Any one know, when there will be a new hairworks branch for 4.17? And one question: How can i use more than one branch. Like Hairworks + Flex or something? @Len80 You have to link your unreal account with the github account. There is a small tutorial from epic about it. Thats why you get error. ---

Hi, I’ve currently been testing VXGI 4.15 out which works well but I’ve come across an, since it’s quite important to have lightbaking supported for static scene’s. I’ve rebuild UnrealLightmass which fixes the of scene’s not getting baked anymore. But now on objects using LOD’s specifically one’s generated with UE4 itself I get lightmap flickering when lod’s pop. only happens in the VXGI build anybody else experienced or has a fix for ? Would be much appreciated! Fixed myself by adjusting source code in StaticMesh.cpp, StaticMesh.h and StatichMeshRender.cpp ---

Hi all. I’ve been trying out VXGI in 4.17. I’m getting horrible stuttering. https://media.giphy/media/3o7aD4KdEIpKNNP6HC/giphy.gif is with a blank project, but it doesn’t just persist graphically, it affects the entire editor. I can’t develop anything because i have to time my clicks to be in the high framerate part of the stutter. My system settings: i7 6700k 32gb RAM GTX 1080 Windows 10. ---

Hello DmHookie, I have a couple of suggestions I got into making my own VR games in past month. I was able to get translucent water in the vrfunhouse project.

Anyone with VXGI 4.17 having trouble with VS throwing out errors caused by StageFiles? Its giving me errors for the VXGI/HBAO stagefiles on top of other inputs for other plugins. 😕 The error also comes bundled with “error CS1503: Argument 1: cannot convert from ‘UnrealBuildTool.DirectoryReference’ to ‘string’” So close to finally upgrading to the new engine and can take advantage of Volumetric Fog, but is the only things preventing the transition. ---

Maybe check my pullrequest, i had to fix a similar: /pull/368/files Sidenote: There’s a new repo named “Blast” which seems to provide incredible destructions. It sounds incredible! Can’t wait to see what those destruction looks like, i’m downloading now. The timing is just perfect as i’m working on some Level design right now, it’s fantastic ! 😃 ---
