Quick room building system

[KVogler]

In UDK, it was possible to create rooms very quickly using a builder brush that could be copied and pasted.

You can duplicate/paste BSP brushes in UE4

What it does not say is that this also stretches the floor texture in X and Y, so even a nicely looking texture is stretched so much to the max that it looks horrible.

That is how BSP brushes are UV unwrapped.

I understand that not every level has rooms or houses - there are beautiful games with tropical islands and deep forrests, but let’s admit that rooms are appearing quite often in levels or MOST games

But UE4 is designed for more than just games. If I was doing automotive industry content, I couldnt care less about BSP brushes.

Sure puzzle games and vertical scrolling shooters might still have an audience, but that’s probably not what most people think of when they get a 3D engine.

Pure (and incorrect) assumption

Just add a few dozen more high quality props to the startup pack - because this is what 95% of all people use for their first experiments with UE4 - and if these assets already look very impressive then these people will also be impressed much more. Add more wall materials, some light switches, Power sockets, realistic doors, windows, closets, desks, books, vases…alll kinds of small decoration

You are asking to turn UE into a sort of mod-kit. Not every project needs light switches, etc.

It takes so much time to research that stuff

Thats the blues of the game developer
If you are completely new to it, it takes years to learn just the decent basics.
And there is no fancy content that could make you avoid that…

Things in the engine are kept as game agnostic as possible.
And there will never be a “Make game now” button

… One thing granted though: Epic could provide indeed more material on some of the engine elements. cough-slate-cough
