  1. The DataSmith importer page: Datasmith Plugins for Unreal Engine | Unreal Engine 5.2 Documentation
    This page, at the bottom, links to another page, which is also in the page hierarchy, that seems to not exist. It is labeled “Datasmith-Supported Platforms” and the link is Datasmith Supported Platforms | Unreal Engine 5.2 Documentation. Upon visiting, I am redirected to a default docs page (broken page?) with the link https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/WorkingWithContent/Importing/Datasmith/SharingAndReleasing/index.html

The page titled Events, which describes events declared with DECLARE_EVENT, needs a deprecation notice. It describes features of events that are unenforced and they are considered deprecated according to a comment in DelegateCombinations.h:


/**
* Declares a multicast delegate that is meant to only be activated from OwningType
* NOTE: This behavior is not enforced and this type should be considered deprecated for new delegates, use normal multicast instead
*/
#define DECLARE_EVENT( OwningType, EventName ) FUNC_DECLARE_EVENT( OwningType, EventName, void )

Hi,

While I was going through the documentation page, under **The Default Interface **I see the reference Image is wrong, which shows the content browser as a viewports ad viewports as a content browser with wrong numbers on it.

Hope it will get fixed so that newcomers like me won’t be confused.

thanks

Control Rig Blueprint documentation is still hugely out of date. No mention of MetaHumans or definition for Import FBXTo Control Rig etc. So much missing as to be useless.

Hello, im trying to follow the guide doc on vertex animation
Vertex Animation Tool - Timeline Meshes | Unreal Engine Documentation
and all the videos are missing. i get ‘ERROR no source found’ so just reporting that. cheers.

Hi, there are a couple of errors on Using Cluster Events | Unreal Engine Documentation

  • The first two bytes must give the total length of the rest of the message.

should be

  • The first **four **bytes must give the total length of the rest of the message.

and

By default, the primary node listens for Cluster Events on port 14003

should be

I wish Using the Unreal Plugin Language for Mobile Projects in Unreal Engine | Unreal Engine 5.1 Documentation had been updated to list all Android and iOS sections and provide more detailed explanation for each of them.

Hi, I’ve figured out a small mistake on this document: Add a Surface Type | Unreal Engine Documentation. The first picture should be highlighted at Project Setting, instead of Editor Reference.

Hi,

Creating Custom Landscape Importers In Unreal Engine | Unreal Engine 5.2 Documentation says

[]
Implementing the ILandscapeHeightmapFileFormat interface in a plugin requires overriding the following functions:

and then

[]
Implementing the ILandscapeHeightmapFileFormat interface is nearly identical, with only minor differences in some return types:

I believe that last one should instead say ILandscapeWeightmapFileFormat instead of repeating ILandscapeHeightmapFileFormat.

Hi there!
How to load the datasmith file on runtime?
I’ve tried this two link, but still can’t figure out.
https://docs.unrealengine.com/Images/WorkingWithContent/Importing/Datasmith/Overview/CustomizingImportProcess/customized-DS-import.webp
I can’t find the “Construct Datasmith Scene from File” node.

https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/BlueprintAPI/DatasmithRuntime/LoadDatasmithScenefromExplorer/index.html
Use this node “Load Datasmith Scene from Explorer” but nothing happened!

Thanks in advance!

The course, ‘从另一个骨架网格体复制姿势’ (Copy Pose From Mesh), shall be useful but it is totally mass up and meaning less!
I have followed it step by step and finally got the set result, but, it mixed with ‘third person character’ and ‘third person character 1’, so that I don’t know how to apply this method to a real third party character such like ParagonYin, whose Blueprint folder and whose mesh folder should I look for?
Why don’t use a real third party character to explain this method clearly?

need off-line document
because china network slow

…]so if both the parent script and the child script each contain a ReceiveBeginPlay event, only the event in the parent script will fire.

I am pretty sure this should say “the child script will fire” or am I wrong?


This page is generally outdated since years and I had a hard time implementing my struct property customization for the editor after reading this. E.g. this page mentions the class
**ILayoutDetails **
right in the beginning, which does not even exist anymore. There is a whole lot more but pointing those things out is akin to just rewriting the page myself, which I do not feel capable to.
