! Listen to his words! He is a great explainer and the 5 hours are totally worth it.
You are a wonderful teacher, thank you!! I appreciate the pace, how you say your on-screen actions as you do them and repeat them to really seed it. Well done, I am sure I'll watch this more than once, and really appreciate the resources, enabling me and many others to walk towards their creative dreams!
I am amazed at the clarity and steady pace of this video. I have just started my Unreal Engine Journey and this tutorial has so far kept me engaged throughout the tutorial. Thank you for the hard work you put into this.
Many thanks for a very thorough tutorial! Very easy, relaxed attitude and demeanor. Enjoy your teaching method. Such a joy! Keep ‘em coming!
Amazing - the most concise and easy to understand tutorial I've ever seen on any topic. You should be proud of yourself for this
I love this, I'm a teacher myself and I love all the quality 'free' content that's out there. You can learn anything from the internet.
Firstly, allow me to say thank you for this abundance of knowledge that you have bestowed upon us. I came in knowing absolutely zero about how to use this tool and here I am on my 3rd time watching because i want to make sure I soak all this info up... I on behalf of all future unreal game devs salute you, Sensai. Cheers!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! This has been my introduction to game dev and you made it so accessible and digestible. I am really grateful for your time and hard work, as are so many others..Thank you Unreal Sensei! You're the best!
I am 10 years experienced Unity Game Developer. I have worked on tens of different projects. Published my own Mobile games, Steam games, VR game and even multiplayer co-op game. But I have to admit that if you are not very very skilled on Unity, it is difficult to make the game reach the same quality with Unreal. Before getting old, it is wise to learn Unreal. I passed first one hour very fast because most of the things are same. Let's find my old C++ programming books from University years :D
Only wanted to watch for a few mins but got sucked in to how thorough this tutorial is and found myself watching over half an hour. Will be coming back to this. Thank you!
I've now dedicated over an hour to this tutorial, and I'm genuinely impressed by how clear, smooth, and easy-to-follow the explanations have been. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that this tutorial is among the best I've encountered. As I progress, I'm curious if there might be additional video tutorials available on their channels specifically covering UE5. I'm hopeful that there are more resources like this one that I can delve into once I've completed this tutorial.
"delve" 🤓🤓🤓⬅ thats you
I’m 14 years old, very excited to implement this into my future career of architecture and also create vast open worlds as a hobby!
What a fantastic tutorial. Best place to start for learning UE, full stop. What I'd pay $500 for a two-week course has been condensed into a few days work for absolutely free. I especially appreciate the repetition of shortcuts over the duration of the video. I've started habitually pressing Ctrl+Space in other programs.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate this guy for providing this type of content for free ? great help, Thank you sir! 🙏🙏🙏
im 39, just bought a gaming PC 6 months ago but found myself not playing as much games as i should. A coworker told me about Unreal and this channel. This is great! Im learning a lot. Thank you for creating this content for us! Nice little side hobby for me hah
Just an update to the whole nanites not working on foliage situation, 1 year later, they work now! Thanks unreal sensei!
i am currently 1 hour in to this video, with a whole load of pausing and rewinding, but i have to say im very impressed in how you set this out. ive watched so many videos lately and they didnt always explain things very well for actual beginners which made me frustrated and confused. this video is very well explained and easy to follow, even for a total newbie like me. thank you so much for all the time and effort you put in. heres to the next 4 hours. EDIT: followed along with lots of pausing and rewinding but this was so well done, thank you so much, i now have my very first world created. now to start from scratch and make my own unique world.
In 5.1, new blank game projects don't seem to start you in the Minimal_Default map anymore, though it's still there under StarterContent\Maps.
(Looks a bit different though)
Thank you!
Thank you! Yay!
where do i find "startercontent\maps" im trying to follow the tutorial but it brings me to a big uneven map lol im so stupid i cant even get past the first instruction
@@the.author.0813 Ctrl+Space You can find it in the explorer thingy. He shows it in the tutorial I think.
I gave up after ten minutes... or well, my computer did. I need a new GPU.
@@fredrik8685 What GPU do you have?
This video bout to blow up more cause of the free marketing Unity have unreal
The amount of information in this tutorial is just stunning, and the delivery is so well thought out that this might be the best tutorial ever about anything. Unreal editor being very good (coming from Unity the workflow in UE is a breeeeeze!) of course helps.
i've made your other 5 hours tutorial, everythings is clear, well explain. A big thank you for the work you're doing Sifu ! Can't wait to make this one !
I bought the Masterclass by you. Tutorials are super east to understand and the members discord is always a blast to go through. I have a problem with procrastination, I spent almost 3 hours wandering the Australian outback world before I moved on. Ue5 is amazing xD
Just an absolutely fantastic tutorial. I had no idea how to do anything in Unreal and this really helped me a lot. My main goal is to do audio/metasounds, so I really first needed to understand the engine and this was exactly what I needed. Thanks!!
