Please make video on procedural generation or on bake lighting and static mesh with blueprints

Man, thank you for showing how to do it manually chain by chain, and explaining everything systematically and coherently, most tutorials are incoherant and go very fast and dont explain everything. And they use the easy way of just swapping out the mesh. Im gonna subscribe, and follow along for now.

Calypso is such a pretty model, such a perfect example character!

I needed this so badly and you did the best job at explaining how the new IK retargeting works, thank you.

Amazing tutorial, better than a lot I've seen lately. Please keep up with this incredible content. What I liked the most is the fact that you don't rush things out to have a 10 min video, in fact you explain every single parameter and why to use every single one of them. Thanks!!

You seem to have made a lot of helpful tutorials here. I just clicked through every video to look at the number of views on each one. I see the views dropped with almost every video produced, but I'm sure it isn't your fault. Please don't get discouraged with making this type of content. Tutorial series will only be followed through by a small number of people who start watching them. Please keep it up! For the FOUR THOUSAND PLUS people who have watched all of them, you've been extremely helpful. If that means we have 4k new devs out there making great games or a ton of new scenebuilders, you've done the gaming world a massive favor, my friend. Thank you. :)

I could really use a tutorial on road systems in general - in particular I need road solutions for rts and strategy games, so I would need buildings to know whether they have road access.

is there a way to preview a weapon in my character so i can fine tune the hands before i even export the anims? Seems like a lot of work eyeballing it, exporting, than adding a weapon and fine tunning it that way.
