Dropped a small but powerful QoL bomb today 
While writing docs I found that weapons & clothing materials didnāt play nicely with thirdāparty skeletal meshes, so I added two new material functions: MF_StealthMode and MF_WeaponFunctionality.
Now you can just plug MF_WeaponFunctionality into your material, connect its outputs to Emissive and Opacity Mask ā and instantly get hotābarrel and stealthāmode effects on your own meshes, no extra setup, no hacks, no pain 
While working on the v6 docs I finally reached one of the most important parts for many of you: āHow to add a new firearmā.
Thanks to the current architecture of RPG Engine ā modular components, unified data pipeline, editor assistants ā this guide practically wrote itself. The whole process of creating a new gun is now broken down into clear, repeatable steps: from Data Assets and ammo setup to VFX, sounds and state integration.
Iām attaching the new documentation file for firearms creation. If you were waiting for a stepābyāstep āadd a new weapon like a proā guide, this is exactly it ā plug it into your workflow and start expanding your arsenal right away.

RPG Engine 6.8.1 is now available!
In this update, I reworked the process of adding a new passenger seat to a vehicle, and itās now much easier and more convenient to set up. Iām also almost done with the documentation, so that part is coming together really nicely.
P.S. Iām also working on my website, where all the documentation will be collected in one place soon.
Hey everyone! 
Right now Iām working on the how-to-add-building-piece.md guide 
And the most observant of you might notice a little hint about whatās planned for one of the upcoming updates 
Spoiler: weāll be adding objects that can produce food 
Hey everyone!
A new documentation tutorial is now available: How to Add a Building Piece
If youāre working with the building system, this guide should make the setup process much easier.
Hope it helps! 
Friends, Iāve finally finished the documentation work ā and honestly, it wasnāt easy
In the near future, it will appear on my website, and Iāll give you full access to it.
For now, Iām not planning to connect the RAG system to it yet, but that is definitely part of the near-future plans as well.
Hello everyone! 
I havenāt been sitting idle lately, and during this time I built a website where you can now use the RPG Engine documentation much more comfortably, without having to deal with one huge PDF file like before.
I literally finished working on the site just a couple of minutes ago, so Iām sharing it with you right away 
The website will keep growing and updating alongside the project, and Iām also thinking about adding a Latest Updates / Patch Notes section in the future 
For now, Iām just really happy to present a much more convenient place to work with the RPG Engine documentation
And a little secret 
ā more niche versions of the project are also being prepared in parallel for different genres, including shooter, survival, and adventure. These are planned as more affordable alternatives to the flagship RPG Engine version. 
A lot is happening behind the scenes right now, and I truly appreciate your support 
RPG Engine V6.8.3
Fixed an issue where, after the server loaded a save in multiplayer, other players could no longer join the session.
Quick update! 
Iāve just added a mobile-friendly version of the docs website, so reading RPG Engine documentation on your phone or tablet should now be much more comfortable.
If you notice any layout issues on your device, feel free to send feedback and screenshots
RPG Engine V6.10.1 is coming soon. This update completely overhauls the save system with a focus on how the project behaves in a Shipped Unreal Engine build, and fixes all known save-related issues.
The save file creation pipeline has also been redesigned from the ground up: each save is now a clearly structured header that can be reliably parsed for metadata, and every save slot has its own GUID.
This is a major architectural update that makes RPG Engine even cleaner, more robust, and more correct from an engineering point of view.
The next major update will focus on Network Emulation and improving how the project behaves under real network conditions. As part of this update, the Character States system will be refined and expanded.
Not every state should require full server-side validation before activation. Some states can be activated locally first, while the server remains the authoritative source for states that truly affect gameplay-critical logic.
We are currently working on reducing client-side delay when activating states, with the goal of making the system feel more responsive while still preserving clean multiplayer architecture.
Iām working on a new state prediction layer for RPG Engine.
Every multiplayer game fights the same issue: players want instant feedback, while the server must stay authoritative and cheat-proof. In the upcoming update Iām adding local prediction for character states: the client can immediately fire lightweight visual effects (movement, animation, UI) via ApplyLocalPredictionEffects, while the server either confirms or rolls back the predicted state through a unified RollbackPredictedState flow if validation fails.
The result is a much more responsive feel on the client, without sacrificing a clean server-authoritative architecture or introducing one-off hacks for each gameplay mechanic.
