Josh Posted June 19 Posted June 19 I am working on what I call the Leadwerks 5 Crash Course: https://www.leadwerks.com/learn/crashcourse Video playlist is here. The idea is to teach you how to use the most important features in the editor, without going into too much detail, and without using any code. The lessons come in text form, with a lot of images and animated GIFs, and a short video at the start. I'm running out of ideas of what to write about next. Please tell me what needs to be included! 2 Quote My job is to make tools you love, with the features you want, and performance you can't live without.

I think I will hold off on this right now, since prefabs currently do not generate a thumbnail in the editor. I am keeping all my video clips in one folder so the videos can easily be remixed and expanded later. 1 Quote My job is to make tools you love, with the features you want, and performance you can't live without.
Josh Posted June 20 Author Posted June 20 I think it the current list might actually be complete...it looks like it is turning into a level designer's guide. The two things I notice that are missing are how to add a skybox, and an example of flowgraph connections. 2 Quote My job is to make tools you love, with the features you want, and performance you can't live without.
mdgunn Posted June 21 Posted June 21 Particles might be a useful video. Wish there was a little more control over them. For some scenarios e.g. a smoke filled room I can get something OK, but not great. 4 Quote
yurembo Posted Sunday at 03:33 AM Posted Sunday at 03:33 AM In the last version of Ultra Engine materials still don't work? Quote
Thirsty Panther Posted Sunday at 03:52 AM Posted Sunday at 03:52 AM They work fine for me. Is this in the editor or using code? In the editor make sure you are using material. mat file and not the texture file which will end in .dds or .png. p.s you should report errors in the bug reports section. https://www.leadwerks.com/community/forum/120-bug-reports/ Quote
yurembo Posted Sunday at 04:11 AM Posted Sunday at 04:11 AM Everything is fine! I just restarted editor... 1 Quote
yurembo Posted Sunday at 10:29 AM Posted Sunday at 10:29 AM So I found another problem with materials and wrote about in "Bug reports" Quote
Dreikblack Posted 21 hours ago Posted 21 hours ago Another suggestion for Crash Course is how to find entities (via scene, tags etc.) - it's often topic in discord. Also could be combined with casting. Quote Check out Slipgate Tactics demo, which is made with Ultra Engine: https://www.leadwerks.com/community/topic/61480-slipgate-tactics-demo/

WazMeister Posted 19 hours ago Posted 19 hours ago Amazing and 100% big improvement for getting others started / learning. Massive step in right direction, cant wait for more! 1 1 Quote Dream since child of making games! From Game Programming Starter Kit 3.0, Blitz Basic, Map Creation since Duke 3D, Game Maker, Blitz3D (of recent..2023) and many other engines and years..... never really sticking to it with inner struggles that I've had to fight along with pushing to learn and acheive. 40 years old.. came across Leadwerks on Steam... Learning slowly but surely and loving it! Learn with me or just watch me fail! at my random Youtube Channel, as I stream adhoc while learning and using LeadWerks and other game creating tools. https://www.youtube.com/@wazmeister3151/featured
