It's time for a new article! 🚀

Ever wanted to learn more about Iris replication?

Today we're diving deep into #UE5 Iris to learn how to implement custom Network Serializers :)

RTs and follows are always appreciated! 🔃 #gamedev #UE5 #Multiplayer #Iris #Networking

[Alvaro Jover-Alvarez 🦆 @vorixo]

I wrote a short introduction about #UE5 Iris' replication filters! #gamedev

RT and follows help tremendously! :)

If you missed this week's newsletter on achieving 1000+ FPS in Unreal engine don't worry.

I have also published a blog post version.

@skx_doom Wondered when someone was going to make good use of the plugin hooks for GI, very nice.

[daftsoftware @daftsoftware]

@Hevedy Haven’t actually been keeping much of an eye on it since around 5.1 because that was last time I bothered doing any dev in VR but it seems still quite well maintained all things considered

Wrote a quick guide on very aggressive optimizations to Unreal Engine, yielding much better out of the box performance.

Daft Starter Project now also features a fastrendering branch to easily test out these tweaks

@QuodSoler It will work with lightmaps but specifically the option and permutations for static lightings are disabled in the default engine config so you will need to enable it

[daftsoftware @daftsoftware]

Nice example here of how powerful ES31 is - a friend managed to achieve pretty decent graphical fidelity on the fastrendering branch, while still maintaining 800fps! Would be awesome to see Epic make an official lightweight template which produces these results out of the box.

@theredpix Use the profiler, if you are not measuring you are not optimizing.

First post is up on the blog - a post on how to make your own blog using Cloudflare pages and Hugo, and generally describes the process it took to setup my own blog. It took much trial and error before I was happy, so you can trust it's well dogfooded.

[daftsoftware @daftsoftware]

Hello friends, I've setup a blog over at https://t.co/H0JnAPawli where I will be posting various Unreal Engine tips, tricks, guides and more. Hope it helps you!

My friend @daftsoftware released a lightweighted Starter Project that strips out a large amount of #UE5 functionality, resulting in a significant reduction in package size and an increase in editor speed.

Go support her with a star!

@MiltonCandelero @vorixo Hey! I've updated the Readme with a bit of information about this, hope it helps.

[daftsoftware @daftsoftware]

@_benui @vorixo Hey Ben, it uses a rather niche uproject setting which aggressively disables all engine and editor plugins, then all plugins become opt-in.

[daftsoftware @daftsoftware]

@chongdashu @vorixo Hey I've added this to the readme, thanks for the suggestion.

[daftsoftware @daftsoftware]

@JoanVillora @vorixo The Mover project is perhaps a bit outdated now to be honest as Mover had quite a few heavy API changes since then such as stances, and I no longer use Mover so haven't upgraded the version. Perhaps still worth it if you can upgrade it yourself though!

[daftsoftware @daftsoftware]

@TimSweeneyEpic @bgolus Sweeney plz fix

[daftsoftware @daftsoftware]

@QuodSoler Personal preference, But atleast in the context of Unreal I find a mix of DOD and OOP malleable and especially great for rapid prototypes, abstracting perf critical code to DOD subsystems. With ECS I more often than not find myself trying to fit square pegs in circle holes.
