Unreal Engine 4.23 Preview

Edit2: ignore this post. Just tested again and it works fine. No idea what went wrong in the first place.

Just tested prev 6 and it seems like <Fixed! UE-77549 Mobile Multi-View 4.23 preview regression> is not fixed.
Still a black screen when building projects for Quest and mobile-multiview is enabled. Can anyone confirm?

Edit: strange thing is - it fails for me for a brand new project while a previous tested 4.23 project just works nice with MobileMultiview… must be something at my end…

Worked for me. Do you have “Mobile HDR” enabled? Those two settings are (and always have been faik) incompatible

Hi, I would like to have some infos about the “experimental layer system” for landscape. I tryied to test it but don’t understand how it’s supposed to work.

Is there anything useful for mobile devices?

Virtual Texturing will be a huge performance boost for mobile devices and will ship in 4.23 as a Beta Version. But mobile isnt supportet in the 4.23 release i think. But in the future this will be a very great tool.

I found that if you’re using virtual textures and try to use hlod, if the mesh is out of view or far away often the textures aren’t even baked.

I would really love to know as well. According to the road map they’ve included ARCore 1.7 for the 4.23 release. But we really need ARCore 1.10 if we want to have correctly functioning metallic reflections on Android devices. Currently I’m stuck with a setup where it’s only reflecting from one angle, the rest gets black. If I’m wrong with the reflections please pin point me to the right direction. It works well on iOS with ARKit.

I can’t cast to AnimBP class. My created AnimBPs casting nodes not found in searching results.
Engine 4.23 preview 6

Unreal Engine 4.23 error when set pivot and move.

Ouch… I just discovered Epic pretty much neutered the cinematic camera depth of field settings since they changed the DOF system. :frowning:
Manually focusing depth is now extremely tedious in sequences

Any information on this fixed bug? Now it says passthough is deprecated use “getCameraImage” But I can’t find getCameraImage.
Fixed!
UE-75974 ARKit - Camera passthrough is skewed (squashed)

This has been planned and mentioned for some time. DOF has now been reduced to just one high-quality cinematic method for Desktop and Console platforms and Mobile requires Gaussian DOF.

While Cinematic DOF method can be done to some degree in a post process volume, the Cine Camera should be used for full DOF control.

Cannot cast to AnimBP - node not found!

AddUniqueDynamic more Duplicated!!!

Initialization of an object creates 3-5 copies of the link for.
Please correct the logic of the unique delegate binding. Duplicated if you open an object written in C ++. The game behaves normally.

Hello,
where can i download this fantastic **Helicopter **in your Video?

The blueprint function is Get AR Camera Image. It returns an AR Texture.
A quick and dirty way to do what I needed it to do was create a texture parameter and shove it in there each time I needed an update.

I haven’t seen anything on this, but it looks like, for at least mobile, the packaged size is ~200mb larger. I tested a simple AR Project and compiled for Android in 4.21.2 and then upgraded said project to 4.23p6. The output APK was 170mb for 4.21.2 and 377mb for 4.23p6.
Saw a similar result with an iPhone ipa.

In 4.23p6 the size of screen is bigger than screen then running in shipping (or anything outside editor). In PIE all is ok, in standalone all is ok. But in shipping, screen is bigger than monitor and can not switch to windowed mode either (in fact it is surely switching but the window is still bigger than screen). Easy to reproduce, on only have to create an empty project, add UMG with anything in corners and you’ll see the problem. (I searched the bug databased, did not found it).

UPDATE!

We have just released Preview 7 for 4.23! Thank you for your continued help in testing the 4.23 build before its official release. As a reminder, the Preview builds are for testing only, and should not be used for the active development of your project.

For a list of known issues affecting this latest preview, please follow the links provided on the original post in this thread.

Much thanks for the update. I’m gonna see if I can get a beta of my game working on preview 7 today. Really looking forward to any GI improvements that can make it in.
