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.

You can mark Macro nodes as *Development Only* but they STILL GET CALLED IN SHIPPING?!

This tweet from a mutual got my optimization psychopathy going.

I made Nodes to combine functionality for better aesthetics, variety, & (hopefully) performance.

When Dr Wily goes HARDSTYLE

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.

I DEMAND another Mega Man Show!

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!

The wavy background effect can do both directions, even at the same time. (FPS is low because it's playing in Editor.)

Are you doing unnecessary work when calling Delegates in #UnrealEngine?

I wrote an article about this small topic since I was dealing with it recently (it's free to read!) Includes examples and fancy Macros.
