I am a new sound designer for epic games and am a complete noob when it comes to Unreal engine 5, I just want to use it to upload wav files for use in games, my computer is definitely on the low end of processing power and my graphics card can barely handle the program. when i open up a new project with no starter content there is still a background with shaders and a grid. I want to disable that completely so i can save a template project to just focus on sound assets.
Hey @NirnrootNoises
you can use this to have an empty project:
Template.zip (98.8 KB)
Copy the folders of the zip to your UE5 installation dir.
This will add:
TP_EmptyBP to your UE5/Templates/ folder
EmptyLevel.umap to your UE5/Engine/Content/Maps/Templates/ folder
EmptyLevel.uasset to your UE5/Engine/Content/Maps/Templates/Thumbnails/ folder
Overwrite UE5/Engine/Config/BaseEngine.ini
Inside the BaseEngine.ini there is just a new line:
+TemplateMapInfos=(Thumbnail="/Engine/Maps/Templates/Thumbnails/EmptyLevel",Map="/Engine/Maps/Templates/EmptyLevel",DisplayName="EmptyLevel")
But create a copy of your BaseEngine.ini just in case
