Managed to figure out how to apply palettes to low color sprites in #UnrealEngine5. The flashing ones are randomizing their palettes every frame.
Still working on an easy to edit palette data system, but it works!!
Apparently you can soft-lock Mega Man & Bass 
(I didn't save, so I'm cooked for this playthrough.)
It's been a lot of work to make Unreal Engine 5 do various "2D Retro Effects" but there's progress made.
This one is actually manipulating a Paper Tilemap layer in real time, not a solid texture.
Looks like it is Kim Kaphwan's day! Got me thinking about his KOF15 outfit in NeoGeo Pocket Color style... There's a lot of small details so I had to reduce it somewhat to fit 
This tweet from a mutual got my optimization psychopathy going.
I made Nodes to combine functionality for better aesthetics, variety, & (hopefully) performance.
Details & Benchmark in reply!
BIG ANNIVERSARY UPDATE!!
It's been a very difficult year. The paralysis, which I am still recovering from, and the medical bankruptcy that followed. In spite of that progress was made, maybe not as much as I'd like, but look!
You can mark Macro nodes as *Development Only* but they STILL GET CALLED IN SHIPPING?! 
#UnrealEngine #UnrealEngine5 (I'm using 5.5.4)
If Time is paused for any Actor that uses my #UnrealEngine5 Time Control system, all of their SFX also automatically pause.
I can put Actors into Time Groups. In this example the Parent Time Source for "Gameplay" is paused, so 'everything' pauses.
I am now an Unreal Engine developer. Even if Unity Engine walks every word back how could anyone trust them again? Do we continue on where at any moment they can retroactively change the rules? I will not live under that fear. I'm done with them. Deets
