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.
The Ecto-Rush Early Access Special Demo is OUT! Give it a try! It's a teaser of what's to come.
It's been a lot of work to make Unreal Engine 5 do various "2D Retro Effects" but there's progress made.
