Alien 👽 Max | gamedev 🇺🇦

Sunday, morning, coffee, Unreal Engine. One part of this material is to make the texture more contrasty. I once accidentally made the contrast through an inversion node InvLerp. CheapContrast also suitable #UnrealEngine #UE5 #gamedev

My nightly Unreal Engine Material, between Saturday and Sunday. Maybe I'll even show some of the main parts of the code. Shouldn't I? I'm going to sleep and I hope for WOW reposts #gamedev #UnrealEngine #UE5 #indiedev

I first made a Niagara, there were a lot of particles, and then I remembered that I know the Kung Fu of creating Unreal Engine materials, so I redid this effect, there is no Niagara here, just a simple Plane

Stranger Things to you this Saturday from the Unreal Engine sorcerer. I'm Max and I've been listening to Kate Bush every day >20 years. I'm hiding a lot from you because I'm an introvert who doesn't yet see the reaction that will be a wave of *

I don't know what to call it, I just played some Unreal Engine material for you over dinner. I'm one of those game devs who works all the time except when they're sleeping and pooping #UnrealEngine #UE5 #gamedev

To unload a transit level, it is not enough to know its name, need to save its instance in a variable. It seems to be working. Now to make it even more perfect, I'll have to make all the scenes at (0, 0, 0) and then stitch them together correctly #gamedev #UE5 #indiedev #UnrealEngine

Friday, I started writing the code for loading scenes. Maybe this is not a completely standard solution, but I have an architecture: between locations there can be an intermediate scene that is the same. These are just test scenes, just to show an Blueprint example #UnrealEngine #gamedev #UE5

Not long ago, my 12-year-old son and I started learning Python. He wrote a code that prints a Pac-Man image to the console in symbols. I tell him: can you create that in Unreal Engine material? He surprised me again. My little genius #PacMan #UnrealEngine #UE5 #gamedev

Thursday, I'm trying to create an energy effect for wirelessly charging a robot. What you see here is a completely different vfx, it's where it all started. At first I thought it would be Unreal Engine Niagara, but then I remembered that I'm a genius #gamedev #UnrealEngine #UE5

2 weeks ago I did this post-processing, I liked it, now I look at it, and see flaws. It's always like that when I create something, the first few days WOW, and then OK, and then - I don't like something, some more time passes and you start to think that it's complete bullshit #gamedev

If I do something that doesn't require a video card, such as metasound, then a few hours

Curved UV for widget, or curved screen, or whatever it's called. I'll show it from another side a little bit. This is a classic Unreal Engine material example of a sci-fi user interface #gamedev #UnrealEngine #UE5

When I don't have electricity, I have enough energy to experiment on my laptop, where I only have Unreal Engine for MetaSound right now. So, I made a Beep Patch

A repository of my life as a game developer This place is my archive, my repository of what I do every day as game developer, all of which you could see on my other social media. I have a lot of short videos without words that can be useful no...

Everything you see here is in more detail in another secret place 🤫 #gamedev #indiedev

Wednesday, morning, coffee, Unreal Engine material, BumpOffset node, again! #UnrealEngine #UE5 #gamedev

I love game dev because it is here, in this place, that programming ideas can be seen, for example, the shape is a 3D object, to take position the particle looks for collisions in the center #UnrealEngine #gamedev

YouTube video by A repository of my life as a game developer Gameplay example / Scanners

Before I understood what the final appearance of the scanner should be, I created a dozen variants.

This is the first part of the checkpoint gameplay. Scanning the robot's body to detect some things and then adjusting and fixing it #scifi #gaming #indiegame #gamedev

Almost 20 years have passed since the first episode of the series Heroes. I can't believe this. Sometimes I feel like someone has stolen my time. Masi Oka (Hiro Nakamura), Zachary Quinto (Sylar), Milo Ventimiglia (Peter Petrelli)... I look at them and try to remember the past

In a week I made a prototype of a scene that will be in the game as a checkpoint, meaning the player will see it often. There will be a lot actions here. This is a multitool system for robots. Can I already be called a level designer and an entry-level 3D artist?

BumpOffset node, one of the variants for making a volume from 2D in Unreal Engine material. A small movement, a changed texture for the bump offset height, all this as UV for a other texture, magic #UnrealEngine #UE5 #gamedev

Sunday. Decided to diversify your game dev feed a bit with Unreal Engine, show how to create a sound wave, but also in UE5 😜 What's in the MetaSounf Patch? Everything is simple there, details on my YouTube channel. I'm not a sound designer #gamedev #sound #indiedev

I've been there before, it's cool, there's no one there, it's quiet, it's a perfect place to work.

Hello programs! Saturday. When stairs, or better yet, dynamic steps, can be a catapult. It's funny. This is my game dev bubble that keeps me from going crazy. I wish you inspiration

YouTube video by A repository of my life as a game developer Unreal Engine Modeling Mode / Sci-Fi frame or module for a mine or tunnel

For the 100th video on my YouTube channel, I decided to dedicate it to 3D modeling inside Unreal Engine 5. This is the first video of this length, 5 minutes. I like everything very fast and to the point, the CORE! #gamedev #indiedev #UnrealEngine #UE5 #d3d

I improved the "interacting" gameplay a bit. I decided that it was better not to see the object information as a constant, but to have the ability to show or hide it. Logically?!

My 12 year old son saw me making Unreal Engine material for the scanner and suggested his ideas. One is really cool, simple and I already want to use it in other places. I called it - POWERSINE #UnrealEngine #UE5 #gamedev #indiedev
