It's not often that I get to just use #UE5Coro as a normal user, without thinking about new features or handling even more corner cases. It's really nice, I feel like "regular" C++ is a lesser language. Last time this happened to me was with #Qt and C++03.

I know that I'm tooting my own horn here, but it's not like I'm doing it for sales; it's free software. I hope it makes your life with #UE5 (or #UE4!) easier if you're into #coroutines (or #i18n 🙃), even if only for editor tooling.

Can anyone help my son?
"I have recently switched to #Linux Mint, and successfully built Unreal Engine 4 from source on linux. However, A) it can't rebuild the plugins, even after I downloaded an Epic Asset Manager from the software manager and redownloaded the plugins, and B) It says that it couldn't rebuild the project c++ files and to rebuild them from source. I previously used Visual Studio, which isn't for linux. How do I rebuild the project for linux ue4?" #UE4 #Unreal
Big update to my Unreal VersionMacros:
- Prebuild scripts now support fake-macro substitutions for the built-in EngineVersionComparison.h macros
- Macros from EngineVersionComparison.h now have backports for older UE versions (e.g. pre-4.19 and pre-5.6)

Is there a good article explaining why the screen size / desired on screen dropdown in top-right corner of the UMG designer doesn’t actually show the UI at actual display size?

Say I selected a 1440x900 screen size and my project UI DPI scaling is “scale to fit”, the white box around my full screen UI isn’t actually at 1440x90 but are still at 1920x1080, but the bottom-right corner says “DPI scaling 0.75”, what am I supposed to do with that information?

Some overdue updates for VersionMacros! Improved POSIX shell support and text codec handling.

Updates to Version Macros:
- Version macro naming conventions (as recognized by prebuild scripts) can now be customized in prebuild config!
- TObjectPtr UPROPERTY declarations are now automatically forward/backward converted without any special annotations

Sharing again for other plugin developers who want a robust system for version-gating UE C++ code. Nicer than the built-in macros, works around limitations in UHT, and even comes with a TObjectPtr converter for bridging the UE4 gap!

Локализация. Поиск строк по всем StringTable'ам в Unreal Engine

В процессе работы над локализацией в Unreal Engine я столкнулся с дублирующимися строками, хаосом в StringTable и отсутствием удобного способа поиска текста по ассетам. В этой статье делюсь решением, которое помогло навести порядок, ускорить работу и снизить количество ошибок — с примерами и собственным плагином.

Локализация. Поиск строк по всем StringTable'ам в Unreal Engine

Итак, начнём с того, как в Unreal Engine в целом устроена локализация В движке предусмотрен специальный инструмент — Localization Dashboard , который предоставляет достаточно широкий набор...
