Did you know... You can scan a real world object using photogrammetry apps such as @Polycam3D and @RealityCapture_ and convert the results to #Minecraft schematics? What a great way for students to bring the real world to their mcworld. @PlayCraftLearn @cleverlike

Come see how to create a Master Sequence from multiple Sequences in #UnrealEngine. We also cover how to create an animated flythrough of your worlds, great for Virtual Production, guiding players, or just showing off your portfolio.

Love this feature.

A feature that snuck past a lot of folks in UE5.1 is that you can now enable the Waveform Editor plugin to chop up/clean up raw audio in the engine. It's a little thing but it's nice having one less excuse to leave the engine to clean something up! #UETips

Merging objects in #UnrealEngine can be a bit tricky. We created a quick tutorial on the options in the Modeling Tools. Come teach your students how to kitbash. :P

If you haven't seen the ZBrush summit this year, take a few moments to check out the sets. Congrats to and her team for such awesome work.

I can finally announce that my team and I had the honor to make all the virtual sets for the #ZbrushSummit 2022!
These were made from scratch in #UE4 using only ZBrush, Cinema 4D, and Adobe products.

The Switch Actor can be used to switch the active visible actor between each of it’s children.
Use in conjunction with blueprints or the Variant Manager to simplify switching actor variants.

MetaSounds is a sick way for your students to add custom audio to their #UnrealEngine projects. It is incredibly deep so we put together an intro to MetaSound and general audio tips tutorial.

I've been using to teach kids since 2013 and I have the parade float to prove it. Anyone know the mod featured here? (To learn how Deep Space became Cleverlike Studios, listen to our origin story here: makersandnerds.com/makers-and-ner)
