Additional Project

Hi all! I'm also working on an additional project, if you want to see the updates please check out the following blog!

[ue4journey]

By now you should be completely capable of developing any application in unreal engine, and if you don’t know how to do something you should now know how to find the resources to do so. For some these 48 days will take longer and that’s completely fine. Everybody starts somewhere and there’s a lot of coverage through out these days.

I didn’t create these tutorials but I found them very useful in the order I provided them. Thank you everyone for following and learning unreal.

Unreal engine 5 is out now and is going to be making your life a lot easier now that we have metahuman, nanite, and mega scans built in to the engine.

I hope all of you continue learning and exploring unreal engine and creating your best games!

Blueprints to C++ : Day 42 of 42

The same individual who uploaded the Blueprints to C++ tutorials also uploaded several UE5 tutorials that might be worth checking out, beyond that there are other advanced concepts you can check out. A couple are linked below, however at this point you should be comfortable in the engine to continue this journey of learning on your own.

Start creating!

Create a project using C++, Whatever you feel comfortable making, again. Make a start. It doesn’t have to be complicated. Pong/Galaga/Etc. Utilize the UE4 Documentation.

If you don’t know how to do something, google it! There’s something somewhere for everything.

Unreal even released a community forum recently that I highly recommend you check out at https://dev.epicgames.com/community/

Enums are used when we know all possible values at compile-time, such as choices on a menu, rounding modes, command-line flags, etc.

a struct is a structured piece of data. An object is a sovereign entity that can perform some sort of task. In most systems, objects have some state and as a result have some structured data behind them. However, one of the primary functions of a well-designed class is data hiding — exactly how a class achieves whatever it does is opaque and irrelevant.

Since classes can be used to represent classic data structures such as arrays, hash maps, trees, etc, you often see them as the individual things within a block of structured data.

An array is a block of unstructured data. In many programming languages, every separate thing in an array must be of the same basic type (such as every one being an integer number, every one being a string, or similar) but that isn't true in many other languages.

As guidelines:

use an array as a place to put a large group of things with no other inherent structure or hierarchy, such as "all receipts from January" or "everything I bought in Denmark"

use structured data to compound several discrete bits of data into a single block, such as you might want to combine an x position and a y position to describe a point

use an object where there's a particular actor or thing that thinks or acts for itself

The implicit purpose of an object is therefore directly to associate tasks with the data on which they can operate and to bundle that all together so that no other part of the system can interfere. Obeying proper object-oriented design principles may require discipline at first but will ultimately massively improve your code structure and hence your ability to tackle larger projects and to work with others.

Blueprints to C++ : Day 29 of 42

Now that we have blueprints down, its time to establish the foundation of C++ and start Mastering the fundamentals of C++. Once you are done with this section you should have a strong understand of how to do most, if not everything in a project using C++.
