About The Absolute Beginner's Guide To Unreal Engine 4 and 5!
IMPORTANT: Everything you'll learn in this course can be applied to the new release of Unreal Engine 5.
The new features of
UE5
such as
LUMEN
and
NANITE
are
_not_
covered in this course yet, however. You can even switch the layout of
UE5
back to classic
UE4
if you'd like to make it easier to follow along. (I prefer the slick new layout of UE5 myself) _Keep in mind that_
_Unreal Engine 5_
_requires a powerful computer to run efficiently, so be sure that your computer is powerful enough to run the program._
_Unreal Engine 4_
_runs much faster on less powerful computers, so many people are staying with this version until they can upgrade their machines._
