It's been a really l long time coming, but I finally have a proper hub for my game. Finished it today on stream!

I'll continue to build it over time, especially once I add NPCs, but for now it's done. :)

New #UnrealEngine #PCG tutorial coming to you all tomorrow at 9am pacific!

Super excited about this one! I mask the environment by the shadows cast, but it's so much more powerful than even that!

Spawn Different Actors On EACH Surface Material
YouTube video by Procedural Minds Spawn Different Actors On EACH Surface Material

I released a video yesterday on filtering #UnrealEngine #PCG by the surface material (youtu.be/iUh73j_flZk).

I'm already trying to figure out how to filter by the actual RGB color value of the sampled texture so I could filter even further. ๐Ÿค”

That's in a blueprint, it's not a PCG node. There's no "Edit in C++" button for PCG. And even on that node, that doesn't tell me how it's supposed to be used.

I have officially become an Unreal Authorized Instructor!

What does this mean for the channel? Absolutely nothing! ๐Ÿคฃ

But if I learn anything new from it, you bet your butts I'll make a video or tutorial going over it!

So stay tuned, and thank you all for the support so far!

They're just teddy bears, but I feel uncomfortable.... ๐Ÿ˜…

Do you want to learn to how to easily make your objects face towards a single point, or face towards each other using #PCG in #UnrealEngine5 ?

Anyone want to take a ride on the wooden roller coaster made in #UnrealEngine5 using #PCG? It might be a slightly bumpy ride. ๐Ÿคฃ

New #YouTube video out for YT Members. I'm tackling my own custom biome system. So that I can use it to spawn on static meshes, or even float in the air, and so I can then have full control! ๐Ÿ˜œ

It becomes public for everyone tomorrow at 9am Pacific at: www.youtube.com/@Procedural_...

Just trying to get some feedback in case I could theoretically offer whatever it is you'd want. No promises though. ๐Ÿ˜œ

I asked you guys if you'd be interested in seeing how to create a cave system in #UnrealEngine. You all said yes. By combining #PCG with #GeometryScripting, it becomes quite simple. :)

This is only the beginning. Tutorial coming soon!

For this Sunday's video I'm finally going to create a true getting started with #PCG tutorial. Going over the very basics, like debugging, what are attributes, some key nodes to know, things like that. Trying to help people understand other PCG tutorials easier. Hopefully. :)

Playing around with #UnrealEngine #PCG by combining Runtime Hierarchical Generation, and Level Instances, to create modular mazes that work at any size.

I'll do a video on Runtime Hi-Gen and pitfalls to avoid. Some things weren't as intuitive as I hoped.

Combining #UnrealEngine's #PCG with Instanced Actors allows you to recreate popular gameplay mechanics you see in other games.

This time around I recreate the functionality you see in Fall Guys' Hex-A-Gone game. You can learn how to do it yourself here:

Today marks 2 years since I started my YouTube channel. I never thought I would get this much support, even during the full life time of the channel.

I will continue helping others, just like others have helped me. So thank you all very much! โ™ฅ

YouTube has decided to disable receiving emails when someone comments.

In the past I replied within a few minutes, now it's going to take longer potentially. I will still continue to reply to every single one, so don't worry. Just wait for it.

Thanks for the support!โ™ฅ

It'll never replace Houdini, but some things are definitely now possible to do without needing to leave Unreal. Which is really nice. :)
