The best places to learn Unreal in 2023 

Hey did I forget any great resources? What are they???

I would love to see a video of how everything comes together, from desktop icon through begin play, to save and quit. Not the individual stuff like how to make a landscape, or how to make an inventory, but how it all ties together with file structure and call order, etc. I finally built a workstation but every tutorial video i find goes straight from teaching the UI, to advanced stuff thats over my head. I can learn the individual stuff, but im overwhelmed with figuring out how it all ties together, because its hard to find a good tutorial that explains it

This video came out exactly when I needed it! it's always so frustrating getting stuck in Unreal Engine because I can't find a good way to solve a problem or implement a feature, thank you for the video!

Thanks a lot! This video is honestly wonderful, just what I needed it the most, thank you!

love you mate looking forward to more videos on UE. this helped me a lot.

New to Unreal. I've already found a few videos of your very helpful, so I'm subscribing!

This is awesome. I’ve been wanting to learn UR and Vtube with it for live virtual production. I think I can learn so much from your channel.

Thank you for this! Lots of cool resources here

Pure gold content, thank you.

Another great video, I think this will help a lot of people!

Your channel is very helpful!

Thanks man, I just started my game development bachelor and couldn't find the good tutorials on youtube as i did for unity.

Gorka, and BadDecisions are both really great teachers for Unreal Engine. You should give them a shout out in one of your next videos. :)

Appreciate the shout my friend 🤙🏾

Tanx for ur big help man

if anyone else is a self taught hobbyist what helped me was learning about design patterns, soft referencing, async, writing tests and learning how to make a ULM charts before during and after anything major or creative... also commenting every major node helped in the early days and don't neglect learning shader languages... if you're new to programming i would even suggest starting here 😊

10/10 I second all of these resources :D

Hey WoodyDevs! Thank you so much for the shoutout! 😁 I discovered your content a few weeks ago and I like it a lot 😊

I started with Ute my for very basics and after that RU-vid is most helpful

Let me just clarify, while fundimentally UE4 & 5 are quite similar with a lot of their functionality, much of the UI has changed making guides from UE4 irrelevant - sometimes even with 5.0 vs 5.1 guides. So while you can definitely use UE4 tutorials just know that a lot of the Ui will not work in the same way.

Please recommend a good place to learn c++ for unreal engine

From a coding perspective (as a non-coder), learning OOP fundamentals was important. Tutorials generally do not talk about this aspect at all, yet it seems to often be why people have problems with learning - at least the level I am at looking for solutions to my own problems.

Does anyone know of any RU-vid channels that have videos where they just focus on teaching how to implement one key feature in a game. Like a 20 minute video that shows how to implement hit stun. Or a 15 minute video tutorializing how to add a wall jump to your character. The only channel I can find that does this is @CodeCobra but he sadly doesn’t have too many videos like this and I burned through them quick. I love these videos cause they usually aren’t made for brand new entry learners so it’s not a ton of retreaded ground, I usually learn about new nodes and functions, plus they can be simple concepts that can usually be applied to other instances too.

What a Great video, thank you so much!! The tutorials from a year ago, for example Unreal Sensei's ones, are up to date or Unreal has made major changes?

Ive actually only started learning unreal engine a little over a month ago. I made a model in fusion 360 but now I need to texture it. I dont know where to start. Textures and materials seem so confusing

I wish the RU-vidrs that have well established channels, would take a fresh look at the playlists they have made, and fill in the gaps between videos, to teach noobies like me how they went from one thing to the next. Every playlist i find seems way out of order like ADHD style, or missing critical beginner info before moving on

How did you get the charater

Do i have to learn coding for UN?

HELLNO UE4 IS NOT LIKE UE5, i've been looking for a way to make a simple asset gun(rifle) work with fps arms and i cant find a single tutorial that works for 5.2 im just frustrated with this

What about Unity?

Um... Unreal Engine 4 is vastly different to UE5 - the lighting, HUD, and a ton of smaller things are different between them. It'll trip up the newbies who are looking for EXACT help and don't know enough to work around problems

if u want have teach how to write code guys I'll introducing AI CHAT DEEPAI the AI CHAT DEEPAI is so powerful and much better than OPENAI since start 2015-2018 and u can show ur picture and video and anything u want

i find your avatar to detract from the video significantly

Heeeyyy where am I on that list?? :P But seriously, congrats on your growing channel! Personally when I need to learn something about Unreal it's 90% of the time gonna happen on RU-vid, 10% of the time on Reddit. My own experience with Discord is that I often never get a reply and the few times I did it wasn't all that usefull, so I only post there if I'm really desperate. It seems very active though so maybe I just don't know how to get the best out of it *shrug*. I've never seen a course so far about something I couldn't find on RU-vid or other places for free 😁, but I guess it's usefull if you want a more consistent and longer series of videos that takes you from a to z instead of looking for 15 places to get the same thing for free. Recently ChatGPT has also been a huge help ( when it gets it right 😅). Anyways great video! Keep at it :)

Is @SmartPoly one of those good RU-vid educators?
