@GregoryRich19 I am so excited about the Sequencer Details Panel. I’ve been wanting that for years!

Here's a cool OBS trick.

Go into Settings > Advanced > File Formatting
Change from "%CCYY-%MM-%DD %hh-%mm-%ss" -> "%CCYY-%MM-%DD\%CCYY-%MM-%DD %hh-%mm-%ss"

Your OBS recordings/replay buffers now automatically create a new folder for each new day you record.

One of the reasons I became an animator was The Incredibles DVD commentary. Here's one of my favorite bits of Brad Bird discussing this atypical scene for an animated film. I also love how he credits animators by name. May post more of my fav clips later.

Remember we promised you a game animation sample at GDC 2024? It’s here!

Get up and running with Motion Matching in this project that includes hundreds of free AAA-quality animations 🏃‍♂️

@tvaziri Definitely one of my all time favorites. I used to turn the sound all the way up on our system just to hear every note in this scene.

@delaneykingrox @iNOTnik In a pinch, if you can do things without the full power of a Pawn or Character, you can call GetOwningActor or GetOwningComponent to get the Actor or SkeletalMeshComponent respectively.

[Nathaniel Winckler @natewinck]

@delaneykingrox @iNOTnik Thankfully, not a bug! The reason it doesn’t work in the preview window is the class of object in the preview window is a PreviewActor but not a Pawn. A Pawn is a special class that can be possessed during gameplay.

While most programs bind "undo" to ctrl-z, It seems in Unreal, they decided instead to map it to "Crash to Desktop"

#SpiderVerse continues to be one of my all time favorite movies and #AcrossTheSpiderVerse knocks it out of the park. Go see it!
