Why is nobody on these forums helpful anymore? I keep opening up questions and bug reports and nobody responds! Have people abandoned these forums?
Why are all the options that I have been using up until now been disabled or removed? Why are plugins compatibility locked and can no longer be installed? Why is procedural foliage disabled and not available when it was before? Why are my material previews within blueprints broken and display as black boxes?
I was excited for this update but it has been a huge disappointment and waste of time. Nothing works and my project is pretty much broken thanks to these stupid backwards changes. Is there no quality control or proper testing involved before these updates are pushed? I get that using the latest version of the editor is optional but I would have rather waited an extra month than have to deal with this garbage.
I am seriously annoyed over the time wasted and these forums are so dead.
feels like 2 steps forward 1 step backward sometimes.
my project started on 5.1. then move to 5.3 then 5.4. (tried 5.5 and 5.6. both broke many aspects i wasnt prepared to chase up on ) 5.7 looks promising first time i seen performance gains OOB without doing anything (havent upgraded project to 5.7) but still a couple of major issues.
i use landscape tool. its still a bit broken for me. but was totally unusable in 5.5/5.6 (manage/add landscape tiles scuffed as hell) enums and other da’s broke.
but yeah. 5.7 (with smaa and mover and the other new toys do look amazing) and yeah feels a bit dead here. its almost as if things are handled somewhere else (discord) perhaps. and people dont follow up here anymore. ?
I think the main issue lies with not enough staffing to go through all the posts on here. The one guy is a volunteer and he’s been around for years. Sometimes I’ll hear from other people but rarely if it’s to help troubleshoot something that’s not working out within the editor.
