California state assembly passes the 'Protect Our Games Act', pending approval from state senate and governor:

Under the act, video game companies would be required to provide 60 days notice before taking a digitally sold game offline and must provide a patch or alternative version for continued access — and must offer refunds if doing so is not possible.

Steam page for my first commercial game is up :D

@HighEnergyA Would recommend using the volumetric height fog and a volume material on a big box attached to the ship. Some world noise and color variations would be nice too

[Jean-Baptiste Louis @JBL_GameDev]

Hey! Made a volumetric cloud in UE5 (Niagara + Custom shader) a good alternative for volumetrics from unreal

@benjacllbt Thanks!! 🙏

[Jean-Baptiste Louis @JBL_GameDev]

@VictorMartins_D I think what you talk about is the common volumetric fog from unreal, I'm not using it in my exemple but as far as I remember you should have a draw distance setting in your height fog actor

[Jean-Baptiste Louis @JBL_GameDev]

@HighEnergyA Nope, honestly I do not recommend this method for a classic usecase as it's not very optimized. Perfect from mid distance - far away but horrible if you need to make the camera go through

[Jean-Baptiste Louis @JBL_GameDev]

@Partikill_VFX Pretty bad, that's why you want to keep the number of particles as low as possible. Clearly not the most performance friendly solution for a global usage

[Jean-Baptiste Louis @JBL_GameDev]

Setup ->
- sprites with fixed draw order (~16 particles)
- translucent material with 3D noises
- blackbody for color accuracy

[Jean-Baptiste Louis @JBL_GameDev]

Hey! I made a semi realistic fire VFX in UE5 🔥🔥🔥 (Niagara + Procedural material)

I've transfer the water shader by @JBL_GameDev he shared (Thank you so much) inside Unity and then combining it with my own masking shaders.
It's amazing!
VFX/Shader/Texture commisions are opens here : https://t.co/sLjKELMBm8 #gamedev #unity3d #vfx #indiedev #indiegamedev #Unity

[Jean-Baptiste Louis @JBL_GameDev]

@peplmGameDev Great work! Thank you for the credit 🙏

[Jean-Baptiste Louis @JBL_GameDev]

@UEFN_NOOB Yup, very strange UK decided to ban this one.. maybe using a VPN could help?

[Jean-Baptiste Louis @JBL_GameDev]

Hey! I made a stylized water vortex based on my previous water shader (https://t.co/lSSQTM4VSH)

Hey! I made this stylized water shader in UE5.
No map, no texture, 100% code and its available for free (link below) #indiedev #UE5 #shader

[Jean-Baptiste Louis @JBL_GameDev]

@RottenCandyGam1 Thank you! ❤️

🌊🌪️Created by Senior II VFX Artist, Gregory Oliveira da Silva, this is a stylized water tornado material made in Unreal 5! It uses scrolling textures and cleverly applies Fresnel gradients to simulate anime-style lighting.
