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

[GES]

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!

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.

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

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.

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 😊

[GES]

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

[GoodguyGastly]

Thank you for this! Lots of cool resources here

[haxcrossoverit]

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

[evansbohl]

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

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

[shetkar]

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

[az-ru]

I started with Ute my for very basics and after that YouTube is most helpful

[JonJagsNee]

10/10 I second all of these resources :D

[Wizastudios]

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.

[Megasteakman]

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

[invadorop]

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

[GES]

I wish the YouTubers 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

[nospimi]

Does anyone know of any YouTube 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.
