Cryengien 5.3 vs unreal 4.14

And for Unreal there’s AHR, VXGI, LPV, and DFGI. Still, it doesn’t take away the merits of what the CEV SVOGI is capable of, it runs incredibly fast for what it is and gets great results. It’s also a larger selling point than something like SEGI because the CEV just handles dynamic lighting better than any other engine right now, Crytek’s refusal to bake anything down for years really paid off in the long run with that.

They done an amazing job with SVOGI.

Stingray can not be a competitor with closed source and only one language to script. Yesterday I visited their forums. So many questions without answer.
On the other hand Lumberyard is growing. Amazon is doing its best, taking care to every opinion. Like Epic.

Because it takes time with limited ressources and they are started from a limited engine, while Lumberyard started from CryEngine.
If it is not coming from Autodesk, it will come from Blender

A modeler/animation software with a 3D engine integrated will be another way for game creation.

Yes and that is a big reason why i want them to succeed. The SVOGI is the future and that have made their Engine very flexible and dynamic. In other Engines you must bake the lighting. In cryengine it’s all in real time. I hope that most Major Engines in the future uses this solotion

his solution isn’t good at all.

It’s like you’re walking around with a torch. it doesn’t make sense to use that plugin.

Looks nice. Do you think that the rendering capebilities can stack up to other Engines?

It’s shaders only, so they can at least make something similar and ways better than actual BGE visuals, this is a good step forward, but you can’t expect something advanced like mainsteam engines, because there is lot more than only rendering.
I would prefer some Unreal 4 bridge tool able to connect some working folders with UE4 project folder , and able to re import when it detects changes, somewhat like Stingray and Maya integration.

I know. It get that feeling that epic have made some really cool features like mesh slicing. But have not focused on volumetric lighting. Witch is one of the most voted cards on their roadmap¨
Btw what is BGE? Never heard of it

I don’t need volumetric lighting, perhaps it is the most voted among a few population active on the voting board ?

Obviously Epic has never heard of the customer is always right, so sad

Surprised no one mentioned the pain of being unable to login.
Every few day I tried using it I got blocked by account lockouts.
Non-existent forum moderators (forums where a spam bot writers best test bench).

[LcSweeper]

I think people who use Crtyek’s engine will move to Amazon Lumberyard.

Serious Sunday: We cry for Crytek - Update: Studio closures, Star Citizen moving to Lumberyard

It has come up before in related CE / LY threads if you want to look back…

In the past I noticed if you start 2 editor sessions, the 2nd skips the login.
I pointed it out thinking it might earn kudos and bring help with other issues.
Instead all I got was <insert tumbleweed here>. Next day I uninstalled CE!

CE / LY clearly has interesting level design tools that are missing in UE4.
And as a game engine it does look great especially forest / lake scenarios…
But for everything else there’s … Unity… Just kidding, UE4 forever…

Apologies missed those posts.
Gotta say, going to sleep after using UE4 for a evening, its hard not to vision dem visual scipts. UE4eva!.

[Footman]

CryEngine will stay for sure. Maybe Crytec not. Amazon owns their fork and some big companies are using it. So some of the companies will continue support of Cryengine anyway.

@Packetmonkey;645102

Does this work for UE4?

It’s only for Unity and still in beta

I have more faith in Houdini + UE4

@franktech;644871

UE4 documentation isn’t all that helpful either imo. Its often quicker to just plug nodes in and see what happens!

For me, what CE needs is a wider range of demo / community projects that can be used as a base or starting point.

Is anyone still following developments between LY and CE and UE4? Its almost a year on now, anything interesting?

LY now is pretty much MMO capable out of the box… But, you know, AWS costs a shiton of monies every month.

It is/was Blender Game Engine
