Unreal Engine has a nice feature called AsyncTask, which is used to execute a code asynchronously. It works by running certain code on a specified thread, and this functionality is mostly used when the task is heavy enough to be executed instantly without blocking the game thread. It also provides a solution to all issues arising from multithreading, in particular, accessing parameters from one thread that are supposed to be used and/or edited in another thread....

Unreal Engine has different approaches to parallelize your code and one of them is ParallelFor. It is used when it is necessary to execute code multiple times with different number-based inputs, basically what a regular for loop does. But unlike a regular for loop that executes sequentially, ParallelFor runs on different threads, with possible different order of execution. Let’s say our task is to simply sum the values from the TArray<int32> array....

Some developers are wondering about the C++ equivalent of the Delay node in Blueprints. In C++, it is not recommended to make delays for cosmetic things. But if there are something that require high optimization, then consider the following ways. There are two ways to implement Delay that are very similar. Use the option that is more readable and convenient for you. Lambas Using FTimerDelegate FTimerDelegate TimerDelegate; TimerDelegate.BindLambda([&] { UE_LOG(LogTemp, Warning, TEXT("This text will appear in the console 3 seconds after execution")) }); FTimerHandle TimerHandle; GetWorld()->GetTimerManager()....

In this quick tutorial, I will show you how to completely disable Tonemapper without using PostProcess To do this, just open the DefaultEngine.ini file (in the [PROJECT_NAME]/Config folder) and add the following lines to [/Script/Engine.RendererSettings] section: r.TonemapperGamma = 0 r.TonemapperFilm = 0 r.Tonemapper.Quality = 0 r.ToneCurveAmount = 0 r.Mobile.TonemapperFilm = 0 r.MobileTonemapperUpscale = 0 r.EyeAdaptationQuality = 0 r.EyeAdaptation.ExponentialTransitionDistance = 0 You can also write the same to the engine’s command line, but I recommend to directly add these lines to a separate file since it’s more convenient....

There are multiple ways to reduce the build size. But on mobile platforms, this issue is most acute. I will show you how I managed to reduce the size of my Android game from 150MB to 50MB. Project settings There are many switches in the project settings that will help reduce the build size. The first thing you can do is set “Build Configuration” to “Shipping” and enable “For distribution”:...
