Unreal Engine July 2024 Free Assets

It's the first Tuesday of the month, so that means it's time for more free Unreal Engine stuff! Each month Epic Games gives away a number of assets for Unreal Engine developers and this July 2024 is no exception. This month we have 5 new assets that are yours to keep forever if "purchased" before the first Tuesday in August.

If it wasn't for this series popping up in notifications I'd keep forgetting to get these.

For the buggy level in WorldDirectorPro, it is caused by an unlucky setting in it. In that level, the BP WorldDirectorNpcPRO has a Max Distance Show Simulation set to 35000, which is way to high, reset it to its default, which is 15000, and that level will run smooth :)

Your series on this inspires me to learn Unreal finally! It's been on my to-do list for years and giveaways like this month amounting to over $500 really help. Such gratitude, thank you.

Not sure what's happening with that second npc spawn demo, but you can see that it keeps loading more and more npcs in the background, over 2000, then dumps them and restarts adding more. That seems like what is making that demo chug. Maybe it's a way to test your system for how many you can handle.

I remember looking at the character controller system. But I usually end up building my own, since it just seems like less of a hassle most of the time.

But it will be interesting to see how it was put together, and more of the same for the plugin's.

FYI, the free assets are now actually free

Weird as of 9:54am est. the assets are showing up under the free for the month category, but they're still full price.

I've noticed the best looking scenes in unreal are when there is no sunlight.. if you notice that all the best and realistic scenes are when the weather is overcast, and no sun or shadow !

This months giveaways truly do feel free… I feel sorry for anyone who paid for them. Mediterranean one is fine but others are so bad I don’t even want to redeem them for free

[hbirtt]

Pretty good month IMO. Nothing spectacular, but a lot more interesting than some months. As usual grateful to Epic for everything they've given us over the years, and to Mike for continuing to remind us to grab them, and showcasing them for us. It's a good time to be in the hobby.

Could you do a video comparing gamemaker and Godot 4 as they are now in 2024? I know it's not really the subject of this video, but I dont really know where else I could ask...

[PurpleKnightmare]

Dang, I can't get those assets. I get them in my cart, and when I click on Place Order, it just sits there spinning. x.x

[Bikarjx]

It’s a good month. environment stuff it’s just counterproductive, especially for newbie that’s still learning how to make a gameplay kind of stuff.

[ItzVic]

for some reason those assets don't appear on the homepage and when I click on the "free for the month" dropdown it shows them paid, but this is a nice combo for starting a new project

they appear in the free for the month tab, but they are not free..

Did you build the first map with the parts or is there a prebuilt map already included?

[rremnar]

Magical shields look ok, the rest is crap IMO. You're better off making your own effects. Also I recognize some effects from magical shields from old tutorials.
The mediterranean coast pieces look OK, but that example world was shit. You'll need more tree varieties and ground textures to blend in to make it look good.
The cell shaded stylized environment looks good, but kind of plain, but that's fine if that is all it's offering.
The low poly environment looks OK as well; but where have I seen that before?
The 3rd environment, the one that bugged out, looks really nice.
Of course these are just my opinions, and I'm sure your opinions may differ and that's cool with me.

[ragnarrandom]
