Unreal Engine 4.22 Released!

Am I the only one bummed by the fact that Epic goes to GDC each year to show off some cool new stuff only for it to then take like six months before the release with like 50% of the originally presented features?

Is there a way to hide this thing in the bottom right corner of the viewport? I see its usefulness in some cases, but for the most time (for me at least) it’s just unnecessary extra clutter on the UI and it makes harder to take screenshots of the viewport (highres screenshot isn’t always usable).

I don’t really care about new features anymore because since 4.19 there isn’t anything I could use. I would rather see work on bug fixes for a while. There are a lot of bugs that have been open for a long time and I think Epic should focus on fixing them rather than implementing esoteric features

I agree, this is how I feel about every software that I use. However, few companies are run with the intent to give a ■■■■ what you and I want. I’m not into gambling, so I don’t even bother to hope for this company to work like that. The video game industry is a shark tank, and these particular sharks are very kill orientated.

Hi everyone, support for 64integer variable has been added for Blueprints, but they have limited use: cannot convert them to a string, text or to the normal integer (32 integer i think). Will this variable eventually have the same options as other variables?

Wow! So many updates and new features!! Have anyone already tried it?

Something to consider… Hundreds of bugs were fixed with 4.22… They are adding features AND fixing bugs. See this for details on bugs fixed in 4.22: Unreal Engine Issues and Bug Tracker (Search Results)

I’m getting the exact same assert when debugging from Xcode using 4.22.3. Was this reported already?

Just to be safe you should report it too. I am not 100% sure if I ever did bug report from that.

Wonderful!

Is there any documentation about how to implement this?

skate to where the puck is going, not where it is

Hey everyone, how okay is 4.22.3 to use at this date 8/1/2019? I teach game desgn using it and our IT dept. at the university is asking if 4.22.3 is the version to install and use this school year. They can’t keep updating it during the school year on all the PCs so whatever vers. gets installed now would be it through spring 2020. I tested the Shooter Game with 4.22.3 and that seems to work ok.
Any issues with use of 4.22.3 for VR?

Yeah, usually you should use the latest stable release. If 4.23 wouldn’t be released yet, 4.22 is your version.
Any minor issues in given engine release shouldn’t bother you if you’re not publishing product on market.

@Zontar In 4.22.3 for VR:

Just was able to successfully upgrade the project from 4.21 to 4.22.3 including upgrades to plugins (Gamesparks, OceanPlugin…)
