PLEASE i beg you make more videos like this, i really wanna get into UE and i already have experience in Unity, i would LOVE if someone pointed the similarities out and teach me UE using Unity as an example (you earned a subscriber very easily)

[@emilwalseth]

That's great! Do you have any wishes for topics?

[@MrFrogBog]

Probably one of the best explanations of Actors v Prefabs I've heard. Brilliant video, keep up the great work!

[@emilwalseth]

I appreciate that! Thank you:D

[@vishuu528]

Thanks! I was really confused between prefabs and blueprints, this does explain it well

[@emilwalseth]

Im glad to hear!

[@AFlyingBacon]

Best explanation i've seen on youtube, thank you. Would love to see more videos like this, im currently switching over to unreal from unity.

[@emilwalseth]

Cool! Good to know:) will try to find some new concepts. Anything you would like to see specific?

[@AFlyingBacon]

One thing i would like to learn more about personally is the relationship between blueprints and c++. I see lots of tutorials saying "everyone should use a mix of both c++ and blueprints" then they never quite explain when to use c++. @@emilwalseth

As a person with soon equal amount of practice in both engine, this video was very useful to just get a refresher on the core of how the engine works, neat!

[@emilwalseth]

Scale BP on one axis. :D Is not the same as Unity. Scaling in the EU is a mistake. They have large systems like Nanite, but they cannot implement scaling on a global axis.
