I don't know what's more impressive. The fact that they can pave the way for engines or the fact that they are creating things faster than we can learn them. Kudos to them

Motion Matching... please make a tutorial about how to use it in order to achieve this level of quality in character movement!

This technology and where it's going is absolutely incredible... everytime I watch one of these videos I reopen my old projects.

I'd take a 5 hour animation tutorial from sensei any day

Small correction, Rocket Racing does not have the same physics as Rocket League. They only share the name and cosmetics.

3:50 As a Sejor animator in Maya i'm... really happy about this!!!! I just hope there's a way to add your own synoptics.

While I am a programmer, I don't make 3D games. I don't use Unreal 5. I've never used Unreal engine or any other gaming engine. And yet I get unreasonably excited every time Unreal Sensei posts a new video about Unreal 5 just b/c I get to see the awesome new features that will be used in future video games. This dude is a 10/10 RU-vidr. (PS - Lumen still blows my mind)

man I wish you made a tutorial on how you made ur landscape auto material pack. I also would be happy to see you make a more in depth tutorial for baked lightings. keep up the great work man, your UE5 tutorial was my gateway, now I'm in too deep

Great video as always! Thanks man. This was a great update. Have you found any documentation on how to use the new Biome stuff? I found it in the plugins, but I can' really find what it turned on and where.

as always straight to the point and no filler. Great update, as usual!

Hello sensei. I'm watching one of your videos for the very first time. Its the begginer tutorial ofc. I'm loving it, and hope to get a silly game running soon :D Thank you for the content!

it will be great of you can go over the performance improvements in CPU and GPU time in unreal 5.4 and it will be great if you will be able to also test them

Motion Graphics are on Unreal 5.4 now, with a bunch of cool tools

Looks like you're gonna have a lot of work doing tutorials on all these new features 😅 I know you have a great landscape material but any chance you could cover layering displacements like they do in this road scene?

Really hyped about the performance improvements to Nanite & Lumen as well, which they talked about!

Excellent summary assembled in a short time! Hopefully Epic will release the Talisman as a sample environment.

Could you make a PCG for a city or residential district. Im working on a game, and so far the most time consuming part is city building. Is it possible to make the buildings follow a specific theme as a PCG?

3:54 that was so funny and random xD

thanks for your ramp up

Im so FREAKING HYPED!!! i love unreal engine and the conference kicked butt!

Hello Sensei, I'm a masterclass student of yours, and a big fan of your tutorial videos. Thank you so much for all the effort you are doing. Just a quick question, can you please share with us the dunes landscape you show in this video when you were talking about the PCG oasis ?, the sand dunes looks so nice, I would be really happy to get this material. Thanks.

Sensie, we need another Complete Unreal 5.4 Beginner tutorial!

do You update Your masterclass course for those new features?

Will you make another uefn video soon? I would love to watch a multi hour video about it in one sitting

Setting the bar extremely high, perfect video

cant wait your other tutorial using this version

super helpful

Many UE games are plagued by traversal stuttering issues (on the PC versions at least) is there any way to help alleviate those issues or is it a dev optimisation problem that they dont invest resources into fixing, an engine problem? Ik the Finals is probably the only UE5 game without this issue (for me) and its CPU utilisation is still increibly low like other UE titles and it holds them back. I hope they address these things. Extra context: Right now every late 2020 onwards UE4 and UE5 game I have played feels like a beautiful tech demo that I wish just ran better, not even in terms of FPS but traversal stutters that ruin the experience or the FPS is held back like in the case of the finals where it only utilises such a small portion of the CPU holding the GPU back serverly especially when DLSS or FSR are enabled even in quality mode. It also makes RTX way more taxing to turn on since it too is a CPU taxing task.

Where is the biome generator? I can’t seem to find it. Also, I’ve been struggling to get Nanite Displaxement working in 5.4 preview, any gotcha’s that you know about?

please make a tutorial on motion matching and maybe make a full tutorial on the locomotion system in Unreal Engine when the 5.4 update is released.

7:23 is it possible to get those lighter metahumans to UE5? I've got many metahumans in my project and they eat up majority of the space

with vr slowly becoming better and more mainstream and game graphics and performance becoming more advanced it looks like we're only a few more year away from a Ready Player One future

Anyone knows where should i be looking for/how to start: I'd like the player to be able to create custom assets from within the game. What are the keywords, starting points for such a goal?

बहुत सुंदर प्रसंगानुसार व्याख्या और प्रस्तुति 👏👏👏।

Will the Metahuman optimization that you pointed out from almost 1gb to 60 mb also be in UE5.4? Or are they now in? You only said it was in UEFN

do the foot steps collide properly on displaced nanite terrain or would they pass through the terrain?

We need more UEFN tutorials !! :)

Bruh I wish you posted more content, glad to see you upload something anyways

Cant wait for the next mega tutorial!

Wish there was a future that would let you import material nodes from other softwares (such as blender) into unreal 5.

where do I get the displacement material thingy?

man this is getting crazy. these tools are making some insane advancements 😲

Any updates on the good water system getting out of Beta?

do feet rest on real poly mesh or adjusted visual height ?

Anyone know what asset the armor in the thumbnail is from?

This is so cool. This level of realism in games is what i dreamed of when i was a child. I am curious to know how this new engine will work with environment destruction in fps games. I remember the level of immersion given by the Battlefield games thanks to the scripted house damages etc, i can only imagine how cool it will be if the whole environement can be affected by explosions and bullets, both visually and with ricochets and fragments flying.

Really hoping Session skate sim makes good use of those animation features mentioned at 3:05 once they transition to UE5

soo, how optimized is it to run on anything other than cutting edge tech?

Hello Sensei! I hope you are doing well. I humble request to you, please make a complete course on environement design just like before with cover all these Unreal Engine 5.4 features. Also cover performance and optimization of the Environement design. Because, we make environement. But we don't know to optimize the environment just like AAA studios. Thanks!

Can u make a tutorial about architectural walk-through with interactions...

Good update!

What are the minimum specs requirements for UEFN?

Damn i wish i could learn how to do all this coding so i could create/hire dev help to dev a game in unreal 5. This all looks so incredible!

Nice Job 👍🤩🤫🤔💯🔥😎😉

any news about Nanite and path tracer?

How many more UE updates before it can turn my computer monitor into a portal that I can step through and be in the game myself?

thanks!

You're awesome, sensei.

this engine is the gift that keeps on giving

Did they ever release the meta human android app yet?

Hy plzz anybody help me im new to ue i tried to downlode asset from quixel bridge but it showing error like. Asset not available in UAsseet format why plzz help

Can you make a tutorial on how to put ur free landscape material in a new project

It's all incredible and all but we STILL don't have games that use ninite & lumen from 5.0 ... half a decade later. The motion matching is really nice to see. Def the future of player character's mouvement.

Every year it gets more unreal

Unreal Engine is one of the most impressive software tools I use as a concept artist! It has almost all the features I need now! The only thing that's annoying me is clothes; we don't have an in-app cloth creator 😢

My man Alex bouta be making some baller UE5 stuff. Bet

The time and effort they invested in creating verse and UEFN, they could have used it to fix the bugs in UE.

Thanks for the free material man! The only thing i dont like about UEFN is that i can't bring my own assets that I bought from the marketplace to build a world :/

Wow this is fookin insane

very cool

Fall Guys isn't actually in UEFN yet, it's coming later this year

I love that new Fortnite updates will be made using UEFN only. It reminds me of the PlayStation LittleBigPlanet series, where all the story mode levels for all 3 games were made in the same Level Editor that all the players had access to.

3:54 when she finaly convinces you to get on the dance floor

we need motion graphics tutorials sensei 😅

Is it ridiculous to consider using UE 5.4 on a Mac? Is the software even optimized for M silicon or am I better off getting a PC? And if Macs are fine, how much RAM should I opt for?

Wasn't this update also going to add better multi threaded performance?

amazing

3:54 LOL!

I am no graphics expert but damn I'm excited for the future of games with this new tech

Really interest in the realistic character making

It just keeps getting better....jaw dropping. You're the best man appreciate all your courses (best money I have ever spent in Unreal) and all your content here, keep up the good work.

i started with 3d graphics in 3dstudio. 1996 tried doing star wars stuff. 1 image took 1 week. 1 second took forever. then 3ds max. more possibilities. faster graphics. but also wanting more. still extremely limited. then came stuff like hair and cloth. all extremely tricky and requiring multiple steps. then poser, for easier figures. and more smaller programs like monster maker. to see now how easy it all is. beautifull.

Can we please get a tutorial on how to animate completely in unreal? Like a series going over metahuman animator, cloth chaos, uefn animator, importing animations, set design, and sound. I want to fully create 3d animated films in unreal now that's its possible.

This technology just continues to blow my mind. Holy...

I really hope that "Save the world" will also be getting updated with all this

@TracePSD it automatically downlode when i downlode ue5 from epic

Motion Matching is the most exciting for me in this update, it's been way too long to get incredible animations in realtime

This keeps developing into the biggest CGI revolution we have ever witnessed

Unreal Engine is so groundbreaking! We are going to see games produced in less than half the time. INCREDIBLE!

Please can you make a tutorial about snow you mentioned in this video? Actually there is no tutorial inyt like that!:D there are bunch about snow but they are not that great!

I’m not a Fortnite player, but I’m a big believer that modding tools foster genre innovations and inspire developers. it’s clear Epic is paving the ground for the future with everything they’re doing here.

The UEFN scene graph is shocking. I find the scene graph approach used by Unity and Godot to be far more intuitive than always tucking logic into Blueprints. I excited to see Unreal separating from the dogma of the blueprint pattern.

So awesome

this makes me wunna try to take on making a hunting game but ik ill never even get paced trying to make a map xD

Awesome, it now looks as good as my Modded Skyrim.

I came here to comment that when I asked GEMINI for the best UE5 tutorials for beginners on youtube. It answered immediately UNREAL SENSEI is your man for the job! :D

Would it be possible to use Metahuman to create a character to use as an avatar for Vtubing setup?

Exceptional 🔥🔥🔥🔥🥳👍🎊🎉🏆😁! Thank You 🙏 🎉🏆! (...needs more dead goblin bodies 😁)

I know it could be a very demanding task for developers to upgrade from Unreal 4 to 5. Do you know how hard it is going to be for new UE patches during development?
