Unreal Engine 4: Intro to Blueprints

Through this course, students will gain the skills to manipulate Unreal Engine in C++ and create a portfolio.

This course is designed for those who are completely new to the Unreal Engine and covers the UE4 basics that are good to know before moving on to UE5.

🌿 Class Introduction This course focuses on learning Unreal Engine's Procedural Content Generation (PCG) system through a practical, hands-on approach. You will learn step-by-step techniques to automatically place complex terrain, roads, trees, and lighting, allowing you to build an efficient environment production pipeline without repetitive manual work. Rather than just listing nodes, we use a structural approach that can be applied immediately to projects to maximize production speed. 🚀 💡 3 Reasons Why This Class Is Special ❶ Practical PCG Approach We focus on **'project-centered design'** rather than just listing features. By linking core systems such as landscapes, splines, and level instances, you will build an automation pipeline and experience production efficiency at least three times faster than manual work. ⚡ ❷ Full Integration of PCG Graphs × Blueprints We create a structure where artists and programmers can work together by exposing PCG parameters to Blueprints. With a systematic PCG design that can control density, meshes, and even materials, you will secure powerful scalability even for large-scale projects. 🧩 ❸ Automation, Efficiency, and Scalability Implement everything from spline-based automatic placement of roads, streetlights, and fences to material and vegetation changes based on terrain slope. Complete real-world environment automation logic, such as automatically clearing forests around roads using 'Difference' and 'Distance' nodes. 🌲 Instructor Portfolio: twinvion.com

We will implement player controls, animations, and an attack system using Claude Code, and develop boss AI detection, pursuit, attack patterns, and phase transitions using the Behavior package. We will guide you through a step-by-step tutorial.

Want to implement UI effects exactly the way you want, but tired of enduring the engine developer's 'annoyed' look? Does your company also expect you to handle UI effects? Now, it's time to build it yourself! By taking this course, you'll be able to understand and apply other effect creation methods that once seemed too difficult!

Game development is a complex field that goes beyond simple coding to encompass performance optimization, architecture design, collaboration, accessibility, and monetization. This course summarizes the sessions from GameDev Day 2025, a global event hosted by JetBrains, and captures the real-world challenges and solutions that professional developers face in the industry.

"Skip the formulas and code—focus on the principles and visual results!" This lecture was designed for 3D artists and modelers who have given up on understanding PBR (Physically Based Rendering) due to technical barriers. To ensure you can apply it directly to your actual work without any programming knowledge, we explain the visual principles of how light reacts on object surfaces. Basic Physics of Light: We break down intimidating terms like speed of light, illuminance, and luminance into concepts that are easy for artists to understand. Visual Implementation of Surfaces: Learn the Fresnel characteristics inherent in all objects and light reflection based on roughness through 'visual principles' rather than code. Advanced Lighting Techniques: Analyze what difference IBL (Image-Based Lighting) and Global Illumination make in actual modeling results. Understanding the Rendering Equation: Elevate the quality of your work by understanding the Rendering Equation—the core of rendering engines—not as a formula, but as a 'promise' that shows the flow of light. #PBRforArtists #3DModelerCourse #NoCodeGraphics #PhysicallyBasedRendering #PBRPrinciples #RenderingEquation #FresnelEffect #GraphicsforNonMajors #3DRenderingBasics #CGArtist #IntroToRendering #VisualPrinciplesLecture #3DWorkTips

Even if you are new to Unreal Engine, taking this course will help you become familiar with it in just one day. It covers the basics thoroughly and only the necessary parts efficiently.

In the era of agents, true skill comes from 'control.' You will perfectly master the operating principles of agents by building the core architectures of Claude Code—Agent, Tool, MCP, Skill, and AgentTeam—from scratch.
