Programming Fortnite: Verse in UEFN

Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN) is out now. Verse, the new functional logic programming language is what Epic has developed to be the third language in Unreal Engine.

Getting a good feel for what its like to use a language like Verse in practice can be difficult without visuals, so this video shows what the workflow is like for people who are already familiar with programming.

Please make a series, as a c# programmer verse's syntax is so hard for me to get used to and I would love if anyone created a series of videos with examples for verse

I super appreciate your high level look into Verse! Especially for the workflow it was really cool to see the breakdown between what happens at the coding level and how those get into the actual game! Can’t wait to see what folks come up with using it. I wonder how this will change how people create games in Fortnite.

Great intro for pro-programmers. thx man

[yojj]

You can simply push verse code changes if you only made changes to the code, not the world itself. Much faster for verse only work!

This is awesome. Chris' Gun Game when?!

This tutorial is really cool. But when I try and run a code in vscode using verse, it asks me to install a "debug extension" for verse but I can't find any. If anyone knows how to fix this plz help me cuz I would really love to start coding in uefn with verse

i have never programmed or written code in my life and i want to start with fortnite so i think this helps

[limitlessinmind]

Why Epic decided to let people learn completely new programming language that is only used in Fortnite Creator? Doesn't make sense, why not c++ or something that unreal engine users already know????

How to setup vs code editor with unreal engine

Great Video.
Could you start writing a bit more Verse Code with easy Examples like a Counter for Events or Trigger with a Button a Object like a Light or so.

Certe le tuto est bien mais il est deja disponible dans la documentation sur le VERSE disponible dès que vous ouvrez l'UEFN donc il ne m'a pas appris grand choses personnellement

[Bubblebunz]

didnt show how to create a VERSE device...

I've been on the fence about diving into C++ for unreal because I hate how clunky it is. Hopefully this ends up being fully supported in unreal and Rider down the road.

Now we just need this thing to run in Linux.

In unreal engine, I thought I’d be using blueprints (which I’m used to). Now I gotta learn a whole other language. ☹️

[MangaGamified]

had you exported this as a game like .apk? how big was the file?

[LoudNoob]

Any vids planned for us plebs who never wrote a line of code?

[falsehero]

Does this also need visual studio 2019 to compile the codes?

It’s sad that Fortnite has found a way to replace Roblox but despite Roblox killing itself it will live on and on we Robloxians will fight till we die we shall never relent

verse is not opening my vs code, it is installed..
