I would love to learn how to effortlessly print text on a screen, play one animation, or move a cube. Thing is, I’m not willing to use UE 5 as so many assets are not updated to that engine. I’ve tried to learn BP, but it never made sense- so I took a break and came back to it. I just want to learn basic code, but where can I go to just grasp the tiny basics?
Hiya @Nerdzmasterz!
Thing is, nearly all of the tutorials will be applicable to both UE4 and UE5. The biggest differences come in the form of Nanite and Lumen, which are highly advanced. If you’re just starting out, you can use UE4.27 with almost any of the tutorials we have here on the site, with minor differences in the application. You can’t go wrong with starter tutorials on youtube, either. The biggest thing is getting out there and getting your feet wet!
I personally suggest this one for either 5 or 4.27. Don’t forget, keep the things you create so that if you forget how to do something, you can load up an old project and take a look! This is called your “codebase”.
